Electrochemical Synthesis of Dixiamycins
Phil Baran upon learning about electrochemistry
UPDATE: Our paper was highlighted on Deadspin!
UPDATE 2: Support from the San Diego Chargers!
Our paper on the total synthesis of dixiamycin B is now live in the JACS ASAP section, which means it's my turn to write a blog post. When we initiated this project, we had no idea we'd turn to electrochemistry; we just thought making the N–N bond would be interesting. In fact, I remember it like it was yesterday...
