Happy to have our Pu chemistry out there- congrats again @KaitlynOtte! (And what a treat to collaborate with a best friend- @AlexBredar thank you all for being part of this! 🫶🏻 )

Join us under the disco ball in our first plutonium paper and August flavor of the month, out now in JACS near you! (Blackberry cheesecake is still postponed) Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer at the Pu5+/4+ Couple pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac… Congrats @KaitlynOtte et al!

Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer at the Pu5+/4+ Couple

Abstract. The synthesis and solution and solid-state characterization of [Pu4+(NPC)4], 1-Pu, (NPC = [NPtBu­(pyrr)2]−; tBu = C­(CH3)3; pyrr = pyrrolidinyl)

Low-coordinate neptunium 4+ robbed of electron, steals it back (you'll never guess how!!) ➡️ nature.com/articles/s41557-0… @jenchem @KaitlynOtte @Popov_Group @bessvlai @Storms_LaPierre

Now serving fresh distortion metrics and and some redoxulously sweet correlations. Congrats to @acboggiano on this massive undertaking! ⚡🙌 @popov_vanek @Storms_LaPierre pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Structural distortion by alkali metal cations modulates the redox and electronic properties of Ce3+...

A series of Ce3+ complexes with counter cations ranging from Li to Cs are presented. Cyclic voltammetry data indicate a significant dependence of the oxida

We are TRUly excited that the very first paper from our transuranic facility is online at @angew_chem! ☢️🩷 Great work on this big lift, team!! @KaitlynOtte @jenchem_ @Storms_LaPierre And congratulations to @KaitlynOtte on her first paper! 🧨🔥doi.org/10.1002/anie.2023065…

Divergent Stabilities of Tetravalent Cerium, Uranium, and Neptunium Imidophosphorane Complexes **

The unusual redox properties of Ce, U, and Np in a homoleptic imidophosphorane ligand field include large cathodic shifts in the M4+/3+ (M=Ce, U, Np) couples and an unprecedented, well-behaved...

We are very happy to see our latest work published @NatureComms. We are very excited as we venture in to understanding the electronic structure of Ln4+ and other intermediate coupled ions and its impact on macroscopic behavior of these materials. rdcu.be/ddlYP

The value some of you place on maintaining an unseasoned laboratory environment is obvious. More to come on how some of you are lacking in a soon to be published commentary.

I love how some people think because my students and I fuse our love for the arts with science that somehow we are incompetent. It takes us way less time to record a video than you spend trolling Twitter, gossiping and chaperoning your devil children to their various activities.
