A Supramolecular Nanosheet Assembled from Carpyridines and Water The use of water as a solvent to facilitate supramolecular self-assembly and polymerization is well-documented; however, it is rare that water acts as a monomer that undergoes polymerization. We repor...

Water impacts self-assembly. But what changes really?
In our latest @jacs.acspublications.org at 🇨🇭UNIGE, we ferret out vastly different organisations in wet vs dry solvents that lead to identical macrostructures

Our new preprint introduces a new approach for controlling the helicity and handedness of polyaromatics using a helical cyclophane synthon: isobenzofuranophane.
We demonstrate the applicability by remotely controlling the handedness and pitch of [5]helicenes. go.shr.lc/44yCyln

Osmium ensnared in a hydrocarbon ring Chemists make new class of planar organometallic compounds

An ABSOLUTELY spectacular structure by the Xia group at SUSTECH. Haiping & his team have been working on enveloping the metal with a fully conjugated carbon ring for over a decade, and they finally succeeded! This warms my reformed metallabenzene chemist's heart!

Solution-phase synthesis of Clar’s goblet and elucidation of its spin properties - Nature Chemistry In 1972, Erich Clar envisioned Clar’s goblet, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon featuring two unpaired electrons that are spin-paired. However, synthesizing it in a solution phase remains challenging....

Calling all 🇨🇦 chemists. Here is a starting pack to connect go.bsky.app/Btb9A95. #chemsky #realtimechem #chemistry. The more the merrier so let me know if you want to join too.

Hello BlueSky!
#pisky #realtimechem

Me too, please!

Guven the notable exodus: Let's gather the family once more🤩I have started a (currently very small) #starterpack of PIs and Lab Heads revolving around #Polyaromatic #Chemistry #ISNA #CuroPi. Happy to add you and (regrow) the gang here where the sky is blue☀️ 🧪 #chemsky
