We are happy to welcome our new postdoc colleague, Dr. Philipp Dabringhaus, who is joining after completing his PhD in the Krossing Group.


Today we celebrate Robert J. Gilliard, Jr., Novartis Associate Professor of Chemistry MIT Chemistry! He is a synthetic chemist whose research whose lab has developed synthetic methods to access molecules relevant to energy and environmental related problems. #BHM #BlackInChem #BlackandSTEM


Our manuscript on the #boron-doped triangular clip of graphene, boraphenalenyl, is now published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.! Chunlin unveils its multi-redox properties that mirror the charges states of the hydrocarbon analogue-cation, radical, anion isolated! pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.10⦠#maingroup


Chunlin's paper on the boraphenalenyl cation, radical, and anion is out J. Am. Chem. Soc.! š„ #aromaticity #boron pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10ā¦


Ph.D. positions are available in our lab. We seek motivated candidates who passed the CSIR/UGC exam, eager for doctoral studies in Main-group/ CCUS/ Material Chemistry. Please contact [email protected] for details and apply through the PhD admission portal by March 13, 2024.

Iām really excited to see this work finally out! Thanks to everyone who contributed to this work, particularly Andrew Molino who taught himself biradical EPR theory alongside me! š Iāll be presenting this at ACS New Orleans in a few weeks so come check it out.

If you are at #ACSSpring2024 in New Orleans on Wednesday you can hear new Gilliard Group chemistry! Levi Warring talks #antimony #bismuth at 2:40 (hall b, room 1) and 3:30 pm (205). Kim Hollister talks #boron at 3 (203) and 3:50 pm (205). Chonghe talks #boron at 3 pm (205).

Congrats to my girl Hannah Ketcham from the Gunnoe Group-Unhappy Catalyst on her first publication! Arene alkenylation using an Ir(I) catalyst and Cu(II) carboxylates, online now pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acā¦

Congrats to Vy Le, Gilliard Group UVA Chemistry undergraduate researcher 2021-2023, who is headed to Penn Chemistry for graduate school! Vy contributed to papers that recently appeared in J. Am. Chem. Soc. (pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jaā¦) and J. Mater. Chem. family C (pubs.rsc.org/en/content/artā¦).


My glovebox buddy, mentee, and close friend from the Gilliard Group is defending today MIT Chemistry! I'm so proud of her and all of her accomplishments, I know she's going to give a killer presentation. I wish I could be there Kim (Kim Hollister)! #WomenInSTEM


Ahhhh happy defense day to ⬠dr. anna davis! ⬠and Kim Hollister !!! 5 years goes by fast š„ŗ


Our manuscript on redox-active boracycles is now published in Accounts of Chemical Research ACS Publications! Kim Hollister and Kelsie Wentz highlight design strategies, ligand electronics, and redox-state-specific reactivity trends. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10⦠#maingroup #boron


Iām honored to be the first of many Gilliard lab PhDs from MIT! A huge thank you to Robert J. Gilliard, Jr. and the Gilliard Group for an amazing graduate experience. I couldnāt have been luckier with my choice of PI or the colleagues Iāve had over the past 5 years. I will miss you all!

Our manuscript which shows how to convert #borafluorene azides into BNP-incorporated heterocycles is now online Inorganic Chemistry! Eric details more of his synthetic work on Staudinger reactions of complex nitrogen-rich molecules! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac⦠#maingroup #boron #azide


Our manuscript on the synthesis, photophysics, and detailed computational analysis of pentacyclic diborepinium ions is published in Chemical Science (pubs.rsc.org/en/content/artā¦)! Kim Hollister Andrew Molino report late-stage ligand-dependent emission tuning! #maingroup #boron


I am very honored to received this award and grateful for the support of Robert J. Gilliard, Jr. and the entire Gilliard Group throughout my PhD. A big thank you to the Inorganic Faculty MIT Chemistry for the selection.

Congratulations to Dr. Levi Warring for successfully defending his thesis yesterday! My partner in crime since the beginning and I have no idea how I wouldāve made it the last five years without you. Iām so happy for you and proud of everything youāve achieved!


Thank you to President Donald J. Trump and the Biden Administration for the surprise PECASE award announcement in his final days in office! Team Gilliard Group is grateful for the recognition!
