This was a really cool project. Awesome to see it in p rint figshare.com/collections/Sca…

Final version appearing today in @NatureChemistry : nature.com/articles/s41557-0…
Aminoalcohols are expressed in natural products, blockbuster pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and key building blocks for innumerable society-benefitting applications. See how a departure from polar bond analysis can radically simplify access to these structures on small or large scale. Appearing today in @ChemRxiv : chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv… Combined with our previous disclosure (pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…), nearly any stereo- or regioisomer of these important structures can be accessed quickly and easily.

Radical retrosynthesis strikes again. Primary RAEs can be mixed and matched with tertiary RAEs or olefins to make quaternary centers with a comical level of simplicity. Check out these applications. A fun collaboration with the great and powerful @Shenvi_Lab: tinyurl.com/7heyrvka

Our investigation into the photomediated ring contraction of saturated heterocycles is out in @J_A_C_S! Excited to finally share my inaugural 1st author, multi-part story that blends synthesis, mechanistic & wavelength-dependent insight, and computations. tinyurl.com/hccapy9d

Do you find this as fascinating as we do? Electrochemical oxygen-atom transfer – same catalyst oxidizes same substrate at the cathode (O2) and anode (H2O). Dioxygenase reactivity w/ electrochemical energy as the only input. Nicely done, Asmaul and James! tinyurl.com/3xwccpps

Last week we held our second Process Chemistry Workshop here @abbvie North Chicago! It was an absolute pleasure giving 17 graduate student guests a glimpse into the world of process chemistry. Thank you to all the students and organizers! Until next year… #PCW #abbvie

Anomeric Amides to the rescue! Halogenate even the most stubborn systems with a new class of reagents. Appearing today in @ChemRxiv - a fun collaboration with Abbvie, BMS and Pfizer. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Exciting new work from @abbvie process chemistry!
I'm very excited to share a unique reaction discovered at #abbvie! We found that thiols and halogenated heterocycles can react, in the absence of base, light or transition metal, under a mechanism we term Proton Transfer Dual Ionization (PTDI) SNAr. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Proud to announce our 2000 Watt output blue laser has arrived and is ready to do some serious photochemistry scale-up. This thing is a beast.

Such a fantastic day to have the AbbVie-Northwestern Symposium @NUChemistry. We’re delighted to have Prof Dave @NicewiczLab and Dr. Stephen Lathrope deliver two fantastic @abbvie Lectures, followed by engaging poster discussions, and AbbVie info session.

Finally, lets take the bias out of published reactions and create useable information for the future. I'm excited for the new reactivity we'll discover if we apply these principles. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
