Our latest dinickel catalysis paper is out now in JACS ASAP! See Chris, Chengyi, and Perry’s work on hindered azoarene synthesis through N=N coupling below 🧪

This idea was especially inspired by the really cool work on halogen transfer done by fellow @CSBSJU alumnus Jeff Bandar, who’s research I’ve always thought was really exciting and creative! I was hyped to apply that work in the continuing Roberts group arynes lineage.
English
Really hyped to share my latest work in grad school focusing on a fun difunctionalization of arynes! @robertsgroupumn we show halogen transfer can install halogens competitive to protons! Thanks to the team @CortnieRoberts and our awesome undergrad Lars!

@OChem_Grenning @UMNChemistry Congrats Juan and Akash, fantastic news! Well earned for sure! And I love the picture at First Ave 😂
English
CONGRATS TO THESE ROCK STARS for passing their @UMNChemistry preliminary exams this week! I am VERY PROUD of both of them and I am sooo lucky to have the opportunity to serve as their research mentor!

@ortho_maxb @Merck Congrats Max, that’s great news! Wishing you the best in NJ!! 🙌🏻
English
So excited to start at @Merck !!!!! I’ll start first week of May as a senior scientist, and will move last week of April in NJ. Hit me up if you are in the area :)
English
It’s my last day ! Thank you @CAMalapit for the incredible mentoring and trust ! I’ll miss you day to day as a scientist but also a friend. Thanks also to the crazy @MalapitLab and extraordinary members !!!

@DrSauce96 I’m really manifesting this energy for some of my substrates rn 😅

I swear the easiest columns are the ones you put off, and the hardest are the ones you’re eager to do

@KyleGPearce @Orgmet_ACS Congrats Kyle, this is an awesome story!
English
Very chuffed to have our first paper of 2024 out in @Orgmet_ACS! Nice addition to the {SiNDippBe} story, the Be-H complex with bridging Cs atoms is probably the most ridiculous compound I'll ever make

Wooooooo

Just in time for @Nik_Burton's flash @ChemBioTalks our lab's first @J_A_C_S paper! sCIP custom isobaric chemoproteomics capture reagents. Something for everyone in this paper, new synthesis, FragPipe diagnostic ion mining, new reporters, and cysteine reactive electrophiles.
@KyleGPearce @rawssk0be Really cool to see, congratulations Kyle!

Very happy to share our latest calcium contribution, now out in Advanced Science

@NMRspectroscopy Legitimate question: don’t atoms in identical environments not couple with each other? Those fluorine atoms look identical by a symmetry plane parallel to the arene, so I wouldn’t have thought they would couple with each other.

Another weird molecules with interesting F-F through-space spin couplings 🧲

@ndchiappini Ruppert Prakash reagent is my favorite, preps I’ve ran with it have worked so well ❤️ some lovely NMR too!

Congratulations to Chris on an excellent seminar presentation!
Uyeda Lab@UyedaLab
Our own Chris Rybak will be presenting his work on catalytic azoarene synthesis today at 4:30 pm in WTHR 104! A reception will follow immediately after in Leighty Commons. Come check it out! 🧪

I’m honored to receive an @AAUW American Dissertation Fellowship to finish my PhD @ChemistryMIT! This AAUW funding program has supported women scholars since 1888. chemistry.mit.edu/chemistry-news…

I found out the other day that there are multiple ways people pronounce “ORCID” and 1) I am shook, but 2) what does #ChemTwitter do?? Asking for science.

Excited to have this finally out and ready for others to utilize! Huge thanks to the whole team especially @DanPolasky, @GeiszlerDaniel, and @TianyangYan for answering my millions of Mass Spec questions.
Keriann Backus@Keribackus
Delighted to share our lab's newest preprint chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…, which was spearheaded by PhD student @Nik_Burton and the result of another great collaboration with @nesvilab!

(Thread) In the first What If? book, I answered a question about cooking a steak by dropping it from space. At one point, I commented—jokingly!—that if anyone put a steak in a hypersonic wind tunnel to gather better data, I’d love to see the video.
Well, I have good news.

@hotbrother3 Kügelrohr was not something that came to mind but is worth trying!
I like the other suggestions too, I hadn’t thought of it in the frame of removing product instead. Some products might be trace, but I’ll explore that all the same. Thanks!

Q for #ChemTwitter, any magic advice out there on removing PhCN from a reaction? Trying to see if it’s my magic solvent, and it’s not making it easy. Maybe the DMF tricks with LiCl or #TeamHeptane azeotrope can help? #RealTimeChem
English
@ndchiappini That CCHF seminar from Du Bois was actually what inspired me to try PhCN and tBuCN in the first place!
tBuCN has solubility issues with some reaction components, although I plan to try optimizing those so maybe it’ll improve. Otherwise, xylenes azeotrope? I’ll give it a go 😅
