Electrochemistry
In light of recent blog posts, we would like to formally announce that our lab is moving to an abandoned home depot somewhere in rural western Wyoming.
Young Brando is "excited to have two full hoods to himself," and Taycoh said, "with the new space and low overhead costs, we should be able to have a lab of two- to three-hundred students."
The ATF will be providing funding for new research on the novel chemoselective syntheses of ethan-1-ol and ethan-2-ol.
Phil's children's love of adorable farm animals may have influenced the move.
Stay tuned for more information!

By now, everyone has heard that The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) is in talks to be acquired by the University of Southern California (USC). There has been rampant speculation on the Internet that this is all about TSRI’s funding problems and USC’s...

Disappointment, frustration, excitement, setbacks, thrill, and success. It has been a roller-coaster ride, but finally the reward is here. A total synthesis of ingenol from our lab was published online today. The chemistry is all described in the paper,...

Figure 1. Snaaaaaakeeeee, a snaaaaaakeeeee! Ahh benzene! Europeans fear it, I love the smell of it, and it can look like a snake (Figure 1)! What isn't there to love? Not to mention its qualities as a solvent, and its utility in the azeotropic removal...

We'll start things off with our lab's recent synthesis of ouabagenin. We'll skip the biological relevance of the molecule for the purpose of this blog and go straight to the actual synthesis. Read more »...
