Hall Research Group at UAlberta

@HallBoronLab looks forward to welcoming the 2024 cohort of grad students at @ualbertachem! In case we don't see you at our recruitment weekend, here is a virtual tour of our lab and team! @UAlberta @ualbertaScience @UofAResearch @UAlbertaFGSR @UofAWIC

Excited to announce our latest work in @angew_chem, a "step in the light direction" with a novel boronic ester, xanthopinacol boronate (Bxpin), that is both photochemically assembled and removed! @MartinCLessard #UAlberta #Chemistry onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Xanthopinacol Boronate: A Robust, Photochemically Assembled and Cleavable Boronic Ester for Orthogonal Chemistry (@angew_chem): onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an… @HallBoronLab).

We are welcoming Catherine to our team for 6 weeks as a Women in Scholarship, Engineering, Science, and Technology (WISEST) SRP student! Catherine will examine electronic effects of alkenylboronates. @ualbertachem @WISESTualberta #UAlberta #Chemistry

This week's Paper-of-the-Week (POW) presentations in our weekly group meeting featured some great work by @SandfordLab +@pfizer, @shchom83, @bobbypaton + @YuyangDong and Wu + Zhu group! #Chemistry #Boron

Last week's Paper-of-the-Week (POW) presentations in our weekly group meeting featured some fantastic by @AggarwalLab + @bobbypaton, @nagiblab, @YulabJin and Chen Group! #Chemistry #Boron

We wish @MartinCLessard a fantastic three months exchange where he will be working in Prof. Armido Studer's group at the University of Münster in Germany! A huge thank you to @MitacsCanada for funding this exchange! #Chemistry #Boron

Last week's Paper-of-the-Week (POW) presentations in our weekly group meeting featured some great work by Ye group, @Vy_Dong_Group, @SchindlerLab + @KulikGroup + Wolf group, & Studer Group! #Chemistry #Boron

This is not your Dad’s reductive amination! Check out our "migrative" reductive amination variant just in at pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… Congrats to Artem for seeing this story through! #Chemistry #UAlberta

We're excited to share that our recent work on hemiboronic acid-catalyzed, site-selective monophosphorylation of diols and polyols is out now in Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry. Congrats to the team! @genevieveokeefe @DKonoChem @Boron_Chemistry pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

We are at #CSC2025! Come check out our talks on monophosphorylation by @genevieveokeefe, boron heterocycles by @JakeBlackner, and selective cross-couplings by @DKonoChem. Info can be found below:

This week's Paper-of-the-Week (POW) presentations in our weekly group meeting featured some outstanding work by Knowles group, @ritter_lab & Yang + Li group! #Chemistry #Boron

Congratulations to Artem Khegay on successfully completing his master's thesis! Artem's positive energy and comical spirit will be dearly missed in the lab. We wish Artem the best in his future endeavors! #Chemistry #UAlberta

Congratulations Shira!

Shira Joudan of @UAlberta is interested in how contaminants get where they are and how we can understand chemical reactions to better understand their fate. Read more: cen.acs.org/environment/pe… #CENT12
