Electrophilic cyclizations of biaryl-embedded 1,7-enynes enable the selective synthesis of dibenzofused polycycles with diverse topologies. The outcome strongly depends on the promoter—gold(I) complexes, Brønsted acids, or electrophilic boron reagents—as well as the substitution pattern of the enyne. This Account highlights recent advances and establishes a basis for future developments through the controlled design of substrates and activation modes.

The QuiBio Group is welcoming two new members, Marina and Lorena!
The Biological Chemistry Research Group is thrilled to have two new PhD students join the team as project research associates. Marina will be working with Dr. Javier García Marin on new protein-protein interaction disruptors to fight against fibrosis, while Lorena will be under the supervision of Dr. Ángela Martín-Serrano to discover bifunctional molecules as antibody-recruiting agents.
We wish them both the best of luck with their doctoral theses and are excited to see the contributions they’ll make to our research!
Our PhD candiate, Marta Durán, has participated in the the first edition of MEDCHEMXCHANGE, a new webinar series launched by the Sociedad Española de Química Terapéutica (SEQT) Early Career Scientists (SEQT-ECS) group.
