Chemistry of a-nitrooxylactams is virtually unknown. Here we introduce an electrochemical approach and a novel synthetic application for the synthesis of relevant N-heterocycles. Superb work of @ngelAlejandroN1 and fantastic collaboration with @BAFrontanaU doi.org/10.1021/acs.or…

Convergent #TotalSynthesis of Aleutianamine by Joseph P. Tuccinardi and John L. Wood @JohnWoodGroup at @BaylorCBC in @J_A_C_S pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Nothing beats a good, well worn collection of Synthetic Design books!

A star in Total Synthesis was born in our lab. He’s now moving to Baylor University with a giant in Total Synthesis for his graduate studies. I’m pretty sure that @LuisFPS14 will bring us pride and joy soon.

@fergotico I really hope so. I couldn't be more grateful to you and @QPeterL for the invaluable talks we have had.

@QPeterL ¡Gracias a ti! Todo el éxito es completamente compartido. 🥸

Felicidades @LuisFPS14 por la magnífica presentación y defensa de tu tesis. Ha sido un placer dirigir tu proyecto. Éxito en todo lo que viene, no tengo duda de que la vas a romper.

Life is what happens to you while you’re having fun with friends and family.

When you finish a PhD/postdoc in Mexico they take you in a special room and give you a taxi license, the secret recipe for carnitas and pastor, and blessings because there are no place for you to work. I'm posting this while planning where to stablish my carnitas bussines.

@fergotico Dear Prof. Sartillo-Piscil, thanks to your powerful deconstructive lactamization chemistry, we could convert (allo)securinines to (allo)norsecurinines!! I hope we can meet one day at conferences!

Pleassed to see our deconstructive lactamization of piperidines being used for molecular editing of (allo)securinine to (allo)norsecurinine. Congratulations Prof. Sunkyu and his group. DOI 10.3389/fchem.2024.1355636

Chequen este reportaje sobre el premio a la mejor tesis doctoral Rafael Illescas, otorgado por la @SQM_MX a nuestro querido @JulioRoIba . fb.watch/pXxOJAw2CD/ Y si están buscando un lugar para inventar reacciones chidas como esta, mi laboratorio es el lugar perfecto!

The direct olefination of single C(sp3)–O Bond is now affordable. A Wittig-like Olefination of 3-alkoxyamino lactams allows the two-step synthesis of (E)-3-exo-alkenyl lactams form simple saturated N-heterocycles. Superb work of @ngelAlejandroN1 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

¡Extra! ¡Extra! Estos son los ganadores del Premio a las Mejores Tesis de Licenciatura, Maestría y Doctorado en Ciencias Químicas “Rafael Illescas Frisbie”, Edición, 2023. ¡Felicidades! #SQM #PremioRIF2023 #LaQuímicaNosUne

An elegant approach to furan-fused naphthopyrones and application to the synthesis of (+)-lasionectrin and its C12-epimer is reported by the group of Sartillo-Piscil (@fergotico). Please have a look: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Chiral furan-fused naphthopyrones are complex and beautiful bioactive natural products. Yet there is not an efficient way to synthesize them…till now. Here, we introduce an elegant solution applied to the synthesis of (+)-lasionectrin and its C12-epimer pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Dr. @QPeterL introducing a novel approach to furan-fused naphtopyrones at the Internal Symposium at @BUAPoficial . Superb talk!
