Metal-metal cooperativity goes long distance! Check it out in the first pre-print @ChemRxiv related to our @ERC_Research project: N2-CONVERT. This was really a team effort over many years that was brought to the finish line by @RMultem 😀https://t.co/Sa9XIE7rtu
In case you wondered, how stable Mo/W mesoionic carbene complexes are, please have a look at our latest bisphenolate triazolylidene paper @InorgChem:
Mo/W triazolylidenes in 4 oxidation states.
Short teaser: Even thionylchloride doesn't destroy them.

New paper out: a Ru metalloligand platform enables phospha-Buchner-type ring expansion of a pendant arene, delivering a phosphepine from NaOCP and highlighting an unusual reactivity mode of metallophosphinidene chemistry. #ChemComm#PhosphorusChemistry

Hot off the presses! C-H activation by uranium oxo photocatalysis--now made site-selective by ligand control. Longer lifetimes. Higher activity. All possible with blue light.
In collaboration with the lab of @ProfArno.
Now in JACS: https://t.co/sVa4W9v4dS
Interesting computational take on our long term exptal study on the di-, tri-, tetra- and hexamerisation of CO using Mg(I) compoundshas appeared @ChemRxiv . Another experimental contribution on this should be out soon. #ozchem https://t.co/beyCuENiHV
Diastereoselective alkene C-C coupling at Al(I)
Work from Deb Sarkar, in collaboration with Petra Vasko in Helsinki, on reductive C-C bond formation from ethene and propene mediated by an anionic Al(I) reagent is just out in JACS.

Excited to share our new JACS paper reporting the first structurally authenticated example of single-site main-group-mediated reductive alkene C–C coupling at a low-valent Al(I) center. Thanks to Simon, Petra, and all co-authors! https://t.co/HacALeVoA2. #JACS#MainGroup

Happy to share our latest preprint where we show that our PPI ligand enables hapticity-driven formation of multimetallic architectures, including a rare Cr-Ag bonding motif. Congratulations to David and Michi for their efforts :)

Excited to share our latest article @angew_chem on a CBNC heterocumulene accessed via azidoborylene photolysis and the isolation of a crystalline dioxaborirane.
