- Congratulations to Steve and Prof. Hartwig on winning the Wolf Prize in Chemistry!
- We report in @J_A_C_S a versatile method for the challenging Pd-catalyzed C−N cross-coupling of base-sensitive five-membered heteroaryl halides with primary and secondary amines. Check out Elaine, Kaibo, and @aaroncsather's (@Merck) work here:
- Congratulations!Lucky & happy to be on the stage of @CSIR_IND on September 26 with @AtBiju and all recipients of Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award 2022. Heartfelt thanks to my students, mentors—@KarlinLab, @BuchwildGroup, @GKLahiri @iitbombay, family, friends and colleagues. @dm_lab 🙏
- Congratulations to Elaine Reichert for her successful PhD defense! Who can identify the ligand on the cake?
- We designed a new class of anionic ligands that facilitate copper-catalyzed C–N cross coupling reactions at room temperature! Great work by @seoungtae_kim, @Strauss_MJ, and @alcamo92 (now at @LillyPad), now on @ChemRxiv – read more here:New DFT-designed ligands enable Cu-catalyzed C-N coupling at room temperature, now on @ChemRxiv. Glad to have worked with my colleague Seoung-Tae Kim and the rest of the @BuchwildGroup on this project chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…chemrxiv.orgRoom Temperature Cu-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl Bromides Enabled by DFT-Guided Ligand Design |...Ullman-type C–N coupling reactions represent an important alternative to well-established Pd-catalyzed approaches due to the differing reactivity and the lower cost of Cu. While the design of anionic...
- Looking for some "light" reading tonight? Check out this quite fascinating mechanistic paper by Mike and Richard!

- Congratulations to Levi for successfully defending his PhD!!
- Memorial day weekend BBQ with the Buchwald group - who is going to be this year's cornhole champion? Steve sure looks corn-centrated 🌽🌽🌽
- Congrats to Steve for receiving the 2019 Roger Adams Award at the NOS from Jeff Aubé!
- Congratulations to our newest Drs. Saki and Bryan for finishing their wild defenses today! It's been an honor working with you both!
