Nickel is a highly abundant metal available in major reserves worldwide. It is known for its diverse reactivity, but could it be a candidate for use in olefin metathesis? Find out in our latest article out now in @J_A_C_S!

Is there a better way to design catalysts than intuition alone? The answer is yes!

Check our newest publication investigating the de novo design of olefin metathesis catalysts. Out now in @ACSCatalysis ! @VidarRJensen https://t.co/18btmfU86X

We had a wonderful time at #ISHC2024 in Trieste! Thank you to the organizers for such an engaging week of science and congratulations to @ElizaBoisvert for winning a poster prize!

[Fogg Lab @Fogglab]

The hegemony of cationic olefin metathesis catalysts has ended. We report anionic water-soluble catalysts with improved water-stability and productivity. 🌊 Congrats to Christian and Richard! @ACSCatalysis @uOttawaScience
