May 21, 2022Slick decarboxylation there MerckThis is another one from Merck. Those guys love them some Blue Light.
May 21, 2022How Bad is it?Oh it's so bad, it's DBAD ! This one has two very different photoreactions. The first is a bit of a rarity: A cerium catalyzed...
May 12, 2022Somebody make it enantioselective plz?Today this one published from Merck. We know those guys love their blue light photoredox. Could one of you super smart types out there...
May 11, 2022Another decarboxylative 1,4Nope not selective, and not very high yielding but they get it! It's described here, but first published here. This 1,4 had to be one...
May 11, 2022Sensing a pattern here?Another decarboxylative cross coupling seen here. BMS were early adopters.
May 10, 2022if only it were chiral...Damn the free radicals, full speed ahead! This one is another fine example.
May 10, 2022Decarboxylation with kickThis one maybe inspired by this paper, but what's with the 2-phenylethynylcopper?
May 10, 2022Another decarboxylationThis one looks a lot like that one. Love the functional group tolerance.
May 2, 2022Look at thatLooks like some Nucleosides met up with a blue light. Good one BMS! I assume they separated the epimer.
Apr 29, 2022Another one seen in the wildHere's another one with the Penn reactor: WO/2022/087634. This time 100 mg scale in 3 mL DMA! I bet you could run it more concentrated,...
