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:

Some very elegant double-bond metathesis chemistry allows access to a phosphorus(III) telluride completing our collection of phosphorus-chalcogen double bonds.

What better way to kick off my Bluesky account than at #ACSFall2025 meeting in Washington DC!

I’ll be giving a talk at the Main Group Chemistry session on some of my recent work @goicoecheagroup.bsky.social tomorrow (August 19) at 8:20 AM in East Salon B.

Can't wait to catch up with everyone!

Las pensiones son altas porque te devuelven lo que has cotizado. En cambio, los planes de pensiones consisten en que un banco te cobre 5 euros por cada euro que te piensa devolver.

Por eso las pensiones tienen mala prensa y los fondos de pensiones se compran pisos para Airbnb.

This is a clever way to distinguish PCET from PT/ET pathways: using pressure.

ET/PT mechanisms lead to larger volume changes due to solvation of charged species.

Radical Formation by Direct Single Electron Transfer between Nitrobenzene and Anionic Organo Bases The presence of unpaired electrons, i.e., radicals, equips organic molecules with unique magnetic and reactivity properties. However, due to the reactive nature of radicals and the nontrivial chemistry required for their preparation, strict structural and electronic limitations are imposed on the available systems, limiting their potential applications. Thus, developing mechanisms that enable facile radical formation in simple reaction conditions, employing available and inexpensive reactants and applicable to general types of molecules, holds the key to capitalize on the extraordinary properties that radicals have to offer. Here, combining electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy and ab initio calculations, we uncover an unprecedented single electron transfer from multiple anionic organic bases (B–X+) to nitrobenzene [1], leading to the formation of stable nitrobenzenide radical ion-pair [1•–][X+] (X = Li, Na, K) and transient oxidized, radical bases B•. Our results establish nitroarenes as versatile radical precursors, providing a broadly applicable protocol for generating heteroatom-centered radicals and enabling radical transformations under mild conditions from inexpensive and readily available starting materials. Finally, we propose the [1]–[B–X+] couple as an unexplored platform with the potential to advance the field of frustrated radical pairs.

Our first paper from the #RadicalProtON @erc.europa.eu project is out!
Turns out nitrobenzene is easily reduced by a host of anionic organo bases, unlocking nitroaromatics as potential radicals and yielding valuable radical bases in the process.

Hay un tema del que se habla poco y se debería incidir mucho más.
