The party is over Boris Johnson. Resign.

Last week we had our annual LAC Christmas symposium (Spring edition) featuring the Venanzi distinguished Lecturer Prof. Doug Stephan ⁦⁦@FLPchemist⁩ ! We thank all speakers (& surprise speaker ⁦@JanVermant)⁩ for sharing a glimpse into their exciting science!

Can’t even pretend to be surprised

"'When a regime has been in power for too long ... you can rely on the leaders of that regime to act solely in the interests of self-preservation...' Who authored that quote?" "Was it Cicero...?" "It was you, Prime Minister."

Enjoyed being able to share some of our work from the past couple of years with a broader audience. Thought-provoking questions + suggestions that followed.

The latest contribution from Copéret Group / @coperetgroup.bsky.social concentrates on identifying the local coordination environment of Ga-sites in silica-supported catalysts from solid-state NMR and probe molecule studies augmented with molecular analogs. go.acs.org/7wE

Colin, Scott et al. found a “noble” solution to get a grip of Brønsted acidity in molecules and materials using 109Ag-NMR. Check their recent work Chemical Science pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Thrilled to share the publication of our latest research in Chemical Science! Dive into our exploration of alloying-dealloying dynamics in nanoparticles during #CO2 hydrogenation. Check it out!

Great work on non-oxidative PDH, catalysed by Rh SAC from the Ye Wang group. | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Origin of Reactivity Trends of an Elusive Metathesis Intermediate from NMR Chemical Shift Analysis of Surrogate Analogues | Journal of the American Chemical Society ETH Zurich D-CHAB Copéret Group / @coperetgroup.bsky.social #Metathesis #Reactivity #NMR #Analogues Magnetic Resonance News pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Delighted to see this online. Unique surrogates help uncover the chemistry of #metathesis intermediates. Very humbling to work with super talented people: Scott, Zach Berkson, Alex, Michael, Copéret Group / @coperetgroup.bsky.social, and especially with Yuya Kakiuchi. Vielen Dank Swiss National Science Foundation for funding.

Congratulations to Dr. Scott Docherty, who was awarded the ETH Medal for Outstanding doctoral theses!! Well done, Scott.

Organic transformations performed on/in molten potassium. Cool, right? Our recent work published in J. Am. Chem. Soc..

This was a lot of fun! A nice example of how an equation can be used to tackle a long-standing problem in chemistry.
