After a full day of physical organic chemistry at #ESOR2023 symposium in Amsterdam, time for diner with Robert Mayer, Ofial_Lab, Marc-Etienne Moret | @[email protected] and Martin Breugst. #ESOR2023 . Great to meet previous colleagues and new one!

Armin R. Ofial (Ofial_Lab) of Universität München presents a contributed talk ESOR2023 on the upper limit of nucleophilicity scales: mesoionic N-heterocyclic olefins. #ESOR2023

We invite you to join our Virtual Symposium on October 11, moderated by GrebGroup, in which four experts will present and discuss exciting aspects of modern Lewis-acid Chemistry.

Our joint work with Ofial_Lab is just accepted Angewandte Chemie. Big thanks to the team for their great effort! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Great to see Magenta's MarieSkłodowskaCurie 'SImCat' work - The effect of S-alkylation on organocatalytic enamine activation through imidazolidine-4-thiones - in cooperation with Trapp Research Group now published in ChemComm - pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Hammond's Postulate - some new insights on a classic of physical organic chemistry (doi.org/10.1002/ijch.2…)

Happy to see our ICPOC25 Hiroshima conference paper 'Reactivity of electrophilic cyclopropanes' with nice contributions by Andreas published! Read on degruyter.com/document/doi/1… De Gruyter Official

Can Mayr’s reactivity scales be applied to rationalize the mechanism of 3+2 cycloadditions? Absolutely! Check out Le‘s massive kinetic work in J. Am. Chem. Soc. to which I contributed the computational analysis. Ofial_Lab doi.org/10.1021/jacs.2…

Check out our recent article live now in J. Am. Chem. Soc.! Big congratulations to Le Li who obtained the interesting kinetic data and Robert Mayer who contributed the computational analysis!! Excellent work!

Congratulations to Le Li who successfully defended her dissertation yesterday!!! Well done Dr. Li! 🎉🥳

The 1st part of the special issue in SYNTHESIS (Thieme Chemistry), in honor of Prof Alain Krief @Unamur just arrived in my office. Starting 2023 with great reviews, minireviews and articles. thieme-connect.com/products/ejour…. Thanks Mark Lautens, Stefanie Baumann, Martin Oestreich. 1/2

Today a Belgian icon of chemistry is turning 80🍾🎂. On the behalf of the UNamur chemistry department and of hundreds of authors and participants to the SYNTHESIS special issue (@Thiemechemistry : thieme-connect.com/products/ejour… ) and to the forthcoming symposium, we wish...▶️▶️
