Check out our new paper in @Orgmet_ACS, where we show in a combined experimental/computational study that ruthenium-catalyzed epoxide hydrogenolysis proceeds through an SN2-like mechanism. Congrats to @mchead12 and @__benjoseph for their excellent work! doi.org/10.1021/acs.organome…

Excited to share the first publication from our group in collaboration with the Goldberg lab @colgatechem on Rapid Cysteine Arylation using Pyridinium (CAP) salts -- a reaction that usually gives "HPLC pure" products without purification. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

The Tetrahedrathalon was a great picnic and fun state of games this year. The third floor was able to protect the trophy after a close contest.

Hot off the "presses": check out our new paper on epoxide hydrogenolysis catalyzed by ruthenium-pincer complexes! This work was done by @ColgateChem undergraduates Fallyn Kirlin, Olivia Borden, Mina Head (@mchead12), and Sophie Kelly. doi.org/10.1021/acs.organome…

Ok, production version: if you rearrange "resonance structure" you get "a correctness untrue."

Hurtling toward wildfire smoke plumes in a jury-rigged old jetliner, you're just worried that your instrumentation's acting up. @ColgateChem 's Anne Perring and Brady Mediavilla are made of stronger stuff than I am. By me @colgateuniv magazine: news.colgate.edu/magazine/20…

Just out on @Chemrxiv: our experimental and computational study on ester hydrogenation catalyzed by the activated form of Milstein’s catalyst, which finds a way to convert the NEt2 group to an NHEt group. (1/5) doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.13…
