Two independent analyses show that when looking at the size of substrate scopes published in Organic Letters, or in Organic Letters and JACS combined, the average number of examples reported has more than doubled in the past decade. #ChemSky

Excellent review by @jonasoliverwenzel.bsky.social and Johannes Werner on "Non-Innocent Ligands as Mediators for Visible-Light-Initiated Element–Carbon Bond Homolysis in Main Group Chemistry" just out in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social 👍👉 doi.org/10.1002/anie...

The first mono ortho-phenylene bridged Al/P FLP was synthesized and characterized. Its reactivity was probed against several small molecules. Thanks to Melina Dianas 👍 doi.org/10.1002/ejic...

I am pleased to share that our comprehensive reactivity screening, including all failed and unexpected reactions, has been accepted by EurJIC. In my opinion it is really important to publish "non positive" reactions and results because we learn a lot from failed reactions!

On my way to #Chemiedozententagung in Braunschweig organised by @gdch.bsky.social. If you are interested in alkaline metal or hydrophosphination chemistry please be invited to my talk at 16.30 at Audimax. Looking forward meeting old and new friends!
