@sciencescanner I was about to comment on this! The question is not "Do you want it?" but rather "How much do you want it and how much do you want to spend to get it?"

[David Fox @medchemist125]

@sciencescanner Around the same time that "burglarise" did maybe.

It was going to happen.

@sciencescanner @Dereklowe Completely agree. Here for the med chem.

@Dereklowe This reminds me that Stuart Warren used to suggest that students could remember typical IR stretches for ketones and esters as they correspond to the dates of the first and second Jacobite rebellions.

[David Fox @medchemist125]

@RxCelerate @RxChemistry Indeed. The biology can't tell how hard it was to make the molecule. Keep the chemistry simple for as long as you can.

Home from holiday.

[David Fox @medchemist125]

@sciencescanner Me too, and agreed!

[David Fox @medchemist125]

@timballoo ...but you could do maths in base 12!

@lisa_carden There is a chance that your teacher never explained it like this! Great video.

@NASA @AstroMCollins Amazing achievements with nerves of steel. One of the greats.

@Dereklowe Run. Away.

Personal Reflection: Empathy In The Workplace

Life isn't always easy, and many of us have a lot going on underneath the facade, but its the emotional connectedness with others that makes all the difference. To those that have been there for me, thx you

@ndchiappini Depends on what kind of coupling you need but TMEDA may be useful.

@HartungIngo Previously the Pd was in the carbonate base.

[RxCelerate @RxCelerate]

Think scale-up chemistry is about engineering? If so prepare yourself for some expensive delays in your small-molecule program

#DrugBaron points out the challenge - and explains why @RxCelerate can help you avoid the pitfalls: https://t.co/ep8q0NE5Dx
