Glad to see that my first paper in the Hevia group is out! This work would not be possible without the support from @antorna.bsky.social and @evaheviagroup.bsky.social as well as the DFT calculations from Ana and Manting!
Thrilled to share the work of @clarencetankl.bsky.social and @antorna.bsky.social on elevating #sodium mediated deprotonative #borylation to #catalytic regimes with an insightful #mechanistic study in collaboration with Max Garcia Melchor @pubs.acs.org @unibe.ch

This is ECAB member @ana-benitezmateos.bsky.social favorite @helvchimacta.bsky.social article because it shows the biocatalytic versatility of SHC enzymes in accessing nearly all stereoisomers of Ambrox, while also advancing the understanding of structure–odor relationships. doi.org/10.1002/hlca...

What a paper. It certainly fits the saying “the more we study, the less we know”. Now need to revise my notes on Grignard reagents!
