Interested in hearing about new results in the Mindiola group? John Russell and Shuruthi will be presenting posters on Sunday from 12-2 (Hall F2) and giving back to back talks on Sunday at 2:20 (W181a). Dr. Mindiola will be giving a talk at 4:15 on Monday (W178b) #ACSFall2022

For those asking why Jay keeps yelling about BOBROVSKY 😂

We have a post-doc opening in catalysis/polymer chemistry. Here is the application portal but feel free to write to me directly if you have questions. explore.jobs.ufl.edu/en-us/job/5280… ACS PMSE Division ACSINORDivision ACS POLY Division

Don't forget to check out John Russell talk today (09:20-09:40, Room 155, South Bldg) on the synthesis of cyclic conjugated polymers from metallacyclobutadiene catalysts made from a simple salt metathesis reaction!

Highly recommend looking into this program!

Check out our latest paper spearheaded by John Russell and Debabrata Konar. Our first of two papers describing the formation of cyclic conjugated polymers with early transition metal complexes. Congrats to all those involved! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

I'm happy to share that my first publication from Grad school has been published online! In this work, we describe a streamlined synthesis of catalysts that produce cyclic conjugated polymers. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Iconic status

Metallacyclobuta-(2,3)-diene: A Bidentate Ligand for Stream-line Synthesis of First Row Transition Metal Catalysts for Cyclic Polymerization of Phenylacetylene (Daniel J. Mindiola and co-workers) Mindiola Group Brent Sumerlin Adam Veige onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Paper number 2️⃣!!! Another contribution to the emerging field of cyclic conjugated polymers! ⭕⭕⭕

The #GroundhogDay results are in! Phil didn’t see his shadow, meaning we'll have... an early spring! #sponsored by Bristol Myers Squibb

3️⃣❗ Catalyst deactivation may be a taboo subject in some chemical circles yet Sarah Smith and I discuss a potential pathway with our cyclic polymer catalyst. Also soliciting suggestions for bidentate anionic ligands for us to use for this system.

We are spring-opening into spring! 🐣🐇🌹🌷🌻⚘ Paper 4️⃣ discusses how simply changing from carbon to nitrogen in a metallacycle allows for isolation of complexes analogous to relevant intermediates in cyclic polymerization reactions. ⭕

Come check out our lastest work now in J. Am. Chem. Soc. Congrats to Shuruthi and co-workers for there amazing job on this story!
