Way to go ⁦Bijan Mirabi⁩ on a Silver Medal poster at OMCOS. You did the ⁦The Lautens Group⁩ proud yet again.

We are delighted to welcome Dr. Alexa Torelli Alexa Torelli to @WWU_Muenster as an Humboldt-Stiftung post-doctoral research fellow! Alexa joins us from The Lautens Group, Mark Lautens OC at University of Toronto. Great to have you with us Alexa!

It’s a wrap. PhDone for Dr Bijan Mirabi ⁦Bijan Mirabi⁩ #57 Heading off to a top job in industry straight from his degree. He did it all, synthesis, computation, medicinal chemistry with ⁦Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC)⁩ catalysis, methodology and mechanism. Sad to see you go.

You know what they say, “you can’t trust a chemist who can’t cook.” Good thing Bijan Mirabi is amazing at both. Thank you for the lunch today!

Check out our latest paper to make unsymmetrical linked bis-heterocycles using palladium domino catalysis. Congratulations to Ramon Arora , Jonathan Bajohr and Mark Lautens OC. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

The group has been busy, even as I learn the job of Chair Chemistry at UofT Ramon Arora and Jon Bajohr put this work together - combining two of our favorite reactions. Some very sweet heterocycles.

Rapid Assembly of Bis-heterocycles via Palladium Domino Catalysis. A new Letter from @thelautensgroup describes how to make unsymmetrical linked bis-heterocycles. Learn more here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… @marklautens, @ramonarora

New year, new Baker lab members! The Baker lab is growing, and we are seeking chemists, chemical engineers and engineering chemists that like to explore complex science and engineering challenges, and have fun doing it. Interested? See the posting for how to apply!

Check out our latest paper in ACS Catalysis! Here we report a nickel/visible light catalyzed carbohalogenation of aryl iodides and aryl bromides. Congratulations to Ramon Arora and Mark Lautens OC. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

While in the past solo efforts were common in the group, they have become less frequent in recent years since we host many visitors from abroad, and they often pair up and share authorship. This effort by Ramon Arora is a throwback to those earlier days. Congratulations x1

Check out our latest paper in Chemistry at Thieme Synthesis! Here we report a Base-mediated synthesis of 2-bromo benzoheterocycles. Congratulations to Ramon Arora Shangyu Li, Maik Stommer, Bijan Mirabi and Mark Lautens OC thieme-connect.com/products/ejour… 📷
