Our recent work with the Ulijn groups on the use of computational methods to reduce the search space for new tripeptide hydrogelators has been featured on the cover of nature chemistry and has been the topic of a Nature Chemistry News and Views piece by Ehud Gazit. Peptides are the building blocks of living […]

Ir Deuteration Catalysts make it on to the Inside Cover of ASC
Our work with the Kerr group on understanding the mechanism behind the Ir-based deuteration catalysts has been chosen as the inside cover of Advanced Synthesis and Catalysis. You can read about the specifics of the reaction here. Importantly, this work lays the foundation for a large number of studies where we have utilised our understanding of the […]
Work on VCPR highlighted as a HOT paper in CEJ
Recent work with the Percy group has been flagged up in Chemistry – A European Journal as a Hot paper. We’re proud of all of our projects and think they’re all worth while – but it’s nice to know that others agree sometimes as well. To read about the origins of the stereospecificty in vinylcyclopropane rearrangements (VCPR), follow this link… […]
Metal-Free coupling reactions chosen as the cover for Chemical Science.
Our work with the Murphy group on the role of super electron donors in promoting metal-free aryl-aryl coupling reactions has been chosen as the cover for Chemical Science. This work has attracted a lot of attention and stayed consistently in the top 5 of most downloaded articles for Chemical Science in the first two months of its online […]
