Isotopic labeling just got significantly more extreme
#ChemSky Really nice #OPRDasap here from Gilead on the key indazole fragment from Lenacapavir - lots of optimization and key reaction safety testing (51% hydrazine hydrate - yikes)
And my fav alkylating agent - trifluoroethyl triflate!
Even an @alexgoldberg.ca sighting!
