Mission impossible: 5-membered heteroarynes (cue thrilling musical stinger) Some supercool science from Courtney Roberts and team in my latest for C&EN (Chemical & Engineering News) : cen.acs.org/synthesis/Five…
Roberts Group at UMN is a team of both organic & inorganic chemists who worked on creating a chemical compound that could lead to new drug treatments, safer agricultural products, & better electronics. Read more at z.umn.edu/ChemicalCompou… @umnews @umnresearch UMN Department of Chemistry
Check out our awesome collaboration with Aleksandr Zhukhovitskiy in J. Am. Chem. Soc. on skeletal editing of polymers via Pd-catalyzed 3,3-sigmatropic rearrangements! There are *so many* exciting possibilities with this chemistry and I'm thrilled to see what we can do in this space!
PhD Candidate Alexander Umanzor (Alex Umanzor) of the Roberts Group at UMN was recently named a CAS Future Leader. We are lucky to have grad students like Alex who are #DriventoDiscover! 👏👏👏 #UMNProud cse.umn.edu/chem/news/alex…
Congrats to jenna humke on a successful PhD thesis defense! Jenna made an immeasurable impact on the Roberts Group at UMN and tackled our most challenging project on accessing “inaccessible” arynes! I’m so thankful for her many contributions to the group!
Congrats to Roberts Group at UMN former postdoc Roman Belli!! Roman is a tremendous chemist and I am so grateful for his many contributions to the group! I cannot wait to see what comes from his group during his independent career!!
🚨 Super excited to share that I’ll be an Assistant Professor at the University of Winnipeg! Can’t wait to get my research started! 👨🏻🔬 Special shout out to my amazing mentors Courtney Roberts and Lisa Rosenberg for all their support along the way!
Congrats to rising 5th year grad students Brylon Denman (Brylon Denman) and Chris Seong (Chris Seong) for receiving UMN Doctoral Dissertation Fellowships!! cse.umn.edu/chem/news/seve…
UMN UMN Department of Chemistry represented at the ACS Organic Division Graduate Research Symposium!! Here's me, Serena DiLiberti and Chris Seong on the beautiful campus of the Univ of Virginia 💕 2nd photo taken by Angie R Angeles 🥰
Check out our further explorations of the effects of f-block metal identity on electronic structure & catalysis, out now in Inorganic Chemistry ! Congrats to the team Nick Garcia Tori Tafuri & Rana!! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
Congrats to Josh Gavin PhD #4 from the Roberts Group at UMN! We will miss Josh’s irreplaceable selfie taking skills and helpfulness around the lab! Keep your eyes open for Josh’s next paper on an exciting new aryne difunctionalization method which should be out in a few days!
A top question we get asked about the N-heterocyclic aryne chemistry is “what other ligands have you tried?” Here is part of the answer! Now out from Erin Plasek Roman Belli and Douglas Roberts Group at UMN ! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
Entering our free aryne era! Check out our newest paper on the aminohalogenation of arynes! Congrats to recent PhD Josh Gavin and our star undergrad Lars! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
