Greetings from Porto! 🇵🇹 We’re at #EFMCASMC2025 - check out our latest research on frustrated covalent warheads (Dániel, P023), strained heterocycles (Krisztián, P006), innovative thianthrene chemistry (András, OC8; Bence, P364) and FLP-catalyzed ester reductions (Ádám, OC3)!

Missed part 1? You can find our previous study on the selective ester-to-aldehyde transformation in @jacs.acspublications.org:

The fiddler crabs are back - this time transforming esters directly into ethers (and enol ethers!)🦀
Check out our latest preprint showcasing the selective deoxygenation of esters via proximity-effect-driven FLP catalysis🧪
