Merging Photoredox with 1,2-Metallate Rearrangements: The Photochemical Alkylation of Vinyl Boronate Complexes (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 American Chemical Society. Vinyl boronates react with electron-deficient alkyl iodides in the presence of visible light to give boronic esters in which two new C-C bonds have been created. The reaction occurs by radical addition of an electron... Read More about Merging Photoredox with 1,2-Metallate Rearrangements: The Photochemical Alkylation of Vinyl Boronate Complexes.

Visible-light excitation of iminium ions enables the enantioselective catalytic ?-alkylation of enals (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Macmillan Publishers Limited, part of Springer Nature. All rights reserved. Chiral iminium ions - generated upon condensation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and amine catalysts - are used extensively by chemists to make chiral molecules in enant...
