From @maxdietz.bsky.social and Simon Aldridge’s group, an example of a main-group tin-carbonyl complex (@science.org). Above 0 degrees Celsius, this CO complex rearranges to form a tin carbene complex. 🔗 CSD Entry ELAMIR: dx.doi.org/10.5517/ccdc... #FeaturedStructureFriday #CompChemSky

In @science.org this week from Simon Aldridge's group, CO is a sneaky thief: binds unexpectedly to tin at low temp, then steals both its ligands to make a carbene 🧪 chemsky www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Crystal structures of CO bound to a diboryl tin complex on the left, and a tin carbene on the right with the borons migrated to C and O

I am happy to share that our latest paper has been published in @science.org. In this work, we report the synthesis of novel tin carbonyl and carbene complexes. Thanks to all collaborators! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @humboldt-foundation.de @oxfordchemistry.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk

A main-group metal carbonyl complex: Structure and isomerization to a carbene-stabilized tin atom
In contrast to transition elements, s- and p-block metal compounds that coordinate carbon monoxide (CO) under near-ambient conditions are elusive. Here, we report an isolable, crystalline main-group m...

CAAC-stabilised 9,10-diboraanthracene: an electronically and structurally flexible platform for small-molecule activation and metal complexation
A biradical cyclic alkyl(amino)carbene-stabilised 9,10-diboraanthracene (DBA) activates small molecules such as hydrogen, phenyl azide or TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl) across its two bor...

Exited to share that the first paper of my postdoc in the Aldridge Group is finally out in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social! In this work, we studied addition processes of different E-E bonds at tin(II) and got some really unique compounds! @josefboronski.bsky.social @amelia-swarbrook.bsky.social
