Our paper on the mechanochemical cross-electrophile coupling of twisted amides OR heteroaryl halides with alkyl halides is out now.
Congrats to @AJOrgChem and @ChemMattChem for all their hard work!

Fluorine chemistry that's not toxic HF, hot off the presses from @GouverneurGroup!

In my latest for @newscientist, the Holy Grail of fluorochemical production (and as I learned while reporting, these chemicals are in everything from antibiotics to fertilizers) newscientist.com/article/238…

We are thrilled to share a new HF-free technology that converts fluorspar to fluorochemicals. Enormous congratulations to the amazing team of chemists who made this recurring dream a reality! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… @CalumPatel @ScienceMagazine @OxfordChemistry @Fluo_Rok

Published in Science, we report a way to prepare fluorochemicals directly from fluorspar without HF.
2 years ago we thought this was impossible.
Made a reality thanks to our incredible team @Oxchemmike @BrowneGroup @GroupAldridge @Fluo_Rok @bobbypaton and lots of ball milling!
