Last week, I attended #ACSFall2024 and was able to share my work with so many wonderful scientists! Thank you to ACS WCC and Eli Lilly and Company for supporting me! I am in awe of all the amazing women I met through the WCC. So grateful for all the fantastic scientific conversations!

Congratulations to third-year student Shivani Patel on receiving the Women Chemists Committee and Eli Lilly Travel Award! 🎊 Shivani shared her work the enantioselective synthesis of sulfoximines at #ACSFall2024!

Yesterday, @Maria_AVargas represented the Ellman lab at an invited poster session in Cambridge with the 2024 Chemistry Spotlight Pfizer Inc.! Check out her amazing work on visible light-mediated diastereoselective epimerization on our website! 👩🏻‍🔬🧪 #WomenInSTEM

Congratulations to Prof. Seth Herzon for winning the ACS Award for Creative Work in Synthetic Organic Chemistry! Seth joins fellow Yale Chemistry colleagues Profs. Jon Ellman (2021) and Scott Miller (2016) as a recipient of this award! cen.acs.org/acs-news/ACS-a…

Congratulations to Vaani Gupta (G3) for receiving a Harry H. Wasserman Graduate Research Fellowship award! ✨️✨️

Very excited to share our latest work by Ellman lab alum Dr. Andrew Streit and second year Julia in collaboration with Matt Simon's lab at Yale! Check out this work on mapping small molecule transcriptome interactions below: 🧬 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

It's finally time to share this: my long time obsession with inherently chiral medium-sized rings now has a catalytic, enantioselective method. After a number of attempts, we developed a strategy based on choosing the maximally preorganized disconnection, which... [1/3]

The lab previously reported the 1st catalytic enantioselective S-alkylation of sulfenamides by metal catalysis and now discloses organocatalytic enantioselective S-alkylation to provide useful S(IV) and S(VI) pharmacophores. Check it out below: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Ellman Lab Huge thanks to my amazing friend and coauthor Na Yeon Kwon for all her work helping to get this paper out!

Excited to share our latest work on the preparation of phosphonate-substituted diketopiperazines from α-amino amides by Rh(III)-catalyzed N-H functionalization. Congratulations on this fantastic work to fifth year grad student Jenna and undergrad Emily! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Last Friday, Shivani Patel and Jihyeon 👩🏻‍🔬 had a wonderful opportunity to present a poster and flash talk at the Bristol Myers Squibb Women in Chemistry Outreach Day! Thank you to all the amazing individuals at BMS for funding and organizing this event! #WomeninChem 👩🏽‍🔬

Thank you so much to everyone at BMS for taking the time out to organize this fantastic event! I connected with so many inspiring women who shared their stories and gave me invaluable advice for my journey. I also received many helpful suggestions and questions during my poster.

Thrilled to share our latest work, by Jihyeon 👩🏻‍🔬 and Joseph Tassone, out in Org Lett now! ✨ We harness isocyanates for the synthesis of α-aliphatic quaternary amides with a Cp*Co(III) catalyst. Check it out below 👇🏼 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Big congrats to Jihyeon 👩🏻‍🔬 on her first first-author paper, and for driving this awesome project!

We are hiring a director for our Catalysis and Separations Core to further synthetic chemistry research by managing instrumentation and helping early career researchers perform experiments in the Core (csc.yale.edu). Learn more and apply at apply.interfolio.com/156577.

Exciting results out now in ACS Catalysis! Third year Ramsey and colleagues have developed a C-H bond sequential addition to dienes and imines with interesting mechanistic studies. 🟥+🔵+🔶 Check it out below: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Excited to share the results of the final year of my PhD - so proud of my former mentee, Ramsey, for turning this work into a mechanistic story worth reading!

Warm welcome to our new first years: Isaac, Owen, Emma, and Justin! Stay tuned to see all the amazing things they accomplish! 🤩🧪⚛️

We are pleased to share our latest collaboration with Dr. Chris Gnamm at Boehringer Ingelheim on the properties of diverse sulfilimines relevant to drug discovery. Amazing work Nate and Zach! 🤩 doi.org/10.1021/acs.jm…

New year, new group photo! 📸 Stay tuned to see more from the Ellman lab in 2025! 🧪💊
