Hot off the press: Check out our report on a procedure to rapidly access Z,Z,Z-conjugated trienes @angew_chem: doi.org/10.1002/anie.2025027…
A great collaboration led by Nhan Ton @NuHongNhanTon1 with two computational chemists: Thomas Fallon @Thomas__Fallon and Binh Mai @khanhbinh183
We are recruiting a postdoc with a strong background in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry to work towards new drug development for women's healthcare. The position is for 2 years with a possible extension of another year, starting ASAP.

We’re celebrating 75years at UNSW and 145 years since our first laboratories were built here in Pitt St in 1879. @UNSWChemSociety @UNSWScience

Here is the promised update! Now the EPA has released their statement we can reveal all the disgusting details of the ‘tar balls’....
...which are actually human-generated waste of fat and grease!
Here’s what @UNSWScience and MWAC found… thread below! 🧵

Congratulations to Dr. Felix Rizzuto @FelixRizzuto
@UNSWChemSociety on receiving one of two 2024 prestigious Moderna Australia Fellowship! #ozchem #mRNA #AIMS2024 #Moderna – at Melbourne, Victoria
#HappyDiwali2024 to all that celebrating this great festival. Our very own Suji Sharma treated us with an amazing three course meal during group meeting today. #ozchem

At @UNSWScience we have been investigating the tar balls that washed up on Coogee and other Sydney beaches.
What do we know (and not know!) so far?
Here comes our thread!
Many thanks to @PolyzosAP of the @PolyzosLab for being so kind giving us his excellently designed photoreactor, which was instrumental for this project.
It's fun to decipher reaction mechanism with meticulously designed control experiments. This paper from our group is All About That Base(-mediated oxidative 1,2-aryl migration) #ozchem

In #OrgLett: @NguyenLabUNSW reports interesting mechanistic insights into a 1,2-aryl migration in the visible-light mediated reaction between benzoquinones, alkynes and diamines to form quinoxaline derivatives go.acs.org/bas

1/2 A team of UNSW chemists led by Prof. @NeerajChemUNSW have developed a novel battery component that could make lithium-ion batteries more efficient, affordable and sustainable.
The secret ingredient is food-based acids 🍊

Great to see our two recent papers highlighted in Chemistry in Australia, a @RACInational magazine #ozchem
If you haven't read them yet, they are both open-access:

Proudly present our novel molecular framework: more bent -> more blue-shifted with increased PLQY
#ozchem Project led by Domenic Pace, in collaboration with @RCrckr and teams of @wallacexwong, @khanhbinh183 and @schmidtim, now on @AdvOpticalMat:

Great visit to the Justus von Liebig museum, with a special tour guide being @prsgroupjlu himself. Amazing to hear about Liebig’s revolutionary vision in organic chemistry and agricultural science. Liebig was the one shaping up how we still do organic chemistry education today.
