At what point might a synthetic route toward the WHO essential medicine natural product desferrioxamine B (Desferal) challenge the complex workflow associated with its current access by fermentation? Markham and Codd have the prognosis https://t.co/uWBxfIxgQB

Last PhD paper from my time @Flinders now in press at Tetrahedron. This one is secretly my favourite because there is nothing quite like a bit of Diels-Alder with tetrazines

Latest from my PhD @Flinders now live at Tetrahedron
Bit of fun with the natural pyrethrins and some palladium catalysis

The RACI is deeply concerned about the proposed cuts to 6 Academic positions within the School of Molecular Sciences (SMS), plans to target research and discontinue teaching in computational chemistry @uwanews. Read our Statement of Concern.

Read the second #AusJChem Primer Review, published in @AusJChem 74(6):
'The Chemistry of Cannabis and Cannabinoids' by Peter J. Duggan.

This Primer Review is published #OpenAccess, and is the @RACInational feature article. #OzChem

Today was a good day! After nearly four years I finally submitted my #phd thesis! All fingers and toes are crossed! For anyone who wants a glimpse check out our paper in @AusJChem https://t.co/JqviRTaOyX

By removing their oxidatively sensitive functionality, Pyrethrins were converted to their more stable jasmolin counterparts. This sought to alleviate the degradation of Pyrethrins commonly found in pyrethrum-based insecticides. Read more here: https://t.co/CSvlWSzrwd #AusJChem

It’s been a while in the making but our first foray into synthetic modification of the pyrethrins is online early in #AustJChem ! Best part is it’s open access!! https://t.co/JqviRTaOyX #OzChem #phdlife #openaccess

Friday nights in organic chemistry #OzChem #PhD

I think inverse electron demand Diels-Alders are my new favourite reactions #OzChem #synthesis

Spare day in #Tasmania working hard to deliver 👌🏻 #PhD #worktrip

[Todd Markham @OrganicTodd]

Despite the stress of doing a #PhD travelling is definitely a perk! Hellloooooo Tasmania!!! #Chem #travel
