📣 New preprint: "4f-intermediate valence in an ytterbium–bipyridine coordination solid" chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr... We report exp. evidence for a multiconfigurational electronic ground state in a ytterbocene-based 1D polymer - the first example of intermediate valence in a coordination solid. ⚛️

🎉 Just out in Nature Comm @natcomms.nature.com "Unleashing phosphorus mononitride" 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Spearheaded by the Reinholdt group (Lund), we find that the elusive P≡N molecule finds new life in an Os complex and unlocks unique [NPS₂]²⁻, [NPCl]⁻, and aromatic [PN₄]⁻ species.
