Wang Lab at Duke

Congratulations to Guangshou, and Wang lab alum Colton and Jiaqi for this work on aminofluorination, now in the JACS ASAP! ✅ doi.org/10.1021/jacs.2…

@AubeLabUNC Thanks! Very glad that this method can be useful to our neighboring friends.

@WangLabDuke Congrats to our friends over in Durham on this nice method. May we borrow this?

#NHCs #NHeterocyclicCarbenes Wang group reported Cu-NHC-catalyzed #amino-#fluorination of alkenes & 1,3-dienes. Useful β‐fluoroalkylamine products. IPrCuCl showed best reactivity for 1,3-dienes! @Tongliang_Zhou @WangLabDuke @J_A_C_S doi.org/10.1021/jacs.2…

Great selection of Paper-of-the-week presentations and discussions at our weekly group meeting, covering interesting work from @WangLabDuke, @FrdricGeorgesF1 Group (nice work on the mechanism!), Xiao Group @LivUni, @buddhadeb1979 Group, and @KBrownLab. #Boron #Chemistry

Very proud of @hyejin_park9595 for another great paper on hyper polarized probes! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Thanks to all for attending and hearing the exciting work we have going on!

The next installment of our Fall Faculty Colloquium series! Join us on Friday!

BREAKING NEWS: The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless “for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry.”

Congratulations as well to Barry Sharpless, PhD '68, who was also awarded the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry for laying the foundation for click chemistry. This is his second Nobel Prize - he is one of only five people to ever receive two.

Congratulations to Professor @CarolynBertozzi, winner of the 2022 @NobelPrize in Chemistry for her role in the development of bioorthogonal chemistry. stanford.io/3Tf1i9B

Congratulations to @hyejin_park9595 for another insightful paper on hyperpolarized probes! doi.org/10.1016/j.bmc.…

As promised we are launching the Dave Evans Problem Set Generator. This contains all of the problems hosted in his original service, with some modernization and streamlining. organicchemistrydata.org/evans/problems/ questions/suggestions: organicdivision.org/contact/

Over the coming months, we will highlight work by #NextGenOrgChem young researchers to watch! Up next is a paper by Chengming Wang describing a reductive coupling protocol for the synthesis of symmetrical thiosulfonates. Nominated by @WangLabDuke. …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ej…

Very proud of our undergraduate Justin for presenting his first poster on his summer research! Great job to all of the undergrads presenting.

Excited to share at ORP @GordonConf Innovations of Synthesis! If you’re attending today, come hear what we’ve got going on! #GRC2022

Congratulations to Dr. Yungeun Kwon, @YungeunK, who defended her thesis elegantly this week! Good luck in Seattle Dr. Kwon!

Excited to share my review article on hyperpolarized 15N-labeled molecular imaging probes is now published in Chemical Science! It was a rewarding experience working on this piece while @WangLabDuke pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
