We are excited to report in @Nature a new class of modular molecular building blocks, TIDA boronates, which pull automated lego-like chemical synthesis into the third dimension 1/ #ChemTwitter #LEGO
nature.com/articles/s4158… @ChemistryUIUC @LASillinois @NewsAtIllinois @UofIllinois Previous work showed MIDA as a powerful ligand for reversibly attenuating boron reactivity within Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions - allowing iterative assembly of B-protected haloboronic acid building blocks. 2/
