#HEISuccessStories IISER Thiruvananthapuram (IISER TVM) IISER Thiruvananthapuram is driving cutting-edge research with industry collaborations and global partnerships. ● Clean Energy Innovation: Hosting IC-MAP (DST), led by Prof. Shaijumon, bringing 15 institutestogether to advance


Carbon Monoxide Binding at a Weakly Acidic Borane! Aggy's latest paper showing how CO can be captured by a very weak Lewis acid, by leveraging non-covalent interactions within a cage-like architecture, is just out in Angewandte Chemie doi.org/10.1002/anie.2… Oxford Chemistry OxICFM



The antimony dication now has formal existence with a citation! Nat. Synth 4, 462–470 (2025) doi.org/10.1038/s44160… Looking forward to taking this dication further! We are thankful to: 1) Anusandhan National Research Foundation for generous funding & IISER Thiruvananthapuram School of Chemistry IISER TVM for the facilities. 2)


Applications are invited for PhD programme starting August 2025. The online application portal will be open from 1st April 2025, and the deadline is 1st May 2025. admissions.iisertvm.ac.in/phd/index.php/… IISER Thiruvananthapuram


Check out our recent progress in the synthesis of strained, air-stable boracycles via boron–carbon-centred diradicals Nature Chemistry nature.com/articles/s4155…

Another new paper from our ongoing work on elemental phosphorus chemistry with The Wolf Group, just published in InorgChemFront. This time we show how our previously reported P4 hydrostannylation chemistry can be extended to analogues based on Ge and Si. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Looking for a very weakly coordinated copper(I) cation? Our latest studies on our recently published Cu-N2 complex shows unprecedented Cu(I/0) potentials up to +1.5 V vs. Fc+/0 and a rich coordination chemistry with arenes doi.org/10.1002/chem.2… ChemEurJ: Chemistry - A European Journal Freiburg Chemistry Institutes


CO2 REDUCTION WITH LOW-VALENT CALCIUM: Ca-N2 complexes react like synthons for low-valent Ca(I). We discuss first intermediates and products in CO2, CS2 and RN=C=NR reduction. ChemistryEur Details on BlueSky tinyurl.com/3vjx83tv


We are absolutely thrilled that our long-term project (exp. and theory) on the heavy-atom tunnelling of fluorine has just been published Nature Communications! It is now the heaviest tunnelling-determining atom involved in QMT known to date. Great team CRC 1349 Fluorine-Specific Interactions and JC Tremblay. 😉


The deadline for the PhD application has been extended until 5 May 2025. CSIR JRF December 2024 awardees are suggested to make use of this opportunity. #PhDposition IISER Thiruvananthapuram admissions.iisertvm.ac.in/mhd/index.php/…



Room temperature, selective C-H activation of arenes with aluminium in seconds!. All you need is an even more reactive aluminyl anion. Check out Fabian and Gareth's latest paper just accepted in Chemical Science ANU Research School of Chemistry #ozchem doi.org/10.1039/D5SC02…
