Our manuscript detailing the impact of carbene ligands on the synthesis, properties, and reactivity of 8 diazoboranes is now published in JACS (pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...)! Take a look at the unusual boraketenes and diazaborles! #maingroup #boron @jacs.acspublications.org

International PhD scholarship round for 2026 is open at ANU. Aspiring scholars with Masters degree, or equivalent (eg Australia/NZ Hons), interested in computational chemistry, quantum information, molecular spins, vibronic coupling, or something in that vein - get in touch!

Excited to see this work published today in @jacs.acspublications.org , fun chemistry and a real group effort here by @clairemcmullin.bsky.social , @moraleschem.bsky.social , Mary and big Mike! (@bathchem.bsky.social) pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Thanks to Jake and Darren @dr-dwillcox.bsky.social for leading this work - I've very much enjoyed getting back to my heavy group 13 roots!

Our groups first foray into heterobimetallic Zn/Al chemistry. Congratulations to Jake, Josef, Avantika, George, Nik and @millsgroupchem.bsky.social. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr...

We are recruiting! Two 24 month postdoc positions are available with @m-l-baker.bsky.social and I, one mainly synthesis and the other measurements of lanthanide SMMs. Links below, deadline 19th Aug - please re-post: www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai... www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

Happy to see the latest Hill/@clairemcmullin.bsky.social paper out in @chemistryeurope.bsky.social. We've found you can interconvert group 1 alumanyls by redox reactions with elemental alkali metals (no beryllium needed this time ;)). chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

A Ca(I) synthon with bridging N2 is key to the synthesis of homometallic Ca peroxide and oxide complexes. In solution, the Ca oxide complex decomposes even at -80 C. It can only be prepared in the solid state. @ChemCommun @RoySocChem shorturl.at/AUoWM

Happy to share that our paper entitled "Neutral P4 coordination and reduction at alkaline earth metal centers" is now online in @cp-chem.bsky.social! Here is a short animated video to accompany this work 🧪💎 tinyurl.com/23vbtuju #ozchem #scicomm #blender #maingroupchem

Happy to share our recent paper in @chemcomm.rsc.org has been accepted! Development of unsymmetrical bis(anilido)xanthene ligands and their magnesium complexes are discussed 🧑‍🔬 doi.org/10.1039/D5CC...

Good day for the Jones group! My colleague @dat-tienng.bsky.social and I received awards for our talks on group 2 chemistry! Also congrats to Joseph from Matt Anker group for his poster prize as well as to all the others! 🏆

Happy to see that my design for the cover of @naturechemistry.bsky.social is now online! Thank you to Dr. Anker and colleagues for the opportunity to illustrate their research. You can read about their paper here: doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Woo hoo! The first molecular Pb-Al bond and some great reactivity studies! chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
