Chemical biology/bioorganic chemistry and other such shenanigans. Ruthless multidisciplinarians.

The class was also musically balanced, as I earlier noted that anti-aromaticity makes me sing Taylor Swift “Anti-Hero”.

In class today, I described the pictured reaction. “Do I have any AC/DC fans in the class?” <hands raised> “What is the molecule on the right?” <no answer> “CAUSE I’M T N T - I’M DYNAMITE! T N T!” - me belting it out.

@soncharm @KelleyKga Basically, if they want to take *any* website down (including things that decidedly fall under the umbrella of “academic freedom”), they can claim “non-compliance with accessibility rules” as a basis for cleaning those items from university-hosted web sites.

@soncharm @KelleyKga The problem is also specifically an issue because university administrators are so insistent on avoiding compliance issues. Things are taken down without warning or explanation, REDUCING accessibility to information in the name of “accessibility”.

This Biden-era thing is still in place btw, creates huge headaches/overheads for profs, especially those in science/math/&c who use things other than MS Word, and hasn’t been addressed or reversed by Team Trump/DOGE Kidz. Just recirculating in case it can percolate upward via the maybe 2 degrees of separation b/t me and certain Based Influencers on here

Heard from a tenured university prof that word has come down that some Biden-era 'Disability' law or rule seems to mean they can't post PDFs online for course materials. They're not sure how they're gonna handle it & waiting to see how other universities do things.

@AlexSolivan One thing we are careful about is making sure the resin is suspended in the glass vial (using a light football stirbar than essentially floats above the bottom of the vial), rather than crushed under a heavier stirbar.

@AlexSolivan @ChemRxiv Nothing that was obvious. Yields (versus amount on resin) were in the ballpark of expected, though we didn’t quantify rigorously. We’ve used these conditions before in cross-coupling, and they worked well! pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.102…

One paper accepted today and also one new manuscript appearing on @ChemRxiv makes for a good day.

On @ChemRxiv, we describe the synthesis of the novel amino acid 2-mercaptophenylalanine (via a copper-mediated cross-coupling reaction with an N-terminal 2-iodo-Phe on solid phase) and its application in NCL as a phenylalanine surrogate. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Gordon Conference karaoke also reminds me that Gen Z properly loves Joan Jett. And that their parents are decidedly Gen X.

Though it should be noted that Erick seemed particularly enthusiastic about singing multiple songs from Queen.

I had my doubts about Gordon Conference karaoke. I was wrong. Do you wonder what it’s like to see Erick Carreira sing “Country Roads” or Rick Danheiser enthusiastically belt out “Sweet Caroline”? Exactly.

Microsoft, all we’re asking for in Word is for the ability to place or subtly move individual graphics without playing random reformatting roulette, with graphics and text flying everywhere, never to return whence they came.
