Russia was a cheerleader for Brexit and has funded and supported all those who delivered it. They want a weak & divided Europe. Now you see why. #Ukraine

Asymmetric organocatalysis existed long before the 1990s (e.g. Hajos-Parrish reaction) and there was then key early work from Denmark, Jacobsen, Corey, Miller etc. But the Nobel goes to those who conceptualised & built the field - List & McMillan. https://t.co/WmagBRrolI

Cooperative Copper-Squaramide Catalysis for the Enantioselective N-H Insertion Reaction with Sulfoxonium Ylides - now published in Chemical Science https://t.co/zHkp2wvZk2 Very happy! Celebrating our just published paper on the chemistry of sulfoxonium ylides.
pubs.rsc.org
The first examples of a highly efficient and enantioselective carbene-mediated insertion reaction, from a sulfur ylide, are described. By way of a catalytic asymmetric insertion reaction into N–H...

That we were worried about this verdict shows how far there is to go. #RestInPower #GeorgeFloyd
A reminder that victory would be George Floyd being alive. Every day Black Americans worry if they will be next is another day without justice.

George Floyd's killer has been convicted on all three counts. #Guilty. While there can never be a perfect level of Justice given in response to Big Floyd's life being taken, I hope his family finds some form of peace in this verdict. #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

#GeorgeFloyd should still be alive. Justice has been served in this case but there is more work to be done. Liberation for Black lives mean liberation for us all. We must continue to lean into the discomfort of dismantling white supremacy and rebuilding communities of care.
