The Sieburth Lab

Congratulations to Lauren and Steven on successfully defending their Original Research Proposals!  They are both now officially PhD Candidates!

Congratulations to Svitlana & Buddha on the acceptance of their paper “Enyne [4+4] Cycloaddition/Oxidation:  Ring Contraction via Cyclopropanones and Their Anionic Ring-Opening Reactions” in Angewandte Chemie!  Check it out here!

Congratulations to Brenden on passing his ORP!  He is now officially a PhD Candidate!

Brenden presented a poster titled Electronic Control of a Titanium (II) Mediated Reductive Cyclization: Formation of a New C-C Bond to Access Amino Ketone Scaffolds at the Division of Organic Chemistry’s Graduate Research Symposium at Bryn Mawr College.  What an excellent opportunity to meet fellow 4th years and interact with top leaders in the field!

Congratulations to Dr. Buddha Khatri on successfully passing his PhD defense!  Buddha will be leaving us at Temple and moving (all the way to West Philly) to the Winkler Lab @ UPenn! We wish him well!

His dissertation is titled: Photocycloaddition of Conjugated Enynes and its Application in Natural Products Synthesis – Abstract

Congratulations to Buddha on the acceptance of his paper “Enyne-2-pyrone [4 + 4]-Photocycloaddition: Sesquiterpene Synthesis and a Low-Temperature Cope Rearrangement” in Organic Letters!  Check it out here!
