Great victory from Marcus! Want to oxidize something? This’ll do it.

Boravinylidenes are intermediates in 1,1-hydroboration reactions of alkynes en route to vinyl boranes. Unlike transition metal-vinylidene complexes, boravinylidenes have hitherto, not been crystall...

Awesome stuff from Marcus. The whole scope of I(III) chemistry we thing can be dialed up to 11 using carborane.

Marcus and co’s tour de force of iodination! Want to iodinate a difficult arene? This will do it.
pubs.acs.org
A method for iodinating deactivated aryl rings is reported using a greatly reduced quantity of H2SO4 (<1 vol %) compared with traditional methods, which often requires it as a bulk solvent. A new...

If the AI can do your assessment and this also bothers you….you can’t do that assessment anymore and are going to have to think of something else.

Of course. It’s called Research, not Refind.
What do you think, can you graduate and get a PhD if you did everything right but didn't get any original results worth publishing? I have a feeling most people would say 'no', but in my opinion it's a 'yes'. Where would science be if we don't try things that can fail?.

A great team effort here led by Marcus, for whom ‘this works OK’ was not nearly good enough and spent a year making it work awesome. Want to iodinate a difficult arene but don’t want to use straight H2SO4 as your solvent? This ‘ll do it.

Anything except funding at the level required to fulfil the mission requested of us.
Big news from @JasonClareMP!. @NTEUnion has won a federal govt crackdown on university governance, as reported in @australian: . We welcome this acknowledgement that uni governance is broken. For real change, join your union at ✊
