New paper in Chem. Sci.
Our latest paper is out in Chemical Science! We demonstrate twist-sense control in o-phenylenes by attaching various chiral imines. Close examination of structure–property effects gives a very detailed mechanism for this process.
New paper in Org. Lett.
Our latest paper is out in Org. Lett.! We show that simple changes to linker structure can be used to assemble ortho-phenylene-based macrocycles of different sizes and shapes.
New paper in J. Am. Chem. Soc.
Our latest paper is out in JACS. This is our first foray into nonequilibrium systems chemistry, where we show that carbodiimides are useful chemical fuels for dissipative covalent assembly.
New paper in J. Am. Chem. Soc.
Our latest paper is out in JACS. This work focuses on combining the folding of o-phenylenes with the assembly of macrocycles through dynamic covalent chemistry.
New paper in Org. Biomol. Chem.
Our latest paper is out in Org. Biomol. Chem.! This work focuses on how solvent affects the folding of o-phenylenes.
J. Chem. Educ. article featured on cover
Our recent J. Chem. Educ. article is featured on the cover of the June 2016 issue.
New paper in Angew. Chem.
Fengfeng’s work on using imine formation to assemble stacked structures has been published in Angew. Chem.! The culmination of a lot of work.
New paper in Acc. Chem. Res.
Scott’s published a review on the folding of ortho-phenylenes (focused mostly on our own work).
New paper in J. Phys. Chem. B
Our latest paper is out in J. Phys. Chem. B! This work, a collaboration with the Kumar group (Kent State, Physics), describes new sanidic liquid crystal phases for a series of dibenzonaphthacenes we prepared.
