Ramon Arora

PhD graduate

[Mark Lautens OC @MarkLautens]

PhD #60 is @RamonArora

A very good excuse to enjoy a glass of top notch champagne 🍾 🥂 and congratulate him doing some excellent chemistry.

Ramon’s next step is a great job in Boston.

Mine is heading back to the Office of the Chair @UofTArtSci @chemuoft

[Mark Lautens OC @MarkLautens]

Well @angew_chem did not tag the right Lautens but I am nonetheless pleased to see this work published.

Thanks to @RamonArora who had the idea to review the topic and Phil, a 1st year grad student, who was a key contributor.

P.S. My original family name was Lautenschlager😉

We are very happy to share with you that our group received the ERC Advanced Grant for our project PHOTOZYME 🎉🍾 Congratulations to @Melchiorre_P and all group members! @ERC_Research @Unibo
Stay tuned for new developments in photobiocatalysis 🦠💡

While in the past solo efforts were common in the group, they have become less frequent in recent years since we host many visitors from abroad, and they often pair up and share authorship.

This effort by @RamonArora is a throwback to those earlier days.

Congratulations x1

Check out our latest paper in @ACSCatalysis! Here we report a nickel/visible light catalyzed carbohalogenation of aryl iodides and aryl bromides. Congratulations to @RamonArora and @MarkLautens.

[Mark Lautens OC @MarkLautens]

The group has been busy, even as I learn the job of Chair @chemuoft

@RamonArora and Jon Bajohr put this work together - combining two of our favorite reactions.

Some very sweet heterocycles.

Thanks to all the team including @RamonArora who got the ball rolling and assembled the team, @BijanMirabi who did the computational work, @A_Aspuru_Guzik and his outstanding team members.

I am the conductor so I wave my arms a lot.

@NaOHBartfield @BijanMirabi he’s at it again

[pec_idk @idk_pec]

Meeting with the Chair. Thanks @MarkLautens to make time for me. I was excited to learn about your Ni-photochemistry. Only one step on the periodic table to #copper_rocks

[Ramon Arora @RamonArora]

@racheljbaker17 @thermofisher @QuCHEE Can @BijanMirabi and I borrow that scale?

[Mark Lautens OC @MarkLautens]

It’s a wrap. PhDone for Dr Bijan Mirabi ⁦@BijanMirabi⁩ #57

Heading off to a top job in industry straight from his degree.

He did it all, synthesis, computation, medicinal chemistry with ⁦@thesgconline⁩ catalysis, methodology and mechanism.

Sad to see you go.
