Congrats to Dr. Landge and the rest of the team for their work on revisiting our previous diarylation of allylamines to expand the scope to selective monoarylation.
NEW PAPER: OXIDANTS HAPPEN (TO BENZYLAMINES)
August 31, 2021
Congrats to Dr. Pratibha Chand-Thakuri on nudging our work on benzylamine ortho-halogenation over the finish line. Using more harsh oxidizing conditions, benzylamines can be converted into ortho-chlorinated and ortho-brominated products, giving the free amine products which are available for further use or derivatization.

Congrats to Vinod and the rest of the team on an excellent paper for this really cool reaction where beta-alkyl cinnamylamines can undergo 3,3'-diarylation through a controlled chain walking event. The mechanism is explored to clearly show insertion, selective beta-hydride elimination, 2nd insertion, 2nd selective beta-hydride elimination, giving a Z-selective product.
