A story nearly a decade in the making,
here's a catalyst system, yours for the taking,
tertiary alkyl amines should be shaking,
catalytic C–N bond breaking and making!

The word is out!🥳
Happy to finally share the news that I received the @NWOFunding #Rubicongrant to support my #postdoc in the @morandilab at @ETH Zürich for another 2 years👩🔬🇨🇭
It is a great feeling to achieve the first goal of this journey✔️
Up to next one💪

Congrats to @Mue11erPatrick for his successful PhD defense!
Thanks to my labmates @ej_meeus, @aaronzhong619, and Niklas Lentelink for making the design of a #glovebox PhD-hat become reality! We had a lot of fun crafting it together.😁
Eva J. Meeus@ej_meeus
Crafted my first #PhDhat 🎓last week together with my labmates from the @morandilab🧑🎨 @ETH And yes, it’s a #glovebox, complete with its gloves and antichamber🤩 #PostDocVoice #chemtwitter #RealTimeChem

Check out our recent article in Org. Lett. about the radical reactivity of spirocycles!
Not only was this a cool academia/industry collaboration to be part of, but the computational analysis was also influenced a lot by my teaching duties as a grad student.

It's been out for a while already, but check out this paper on some cool Ti-metallacycles I had the chance to contribute to during my time back in Minnesota!
Ian Tonks@ianatonks
Our latest out in @Orgmet_ACS: a neat rearrangement of a Ti metallacycle gave us insight into how Ti-catalyzed alkyne carboamination works! Congrats to the team: Jaekwan for leading; Evan, Dominic, and Connor for contributing key results along the way! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
