Gusteau said “Anyone can cook!” — we say “Anyone can do arylxenonium!” 👨‍🍳🧪 Our general approach for the synthesis of arylxenonium(II) salts hits the front cover of Inorganic Chemistry! Cover cooked to perfection by Miriam. #Ratatouille #MyACSCover @ACSPublications

It has been a couple of weeks already since our paper on the Lewis acidity of arylxenonium(II) ions made it to the cover of #CellRepPhysSci! We are so thankful to Miriam for the great artwork and to the editors for selecting it. #TeamXenon Publication: cell.com/cell-reports-physic…

We are so happy to see our paper on arylxenonium(II) ions as tunable Lewis acids published in Cell Rep. Phys. Sci.!! Have a look at this unprecented evaluation of the strength of noble-gas-based Lewis acids, an interesting summer read :) cell.com/cell-reports-physic…

Yoshio Barrera introduces oxide ion affinity (OIA) as a metric for double Lewis acidity in geminal dications. Strong linear correlations with fluoride ion affinities enable direct scale conversion. OIA predicts oxophilicity in diphosphonium dications. cell.com/cell-reports-physic…

📣Our new paper is out in @JACS (our very first one)!🥳 We show how a redox-active ligand unlocks C–X bond scission at an ambiphilic T-shaped Bi(III) compound. A big collaborative effort with my brilliant colleagues from Berlin. 👉pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Great video to get to know #fluorine and its chemistry!! Amazing work by @Pontebata and @RiedelLab. And of course a big shoutout to @NiklasLimberg for the impressive technique ;) Gran vídeo para dar a conocer el flúor y su química a los hispanohablantes! No os lo perdáis :)
🔥NUEVO VIDEO🔥 Dentro de una inofensiva roca se escondía una bestia. Todo aquel que intentó obtenerlo pagó el precio de su osadía. En este vídeo verás como es trabajar cara a cara con el elemento más peligroso de la tabla periódica. Hoy en Ponte Bata: el flúor Link 👇
