Senior graduate student Eric Andreansky represented the group at the spring ACS National Meeting in San Diego, presenting his research outlining the development of synthetic strategies for the akuama alkaloids.

Qinqin’s discovery of a novel C-H iodination reaction for electron deficient aromatic systems, and it’s applicability in the synthesis of novel electron transport materials will be published in JACS. Great collaborative effort working with the members of the Marder, Amassian and Borovik groups to explore the materials applications and probe mechanism. Congrats Qinqin.

Our work describing a new catalyst for enantioselective intermolecular C-H functionalization with acceptor only diazo compounds is published in Chemical Science. Congrats team!

The Blakey group welcomes new graduate students Amaan Kazerouni, Jacob Burman and Caitlin Bridges
