Congratulations to Geoff, Richard and Jason on your EurJOC cover article! Well done, all of you.

Isabel, Chris, Denzel and Farhana, welcome to the group!

Our communication entitled "Iodobenzene Dichloride in the Esterification and Amidation of Carboxylic acids: In-Situ Synthesis of Ph₃PCl₂" was a top ten EurJOC article most often downloaded from the Wiley Online Library for August 2016.

Congratulations! This is a first for our group.

Graham has been awarded the Province of Ontario Early Researcher Award for 2016. This award will support our research on novel fluorination reactions, and developing medicinal chemistry applications thereof.

Welcome to our new graduate students Tristan Chidley and Jianmei Shi. Tristan joins us from Western, where he  completed his MSc work in organic chemistry. Jianmei joins us from East China University of Science and Technology, where she completed her MSc work in Applied Chemistry.

Welcome to the group!

Dr. Zhao Zhensheng has just finished his PhD at the Institute for Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and he joined the Murphy lab to work on developing new fluorination reactions with HVI reagents.

Congratulations to Myriam and Grace on their first paper! 

It can be seen as an accepted article here.

The 5th ICHIC meeting was a great chance to meet many other colleagues in the HVI field.

Looking forward to the next one in Cardiff (2018)!

Our borosilicate-activation paper is now accepted in Eur. J. Org. Chem., and also accepted as cover art.

Congrats to Geoff, Richard and Jason, and thanks for all the hard work!

Welcome back!
