Dixon Group

Out now in OrgLett - check out our exploration into the synthesis of the Daphlongeranine natural products, achieving the first synthesis of their tetracyclic core!
Featuring a spirocyclisation strategy, XAT-initiated Giese addition and development of a Pd-catalysed cyclisation!

Check out our latest work in @angew_chem - an Ir-catalysed approach for the reduction of esters to ethers.

Well done to the team @YaseenAlmehmadi, Anna and Pablo!
