Our preprint on AgOSF₄X salts is out! We show a new prep for the Ag adducts and how they react with 1° amines to form RNSOF₂—both processes were only reported with SOF₄ gas so far. Tremendous work by @ArmirZogu, Karim and Stefanos! @MolDesignS https://t.co/bFlW4ZXoOd

Enabling SF5 compound synthesis: Now unveiled in #OrgLett from @Reza_Kordnezhad, @WimDeBorggraeve, and team, a method for on-demand SF5Cl gas generation using a safe, commercial reagent replacing lecture bottles. This approach unlocks SF5Cl applications. https://t.co/aZ1CwmoQF4

Reza just gave an outstanding presentation on our latest SF5Cl chemistry at #mocs2023 in Blankenberge

Only two more weeks until our annual flagship event, the @EuChemS_DOC Young Investigator Workshop #YIW2023. This year we meet in Leuven, Belgium. Looking forward to interacting with all the Young Investigators! https://t.co/fCPhqCQ0AR

Check out #RoboChem 🤖, this automated platform can do the entire substrate scope for our photocatalytic methodologies. We showcased it for 4 reaction classes and it improves chemist's yields every single time! When the students showed me the first results, i was speechless 🤯

[Masschelein Lab @Masschelein_Lab]

Delighted to share our recent paper on a novel #polyketidesynthase-mediated mechanism for O-methyloxime formation which has just been accepted for publication in @angew_chem ! 🥳Great collaboration with @MolDesignS @kullbmd @BristolChem & Rega Institute!

Interested to join our group @BiomagMfb in San Sebastián @CICbiomaGUNE as an #MSCA fellow? Projects envisaging 18F-labeling of exotic functional groups and/or de-novo PET tracer design for unprecedented targets are available.
PM to discuss further.

Our work on the chemistry of thiazyl trifluoride (NSF₃) is out today in @angew_chem (https://t.co/TMsOZ46aDr)! We report a way to make this beautiful, gaseous fluorosulfane and react some S-F bonds to make various thiazynes. Very happy with this one!🥳

Are you looking for a #postdoc position? Are you interested in materials and high-tech tools?

We have an open position on atomic layer deposition #ALD for EUV lithography! Check it out: https://t.co/wbMTX5hfj4

🙏 RT much appreciated!

Great work by all the co-authors! @KexinSu3 @VerhelstLab @LucVanMeervelt @ErmalIsmalaj @JoaDemaerel @BingYuLi5 @WimDeBorggraeve

Our work on thiazyl fluorides is online on @ChemRxiv: https://t.co/VEfNGXY2kZ. We show how S≡N triple bonded sulfur(VI) fluorides can be prepared from NSF₃ gas in typical SuFEx conditions. The real trick however was making the gas itself, which was solved by @BingYuLi5.
