In some personal news I found out that I have been promoted to full Professor of Inorganic Chemistry. I would like to thank my research team, students and especially my family for all their support on this journey.

Happy to share our new paper in @angew_chem! By co-encapsulating a size-compensating modulator, we expanded the scope of the 2G crystalline sponge method to low-polarity small molecules, enabling easy X-ray structural analysis of diverse sesquiterpenoids! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

When what would later be heralded as a groundbreaking paper landed on Phil Ball's desk in 1995, he wasn't sure what to think – and looking back through history, it would seem he wasn't alone. chemistryworld.com/opinion/w…

Check out our latest study in @JACS on using substituted cubenes to access new, highly functionalized “fused cubes”! Congrats to Sarah, Christina, and Kasey! Read it here: doi.org/10.1021/jacs.6c15216 @UCLA @UCLAchem @houk1000

Our tetrahedral cage is on the cover of Chem! This small, hydrophilic cage binds sulfate and chromate in water solely by neutral hydrogen bonds with micromolar affinities, approaching the affinity level of the sulfate binding protein (background). cell.com/chem/fulltext/S2451…

Replying to @ATinyGreenCell
If it was easy it’d be called “Search” not “Research”. The Re is important. Re-try. Re-examine experiments, data, and assumptions. Re-produce findings. All are challenging and time-consuming.

Not every molecule is the final product, sometimes it's the starting point for something more interesting. Ethyl 4-(allyloxy)salicylate is a specialized building block used to make more complex compounds. Its allyl group provides a useful handle for further chemistry, while the substituted salicylate core creates an interesting ¹H NMR fingerprint. 🧪 #NMR #NMRchat #BenchtopNMR #QM125 #NMRspectroscopy #Chemistry #Organicchemistry #Analyticalchemistry #Ethyl4allyloxysalicylate #Ethyl #Allyl #Salicylate #Buildingblock #Splitting

2026 #NobelPrize laureate Henri Kagan discovered a new way of manipulating chemical reactions, allowing a greater excess of one of the mirror images to be created than was previously assumed possible. His discovery has been revolutionary for chemists who develop reactions for the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, flavours, scents and new materials.

Henri Kagan and Kenso Soai were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry today, bringing the total number of chemistry laureates to 200. At 95 years old, Kagan is the second-oldest chemistry laureate in history, after John Goodenough, who was 97 when he received the prize in 2019.
