Very pleased that some more work from my PhD is out now in @J_A_C_S! Here, we demonstrate how 13C and 17O NMR can be exploited to determine the nature of f-element ligand bonding in diamagnetic complexes.

Another fruitful collaboration between the Liddle and Lee groups!

What is the bonding to my uranium? NMR can help us understand, once we can find the relevant signal! @J_A_C_S @CameronBChem @Johnseedo @UoMNMRserv #nmr https://t.co/fncQYR9XaZ

This guy is finally out!! Glad to collaborate with @harder_research
and @Sandeepthakur_K, and help them describe the first s-Block-Lanthanide bond!
Awesome chemistry that you can now check out here in @J_A_C_S @ALGC_VUB 🚀🚀

Researchers have synthesised a triple bond between carbon and boron for the first time, in a discovery that could inspire other researchers to synthesise compounds that might seem improbable.

Catalytic methane functionalization and all it takes is... beryllium! We also compare the mechanisms of methane beryllation and borylation to reveal why Be finds it so easy @J_A_C_S @GroupAldridge

We are super pleased to share our latest research, where we present M4,5-edge RIXS as a new method for probing actinide-ligand bond covalency!

Check it out here!

Delighted to share Cameron's first publication with the group making rare earth (Sc, Y, La, Lu) mixed #sandwich #complexes using parent COT, and alkylated phospholide ligands.

Featuring lovely 45Sc and 89Y NMR spectra.

Work led by Dr Jack Emerson-King in collaboration with the @nfchilton group on a dysprosium bis-amide alkene single-molecule magnet has just been deposited on @ChemRxiv. It's a pretty decent SMM🙃 Excited! @UoMChemistry @GemGransbury @jeff_jeffty_jef https://t.co/4ZuGVOKkzx
