@maintvm.bsky.social#Pnictogen_chemistry: phosphanyl radicals from Bi-P and P-P homolysis. We have looked into thermally-driven, reversible P-radical release, P inversion, and H atom transfer. Check out the details in @chemistryeurope.bsky.social: chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/....
Show Post#Bismuth dications and CF3 groups: this combination yields Lewis superacids, record values in soft Lewis acidity (modified Gutmann-Beckett method) and pronounced catalytic activity in phosphane oxide reduction. Just out in @chemicalscience.rsc.org: pubs.rsc.org/sc/article/d.... Congrats to the team!
Show PostExcited to share our new paper on a Nickel Aluminium dihydride complex which exhibits cooperative reactivity in catalysis! Want to know how? Check it out now: doi.org/10.1039/d6sc... #MyFirstChemSci #Chemsky #OpenAccess @unibe.ch @chemicalscience.rsc.org @evaheviagroup.bsky.social
Show PostLooking for a chemistry summer read? Ever wondered how superbases work? Our most recent article-review (with @evaheviagroup.bsky.social ) breaks down exactly how adding alkali-metal alkoxides to main-group reagents can change reactivity and selectivity in organic synthesis. doi.org/10.1039/d6cs...
Show PostFresh out of the oven! 🔥 Bis(pyridino-o-carboranyl)phosphenium Cation: A Platform for Dual-Site Reactivity is now published in Inorganic Chemistry @pubs.acs.org pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... Congrats to our very talented Shiv Kumar and Deependra Bawari!!!
