New Publication in Nature Chemistry
In this comment we discuss the importance of ligands in transition metal catalysis, looking at the success story of xantphos and why we feel it should earn the title of ‘privileged ligand’.

Congrats to all!
New publication in Organometallics!
In this paper, just reported in Organometallics, we describe the results of a computational investigation that shed light on the catalyst structure–activity and selectivity relationships for our recently developed Rh(I)-xantphos-catalyzed transfer C–H borylation of alkenes (c.f., Chem Catal. 2022, 2, 762-778). The study provides guidelines for the rational development of new catalysts to further enhance the performance of the catalytic system and address the remaining challenges.
