Here's something you don't see everyday:
FOUR generations of chemistry research assembled together @chemistryatuvic during @LaurelSchafer's recent visit as a Distinguished Woman Scholar, from Dave Berg, to Laurel, to me, to the current group!
(UGs were all at a conference)

[Tommy Keenan @Tommy82752392]

Check out our preprint for the big project of my PhD on stable precatalysts for assymetric alkylations!
Big thanks to everyone involved!

Looking for an operationally simple and reliable procedure for Pd-cat asymmetric allylic alkylation?
Check out our new preprint now, a collaboration between @arseniyadis and @LeitchLab.
Well done @Tommy82752392
and @Jingjun_H for your massive work!

Hey peeps,
Check out our preprint with the @LeitchLab and @Servier. Huge kudos go to Jingjun (@Jingjun_H), Tommy (@Tommy82752392) & Francois (@FrichardChem) for their relentless efforts.
These precats are absolutely fabulous!

Check out the first preprint from the collab between us and @arseniyadis on a new class of Pd(0) precats for asymmetric allylic alkylation! Led by @Jingjun_H
and @Tommy82752392, these are the 1st precats w/Trost ligands. Beautiful structures and catalysis! https://t.co/nfPpzJyvR9

Some new #preprint papers out from the Leitch lab post #CCCE2021! First up is work by @greggaube and Nahia Pipaon on Pd-catalyzed borylation via C-O bond activation of alkenyl carboxylates, building on prior work on oxidative addition and Suzuki coupling:

Another new #preprint from the Leitch lab: Kushal Dhake and Kyla Woelk have developed a divergent approach to azabicyclohexanes and cyclobutenyl amines from bicyclobutanes. We're really excited to explore these scaffolds for applications in med chem!

So happy to share this news: our paper is published on ACS Catalysis!! This is a wonderful Pd(0) precatalst for diverse cross-coupling reactions.
Thanks for all your help and support!
