We’re pleased that our latest contribution to palladium and visible light activated C-sp3-H halogenation is accepted in RSC Chemical Science. Congratulations to Milena, Geethi and Tyra!!!
Photoexcited Pd(II) Auxiliaries Enable Light-Induced Control in C(sp3)-H Bond Functionalisation - Chemical Science (RSC Publishing) We report a novel and general method for inert C(sp3)-H bond bromination, chlorination and iodination with alkyl halides. This protocol relies on the visible light irradiation of palladacycle intermediates derived from 8-aminoquinoline ligands, commonly used auxiliaries in C-H activation. The Pd(II)...
