Lauren Brown and Mikayo Hayashi: Communication in the European Journal of Organic Chemistry
Congratulations to Lauren Brown, Mikayo Hayashi and Professor John Porco on their recent Communication in the European Journal of Organic Chemistry entitled “Asymmetric Dearomatization/ Cyclization Enables Access to Novel Chemotypes.” Abstract: Enantioenriched, polycyclic compounds were obtained from a simple acylphloroglucinol scaffold. Highly enantioselective dearomatization was accomplished using a Trost ligand palladium(0) complex. A computational DFT […]
