Expedient synthesis of an atypical oxazolidinone compound library (2016)
Journal Article
Cully, S. J., Storr, T. E., Rawling, M. J., Abeysena, I. R., Hamza, D., Jones, G., …Stockman, R. A. (2016). Expedient synthesis of an atypical oxazolidinone compound library. Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry, 24(21), 5249-5257. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bmc.2016.08.046

In order to address the current downturn in the drug discovery pipeline, initiatives are being undertaken to synthesise screening libraries of sp3-rich, low molecular weight compounds. As part of the European Lead Factory initiative, the synthesis an... Read More about Expedient synthesis of an atypical oxazolidinone compound library.

Versatile C(sp2)−C(sp3) Ligand Couplings of Sulfoxides for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Diarylalkanes (2016)
Journal Article
Dean, W. M., Mindaugas, Š., Storr, T. E., Lewis, W., & Stockman, R. A. (2016). Versatile C(sp2)−C(sp3) Ligand Couplings of Sulfoxides for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Diarylalkanes. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 55(34), 10013-10016. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201602264

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
Moragas, T., Liffey, R. M., Regentova, D., Ward, J., Dutton, J., Lewis, W., …Stockman, R. A. (2016). Sigmatropic Rearrangement of Vinyl Aziridines: Expedient Synthesis of Cyclic Sulfoximines from Chiral Sulfinimines. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 55(34), 10047-10051. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201604188

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
Sainz, M. F., Souto, J. A., Regentova, D., Johansson, M. K. G., Timhagen, S. T., Irvine, D. J., …Howdle, S. M. (2016). A facile and green route to terpene derived acrylate and methacrylate monomers and simple free radical polymerisation to yield new renewable polymers and coatings. Polymer Chemistry, 7(16), 2882-2887. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6py00357e

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...
