Need some more nitrogen in your life? Check out my latest paper on some fascinating nitrogen-rich iridacycles! Many thanks to co-authors @kingak333 @FuShengWang0138, and ofcourse @Alex_Zhuko!
Excited to share this discovery by @DrakeChem and team in the @ZhukoGroup of "IrN5" rings! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102… Also, my personal first @Orgmet_ACS paper! Crucial help from @kingak333 and @FuShengWang0318! @uncchemistry
Metathesis doesn't stop with olefins - get our mechanism-focused perspective of some fascinating chemistry here!

My man Andy!
Congrats to Andrew (@kingak333) for being selected for the Excellence in Graduate Polymer Research Symposium!
A good day! Check it out for quite a unique metathesis mechanism and some versatile polycarbodiimides - thanks to everyone who helped us out along the way!
Big congrats to @DrakeChem, team @ZhukoGroup, and Sheiko group collaborators @uncchemistry on the publication of our @ACSCentSci paper on carbodiimide ring-opening metathesis polymerization to access nitrogen-rich polymer backbones! doi.org/10.1021/acscentsci.3…
To anyone who's still around at #ACSSpring2023, I'd be thrilled to see you at my talk tomorrow! 8:40am in Regency Ballroom A.
Let's go! Thrilled to have our work out there - if you like metathesis, check it out! Thanks to everyone who helped out both in lab and around the department!
Our development of carbodiimide ring-opening metathesis polymerization (CDI ROMP) is out now on ChemRxiv! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Hi everyone, @organomimetic, @AthinaAnastasa1 and I started a non-profit called Care4Ukr to help connect those affected by the war in Ukraine with psychologists/therapists. Please help to spread the word! @Care4Ukr
With the #WaronUkraine, one way to help is to take care of your #mentalhealth.
Care4Ukr provides #support for those needing help handling anxiety & finding #hope.

Слава Україні!
My man Andrew!
Hot off the press! Check out our newest publication by @kingak333 on conjugated polymer synthesis
Really looking forward to this, thanks for the invite!
(1/3) This week, the following seminars will be held within the Department:
Chemistry Undergraduate Alumni Seminar: Research Seminar and Q&A on Friday 10/29/21 from 3:00-4:15pm presented on Zoom and in Cox214 by Kathy Nguyen and @DrakeChem, Recent NCSU Chemistry BS Graduates
Let's gooooo Maxim!!
We're thrilled to present our group's first paper, made possible by the work of our awesome post-doc Maxim Ratushnyy! Keep these skeletal (re)arrangements in mind when decorating this Halloween! @Alex_Zhuko pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

UNC Chem lost a legend. Fred Young, who supported our department through facilities and maintenance, passed away Monday. Fred was a problem solver, a kind soul, and a friend to all. His contributions to our dept. are far and wide; it's hard to think about the future w/o him.

Heyooo! Glad to be here, and thanks to everyone who helped me out in my first two years at UNC!
Drake Johnson (@DrakeChem) has became Zhuko Group PhD candidate #3 by passing his oral exam yesterday! He's warmed up to UNC!
Chris was an awesome mentor to me! You rock, excited to see what you do in the future!

👋This IS the spin-off series you are looking for. Stoked, Obi-Wan is my favorite!
Hayden Christensen returns as Darth Vader, joining Ewan McGregor in OBI-WAN KENOBI. The Original Series begins 10 years after the dramatic events of Revenge of the Sith, and is coming to #DisneyPlus.
