A wonderful presentation from Aife Conboy from iCAT CDT's cohort 4, presenting her work with the @greaneygroupon a one-pot skeletal editing strategy for the synthesis of pyridines from benzenes via a N to C switch. #EPSRC #CDT #iCAT

Best poster from the conference! Well done, Alex! 👏
Last but by no means least, Alex Betts from the Leigh Group showcased how chemically fuelled ratcheted synthesis can eventually be used in synthesis. #EPSRC #CDT #iCAT

Another great presentation from George Bilionis, a member of the @GEMCrisenza lab. His talk discussed his research in electrosynthesis; more specifically, electrochemical ‘cut and sew’ methodologies for sustainable alkyne and aryne functionalization. #EPSRC #CDT #iCAT

Also representing #iCAT, Ethan Lim from @JamesLabChem, discussed the interesting topic of room temperature electron-catalysed α-arylation. Great work! #EPSRC #CDT

Victoria Jiang gave a great talk on the use of coupling reagents for the movement of small molecule motors. Very interesting to see a more efficient approach to screening fuels than the traditional single-variable-at-a-time approach. Well done @victoriajiang00! #EPSRC #CDT #iCAT

Orla Conboy, from @GroupProcter, talked about the configurational stability and concise synthesis of enantioenriched benzothiophene S-oxides, for the application of these molecules to asymmetric synthesis. #EPSRC #CDT #iCAT
