Methods for iron-catalyzed cross coupling of aryl and vinyl electrophiles are evaluated in this #ScienceOfSynthesis review by Rob Nolla-Saltiel (@NollaRob) and Robin Bedford (@bedcatalysis)( (Ed. N. Yoshikai @ny_1978).

Shout out to Zach that started this project! To @steffischiele and @JanaAlpin that joined us during their dual MSc and did a fantastic job! And to Yasuyo-san and Nambo-san for all their support from Japan. Dream team at @cathleencrudden's lab!
Who would have thought? Acidic protons and Grignard reagents are compatibl, to yield enantiospecific cross-coupling! @cmc_lab we report the first example of enantioenriched cyclic sulfones as coupling partners in Ni-catalyzed Kumada. https://t.co/fQXU8toVWc
That's a wrap for this round of defenses! @JanaAlpin, @Dianne2Seohyun and @steffischiele; you're all rock stars!! Wish we could all celebrate in person. Best wishes for your next steps ❤️❤️
2/3 defenses done! Congrats to @JanaAlpin who defended her MSc last week, and @Dianne2Seohyun who defended her PhD this afternoon. One more to go! You got this @steffischiele!!
Blast from the past, from my PhD days with @Kaysresearch@atinageer @william_lewis_1 @ChemistryUoN! Our article detailing the coordination of PCA/PDCA to [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 is out! @MDPIOpenAccess https://t.co/eOmsnl3tpn Big shout out to Helen that started this project!
Very proud of our catalysis-team students! If you are interested in the synthesis and use of sulfones (and you should!), come and give them a visit! #CSC2023@AaronErlich@a_m_constable Jana Alpin and Stefanie Schiele
We're gearing up for the annual CSC conference happening in Vancouver from June 4th-8th. As part of the conference, we're hosting a mixer on June 5th from 6-8pm at the Convention Centre in room 224. Come say hi and meet our awesome group of researchers!
