On my way to #isna20 and even the floor is an advertisement for polybenzenoid hydrocarbons! I must be in the right place 😎😁

Congrats to our fabulous Kasia Młodzikowska-Pieńko and the entire team! A great collaboration with Graham de Ruiter. So happy to see it in print 🥳🥳 N2 Dissociation vs Reversible 1,2-Methyl Migration in PCNHCP Cobalt(I) Complexes | JACS Au pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

And another one, this time with Alexandra Tsybizova !!🥳😍 Our latest collaboration with Marina A Petrukhina shows that two electrons are needed to transform COT into a “butterfly” dianion with a new single C−C bond, changing the 8MR into two fused 5MRs …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ce…

A new cover is born!!! So excited to share this beautiful figure, made with Zheng Zhou. Together with Marina A Petrukhina we 'dial up the charge' on COT and see what those extra electrons do

Yay! So excited to welcome Amrita as the newest postdoc in my group!

Thank you for picking us for this week's highlight!!

Ever wondered how you can easily and quickly determine diradical character in polybenzenoid hydrocarbons? 🤔 Well, wonder no more! 😃 The fantastic Alex Wahab Alexandra Wahab tells us how to use xTB NFod values to do exactly that. 🤓 Fresh off the presses: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Given the Xodus to 🦋, you can find me over there with the same handle: Renana Poranne. I'm still here for now, but I guess I will slowly migrate over to bluer horizons...

🥳Extremely proud to share the latest from our group! Gabby Warren and Kasia Młodzikowska-Pieńko elucidate the effects of benzoheterocyclic annelation on the s-indacene core. A fun collaborative effort with Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry and Judy Wu 😍 Now in Chemical Science 😁 pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

New cover alert!! Check out our gorgeous new cover on JACS Au, courtesy of the talented Roi Poranne 😍 N2 Dissociation vs Reversible 1,2-Methyl Migration in PCNHCP Cobalt(I) Complexes in the Stereoselective Isomerization (E/Z) of Allyl Ethers | JACS Au pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

🥳Busy week for us here in PoranneGroup! 👩‍💻Alexandra Wahab's latest paper just hit the presses PCCP! 🤓Our adventures in the land of polycyclic aromatic systems continue as we explore the diradical character of 20k PBHs using xTB fractional occupation pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Thanks so much for highlighting our paper!

🥳🥳Check out our latest cover Chemical Science! **It's Gabby's indenofluorene machine!!!** 🏭 HUGE thanks to Vitalii Stetsovych for the amazing artwork (and for putting up with me) and to Roi Poranne for finishing touches! 😍 Michael Haley - UOregon Chemistry Judy Wu Kasia Młodzikowska-Pieńko Said Jalife

It's that time of year again! Last lecture of the semester and I baked chocolate chip cookies for the students to end on a sweet note 😀😀

An amazing opportunity to work with one of the best!! Alexandra is an awesome scientist and mentor. 10/10 recommended 🤩😍

BN-doped polybenzenoids are a very promising direction for new functional aromatic systems... But can we predict how BN pairs affect properties? YES, we can! And guess what!? Turns out it has to do with aromaticity... Check out our new preprint: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Are polycyclic aromatics really "delocalized"? 🤔 We used deep learning to answer the question "How local is “local”?" and revealed locality of the induced magnetic field. Congrats to our two amazing undergrads, Yair and Aviad, and to Sabyasachi Chakraborty pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl…

Everyone knows I love aromatic compounds... but what about *metallaaromatic* ones?! In a cool exp/comp collaboration with Graham de Ruiter, we find new cobalt macrocycles and show that they are metallaromatic thanks to metal-ligand coordination. go.shr.lc/4cQQPvN
