@Honggen_W @MykhailiukChem This is some really cool chemistry. Tuning the HVI to allow alkyl shifts is really impressive. Well done all.

[Murphy Lab @MurphyLabUW]

I hear there is an excellent Hypervalent Iodine symposium happening.

Interested in attending Pacifichem 2025 in Honolulu, Hawaii from Dec. 15-20, 2025? Don't miss out on the key dates such as abstract submission and registration for the conference! https://t.co/EbwRTxhZ1i

[Murphy Lab @MurphyLabUW]

This is really cool! Come study STEM at @UWaterloo.

You never know who you are going to run into at #csc2024. Great seeing former student Liam (MSc 2021) again.

Interested in working with us to do either blue LED chemistry and/or reaction monitoring in flow?

We have a 600MHz magnet with a H/F/X TBO probe that you would get to play with.

Come work with us!!!

Big day in the Murphy lab. Ben is defending his MSc thesis on the deuteration of small molecule organics. He will be the first graduate from the deuterium side of our research program.

@awhspeed I have the decision notice and external reports. No comments file.

After receiving an interview request from @CTVKitchener, Dr. Mike Chong and I looked into why Cobalt(II) thiocyanate-based rapid cocaine tests show false positives with dehydrating agents. Hydrate (pink) and anhydrous (blue) cobalt chemistry, perhaps…

@WaterlooChem Iodine, of course!

It’s Science Alumni Achievement Awards Day at @WaterlooSci. Former UWaterloo undergrad @crjsteph is being honoured with the “Contributions to Science Award”. Welcome (back) to @WaterlooChem, Corey!

@LivSchneider_ @WaterlooChem Renovation of ESC 3rd floor. It’s looking good so far.

[Murphy Lab @MurphyLabUW]

It may not look like much yet, but by the 24/25 academic year, this is going to be a brand new, 14 hood lab space. Your bench could be in front of one of these HUGE windows. Come join us at @WaterlooChem for your MSc or PhD studies.

Editor's pick:
Montgomery and Murphy's @MurphyLabUW @UWaterloo Review article on the role of halogen bonding in #iodonium #ylides. Involving an overview on the key discoveries, reactivity, reaction control, and mechanistic proposals. #DOA 💎 in #BJOC.

@MarkStradiotto UWaterloo: Hold my beer. ON IT.

[Murphy Lab @MurphyLabUW]

So long Sweden! It was a great #ICHIC7 conference, but it’s time to go home and try some of those crazy new ideas.

[Murphy Lab @MurphyLabUW]

Getting ready for #ICHIC7 in Stockholm. Got my round-trip Arlanda Express ticket and a one-week transit pass loaded into the SL app. What do to first, Nobel Prize museum or flea markets?

[Alex Grenning @OChem_Grenning]

Y'all know #FloHet2024 is a grass roots effort, right?! Please help spread the word: RT, share with colleagues (Jr. Profs, graduate students, PDs!), and w/ anyone else whom would benefit form participating! Also, industry folks, PLEASE sponsor! 🙏 I'll do all the legwork! :)
