Resumen : Experimental design in the synthetic chemistry community primarily focuses on optimizing reaction conditions by modifying one variable at a time (OVAT). Design of Experiments (DoE) methodology, already commonplace in the chemical industry, captures optimal reaction conditions while shrinking the number of experiments required. Additionally, DoE can provide interaction effects between variables that are not captured in OVAT optimizations. Despite the cost- and time-saving benefits that DoE can provide, it has not been widely adopted by the academic co...

Modalidad virtual, Link : meet.google.com/wpi-ujuz-rok. Resumen : Cross-coupling platforms are traditionally built around a sequence of closed-shell steps, such as oxidative addition, transmetalation, and reductive elimination. Herein, we describe a dual photo/nickel catalytic manifold that performs cross-coupling via a complementary sequence involving free radical generation, radical sorting via selecti...
