Happy lesbian week to organometallic chemists

We are thrilled to be part of the operando spectroscopy research in 🇨🇭. In this special issue of CHIMIA, you will find our mini review on uncovering atomic-scale dynamics in solid catalysts via X-ray-based methods

Mg(II)-Be(0) complex: a Buchner-Harder cooperation. This first bond between Be and a more electropositive metal is the most polar Be-metal bond. Highly shielded it only shows limited reactivity. More about the missing Mg-(group 2 metal) bond: shorturl.at/JtnhU @Angew_Chem

Happy pride month everyone 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️#LGBTQinChem

Congrats to Aurore and Jordan who benchmarked frequently used DFT functionals on experimental kinetic data. A good reference for mechanistic studies 🌈

Always cool to see new carbenes :)

Out today in J. Am. Chem. Soc., a mechanistic puzzle that took us since the earliest days of Levin Group to sort out. Congrats to Jeanne and Balu Dherange (both now at Incyte) and our collaborators in the Gutierrez lab Chemistry Department pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

New ChemRxiv from Marina Perez-Jimenez and Roessler Research Group is now out. It describes the isolation, characterisation, and electronic structure of a Paramagnetic Nickel-Zinc Hydride Complex, along with hints that such species may be relevant in catalysis. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

New work from the SCORE Lab : A unified photocatalytic strategy for the cross coupling of alcohols with aryl halides enabled by synergetistic nickel and iron LMCT catalysis Mohammad Jaber, Yasemin Ozbay, Gaël Tran and Abder Amgoune chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Is my bisphosphine ligand oxidizing? How is it happening? Does it matter? 🤔 If these questions keep you up at night 🛌, you're not alone! Happy to share 3+ years of learnings, led by G4 student Shenghua together w/ Donna Blackmond #BMSChemistry. tinyurl.com/vc8x9zhw

Check out our latest work on carbene stabilized copper hydride nanoclusters! We discuss our strategy to access these types of nanomaterials, explain why they are air stable, and lay out six different catalytic transformations. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…
