Bismuthinidenes as Lewis Bases in Reversible C(sp3)–O Bond Cleavage Another piece of the puzzle of Bismuth reactivity @CornellaLab @hyewon__moon @MrIrieman @Nils_Not_
https://t.co/jTGGcHyLkq
pubs.acs.org
Herein, we describe a unique example of a low-valent monocoordinated Bi(I) complex acting as a Lewis base partner in a FLP activation reaction. The interplay between a bulky and rigid Bi(I) and the...

Our syntheses of harziane diterpenoids (including harziandione and harzianone) are now out in @J_A_C_S . This work highlights again the power of Baran reductive olefin coupling (BROC) in building sterically hindered C−C bonds: https://t.co/UlKI7hHPUc
pubs.acs.org
Harziane diterpenoids possess a highly caged 6/5/7/4 core framework and four contiguous stereocenters, including two quaternary ones, and present significant challenges to chemical synthesis. Herein,...
