Yo, which one of y’all is responsible for this monstrosity? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PG5_(mo... #chemsky #realtimechem

Here’s the answer (and #18!) #mechanismmonday I shan’t torment y’all - the mechanism for it pulled direct from this v nice ASAP Org Lett - pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... A lot of crossing the t’s in late stage process often means impurity ID/synthesis and they’re always weird dimers/trimers! 👹do

Happy #MechanismMonday y’all! #chemsky #realtimechem Answer soon - love this paper, will tell y’all why tomorrow - actually not just because of this step! ☺️

anyway me and one of the OG lab homies went out to Houston in March before he headed overseas for work (🥲) and guess what y’all: they’re kind of still there 🙌 😎 and so is my handwriting and 🐈 cats

my last month in the lab at University of Houston in 2020 I drew smth on my hood every day and I think I’ve posted about this before but I just found an actually good photo of the whole thing!! #chemsky

I promise I got y’all with a problem too, but I’ve thought of a New Thing. It is hereby #tunetuesday. Today’s a Joey Bada$$ day if there ever was one. open.spotify.com/track/4PnNzW...

Hey y’all, if you were a WRESTLEMANIA WRESTLER what would your WALK OUT SONG be? #forscience 💪

Here’s the answer! (: More soon! #mechanismmonday

I can SOLEMNLY VOW to post AT LEAST ONE answer tomorrow because the top problem was submitted to be used on a Synthesis exam (and was featured as a BONUS PROBLEM 😭) in like… 2018?! 😭 ⌛️ 🪽 #mechanismmonday #erastour

Heheheh this was my revenge bedtime procrastination today… I am playing Blue Prince on my work BFFs rec and I’m too immersed…! 🫐 🤴 It’s still Monday, anyway… 😏 #mechanismmonday #realtimechem #chemsky

Buonasera! Today’s #mechanismmonday arrives just under the wire: can you solve it?! Answer soon! #realtimechem #chemsky

1/3! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1... (:

This is from a Prof. Jeremy May: Synthesis (2015) problem set, LOL! Vintage #mechanismmonday! ✨🪩 #chemsky

First answer! 😎 Many #mechanismmondays. Next one tomorrow. (: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

A Monday is incomplete without a mechanism as a treat! :) 🍭 I never know what to write for these - here are some problems! I’ll be posting answers starting tomorrow - I’ve already got these and the previous ones written out! 👼🤠 #mechanismmonday #chemsky

This whole interview is outstanding chemsky 🧪 english.elpais.com/science-tech...

So great to see so many people of so many generations out for #HandsOff in Chicago yesterday. Stop the steal! #50501 @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social

DOUBLE FEATURE! Problem #2 of 6 of the backlog! 😎 #mechanismmonday #chemsky

SURPRISE! 🤩 It’s #mechanismmonday! By my calculations 🧮 I am six (6) problems behind for the year. We’ll call this #1 of 6. #chemsky

This one was yet ANOTHER crossover episode with an absolutely incredible repository of mechanism problems WITH SOLUTIONS! Nagoya lab group meeting problem archive: www.ps.nagoya-u.ac.jp/lab_pages/na... (Thanks to my coworker Todd Hovey for putting me on to it! 😎)

Y’all I’m doing it! I’m determined to catch up on these! 💪💪 #mechanismmonday #chemsky

As a student, I was inspired to pursue a career in pharma by reading about the amazing synthetic chemistry innovations that were happening there. I hope this article can do the same for the next generation of pharmaceutical chemists. #MerckChemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

People sure do love fascism when they think they’re going to be the exception to the rules.

The ACS Division of Organic Chemistry welcomes you to the Spring ACS 2025 meeting in San Diego! We have fantastic sessions (see below) and events this week. Stay tuned!

... this new Apple Pencil is incompatible with my generation of iPad. but I found my old one while packing! but it's in Chicago and I'm in Arizona answerSSSSSS when I'm back (thursday) #mechanismmonday #chemsky

Ion and I have good news about Monday and the presence of Mechanisms on it again 💪 #chemsky
