Low-valent bismuth as nucleophilic catalyst! Cornellab MarieSkłodowskaCurie
In contrast to traditional Bi(III) Lewis-acids, Bi(I) can emulate nucleophilic P(III) compounds in catalysis.

A small detour from Bi-radicals now out in Adv. Synth. & Catal. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

Omg! I am over the moon! I am really exited to finally see a part of my PhD out now in ACS Catalysis! Interested in cool supra complexes and counterion effects on catalysis? Take a look! 👇🏻👇🏻

Nice to see our first article on the photochemical 💡skeletal enlargement of pyridines online!! After many efforts, we succeeded in making 1,2-diazepine analogs by inserting an extra N-atom. Congrats to everyone involved ! XavierMoreau Institut Lavoisier Versailles

Omar from Sophie Benjamin group stayed with us a few years ago to learn about Computational Chemistry, and part of this work has just been published online Organometallics. Read about triarylchlorostibonium cations with tunable Lewis acidity. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Yes, it is a bismuthinidene.
Yes, it is stable.
Yes, it is a triplet.
Yes, it is non-magnetic.
