🚨 Our first Science paper 🚨 We report the isolation and reactivity of the first “inaccessible” 5-membered heteroaryne! 120+ year challenge! Congrats @jennahumke @belli_roman @ErinPlasek @Sal_K_3 @annabelly24 @CortnieRoberts @UMNChemistry @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Nickel binding enables isolation and reactivity of previously inaccessible 7-aza-2,3-indolynes

N-Heteroaromatics are key elements of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials. N-Heteroarynes provide a scaffold to build these essential molecules but are underused because five-membered...
