12/1/2023 – Welcome Liza to our team as a graduate student! We’re so excited to have you!
7/9/2023 – Congratulations to Joe, Sara, Nick, and Jennifer on developing an electrophotocatalytic approach to enable intermolecular ketyl radical coupling!
Herein, we report a new class of electrophotocatalysts, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, that promote the reduction of unactivated carbonyl compounds to generate versatile ketyl radical intermediates. This catalytic platform enables previously challenging intermolecular ketyl radical coupling …
