  1. Happy to share my latest #research with Prof P. Chiu (University of #HongKong) and E. Krenske (University of #Queensland):
    Reductive #Aldol Reaction of cyclic enones. I personally love this work because it allows the construction of aldol products that were previously difficult to achieve. If the enolate is cyclic, an (E)-enolate is automatically formed. In most cases this leads to an anti aldol reaction, but in our case we get the syn product.

  2. Researchers (Rahul Choudhury et al.) from the Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research in #India reported in the journal #OrganicLetters the total synthesis of benzo[g]isochromene stereodiads. Their synthesis using a TiCl4 promoted #Aldol coupling showed that the previously reported absolute structure did not agree with the structure of the natural product and a revision was suggested.
