AK List

Together we explored, learned, laughed, and celebrated. The best kind of team building. ListLab Seminarfahrt!

Our group retreat. Grateful for the conversations, connections and memories…

Taking a moment to stretch, breathe, and reset with the best boss🧘‍♀️

The gang’s got that summer glow.

Congratulations Johanna and Jan for successfully completing the Technician School🎉

A long-standing synthetic challenge solved: highly enantioselective Markonikov hydration of simple alkenes with water @J_A_C_S @ICReDDconnect pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Visiting the Nobel Lounge at the Nobel Heroes @Gendarmenmarkt Berlin @lindaunobel @maxplanckpress

We are delighted to welcome Prof. Maeda @ICReDDconnect as this year’s Ziegler Lecturer @maxplanckpress

Cyclopropanes, unlocked 🔓 We report an organocatalytic asymmetric intramolecular hydroalkoxylation that directly converts cyclopropanes into enantioenriched tetrahydrofurans (up to 96.5:3.5 er)—no prior activation required @J_A_C_S pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Excited to share that IDPi catalysts are now available from @TCIchemicals !Unlock catalyst-focused design, enzyme-like confinement, and new possibilities in real-world asymmetric synthesis. tcichemicals.com/assets/cms-pdf…

Warmest wishes to our amazing community! Thank you for a great year. Happy Holidays!

The best time of the year is here: our traditional Christmas market visit.

Our PhD# 42…Congratulations Ruigang!

A breakthrough in chirality: the first synthesis of a stereogenic, acyclic amine-a long-elusive class of chiral molecule. Today @Nature nature.com/articles/s4158… @ICReDDconnect Also see the exciting independent work by the Tan group. nature.com/articles/s4158…
