Exploration of novel chemical space: synthesis and in vitro evaluation of N-functionalized tertiary sulfonimidamides (2018)
Journal Article

An unprecedented set of structurally diverse sulfonimidamides (47 compounds) has been prepared by various N‐functionalization reactions of tertiary =NH sulfonimidamide 2 aa. These N‐functionalization reactions of model compound 2 aa include arylation...

A New, Practical One-Pot Synthesis of Unprotected Sulfonimidamides by Transfer of Electrophilic NH to Sulfinamides (2017)
Journal Article

Unprotected tertiary sulfonimidamides have been prepared in good to excellent yields in a one?pot transformation from tertiary sulfinamides through NH transfer. The reaction is mediated by commercially available (diacetoxyiodo)benzene and ammonium ca...

Asymmetric Synthesis of Pyrrolidine-Containing Chemical Scaffolds via Tsuji–Trost Allylation of N-tert-Butanesulfinyl Imines (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim A simple and efficient asymmetric synthesis of novel sp 3 -rich pyrrolidine chemical scaffolds over five steps starting from simple ketones is described. Key steps involve the use of tert-butanesul... Read More about Asymmetric Synthesis of Pyrrolidine-Containing Chemical Scaffolds via Tsuji–Trost Allylation of N-tert-Butanesulfinyl Imines.

Versatile C(sp2)−C(sp3) Ligand Couplings of Sulfoxides for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Diarylalkanes (2016)
Journal Article

The reaction of chiral (hetero)aryl benzyl sulfoxides with Grignard reagents affords enantiomerically pure diarylalkanes in up to 98% yield and greater than 99.5% enantiomeric excess. This ligand coupling reaction is tolerant to multiple substitution... Read More about Versatile C(sp2)−C(sp3) Ligand Couplings of Sulfoxides for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Diarylalkanes.

Sigmatropic Rearrangement of Vinyl Aziridines: Expedient Synthesis of Cyclic Sulfoximines from Chiral Sulfinimines (2016)
Journal Article

A novel rearrangement of 2-vinyl aziridine 2-carboxylates to unusual chiral cyclic sulfoximines is described herein. The method allows the synthesis of substituted cyclic sulfoximines in high yields with complete stereocontrol, displaying a wide sub...

A facile and green route to terpene derived acrylate and methacrylate monomers and simple free radical polymerisation to yield new renewable polymers and coatings (2016)
Journal Article

We present new acrylic monomers derived directly from abundant naturally available terpenes via a facile, green and catalytic approach. These monomers can be polymerised to create new polymers with a wide range of mechanical properties that positions...

Facile access to a heterocyclic, sp3-rich chemical scaffold via a tandem condensation/intramolecular nitrone–alkene [3+2] cycloaddition strategy (2015)
Journal Article

A heterocyclic, sp3-rich chemical scaffold was synthesised in just 6 steps via a highly regio- and diastereo-selective tandem nitrone formation/intramolecular nitrone–alkene [3+2] cycloaddition reaction. A library of 543 lead-like compounds based on...
