      Chen, Wei W.; Artigues Cladera, Margalida; Font-Bardía, Mercè; Cuenca, Ana B.; Shafir, Alexandr (Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2023-06-13)
      In the context of the ever-growing interest in thecyclic diaryliodonium salts, this work presents synthetic designprinciples for a new family of structures with two hypervalenthalogens in the ring. The ...
    • Exploring benzylic gem-C(sp3)–boron–silicon and boron–tin centers as a synthetic platform 

      Chen, Wei W.; Pipaon Fernández, Nahiane; Díaz Baranda, Marta; Cunillera, Anton; Rodríguez González, Laura; Shafir, Alexandr; Cuenca, Ana B. (Chemical Science, 2021-07-02)
      A stepwise build-up of multi-substituted Csp3 carbon centers is an attractive, conceptually simple, but often synthetically challenging type of disconnection. To this end, this report describes how ...
