Just released our paper in @J_A_C_S on how stereochemistry drives surface-induced cyclization into cyclopentaazulene chevron-like graphene nanoribbons, yielding a record-low GNR bandgap. STM & DFT reveal its impact on nanostructure design. @icmm_csic

Since I was a young and innocent organic chemist 👶👨🔬, I have always dreamed with visualizing all those non-crystallizable and labile molecules/natural products that I synthesized but couldn't observe through X-ray diffraction 😢😢.
@icmm_csic Just released our latest publication “Photocleavage of aliphatic C–C bonds in the interstellar medium”. UV absorption promotes an alkane to a Rydberg state inducing formation of olefinic C=C bonds, necessary precursors of aromatic hydrocarbons. https://t.co/m5NDlqye2D
On-Surface Synthesis of Helicene Oligomers:
Deposition of a heptahelicene monomer on an Au(111) surface followed by Ullmann coupling

First On-Surface Synthesis of helicene polymers! Check the synthesis process and the STM, nc-AFM and DFT characterization we performed at @nanosurflab using helicene monomers as bulding blocks on Au111 https://t.co/b4VSJjmNZw
👏We are happy to introduce you to Jesús Mendieta (@JesMen85), a new member of @EsisnaI
👉 He is joining us thanks to a Marie Curie Fellowship (@MSCActions)!

Is this my trajectory between desk and coffee machine in the morning? Nope, it's a third gen motor being driven on a copper surface! Better resolution pics and the full story now in @ACSNano : https://t.co/hbmQIMo0oi

On-surface synthesis of PAH including an unusual rearrangement of the (pi)-conjugated molecular scaffold because of the concerted action of two Au adatoms that catalyze the reaction on the gold surface. @nanosurflab@Brunodelatorre@FZU@CatrinUP https://t.co/GHo324PDTK
Check our recent paper with @LaertePatera, Jascha Repp, Shi-Xia Liu et al about Na+ assisted regioselective C-H activation on @angew_chem
👨💻👨💻 great theoretical effort from @ada_matej and @JesMen85
