Very happy to to see my MS Thesis work published as a part of a research article in @ChemEurJ ! Many thanks to @dmresearchgroup, @SudipBaguli and @soumajit_iiserk. https://t.co/e5y0U14JL6

Are you interested in main group metal redox catalysis?

🚨Check out our last preprint summarising recent developments in the area!

Looking for motivated Ph.D. aspirants with CSIR/UGC- NET fellowship to join us (https://t.co/u0lWg42HrT). We focus on synthetic inorganic chemistry, catalysis, sensitive main group and carbenes among many others. Apply through the portal and email me ([email protected]).

Congratulations to Ankur on his fantastic work on the stable all-silicon analog of the iconic cyclopentadienide published today in @ScienceMagazine (https://t.co/AhJUSZNY4W). Note, that the Iwamoto group at Sendai obtained precisely the same compound (https://t.co/5FAHorwVz5)!

Check out Ludwig's (@LudwigZapf ) new paper exploring (quasi)-monocoordination in metal complexes with an exceptionally bulky carbene ligand — now published in Chemical Science!

The new reagents don’t ignite or smoke in air, making them easier to handle and less prone to degradation on storage, while maintaining performance across a range of reaction types.

FINALLY a complex of type LMg-CaL! This formally Mg(0)-Ca(II) complex shows a very long Mg-Ca bond with Mg(-)/Ca(+) polarization and is quite reactive! Our first 2026 paper is "In dear memory of Herbert Roesky" https://t.co/epFVfTQwRd

[Josh Abbenseth @AbbensethJosh]

📣Our new paper is out in @JACS (our very first one)!🥳

We show how a redox-active ligand unlocks C–X bond scission at an ambiphilic T-shaped Bi(III) compound. A big collaborative effort with my brilliant colleagues from Berlin.

TIRE CHANGE: First Mg(I) complex with a Cp* ligand enables facile ligand exchange. Reaction with RONa gives (BDI)Mg-MgOR and Cp*Na. This paves the way for syntheses of many new asymmetric Mg(I) complexes. @angew_chem https://t.co/BXyZlqfcJt

Excited to share my recent work from the Gessner group on a new strategy for the isolation of anionic NHO via ligand exchange in @angew_chem . Huge thanks to @ViktoriaGessner for continuous support and all coauthors Alex, Margarita, Quentin, @Arpan1902.

[Dominik Munz @MunzDominik]

Great joint project with @ChemJChu. Stunning compounds, note that the anionic ketene radical is NOT in conjugation, leading to massive spin density on carbon and rendering the ketene carbon atom nucleophilic 🤯🤯🤯

[Harder-Research @harder_research]

THIS CHALLENGING SYNTHESIS completes the (BDI)Ae-(benzene)-Ae(BDI) series (Ae = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) with Ba. We show trends in stability, structure, bonding and recativity. Reacting like (BDI)Ba-Ba(BDI) this is a first Ba(I) synthon. https://t.co/3iArTCGuTO @ChemicalScience
