The final version of our work is now online in JACS! Scalable total synthesis of nonthmicin and ecteinamycin revealed a dual antibacterial and antitoxin profile against Clostridioides difficile. Many thanks to all our collaborators! pubs.acs.org/jacsat/article/…
Our latest work shows how modern total synthesis can enable therapeutically meaningful discovery, uncovering selective anti-C. difficile activity and toxin-protective effects of structurally complex polyether ionophores. Now available on ChemRxiv: chemrxiv.org/doi/full/10.264…

Excited to share our latest paper on the total synthesis of Illicium sesquiterpenes. Not only access more targets but synthetically connect distinct molecular architectures of different subfamilies through late-stage skeletal reorganization triggered by Lewis acids or oxidants.
