Bimetallic Palladium Catalysis: Direct Observation of Pd(III)–Pd(III) Intermediates
(American Chemical Society, 2009)\(PhI(OAc)_2\) is a common oxidant for Pd-catalyzed C−H bond functionalizations. Mechanistic hypotheses since the 1960s have suggested a Pd(II)/Pd(IV) mechanism. Here we present evidence for the relevance of bimetallic ... -
A Biocompatible Alkene Hydrogenation Merges Organic Synthesis with Microbial Metabolism
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)Organic chemists and metabolic engineers use largely orthogonal technologies to construct essential small molecules like pharmaceuticals and commodity chemicals. While chemists have leveraged the unique capabilities of ... -
Iron-Catalyzed 1,4-Hydroboration of 1,3-Dienes
(American Chemical Society, 2009)A chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective iron-catalyzed 1,4-hydroboration of dienes that affords γ-disubstituted allylboranes has been developed. 1,4-Hydroboration of 2-substituted dienes forms allylborane products with ...
