Kathleen travels to Germany to carry out an internship in collaboration with our partners at Bayer AG CropScience (Germany).
Our paper entitled "Intercepting Ketone α‑Arylation Intermediates in the DalPhos/NiCatalyzed Synthesis of Decorated Benzofurans and NH-Indoles" appears inÌýACS CatalysisÌý- congrats to Josh!
November 2024
Kathleen visitsÌýMerckÌý(Cambridge MA) to work on a collaboration regarding the implementation of nickel catalysis in industrial cross-couplings.
Our paper entitled "Nickel-Catalyzed O-Arylation of N-Protected Amino Alcohols with (Hetero)aryl Chlorides" appears inÌýChem. Eur. J.ÌýWell done Kathleen, Emily, and Erika!
Mark is admitted as a Fellow to the Royal Society of Canada.
Congrats to Mike and Peter for winning Department of Chemistry research awards - well done!
August 2024
The group welcomes Erika Elliott (from Western University) and Emily Jackson (from the University of Victoria) as MSc students!
Mark gives an interview with ChemistryWorld.com regarding palladium versus nickel in cross-coupling chemistry.
July 2024
Josh presents at theÌýGordon Research Seminar and Conference on Organic Reactions and Processes, at Bryant College, Smithfield, Rhode Island, USA.
May 2024
Nick takes up a position of Scientist-I, Chemical Sciences Division at Paraza Pharma Inc. (Montreal, Canada). Congrats!
April 2024
Our invitedÌýPerspectiveÌýarticle summarizing our DalPhos/Ni chemistry to date entitled "The Development of Cage Phosphine ‘DalPhos’ Ligands to Enable Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Couplings of (Hetero)aryl Electrophiles" is accepted toÌýChemical Science.
Nick successfully defends his PhD - well done and congrats!
