Published in 2017 at "Tetrahedron Letters"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tetlet.2017.05.056

Abstract: Abstract Alkyl diazonium ions are among the most reactive alkylating agents in the synthetic chemists’ arsenal. That said, there are precious few methods by which one can selectively and safely utilize this chemistry. Herein, we… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Antioxidants"

DOI: 10.3390/antiox14060712

Abstract: Alkylating agents, historically employed as chemical warfare agents and currently used as chemotherapeutic drugs, are known to induce significant pulmonary toxicity. Current clinical interventions often fail to fully prevent or reverse these pathological changes, highlighting… read more here.
