DEAR JOURNALS THAT CHARGE THOUSANDS FOR COLOR GRAPHICS: 1980 CALLED AND WOULD LIKE THEIR POLICY BACK. Sincerely, Scientists and taxpayers

MetaMacrocyclophane is a sweet geometry for remote directing, proven again and again.

I would like to congratulate my colleagues Chuan He, Wenbin Lin, Jiwoong Park and Luping Yu for being named 2020 Highly Cited Researchers. We are so proud of your accomplishments! recognition.webofscience.com/awards/highly-…

With pioneering #chemistry that has transformed fields ranging from drug discovery to materials science, Prof. Jin-Quan Yu will be the inaugural holder of the Bristol Myers Squibb Endowed Chair in Chemistry scripps.edu/news-and-event… Bristol Myers Squibb Yulab

What is we were immunoassay-guided for who to give vaccines, whether the vaccine was effective, when 1 dose was enough? Just now, 10 days after my 2nd dose vaccine, I had a quantitative multiplex immune response panel, via finger stick, taking <15 mins, watched in real-time 1/

I made a (hopefully) useful demonstration of the effect field strength has on chemical shift, coupling constants and resolution. The resonant frequency and coupling constant for the doublet (far right) are shown in ppm and Hz. Figured #chemtwitter was a good place to share this

To quote a fellow Baran lab alum, "Why make molecules? For total synthesis. Why total synthesis? To make molecules."

Our latest work on the biomimetic synthesis and structural revision of sarocladione, out now in Angewandte Chemie as a VIP paper, is enabled by the development of a novel ruthenium-catalyzed endoperoxide fragmentation: bit.ly/3v5JpOT

JAWSamycin accessed in a unique modular way enabled by e-borylation appearing today in ChemRxiv : bit.ly/3rYLydC. Method development, mechanistic analysis (with @DonnaBlackmond), scope, and applications, led by Lisa Barton.

There are two postdoc openings in the Sharpless lab scripps.edu/sharpless/ to explore SuFEx click chemistry for drug discovery. If you are interested, please contact Prof. Sharpless or Peng Wu #ClickChemistry

Westlake is now hiring in all fields and ranks of Chemistry. This new research university offers uncapped opportunities to explore the beauty of Science and Nature. Please apply via [email protected]. Chemjobber nature.com/naturecareers/…

Very sad to learn today of the passing of Professor Jiro Tsuji. Tsuji was a pioneer of transition metal catalysis and inspired many in the field including myself and Stoltz Group. It was my honor to have met him on a number of occasions. He will be missed.

The 2023 edition of Heterocycles is coming on April 3 (see attached syllabus)! This year will be a reverse classroom format wherein new material will be discussed with problem solving sessions including real-world consulting questions. Please review the books.apple.com/us/book/the-po…

Short, Scalable Access to Pyrrovobasine, appearing today in ChemRxiv: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

CYCLOPAMINE! A total synthesis with LEO Pharma collaborators. Appearing today in ChemRxiv : chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Our first paper is now online! We developed an electrochemical Mitsunobu-type reaction that needs no azo activation reagent. Lots of heterocycle nucleophiles and extensive nOe analysis to verify their regioselectivity! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…
