It's time for the @masc2021 meeting! Check out poster 30 in room 4 presenting the software MoloVol for characterizing the cavities of cages and macrocycles (and more). It's available at molovol.com #MASC2021Poster

M​aglic and Lavendomme: MoloVol: an easy-to-use program for analyzing cavities, volumes and surface areas of chemical structures #Cavities #Volume #SurfaceArea ... #IUCr scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?…

The scientific article describing MoloVol is now available in Journal of Applied Crystallography IUCr. doi.org/10.1107/S16005… You can now use this ref for your volume, surface area and cavity calculations. Stay tuned for the future version of the program with features suggested by reviewers.😁

Have you ever selectively functionalized an oligomeric macrocycle or performed supramolecular protection? Maybe you played with iteroselectivity without knowing it. Check this paper defining the concept.

MoloVol 1.1 is also available as a web app (thanks to @BenediktSVogler and @jasminmaglic) in addition to the Windows, macOS and Linux distributions. A new option to calculate molecular volumes and surface areas.

I am glad we were given the opportunity to share the concept of iteroselectivity with the readership of Chemistry World . For those who want to read more about this concept, check our open access perspective in Cell Reports Physical Science : doi.org/10.1016/j.xcrp…

#COFs are finally scalable. Read our work in Angewandte Chemie on how to make many imine COFs with a very simple green protocol. All you need is n-butanol, water and acetic acid to produce them in decagram scales at ambient pressure. No Schlenk, no ampules, not toxic. Roy Lavendomme

Glad to see our perspective on antiaromaticity in assemblies and materials published in Chemical Science. If you are curious about these topics, have a read (Open Access): doi.org/10.1039/D4SC05…
