Excited to share our latest work on chemical permutation, now published in @Nature! Using photochemical conditions, we've developed a method to selectively and predictably transform the structures of thiazoles, isothiazoles, and other azole systems.

Finally, RADICAL CROSS COUPLING without the exogenous REDOX. We disclose in @ChemRxiv (https://t.co/FYy6i1J7p9) a broadly general platform for achieving transformations that normally required excess metallic or chemical reducing agents or photochemical setups (and their requisite catalysts) or potentiostats for electrochemistry. Now, such transformations can be accomplished with the same ease that one conducts a Suzuki coupling. You can scale up (its homogeneous) or scale down (use cheap parallel screening plates). Moisture is tolerated and base metal catalysis is used. As the best engineers like to say, "The best part is no part". Now, chemists have the option to remove the redox part from radical couplings.

Quick Summary: Sulfonyl hydrazides are disclosed as versatile radical precursors as exemplified with seven new C–C bond forming, redox-neutral cross-couplings with: (1) activated olefins, (2) alkyl halides, (3) redox active esters, (4) aryl halides, (5) alkenyl halides, (6) alkynyl halides, and (7) a trifluoromethylating reagent to forge C(sp3)-C(sp3), C(sp3)-C(sp2), and C(sp3)-C(sp) bonds. Sulfonyl hydrazides are stable and usually crystalline substances that can be accessed in a variety of ways including transiently from hydrazones to achieve a net reductive arylation of carbonyl compounds. Exogenous redox (chemical, photo/electrochemical) additives are not necessary as these functional groups serve the dual role of radical precursor and electron donor. The operational simplicity (homogeneous, water tolerant, dump-and-stir) and practicality of the method are demonstrated as well as applications to streamlining synthesis and mild late-stage functionalization.

한 강 Han Kang – awarded the 2024 #NobelPrize in Literature – was born in 1970 in the South Korean city of Gwangju before, at the age of nine, moving with her family to Seoul. She comes from a literary background, her father being a reputed novelist. Alongside her writing, she has also devoted herself to art and music, which is reflected throughout her entire literary production.

Ever had a radical reaction not work when it ‘should’?

Mismatched *radical polarity* may be the issue. We often only look at BDE & redox (thermodynamics), but forget polarity (kinetics).

Jake, Andrew, & I are excited to share this new resource to help!

Delighted to share our total synthesis of the purported structure of merremoside G and H2. The key coupling step doesn't require any activation, making pentasaccharide structure in much milder conditions. Check out here! https://t.co/sdrZfeJgAM

I am sad to report that Prof. Hee-Yoon Lee at KAIST passed away on Thursday (Jan 26, 2023). His leading research in the field of natural product total synthesis and his service to the (Korean and beyond) chemical society will always be remembered.
