Although the first total synthesis of taxol was accomplished nearly 30 years ago, its complex structure still motivates researchers to invent new synthetic routes. Now, Masayuki Inoue and co-workers (University of ) published a radical-based approach to the in the journal

Can you get cyclopropanes from 1,2-diketones. You can! Chun-Xiang Zhou and co-workers from the Xiamen University () demonstrated this in the journal . A salen-type with Mo as the active metal centre mediates this reductive reaction.

A truly powerful method with the potential of follow-up work for a more general substrate scope.

Addition of silicon nucleophiles to 3-substituted azirines:

Martin Oestreich (TU , ) and colleagues published in the catalyzed enantioselective addition of silicon nucleophiles to azirines, which the authors called cyclic strained ketimines. High yields were reported for aryl substrates, whereas non-aryl substrates gave lower yields/selectivity.

Hey everyone! Quick here: I'm Nati, a chemist finishing her PhD in Argentina. I mainly work on and but also teach at the national university of rosario. Huge nerd for everything and related, as well as and , but interested in in general.
Also a vegan acrobat shifting from one hobby to another accompanied by my kira.
