As I alluded to at the end of my previous entry, I've been working on a way to make sulfonamides of the arryl pyrrole series for the OSDD Malaria project.

Seasons greetings all. This is the December 2012 update from my side of the Todd lab. I have finished my honours project and submitted my thesis to obtain Hons I - which is highly pleasing - and I'm back for a period of time to assist the Todd group and their antimalarial project. Specifically, I hope to generate a variety of analogues of the hit compound within the aminothienopyrimidine series (Figure 1)
