Carbon–boron triple bond formed for the first time in a neutral novel molecule Synthesis could help chemists better understand bonding

Researchers have synthesised a triple bond between carbon and boron for the first time, in a discovery that could inspire other researchers to synthesise compounds that might seem improbable.

Still time to apply for this post - closing date is Monday

Probing the Hidden Photoisomerization of a Symmetric Phosphaalkene Switch In this study, we present the synthesis and analysis of a novel, air-stable, and solvent-resistant phosphaalkene switch. Using this symmetric switch, we have demonstrated degenerate photoisomerizatio...

Absolutely delighted to see the light of this collaborative work between the @screspi.bsky.social team and our group, with all the spectroscopy help.

University of Hull to close its chemistry department The university is also merging some of its schools following a drop in student numbers.

It's been known in the sector for some time, but finally the BBC has caught up with the impending closure of Chemistry at Hull - a well-regarded department with very high local value to the East Yorkshire economy and chemicals industry.
