Members of The Scripps Research Institute's Baran lab illustrate how they have repurposed a 70-year-old reaction: using a simple nickel catalyst, a limitless array of simple carboxylic acids can be diversified to make new C-C bonds with the same reagents and simple technique of the age-old amide-bond forming reaction. From left to right are Phil Baran, Lara Malins, Tien Qin, Jacob Edwards, Chao Li and Josep Cornella.
