Joe (@josephmparr) and co's work on using the normally inert NMR standard, TMS, as a ligand towards very Lewis acidic, neutral Ca and Sr complexes, has appeared as a pre-print @ChemRxiv. https://t.co/7UHXrx5EHW.

An excellent collaboration between the Mazzanti and Liddle groups. Huge congratulations to Mikhail and Heather for this game-changing piece of work ☢️
Now out in @JACS_Au. Dinitrogen cleavage and photo driven hydrogenation of the resulting tungsten nitride. Great work @ChirikGroup's Matt. https://t.co/9s50e6x2zn
#Uranium-catalysed reduction of #dinitrogen to ammonia is now out in @NatureChemistry. Four distinct (and isolable!) intermediates, first time seeing side-on N2 doing N2-to-NH3 catalysis

We discovered an in crystallo organometallic isomerization that shows 4f-orbitals can (uniquely) promote chemical reactions among isostructural 3d, 4d, 5d, 4f, & 5f complexes!
Check out our latest paper, out now @NatureChemistry
