I am thrilled to share that our work on a new NHC-betaine mechanophore is finally out. This project has been a meaningful journey and I am delighted that it all comes together. If you’re curious about mechanocatalysts and organocatalysis, this will be interesting. 👇🏻 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

In our first paper of 2026, @aliceieong.bsky.social puts NHC organocatalyst in action with mechanical force in ACS Catalysis! 🔨 NHC generated by milling a new betaine mechanophore to catalyse transesterification and polymerisation reactions. #chemsky @pubs.acs.org pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
