Who knows when the Kulinkovich reaction was first published?🕰️🤔 If you don’t remember the year of publication, just follow the link to discover it ➡️ https://t.co/AF9tuDPyMM
Share with us your comments on this amazing #SYNFACTClassic!
🕰️ In 1995, Overman and MacMillan (@dmac68, @MacMillan_Lab) synthesized a member of the eunicellin #diterpene family, (-)-7-deaceoxyalcyonin acetate, for the first time! Such amazing and challenging research!

Look back 44 years ago!🕰️
Back then, the first method to sequence #DNA was presented by Sanger and Coulson. Today, #SangerSequencing remains an important alternative to next-generation methods used to decode DNA sequences. Enjoy this #SYNFACTClassic➡️ https://t.co/0MQWTnW8SE
👨🔬 In 1993, David A. Evans disclosed a highly #enantioselective Diels–Alder reaction employing copper(II)-catalysts and BOX ligands with high yields & excellent enantioselectivities.

Check out our new #SYNFACTClassic about the synthesis of (+)-biotin, a vitamin involved in several biological processes including acetyl-CoA carboxylase mediated #carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA. It was first reported in 1982 ➡️ https://t.co/SszvCmdwGR @roche_schweiz
R. Y. Tsien and co-workers from @UCBerkeley greatly contributed to the development of fluorescent Ca2+ sensors in 1985, which are widely used in biological research nowadays.

Check out the latest #SYNFACTClassic by G. Cahiez about iron(III)-catalysis highlighted by @MBlknhl ! Always a pleasure to see nice chemistry summarized in simple graphics!
🕰️In 1998, G. Cahiez and H. Avedissian from @Escom_Chimie were able to improve the cross-coupling between alkenyl halides and Grignard reagents by using Fe3 as catalyst.🔬

#Cubane was first synthesized by Eaton & Cole at @UChiChemistry in 1964. It was considered relevant from an academic point of view only but nowadays, the molecule and its derivatives have found several applications in chemistry.☝️

It's time for another #SYNFACTClassic!🎉
In 1982, K. C. Nicolaou and co-workers reported the biomimetic synthesis of the endiandric acids. ➡️ https://t.co/wcAswwmde6 👏
Erick Carreira and Pultar highlighted their great achievement in SYNFACTS.😊

#SYNFACTClassic: Who published the first example of asymmetric (nonenzymatic) (organo)catalysis? Georg Bredig from @ETH_en over 100 years ago (1912)!😮
Four decades later, Pacejus from @unirostock. 🙌

In 1991, Eric Jacobsen (@JacobsenGroup from @HarvardCCB) reported the first highly enantioselective method for the #epoxidation of nonactivated #alkenes. The key to his success was the optimization of the salen ligand size! 😮

Interested in protein design? The 'directed evolution' discovered by @francesarnold in 1993 relies on the accumulation of positive mutations over generations of enzymes through sequential rounds of random #mutagenesis. Check out the #SynfactClassic: https://t.co/2J6w01PgZb
🔝 This #SynfactClassic describes the first transition-metal-catalyzed #crosscoupling using aryl- and benzylzinc reagents with substituted aryl halides, reported by Ei-ichi Negishi. 🕰️ Take a trip back in time with us: https://t.co/Y5CIT8SpPY @PurdueChemistry
As the 1990s ended, Stephen Buchwald described the discovery of JohnPhos, a bulky biaryl ligand for amination and #Suzukicoupling. His work is timeless and set the stage for widespread adoption of Buchwald ligands. 🕰️ https://t.co/QS64vW0LhR @BuchwildGroup
