🚨RADICAL RETHINK: STEREORETENTIVE CROSS COUPLING UNLOCKED🚨 Today in ChemRxiv (chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…) the first method for stereoretentive radical cross-coupling is disclosed. No fancy ligands or redox needed—just a Ni-diazene twist. 120 years after Gomberg, a new chapter

Hot Off the Press!!🚨 Excited to share our lab's first publication in Angewandte Chemie. "PCET Photodecarboxylation for SN2’-Type Alkylation of gem- Dichlorocyclobutenones" is now online! @MoE and IISER Thiruvananthapuram School of Chemistry IISER TVM support and funding. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

🚨 We are thrilled to share that our group member, Amit Pal, attended OMCOS22 at Kyoto University, Japan 🇯🇵! He presented his poster titled "Heavier Dihydropyridine (DHP) Chalcogenol Esters in Hydrothio(seleno)carbonylation Enabled by Metallaphotoredox Catalysis."

Atom-swapping in a saturated heterocycle? We report a photocatalytic transmutation strategy in nature that exchanges O within an oxetane for N, S, C & even dual atoms, simplifying access to a variety of non-aromatic cyclic pharmacophores & enabling late-stage editing of complex
