Day 127.

Its been so long since I last posted my own content. My undergrad student days are almost over, this year has been amazing for me with so many ups and downs, but I can't complain. I'm still making the most of every single day. I'll try to keep you all updated about this last step for me, it's gonna be hard. I've been working on so many cool experiments, mostly triazenes with silver, next step is NPs, wish me luck.

Day 117. Imagine adding videos to your thesis, I wish I could do it. A five hour reaction, a.k.a. symmetric triazene.

Day 116. This triazene is a thing now, I ended up simplifying the method and making some observations about its behavior. The big part now is writing the whole process, my entire last year research.

Day 115. It's been almost a year since I started synthesising triazenes, every single reaction I've made has my patience and learnings. Right now I'm working with two symmetric ligands (as seen here), these are similar to my first triazene.

Day 108. I just wanted to upload something rad + fisheye. 

This is the obtained product from the second mobile phase (9:1 ethyl acetate, hexane) used on the triazene purification.

Day 104. Sometimes, after six months you can synthesize triazines without reading the procedure. The color is just perfect!

Day  98. I forgot to upload this yesterday. One of my twenty test tubes turned into triazene crystals, it only took two weeks to grow. Right now I'm making some tests to verify that I got real crystals.

Day 88. Hexane is like bottled magic
