@NaOHBartfield postdoc malone, my fav chemist rn

RADIUM TRIFLATE MENTIONED

Thrilled to announce that I will be starting my independent career at @ChemistryUIUC this fall. The Strauss Group (@SRG_Chem) will work at the interface of synthetic methods development and polymer science to uncover new strategies in polymer design and functionalization.

@NaOHBartfield @mucinophile Go noles!

@mucinophile No. Bob holton the 🐐 Go noles

is taxol woke and liberal?

Azorellolide! How can you not work on a natural product that starts with "Azo"? Great collaboration with @TantilloLab. I have to say my respect for carbocations has enormously gown through this project. They are just too high in energy and have too many options. But you can tame them! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

We have recently disclosed a new 5-step (or 6) synthesis of the marine natural product (+)-cylindricine B in @ChemicalScience for all to read (pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art…). This was a heroic effort from graduate student @potato_dal and undergraduate student @nobeard3.

Congrats to Dylan and Stephen for their method to glycosylate cotylenol and access 14-3-3 protein-client molecular glues! tinyurl.com/2y45ck4n Donor linker design was aided by Stephen’s “autoDFT” and solved a common problem in terpenoid synthesis: contrasteric glycosylation.

The only real psychedelics are tryptamines, lysergamides, and phenethylamines. Ketamine is not a psychedelic. Cannabis is not a psychedelic. MDMA is not a psychedelic. Do you agree or disagree?

@shawshankrxn surely you've already tried this, but what about benzylic bromination (aibn, nbs, PhH or ccl4) then oxidize with TMANO or DMSO?

Along with @MeganGreaves7, @seoungtae_kim, and our friends at @bmsnews, we developed a Cu-catalyzed C–O coupling protocol using our newly developed ligand family that features a new ligand, mild reaction conditions, and interesting mechanistic insights. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
