Yesterday, we had a wonderful lunch to thank the @CBOND2024 team of @VU_TheoCheM for their outstanding job! Also on behalf of @TrevorAHamlin, @PascalVermeeren and @fmbickelhaupt.

Very cool article by Daniël Linzel about our recent publication! @Chem2W

[Célia Fonseca Guerra @CeliaFGuerra]

Will the real H-bond please stand up? https://t.co/QKGssX4jes

[Lucas de Azevedo Santos @LucasAzdS]

@BioInorgChem_UW @CeliaFGuerra Check the SI of our manuscript for an example of palladium hydride, and others. The story is just the same.

It's not a cover, it's a #ChemSciOnACake! And it deserves another personal shout-out from me for a great visual advertisement for your research.

Also anyone looking for tips on how to design a great Graphical Abstract image should think whether it will look good on a cake!!!

@VU_TheoCheM @J_A_C_S @BeutickSteven @songyu_sc @LucasAzdS @PascalVermeeren @_LauraOrian @CeliaFGuerra @fmbickelhaupt @TrevorAHamlin I've seen papers on mugs before but I think this is the first time I've seen a #ChemSciOnACake!

Congratulations on the two papers and I hope you all enjoyed the cake!

[Pascal Vermeeren @PascalVermeeren]

💡 Ever wondered about the story behind our latest manuscript?

Huge thanks to the team:
Pablo M. Pérez García, @MariaLSP14, @CeliaFGuerra, @ME_Moret

[Trevor A. Hamlin @TrevorAHamlin]

Excited to see the work of @BeutickSteven and @songyu_sc out in @ChemicalScience!🤩

They studied the retro-Cope elimination reaction of cyclic alkynes.🖥️

Then rationally designed a suite of novel bioorthogonal reagents!😎

@SHuberLab @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Thanks for this recommendation with another perfect example showing that misleading definitions often emerge from a vague understanding of bonding mechanisms!

[Lucas de Azevedo Santos @LucasAzdS]

In our recent work on @J_A_C_S, we object to the incorrect proposal to change the IUPAC definition of HBs. No, hydridic hydrogens cannot form HBs!

@ChenfengKe @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Exactly. In our main example, the Si-H moiety with negatively charged H acts as a halogen-bond acceptor, e.g., a Lewis base.
