Journal Article
Beddoe, R. H., Andrews, K. G., Magné, V., Cuthbertson, J. D., Saska, J., Shannon-Little, A. L., …Denton, R. M. (2019). Redox-neutral organocatalytic Mitsunobu reactions. Science, 365(6456), 910-914. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aax3353

Nucleophilic substitution reactions of alcohols are amongst the most fundamental and strategically important transformations in organic chemistry. For over half a century these reactions have been achieved using stoichiometric, and often hazardous, r... Read More about Redox-neutral organocatalytic Mitsunobu reactions.

Synthesis of air‐stable, odorless thiophenol surrogates via Ni‐Catalyzed C−S cross‐coupling (2019)
Journal Article
Magné, V., & Ball, L. T. (2019). Synthesis of air‐stable, odorless thiophenol surrogates via Ni‐Catalyzed C−S cross‐coupling. Chemistry - A European Journal, 25(37), 8903-8910. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201901874

Thiophenols are versatile synthetic intermediates whose practical appeal is marred by their air sensitivity, toxicity and extreme malodor. Herein we report an efficient catalytic method for the preparation of S-aryl isothiouronium salts, and demonstr...
