Today in ChemRxiv, we report the direct catalytic photodecarboxylative amination of carboxylic acids with diazirines. 50 examples are demonstrated across primary, secondary, and tertiary acids for the preparation of amines, hydrazines and heterocycles. go.shr.lc/3xlDxqm

Thank you so much Karol for the kind words and your inspiring lecture. I am very happy to hear that you had a great time at WIPOS 2023. Hope to see you again at future WIPOS editions! In fact, WIPOS 2024 will be held Dec 16-19, 2024 in Hawaii. Please spread the word about it!

Another 4 young investigators are speaking at the morning session of WIPOS 2023 on Day #2. Currently Professor Lara Malins is sharing her research on late-stage peptide modifications.

During the first part of the morning session on Day #2 at WIPOS 2023 (wipos.org), we are hearing lectures from 4 young investigators. At the moment Prof. Julia Kalow is describing new and exciting findings in her lab for materials discovery.

The Plenary Lecture at WIPOS 2023 (wipos.org) is under way. Professor Scott Miller is presenting his lecture entitled 'Search for Selective Catalytic Reactions in Complex Molecular Environments'. Today we will hear lectures from 11 young investigators.

Welcome to Hawaii and WIPOS 2023, Wes! This is just the beginning of a several days of meeting and networking with fellow chemists and learning about cutting edge science in a warm and welcoming tropical setting!

Check out our latest publication regarding the use of nitrenium ions as versatile reagents for electrophilic amination.
Congratulations to the team. Kuldeep Singh

Thrilled to announce Prof. Scott J. Miller Miller Group as the Plenary Speaker at WIPOS 2023 (wipos.org, December 18-21, 2023) in Honolulu, HI. Register at signup.rice.edu/WIPOS2023/ to hear 42 speakers, present posters, network with organic chemists and have fun!

We are delighted that our work on the iron-catalyzed directing-group-free arene C(sp2)–H amination is now published in JOC (pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…). Congrats to the Rice and BYU teams: Young-Do (Young Do Kwon), Nicole (@nbehnke6), Michael (@Davenportmichae) and Professor Daniel Ess!

I had a truly amazing visit to Freiburg and the famous Black Forest. Thanks so much for your warm hospitality and for the many outstanding experiences in terms of food, culture, history and locations - see you both in Goa, India at the end of October!

Thank you for the warm hospitality, the chemistry discussions and the generous gift of Cuban cigars! I enjoyed my visit to Halle very much! After spending three weeks in Germany (Giessen, Freiburg and Halle), I will be returning to Houston next week.

Very excited to participate in the 3rd Winter In-Person Organic Symposium in Honolulu - what a great list of speakers Laszlo has arranged! Hope to see you HI this December

Come to Honolulu in December for excellent science and spectacular sunsets!

Registration is now open for the 3rd Winter In_Person Organic Symposium (WIPOS 2023): signup.rice.edu/WIPOS2023; Please check out the testimonials from WIPOS 2022 participants: wipos.org/testimonials/ and the current speaker lineup: wipos.org/speakers/. See you in Hawaii!

I am thrilled to announce that the 3rd Winter In-Person Organic Symposium (WIPOS 2023) will take place December 18-21, 2023 in Honolulu at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. The speaker lineup is amazing: wipos.org/speakers/. Register @ signup.rice.edu/WIPOS2023/. Max. 150 attendees.
