submitting our manuscripts to the tortured chemists department. #yoonlabswifties #TTPD

congratulations to the members of the Yoon lab who won departmental awards this year!

One of our phenomenal undergrads Rodrigo Villanueva also gave a great poster on his research from the last year at the Undergraduate Research Symposium this week!

Included in the "Most popular 2023 Catalysis Collection" of Chemical Science featuring exciting developments by The Castellano Group, Rehbein Research, Rovis Group, Yoon Group, Ritter Lab, and MacMillan Group among others. dx.doi.org/10.1039/D3SC00…

Head (to Tail) over to J. Am. Chem. Soc. to read Ellie Plachinski, Hyung Joo, and Matt Genzink 's general approach toward the truxillate natural products via solid-state photocycloadditions! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4…

New paper! Ellie Plachinski, Hyung Joo, and Matt Genzink have a solid-state photochemistry approach to the truxillate family of natural products in J. Am. Chem. Soc. today. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

New paper in J. Am. Chem. Soc. ! Jesse, @tahoefiala, and Wesley Swords report the development of the first highly enantioselective catalytic Paternò-Büchi reaction. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Another new paper this week: Jesse, @tahoefiala, Wesley Swords, and Yerin report the first asymmetric catalytic Paternò–Büchi reaction in J. Am. Chem. Soc. today. A great collab with Kent Meyer in the Wright lab UW-Madison Chemistry was critical for this one to work. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

We had a pandemic collab with JR Schmidt and @ypal_1_23ev of TCI UW-Madison to use AI to predict the emission spectra of Ir photocatalysts. @tahoefiala and Wesley Swords provided the assist from our end. …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Alana, Arindam, and Mihai dropped a comprehensive preparative, spectroscopic, and computational study to understand why this photocatalytic aziridination is so darn good. Big collab among us, Niels Damrauer, and Robert Paton through the new SuPRCat CCI. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Alana, Mihai, and Arindam reported a comprehensive synthetic, spectroscopic, and computational study on a general approach to alkene aziridination, now out in ACS Catalysis! 🔺 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Our final plenary speaker for Royal Australian Chemical Institute #Organic24 is Prof. Tehshik Yoon Tehshik Yoon Yoon Group from UW Madison where his group develops new photocatalysts and applies them to the synthesis of complex molecules. Find more at organic24.org

Excited to present the first paper from the Park group, published today in Science Magazine! We found a user-friendly, mild reaction conditions for exchanging an oxygen in heterocycles with nitrogen groups. Congrats Donghyeon, Jaehyun, and the team! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Big shout out to the Yoon group Yoon Group for an insightful overview, highlighted in the Perspective. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Our undergrad Rodrigo wondered if we could replace the bespoke chiral acid used in our recent asymmetric photochemistry with commercial (S)-TRIP. His protocol for enantioselective truxinate synthesis on 2-gram scale just dropped on Organic Syntheses: orgsyn.org/demo.aspx?prep…

Ellie (Ellie Plachinski), Zoe, and Rodrigo report the an enantioselective [2p+2s] photocycloaddition enabled by chromophore activation! This was a super fun collaboration with Darren at GSK and Tay at Corteva through the new UW–Madison SynCat Center! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
