Our work on fluorinated radicals is now out in @angew_chem!š.We have spiced up our review with a computational analysis aiming at better understanding and predicting their reactivity. Congrats to the whole team! I am grateful to @KatayevL and Ken Houk for their support!.@snsf_ch.
Interested in Fluorinated Radicals? Check out our efforts with Ken Houk @angew_chem towards understanding their reactivity with arenes via DFT-analysis and literature review. Congratsš @AJF_Chem & @grahul360! @DCBPunibern @uclachem @snsf_ch #OpenAccess

The final version of our paper is available, and open access!.If you are interested in radical decarboxylative approaches or small rings, please have a look. @snsf_ch @KatayevL @pushingarrows @DCBPunibern.
Our Iron-photocatalysis approach to small-ring transfer is now live in its final form @angew_chem! Great collaboration with Julian West @pushingarrows. Congratulations to everyone involved š.@DCBPunibern @SwissChemistry #chemistry. Check it out here š .
