Congrats to En-Chih on his 5th paper! (his 6th is submitted too!)
En-Chih developed an effective synthesis of F2-TCNQ, which is a molecule to be used by the Massari lab! I hope their experements work as well as this synthesis. Congrats En-Chih.

En-Chih's Enantioselective Click!
En-Chih's many long hours of working on an enantioselective click reaction have finally paid off, because his paper was just accepted to JACS!
Way to go En-Chih! We're sure this is the first of many!
