  • Chiral molecules containing the pyrrole framework 

    Thirumalairajan, Srinath, Beth M. Pearce, and Alison Thompson. 2010. "Chiral molecules containing the pyrrole framework." Chemical Communications 46(11): 1797-1812.
    This review summarizes strategies by which chiral pyrroles, both simple and complex, have been prepared: strategies include formation of the pyrrolic ring using starting materials appended with chirality, as well as the ...

  • Synthesis of dipyrrins bearing chirality adjacent to the conjugated skeleton - Electron-poor pyrroles exhibit dramatically reduced nucleophilicity 

    Beshara, Cory S., Beth M. Pearce, and Alison Thompson. 2008. "Synthesis of dipyrrins bearing chirality adjacent to the conjugated skeleton - Electron-poor pyrroles exhibit dramatically reduced nucleophilicity." Canadian Journal of Chemistry-Revue Canadienne De Chimie 86(10): 951-957.
    With the aim of furthering our investigations into the asymmetric complexation of dipyrrinato ligands, a dipyrrin bearing a stereogenic centre directly adjacent to the conjugated skeleton was synthesized. The electron- ...
