@NMRspectroscopy No, just no.... 7.23-7.12 (m, 3H) 😉

@kurtilaszlo @J_A_C_S This was our mechanism problem at Haley/Jasti joint group meeting tonight! Brilliant work, Laszlo - I look forward to hearing more in October when I return home to my alma mater in Houston.

@pi_complexity @borylation I recognize many of those faces!

@keyanl10 @ACSChemRev A beast!

Memorial Day weekend means one thing - BBQ!!! And a big salute 🫡 to those that have kept this country safe for 250 years!

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

THIS 👇 – DO IT if you can!!! I have attended every ISNA meeting since 1992 in Victoria, BC. Absolutely the BEST conference for all things related to aromaticity/conjugated molecules! A great community of scientists and I always learn fascinating new stuff every meeting.

ISNA-21 is this coming August 9-14th — we hope you will join us in Beijing! Some important deadlines are coming up at the end of June:
1. Abstract submission
2. Early bird registration
Check out the website (https://t.co/otSO8i2HzE) and follow the links for all the details.

@ArthurHWinter Saw this yesterday - very cool!

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

$65M recurring debt??? HOW did our overpaid administrators not see this train wreck coming?!?!? EVERY administrator should take an immediate 10% pay cut & every Dean/Provost/President a 20% cut. UO will be utterly decimated by this incompetence... #UOwe

@FindlaterGroup I sent you a DM, but yes, salary bump and unrestricted funds for research, conferences, whatever!

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

@CruzCarlosM Cool stuff, Carlos!

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

@RJGilliard Like there would be any doubt?!?!? 😉 You're doing things with B that few could imagine!

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

Very cool – the UO "IFers" approve!

[Robert J. Gilliard, Jr. @RJGilliard]

Our manuscript on the redox activity and near-infrared optical properties of doubly boron-doped indenofluorenes (DBIF) is now published in @J_A_C_S (https://t.co/tAtzZJGUY6)! Colleen debuts the DB[2,1-b ]IF isomer and an unusual 19π e- IF! #maingroup @DavidJDWilson

Decided this past weekend was time as garden beds 1 & 3 are fully planted–tomatoes, peppers & eggplant in bed 1 and lettuce, fennel, tomatillo, garlic, bok choy & cherry tomatoes in bed 3. Bed 2 still a work in progress. Bok choy is delicious! #chemistswhogarden #chemistswhocook

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

Plants & more plants—early April and the "pre-garden" is going strong! Now waiting for it to be consistently >45 F/7 C at night before I stick them in the ground. That said, lettuces & other greens have already supplied my 1st full pot of 100% homegrown salad! #chemistswhogarden

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

Very cool!

[Marek Grzybowski @MarekGrb]

Our paper about Donor-Acceptor Pentacene Analogues is finally online in Angewandte Chemie 🎉
My sincere thanks to all co-authors for the great collaboration!

My god – talk about air travel whiplash!!! Trip to ATL for ACS meeting = 5 min in EUG for security. Trip next to Germany for mini-symposium = 80 min in ATL security AND 110 min to clear customs in FRA. Flight home = 15 min total in FRA and 10 min total in DEN. WTF?!?!?

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

Proud "papa" moment in ATL before the start of the ACS meeting – left is Asst Prof Jeremy Bard (Washington Coll) and right is Assoc Prof Blake Tresca (Kalamazoo Coll) – could not be more proud of these two as alumni of the joint Haley/Johnson supramolecular chemistry project.

What a tremendous loss for the novel aromatics/hydrocarbon community. Henning welcomed me at ISNA-8 in Braunschweig in 1995 like a full-fledged colleague even though I was a young no-name assistant professor. That was the kind of person he was. RIP my friend – you'll be missed!😢

🌻Henning Hopf passed away on March 12 only three months after his 85th birthday https://t.co/273DBl6NYF
A great organic chemist who had deeply cared about our community—a true “mensch”—has left us. Lives in Chemistry https://t.co/DBaasuTW4p lost a most insightful Advisory Board member who had enormously contributed to this endeavor from the beginning.

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

@sascha_feldmann Thank you - this has been great fun and 100% of the credit goes to Megan and Nolan.

[Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry @UOHaleyLab]

It’s official!
