Dr Julia Pedroni (under the guidance of Prof Nicolai Cramer)

Julia Pedroni receives the 2018 EDCH prize for her ground-breaking research in the field of asymmetric C-H activations, namely for previously unfeasible palladium-catalyzed enantioselective C(sp3)-H functionalizations. Her pioneered transformations open a streamlined route to pharmaceutically important nitrogen-containing complex molecular scaffolds using simple and widely accessible starting materials.
