Journal Article
Groves, A., Sun, J., Parke, H. R. I., Callingham, M., Argent, S. P., Taylor, L. J., & Lam, H. W. (2020). Catalytic enantioselective arylative cyclizations of alkynyl 1,3-diketones by 1,4-rhodium(i) migration. Chemical Science, 11(10), 2759–2764. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9sc06309a

The enantioselective synthesis of densely functionalized polycarbocycles by the rhodium(I)-catalyzed reaction of arylboronic acids with 1,3-diketones is described. The key step in these desymmetrizing domino addition–cyclization reactions is an alken...

Remote Nucleophilic Allylation by Allylrhodium Chain Walking (2018)
Journal Article
Martínez, J. I., Groves, A., Martinez, J. I., Smith, J. J., & Lam, H. W. (2018). Remote Nucleophilic Allylation by Allylrhodium Chain Walking. Chemistry - A European Journal, 24(51), 13432-13436. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201803574

Metal migration through a carbon chain is a versatile method for achieving remote functionalization. However, almost all known examples involve the overall net migration of alkylmetal species. Here, we report that allylrhodium species obtained from h... Read More about Remote Nucleophilic Allylation by Allylrhodium Chain Walking.
