Assistant Professor at @Rutgers_Chem, mildly obsessed with ligand design. Opinions fueled by espresso. 🇨🇦 in the 🇺🇸 (with 🇺🇦 roots). Pronounced “Dem-yahn”
Newark, NJ
Joined July 2013
Fun project led by @DavidTresp with DFT by Tim Schramm (Grimme Lab) now published. Satisfying to see DFT data agreeing so well with expt (most < 1 kcal/mol!). New dimensions in PCET thermochem unlocked with Cpᴺ³ and Fe. Thx to all other collaborators! 😄.

Super busy summer for PhD defenses - Lirong Lin (holding the blue bubbly!) recently defended her thesis titled "Using Diamondoid Pincer Ligands and C(sp3)-H Activation Models at Group 10 Transition Metals." . All very the very best in the next stages of your career! #ProudPI 🙂

Huge shout out to my brother in law Igor who just completed a monumental achievement: Ironman triathlon! He jumped straight from doing a couple triathlons a few years ago to training for the big kahuna. Was a very emotional race for him, and the fam is incredibly proud. ❤️

How is this “a viable alternative to the Haber–Bosch process for producing ammonia” if the nitrate runoff is coming from the Haber-Bosch process in the first place? Am I missing something here?. “a viable process for scavenging unused ammonia” makes more sense to me.
As the technique works with works with water containing realistic concentrations of nitrate, it's believed that it could provide a viable alternative to the Haber–Bosch process for producing ammonia.

Really proud of PhD #3, David Tresp . Not only is he a fine researcher, but he’s our de facto handyman. Glove boxes, pumps, crystallography, voltammetry, synthesis, and many more impressive talents under his belt. Congrats!!! 🥳

New allotrope of nitrogen just dropped!!.
A rather spectacular contribution to nitrogen chemistry.
