Check our latest work in @angew_chem. "Asymmetric Intramolecular α-Arylation of Polar Amino Acids Bearing β-Leaving Groups" ( https://t.co/b0Zof0fVvz)
onlinelibrary.wiley.com
Use of enolate chemistry to functionalise amino acids with β-heteroatom side-chains (serine, cysteine, threonine, etc.) is hampered by β-elimination. We show that α-arylation can be achieved by...

Great stuff, Rosa!
Rosa Altarelli from the Collins and Clayden groups gave a great talk shows us the power and versatility of biocatalysis for deracemisation with the title “Cyclic Deracemisation: One Enzyme, Both Enantiomers”. #TECS #CDT #EPSRC

Excellent work, Will!
@ClaydenGroup @WoolfsonLab @AggarwalLab @Buttsresearchgp @MCGalan_Bristol Will Terry-Wright of the @ClaydenGroup gave a fantastic talk on “direct photochemical rearrangement of lithiated enolates” delving into some elegant computational studies of photoexcited states to elucidate a lithium enolate rearrangement reaction mechanism #TECS #CDT #EPSRC

Great stuff, Marc!
Next we have Marc Del Olmo Garcia who is working in the @ClaydenGroup and Collins groups looking to achieve Autonomous Unidirectional Motion around C-C single bonds. Great stuff! #TECS #CDT #EPSRC

Great to see this work out now in @angew_chem! Take a look to see how we used colour to control conformation in a chemical system containing multiple photoacids🎨🧪. Congratulations to Matthew and the team!

In a solution of two metastable photoacids with contrasting absorption maxima, the solution pH may be control by varying the wavelength of the visible light input. This pH change governs the intera...
