Donohoe Group

We are an organic chemistry group @OxfordChemistry focused on developing new synthetic methodologies and employing them to make natural products | Student run

[Donohoe Group @DonohoeGroup]

Check out our latest paper in @ACSCatalysis describing recent advances in mild and room temperature hydrogen borrowing alkylation reactions, https://t.co/afMGxGbGs3
Congratulations to Elliot and @MDSgroup_Oxford and thanks to @OxfordSynthesis

[Roly Armstrong @r_armstrong_lab]

Come and join us! We have a 4-year #fundedPhD studentship in organic synthesis available in my lab
@ChemistryNCL. The project will explore new catalytic reactions of organosodium reagents!

We have a postdoc position available from 1st January 2025, for up to three years. Check out the details via this link and come and join us! https://t.co/a8G6x3cqOX @OxfordChemistry @OxfordSynthesis

[Donohoe Group @DonohoeGroup]

Many congratulations to Teddy on completion of his first total synthesis- 7 contiguous chiral centres and two carbocyclic rings is quite a challenge! @OxfordChemistry @OxfordSynthesis

[Donohoe Group @DonohoeGroup]

Congratulations to Dana and Megan on their latest HFIP paper on the synthesis of lactones, out now in @ChemCommun https://t.co/K02UVzKmf4
