Directed by Brian R. Farrell, Daria Fisher Page, and Ryan T. Sakoda (UI College of Law), "Cultivating Rurality: Building Community around Rural Research" will bring together scholars, community leaders from across the U.S., and professionals who work with rural populations and in rural spaces. During the symposium, attendees will be invited to collaborate in theorizing rurality, share how it impacts their work, examine how rurality is represented and celebrated, and begin to discuss challenges...

"Regio- and Stereocontrol with Anions and Radicals"

Abstract: Dienolates and their synthetic equivalents provide a versatile platform for regioselective functionalization reactions owing to their ambident reactivity, although factors influencing site selective vary widely. We have extensively explored radical additions to neutral polarized dienes as a potential solution to the problem of regiocontrolled γ-functionalization of cyclic ketones and related congeners. Integral to these studies are the...
