Gave my talk about Biobased Polymers from Furan Diels-Alder Adducts today at IUPAC Macro2024 Conference-University of Warwick Great session, great people, great input. Cheers! 🍻 #chemtwitter #macro2024


Arguably the coolest chemistry we’ve uncovered yet ChemRxiv, especially given that it’s with just one metal!! 🤯Fantastic work by Stas Melniková… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… and first of many collabs with Baik Group | Hydride as a Leaving Group in Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution | - go.shr.lc/3ycdkeL




Great to see this study led by Roel Bienenmann make it to print! Great example where peer-review strengthened the message! Previously on ChemRxiv, now in ACS Catalysis Mechanistic Investigation into Copper(I) Hydride Catalyzed Formic Acid Dehydrogenation pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…




I'm really happy that my dicobalt work with Daniel Broere has made it into Organometallics! Thanks also to our collaborators Arun Asundi and Ritimukta Sarangi at SLAC! Want to see what the PNNP expanded pincer ligand can do with cobalt? Check it out: doi.org/10.1021/acs.or…

My dear friend and colleague Eva Harsevoort just got her super cool work on closed-loop chemical recycling published in J. Am. Chem. Soc. Gefeliciteerd ♻️ pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

What happens when you oxidize a metallacyclobutane? The last #openaccess chapter of MarĂa L. G. Sansores Paredes 's nickelacyclobutane saga has just been accepted in ChemEurJ: Chemistry - A European Journal. Work done at Institute for Sustainable & Circular Chemistry and funded by European Research Council (ERC). Check it out! doi.org/10.1002/chem.2…


Thank you Malte Fischer Malte Fischer for picking up the project at very early stage and pushing it all the way to Inorganic Chemistry. Structural Snapshots on Stepwise Anionic Oxoborane Formation: Access to an Acyclic BO Ketone Analogue pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…


Check out our first steps into the main group ChemRxiv ! Pioneered by Errikos Kounalis and in collab with Marc-Etienne Moret | @[email protected] An N-Heterocyclic Germylene with a Versatile Metal-Binding Pocket: Insights into Heterodinuclear Bonding and Reactivity | ChemRxiv - go.shr.lc/41X9QI5


Check out our recent collaborative paper with the SchindlerLab now out in J. Am. Chem. Soc. showing a unique mechanism for metathesis. Great organic/inorganic tag-team collaboration featuring Jake, John, Dan, Troy, and Prof. Schindler! #Ru Michigan Chemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Check out the latest work from Errikos Kounalis and co-workers on the "Divergent Organomagnesium Reactivity of Rigid, Dinucleating Naphthyridine Ligands: Backbone Changes with Big Impact" in Organometallics pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…


Super cool organometallics by my colleague Stas Melniková… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… á… ! Ruthenium-Mediated Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution of Hydrogen in Benzene - now published in Chemical Science pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Pretty good week for our group! My dear friend and colleague Maartje put out this study in J. Am. Chem. Soc. Post-Polymerization Modification of Polyethylene through Photochemical Oximation and Consecutive Ketonization | Journal of the American Chemical Society pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
