“When I draw a molecule in China or in Argentina, it is the same molecule. People understand immediately without knowing Spanish or Chinese. That is beautiful. Our common goal is not about power or borders of the country, it is about bringing forward human knowledge.” - Ben

Dat (Dat Tien Nguyen) and Rahul's paper on a Mg-N2 complex inducing cross-couplings of H2, CO, C2H4 and/or CO2, giving functionalised organics, has been accepted Angewandte Chemie tinyurl.com/53rjm38v. Some heroic xtallography by Matthew Evans on this one. #ozchem Monash Chemistry
