Our latest #MOST system using curved anthracene’s Dewar isomerization is now on @cenmag news ☀️🔋Thank you @KMothPoulsen and @Diego__Sampedro for nice quotes 😊 Proud of the team! https://t.co/5SIQ9sINZo @cenmag

Thank you to @cenmag for sharing the work that I had the opportunity of being a part of. Have a read and see how curved anthracene molecules can be used to store solar energy.
Thanks to @GraceGDHan for this amazing opportunity.

Researchers have made a curved form of anthracene, an organic compound, that captures and stores sunlight in its chemical bonds, releasing the energy as heat when triggered hours later. https://t.co/vWe5RyRGhp

Thanks @physorg_com for highlighting our work on curved anthracene for solar energy storage. I am honored and grateful to share it with the scientific community.

#Curved anthracene molecules efficiently absorb #VisibleLight, store #SolarEnergy as chemical bonds, and release heat on demand, offering a solvent-free advance in molecular solar thermal storage. https://t.co/WSOBFNn7SK https://t.co/6Mum8jxZjm

I am very happy to share my first academic work as second author. We have designed and developed anthracene molecules that can store solar energy and release as heat upon triggering. Thanks to everyone involved.

Excited to share our latest study showing the deterministic influence of macrocyclophane size + geometric components for predictable site-selectivity in C–H activation in @J_A_C_S w/ @YulabJin. More applications of our findings still to come.

I feel like some folks outside of US might be a bit confused how PhD students in chemistry here are being funded. A short 🧵 on it:
1. When you are admitted to a program, you receive a letter that states that you will be guaranteed funding for at least 5 years.

Galbulimima space is a trove of neuroactive alkaloids.

Here we access class III antispasmodic himgaline in 7 steps, down from 19 steps.
We're now assigning biological targets in search of therapeutic leads and the psychotropic principles.
