Thanks to @lisavondung.bsky.social, Axel Jacobi von Wangelin, Peter Burger, Dieter Schaarschmidt and helpers for putting together such an amazing event.

Soti and Sina presented their latest results at the NDDK this week. After just two months in the lab, Sina secured her first conference prize! Huge congratulations to her 🥳! We had a wonderful time, topped off by a buffet and drink selection of unparalleled quality and abundance.

Good luck Jasmin =)

Our latest work reveals a new PN framework (Phosphaza-norbornanes) with a broad scope of substitution. Congrats to PhD student Joseph Nazak on his 1st paper with us! Also feat @michaelland.bsky.social + @jasonmasuda.bsky.social

Synthesis, Isolation, and Reactivity of a Phosphinidene Telluride We describe the synthesis and isolation of a phosphinidene telluride. This species acts as a versatile phosphinidene transfer reagent accompanied by the extrusion of elemental tellurium.

Here's the latest from Goicoechea Group alumnus and master synthetic chemist Chenyang Hu:

Bismuth Radical Catalysis: Thermally Induced Intramolecular C(sp3)–C(sp) Cyclization of Unactivated Alkyl Iodides and Alkynes Bismuth radical chemistry has attracted increased interest in recent years. Here, we report a series of bismuth–manganese complexes that catalyze the intramolecular redox-neutral coupling of alkyl iod...

How to catalytically cyclize alkyl species onto alkynes? Just add a pinch of bismuth! Read about our findings in controlled radical reactions catalyzed by well-defined manganese- bismuth heterobimetallic complexes, just published in ACS Catalysis @pubs.acs.org: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Beautiful work! Congratulations Crispin and team.

Highly recommended!

Awesome work =)

So good to see this amazing work in print, congratulations =)

Congrats André and all the authors involved in this new generation of SBDIPY and BIDIPY and their application in photocatalysis.

Kinetic Stabilization in Diaryl-Substituted Stannylenes: N2O Reactivity, Intramolecular C–H Activation, and Crystalline (Eind)Li(THF)2 as a Versatile Precursor in Tin Chemistry The reactivity of the kinetically stabilized stannylene (MesTer)2Sn (1) (MesTer = –C6H3-2,6-(2,4,6-Me3-C6H2)2) toward N2O is revisited, yielding the terminal tin(IV) hydroxide 2 via formal intramolecular C(sp3)–H activation of a putative terminal stannanone intermediate. By switching to Eind ligation (Eind = 1,1,3,3,5,5,7,7-octaethyl-s-hydrindacen-4-yl) at the tin center, the synthesis and characterization of the crystalline lithium salt (Eind)Li(THF)2 (3) is reported, serving as a straightforward precursor for the clean generation of the corresponding stannylene (Eind)2Sn (4). Compound 4 can be further cleanly converted into the heteroleptic Eind/halide stannylene (Eind)SnCl (6). Both 4 and 6 serve as suitable precursors for the synthesis of the heteroleptic s-hydrindacene-/amido-substituted stannylene (Eind)Sn{N(SiMe3)2} (5).
