First off, your paper was some excellent #PyridineAbuse

Where was this “potentially pointless” ref? I’ve seen potentially pointless (and kept it to myself) but interested in seeing what someone decided was worth publishing

#ChemPubs Very cool selective 3-fluoridation of pyridines via #PyridineAbuse ring opening-ring closing from the Andy McNally lab #CSUchem now out in #JACSasap
Some excellent scope in here
Nice work by all

Modular Construction of Chiral Aminopiperidine via Palladium-Catalyzed Hydroamination of 1,2-Dihydropyridine In this study, we describe a generally straightforward methodology for the catalytic synthesis of chiral aminopiperidine from pyridine and azoles. The key step was the palladium-catalyzed regioselecti...

Really liked this #OrgLett ASAP today from Wang et al (Xinjiang Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry) making chiral piperidines via 4-selective animation of dihydropyridines - can definitely see some uses of this work in med chem
