This divergent cross coupling paper in #JACS from @reiswoman.bsky.social Reisman lab @CalTech with the Sigman lab @ Utah with #Amgen is really neat
Differential coupling products from anhydrides - nice #ChemCollabs work everyone
Ni-Catalyzed Enantioselective Desymmetrization: Development of Divergent Acyl and Decarbonylative Cross-Coupling Reactions
Ni-catalyzed asymmetric reductive cross-coupling reactions provide rapid and modular access to enantioenriched building blocks from simple electrophile precursors. Reductive coupling reactions that ca...

A metal-free strategy to construct fluoroalkyl–olefin linkages using fluoroalkanes
We present a metal-free strategy to access fluoroalkyl–olefin linkages from fluoroalkane precursors and vinyl-pinacol boronic ester (BPin) reagents. This reaction sequence is templated by the boron re...

Starting off 2025 pretty well - new #ChemCollabs paper about to hit #ChemRxiv with a pretty cool new reaction under optimization
And some neat chemistry on [REDACTED] project
And the @organicdivision.org ORGN program for #ACSSpring2025 is going to be excellent!

Presenting some of my favorite #PfizerChemistry papers from 2024
Next up is a multi-center #ChemCollabs from our Groton and La Jolla labs with @shenvi.bsky.social, the Baran lab and #Biogen out in @science.org forming tertiary sp3 centers from RAEs or olefins
Carbon quaternization of redox active esters and olefins by decarboxylative coupling
The synthesis of quaternary carbons often requires numerous steps and complex conditions or harsh reagents that act on heavily engineered substrates. This is largely a consequence of conventional pola...

4a/ #12DaysofPapers #ChemSky. This 2024 favorite is a #PfizerChemistry collab with the Weix (Wisconsin) and Sigman (Utah) labs towards computationally designed ligands for Ni-catalyzed cross electrophile coupling. Improvements in selectivity up to 300% #ChemCollabs
Computational Methods Enable the Prediction of Improved Catalysts for Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Electrophile Coupling
Cross-electrophile coupling has emerged as an attractive and efficient method for the synthesis of C(sp2)–C(sp3) bonds. These reactions are most often catalyzed by nickel complexes of nitrogenous liga...
