Reactivity of alkenyl pyrazole species.
🚀New advance toward asymmetric α‑Alkylation of Aldehydes. ✨Lead by Kezhi @KryptonChen, we report a branched-selective α-alkylation of aldehydes with unactivated olefins — enabled by a pyrazole mediator and a chiral Ir catalyst. Congrats! https://t.co/k0XRh17VuG

🚨RADICAL RETHINK: STEREORETENTIVE CROSS COUPLING UNLOCKED🚨 Today in @ChemRxiv ( https://t.co/UixXSDpA2R) the first method for stereoretentive radical cross-coupling is disclosed. No fancy ligands or redox needed—just a Ni-diazene twist. 120 years after Gomberg, a new chapter
