@Bala_chem reports in our most recent paper how to transform a C-F bond either to a nucleophile or to an electrophile in @ScienceAdvances. This enables new ways for increasingly diverse C-F bond functionalization. See https://t.co/4UUVpS7aPg #RealTimeChem #hoyachem @GUChemistry

This is a neat Suzuki-Miyaura coupling with alkyl-F substrates from the Wolf lab @TheWolfPackGU at Georgetown @GUChemistry
Really like the access to benzyl nitriles as valuable intermediates for functionalization @JOC_OL asap

Our newest medchem paper in @MetabolitesMDPI with the Moussa Lab. Bala @Bala_chem & Ciarán @CCLynchChem developed new USP13 inhibitors that penetrate the brain and improve neurodegenerative pathology. Our compounds have potential for treatment of #Alzheimers & #Parkinsonsdisease

#HappyNewYear It has been a wonderful year for the Wolf Lab. We've published several papers, toured Mt. Vernon, hiked through great falls, welcomed a new member & concluded the year with the celebration of two successful PhDs.
We're excited to see what 2019 has in store for us!
