Celebrating the scientific accomplishments of RSC Fellows
Abstract
This review analyses recent advances and strategies employed in the Pd-AAA of nucleophilic prochiral heterocycles. Each section is focused on a specific heterocycle, where optimisation data and reaction scope have been carefully analysed.

Abstract
A series of hybrid emodin–polyamine or emodin–norchlorcyclizine molecules have been synthesized and evaluated as potential antiviral and antimalarial agents. (R)-Emoxyzine-2 was as potent as remdesivir in inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 replication.
