• Modern synthetic approaches to phosphorus-sulfur bond formation in organophosphorus compounds 

  Jones, David J.; O'Leary, Eileen M.; O'Sullivan, Timothy P. (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2020-06-12)

  Phosphorothioates, phosphonothioates, phosphinothioates and phosphonodithioates are organophosphorus compounds with widespread application, especially in the fields of agrochemicals, medicinal chemistry and materials ...
• Identification of N‐ or O‐alkylation of aromatic nitrogen heterocycles and N‐oxides using 1H–15N HMBC NMR spectroscopy 

  Sheehy, Kevin J.; Bateman, Lorraine M.; Flosbach, Niko T.; Breugst, Martin; Byrne, Peter A. (Wiley, 2020-06-09)

  A series of representative diazines and pyridine N‐oxides were subjected to alkylation using several different alkylating agents. The 15N NMR chemical shifts (δN values) of the diazines, pyridine N‐oxides and derived ...
• Competition between N and O: use of diazine N-oxides as a test case for the Marcus theory rationale for ambident reactivity 

  Sheehy, Kevin; Bateman, Lorraine M.; Flosbach, Niko T.; Breugst, Martin; Byrne, Peter A. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-07-23)

  The preferred site of alkylation of diazine N-oxides by representative hard and soft alkylating agents was established conclusively using the 1H-15N HMBC NMR technique in combination with other NMR spectroscopic methods. ...
• Synthesis of a diaryliodonium salt and its use in the direct arylation of andole: a two-step experiment for the organic teaching laboratory 

  Prendergast, Aisling M.; Shanahan, Rachel; Hickey, Aobha; Harrington, Francis; Schönbauer, David; Byrne, Peter A.; Schnürch, Michael; McGlacken, Gerard P. (American Chemical Society, 2019-11-04)

  In the past decade, C–H functionalization has been a very active topic of research in both academia and industry. When a H atom is replaced by an aryl (or heteroaryl) group, the transformation is termed “direct arylation”. ...
• Synthetic and mechanistic aspects of sulfonyl migrations 

  Flynn, Aaran J.; Ford, Alan; Maguire, Anita R. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-02-03)

  Over the past 20 years reports of sulfonyl migrations have appeared, frequently described as ‘unusual’ and ‘unexpected’. This comprehensive review compiles, for the first time, sulfonyl migrations reported over the last ...
