Electrochemical Synthesis of Allylic Amines from Terminal Alkenes and Secondary Amines @Amines #Electrochemistry Wickens Group Zach Wickens pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Kai and Nathan's general synthesis of biheteroaryls from heteroaryl halides and heteroaryl triflates is now online at J. Am. Chem. Soc. ! Check it out if you like long walks on the beach, biheteroaryl compounds, and multimetallic catalysis. doi.org/10.1021/jacs.1…

You’ve seen aziridination using our electrochemical dication pool strategy. Now check out this unexpected Z-selective allylic amination process that couples amines and alkenes! Congrats djwang and Karina! bit.ly/3GQGEWX

Want to replace a C–H bond with an oxidatively sensitive coupling partner? Marco Lopez/Josh Buss developed a C–H chlorination/substitution method to achieve this goal. UW-Madison Chemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

I am happy to share our most recent work harnessing the photoactive properties of Cu(II) is out now in Nature Chemistry! nature.com/articles/s4155…

what better way to welcome our new postdoc and first years to Wisconsin winters than a walk on the frozen lake!

In honor of the #WomenInScience day, we wanted to highlight the scientific contributions of the women in the group with a short thread... Every one of our papers to date has had a woman as either first or co-first author!

Our second paper of 2022, published on Twosday 2/22/2022, is about double stereodifferentiation in dual catalytic [2+2] photocycloadditions, with two great collaborators (Toste Group and Christine Le) pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Week of many accomplishments for the Wickens group! Congrats Joe for passing his second year exam, Minji Kim for passing her third year research proposal, and @alyahchmiel for giving a great departmental supergroup presentation!

Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, banana bond! Our work by Daniel and Ben, in collaboration with JNJInnovative Medicine on accessing arylated strained rings is now accepted in Angewandte Chemie! doi.org/10.1002/anie.2…

Heading to ACS Chicago? Come check out the Wickens group!

Excited to share our latest hydrocarboxylation project! Check it out ⬇️

Oliver and Alyah Chmiel introduce an alcohol deletion protocol using formate and light! But this time, potent reductants weren’t enough. We had to work out how to accelerate fragmentation after reduction. Spoiler alert: acidic promoters were key! rb.gy/nt6ruo

Time to make more triangles! We introduce our new diastereoselective cyclopropanation protocol using the electrochemical dication pool strategy. Check out all the cool cyclopropanes you can now access at bit.ly/40gdkCV!

The time has come 😔 As we say goodbye for now to our Steezy Trev profile picture, we want to thank fans with this exclusive t-shirt. RT and like for your chance to win one! #DUUUVAL

Check out my last major project from grad school!! Amazing to work with Céline and superstar undergrad Casey, who had major contributions early in the project. My favorite part was discovering that proton balance is vital for controlling the reactivity of alkenyl sulfonium salts!

So happy to share that our work using iron(III) salts and visible light to enable cross-nucleophile coupling reactions is out now! Working with Sam, Tehshik Yoon, and our collaborators at Pfizer, Mark and Scott Bagley, has been an absolute pleasure. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Check out our new hydrocarboxylation story! We found our previous system was ineffective for challenging unactivated alkenes but, using a mechanistically-guided approach, we develop a new catalytic system that unlocks this substrate class. Out in J. Am. Chem. Soc. bit.ly/42OHfn4
