Thank you to @cenmag for sharing the work that I had the opportunity of being a part of. Have a read and see how curved anthracene molecules can be used to store solar energy. Thanks to @GraceGDHan for this amazing opportunity.
Researchers have made a curved form of anthracene, an organic compound, that captures and stores sunlight in its chemical bonds, releasing the energy as heat when triggered hours later.

Thanks @physorg_com for highlighting our work on curved anthracene for solar energy storage. I am honored and grateful to share it with the scientific community.
#Curved anthracene molecules efficiently absorb #VisibleLight, store #SolarEnergy as chemical bonds, and release heat on demand, offering a solvent-free advance in molecular solar thermal storage. https://t.co/WSOBFNn7SK

I am very happy to share my first academic work as second author. We have designed and developed anthracene molecules that can store solar energy and release as heat upon triggering. Thanks to everyone involved.

A SILVER BULLET FOR TERPENE SYNTHESIS, published today in @ScienceMagazine : https://t.co/UbyeL6mGp8 - Behind the scenes at Openflask: https://t.co/5RVHiMiViS - Phil doing the reaction:
Today in @ChemRxiv ( https://t.co/fgLaxGNCu9) we present an unusually efficient solution (4 years in the making) to a classic challenge in terpene synthesis enabled by electrocatalysis (Ag-nanoparticle electrodes!) and radical retrosynthesis.

Excited to share our latest study showing the deterministic influence of macrocyclophane size + geometric components for predictable site-selectivity in C–H activation in @J_A_C_S w/ @YulabJin. More applications of our findings still to come. https://t.co/j9gAHabYYt

The ability to differentiate and selectively activate remote C–H bonds represents a perennial challenge in the field of C–H activation. Since its first report in 2012, a now-established “directing...

I feel like some folks outside of US might be a bit confused how PhD students in chemistry here are being funded. A short 🧵 on it: 1. When you are admitted to a program, you receive a letter that states that you will be guaranteed funding for at least 5 years.
