Herein we demonstrate that the rapid ‘shapeshifting’ constitutional isomerization of a substituted bullvalene is influenced by the E-to-Z configurational isomerization of a remote carbamate group, giving rise to correlated motion. We find that, while... Read More about Correlated shapeshifting and configurational isomerization †.

Control of Dynamic sp3-C Stereochemistry (2023)
Journal Article
Bismillah, A., Johnson, T., Hussein, B., Turley, A., Saha, P., Wong, H., Aguilar, J., Yufit, D., & McGonigal, P. (2023). Control of Dynamic sp3-C Stereochemistry. Nature Chemistry, 15(5), 615-624. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41557-023-01156-7

Stereogenic sp3-hybridized carbon centres are fundamental building blocks of chiral molecules. Unlike dynamic stereogenic motifs, such as sp3-nitrogen centres or atropisomeric biaryls, sp3-carbon centres are usually fixed, requiring intermolecular re...
