SOLVENT-FREE ALKALINE-EARTH ALKYLS are very useful precursors in group 2 chemistry. Here we report facile syntheses of highly reactive Ca, Sr and Ba complexes, partially by ball-mill methods. @Orgmet_ACS doi.org/10.1021/acs.organome…

Even microwave conditions did not lead to deprotonation of the arm. But the tridentate nacnac ligand stabilizes heteroleptic Sr complexes which are normally very much prone to Schlenk equilibria. @ZAAC_Journal doi.org/10.1002/zaac.70135

A PN adamamtane for MOFs! Our 1st (successful) foray into MOFs. Conceived + executed by student Pinelopi Tsami. Larger, flexible, e-rich (10 lone pairs!), PNMR active vs adamamtane tetrabenzoic acid. Happy to ship you some! Paper: doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.15… @chemistryatuvic

Another element joins our expedition on main group Lewis acids! After Bi, Sb, Sn & Al, we now access a Ge(IV) centre using Tp! Ge shows superior activity than Sn(IV) in phosphine oxide deoxygenation, an intriguing reversal of expected down the group trend. doi.org/10.1039/D6DT01955B

Our work on Ni(0)-mediated C−H Activation of Ph2CN2 is now online! While most metal-diazo species release N2 to give carbenes, we found that the secondary boron-diazo interaction can retain the N2 unit and facilitate the conversion of coordinated diazo ligands into heterocycles
