Thrilled to share my first first-author publication in @green_rsc ! 🌱⚗️We succesfully introduced #mechanochemistry into our nitration toolbox in pursuit of more sustainable functionalization protocols. Find it here: 🔗tiny.cc/akvm001 #openaccess #OrganicSynthesis

Excited to share our latest work now out in @Chem_CP! A functionnalized CD that moves unidirectionally by actively opening the way in only one direction. Huge thanks to @enxu_liu and all the team! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Fully funded PhD opportunity in the design, synthesis and characterisation of artificial molecular machines - 2 years at the University of Manchester; 1-2 years at Peking University. Open only to non-Chinese nationals. If interested, please email me asap. findaphd.com/phds/project/u…

Excited to share our latest work on 4-to-5 skeletal editing towards halogenated pyrroles, and first 1st author paper for Rahma! Congrats 💪 chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

PhD positions (SNSF) available at the University of Basel (Switzerland🇨🇭)! Join a new research group working on innovative catalytic pathways to produce endergonic/endothermic molecules🔥. For more details: endergo.net/joinus.html & [email protected]

Very sad news of the passing of @sirfrasersays, a giant of chemistry for four decades. He pioneered (with J-P Sauvage) the chemistry of the mechanical bond (catenanes & rotaxanes) & recognised that their well defined motions could be useful for molecular machinery... 1/3

Budding molecular magicians are invited to apply for a 4-year PhD studentship on catalysis-driven molecular machinery (e.g. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…; nature.com/articles/s4158…; etc) available in my group, autumn 2025 start: tinyurl.com/kdw6mtcr. Position open until filled😃

The newly launched Fielden Research Group (fieldengroup.net) has two open funded PhD studentships! @UoBChemistry Group members will learn loads, from organic synthesis to microscopy. Please get in touch if you'd like to know more. RT much appreciated! Details below:

In this account we discussed the development of Nitration chemistry in @KatayevL in recent years. Check out the final version in @CHIMIA_journal chimia.ch/chimia/article… @snsf_ch @SwissChemistry @DCBPunibern @VickyValsamidou

Happy to see my first publication of my PhD out in JACS! We implement phosphine chemistry to drive a stepwise molecular motor! Big thanks for the collaboration with Patrick Zwick, @StefanBorsley, and @ProfDaveLeigh! Stay tuned!🔥 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

A couple of weeks left to apply for PhDs in our group @DurhamChemistry! Projects on creating and harnessing transmembrane gradients. Details below, retweets appreciated! Position 1: findaphd.com/phds/project/c… Position 2: findaphd.com/phds/project/d…

if chemistry ever leaves you feeling a bit like Sisyphus, Maxwell's demon knows how to help

Out now in @NatRevChem. We look at how the ratchet mechanisms that drive directional motion in biology and in the lab can also drive chemical reactions. Inaccessible transformations, like endergonic synthesis, become possible by adding some energy. nature.com/articles/s4157…

Here's my latest illustration for the article "Endergonic synthesis driven by chemical fuelling" by David A. Leigh et al.! It delves into the fascinating realm of chemically fuelled ratcheted synthesis, pushing the boundaries of endergonic transformations. Have a look at it!

Wonderful achievement toward chemically fueled synthesis by @enzoolivieri4, @James_Gall_, Alexander Betts & @Toufic_Mrad in @ProfDaveLeigh group. They drove thermodynamically unfavorable Diels-Alder reaction by coupling it to carbodiimide hydration.rb.gy/spmiih
