This (via Andrew Gelman via Kevin Drum) is embarrassing and frustrating. It’s good to catch math errors ahead of time. But there’s a larger point here, which is that the chemical industry is opaque about what’s in consumer products, and it shouldn’t be. chemsky 🧪 nationalpost.com/news/canada/...

So excited to share our work on learning more about EAM catalysis on scale! Featuring two of our favorites: nickel and boron 🤓 Who knew there were so many ways to make hydrogen in a borylation reaction 🤪 Congrats to all the co-authors! #BMSChemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Taylorism is a management philosophy based on using scientific optimization to maximize labor productivity and economic efficiency. Here's the result of making the false Taylorist assumption that the output of scientific research is scientific papers—the more, faster, and cheaper, the better.

Attaching the septum upside down onto a 20 mL scintillation vial in a glove box, inserting a needle attached to vacuum tubing, removing solvent. If the volume is small enough, warming the vial with my gloved hands to (hopefully) have a pure product in hand ❤️

Since things are really heating up here, let me share a personal favorite: The "Best-Practice DFT" article by Markus, Andreas, Stefan @grimmelab.bsky.social, and myself. We cast 50+ years of collective experience into "a travelers guide to modern #compchem". Enjoy the ride: doi.org/10.1002/ange...

It seems like the answer to whether there was an Organometallic starter pack was no so here's one - send me a message or comment and I can add you! #chemsky go.bsky.app/RhG7mRD

More Fe(Cpᴺ³) chemistry now published in Organometallics! Each hydride reagent yields a different product, and we observe iron formyl intermediates in two out of three cases. A DFT collab with @grimmelab.bsky.social was vital to understand reaction mechanisms. 💻 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
