Paper Releases in First Month of 2020

Happy 2020 everyone! 3 papers out in the first month: 

Cyclic enol ethers are effective ROMP monomers! Congrats to JD for this surprising discovery and development of depolymerizable and degradable poly(enol ether)s in JACS! 

Our collaborative mechanistic study with the Martinez and Burns groups on the mechanochemistry of ladderane/ene is reported in Nat. Chem., revealing two significant dynamic effects: 1) cascade activation with rate acceleration; 2) bifurcation on potential energy surface determines product distribution. Congrats to Zhixing and the Stanford team! 

Congrats to Ben and Jessica on using AROMP to synthesize degradable polyacetals in ACS Macro Lett! 

Congrats to Holden on winning a NAMS student award to speak at the International Congress on Membranes in London!
