Herein, we investigate the β-thio-δ-diimine (BTDDI) ligand, recently reported as a sulfur containing analogue of the established BODDI framework, as a platform for mono- and bimetallic Cu(I) and Zn(II...

Today would have been Primo Levi's birthday. Chemist, Holocaust survivor, and one of the most powerful literary voices of the 20th century, Levi returned again and again to a central insight in his work: chemistry is never neutral. It carries the weight of human responsibility.  This is the spiri...
