[Smith Group @MDSgroup_Oxford]

Interested in new methods for aryne generation? With @bobbypaton & the Burton group, in @ChemRxiv we describe a super-mild method to make and trap arynes - including pyrimidynes - by the base-mediated elimination of oxonium salts: https://t.co/va3T1hz06Z

Train one Machine-Learning Potential with another! MLPs capture interactions between atoms with DFT accuracy at a fraction of the cost. Combining MLPs reduces this further, making million-atom simulations feasible
