Proud to share our latest work in J. Am. Chem. Soc.: a practical "dump-and-stir" synthesis of carborane-substituted arenes using lithium carboranyl cuprate reagent. New reagent and ligand system! New 2D-3D hybrid aromatic products! Great work by Yusei and Daina🌟 doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5…

First day as Assistant Professor at the University of Pavia. Grateful for this opportunity and excited (and nervous) for the journey ahead!👨‍🔬🤌

We found (theoretically) another case of F tunnel! Now, for the same price, including a fluorine halogen bond. "Fluorine Ping-Pong Tunnelling in Cages" New J. Chem. - Festschrift for Giuseppe Resnati doi.org/10.1039/D5NJ03…

First-ever preparation of shipping of crystals to Diamond Light Source in our group is finished! We’ll find out how good my technique was in about two weeks 😄 See you soon, David Allan and Sarah!

Congratulations to Kaycee (NSERC USRA) and Kaitlyn (MSc) as first authors on this work, and their outstanding mentor Lana, now a faculty member at York! Structural adaptability and hy­dro­gen bonding in a dissymmetric pyrimidine thio­ether ligand doi.org/10.1107/S20532…

We report the design and solid-state characterization of a dissymmetric N,N′-bidentate thioether ligand and its structural response under protonation and metal coordination, using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and Hirshfeld surface analysis. Structural Chemistry Laurier ChemBiochem

We interrupt our regular programming to announce…

Great news for all the MOF community! Congratulations to the awardees and thanks for inspiring us

He, Arnau and Kaman absolutely nailed it! Super happy that I could have my small contribution to this HUGE paper in Science Magazine. Will be super exciting to find out what amazing properties of these rings will be revealed in the future! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
