Great news! We have received funding for a joint project with Prof. Joohoon Kim (analchem.khu.ac.kr/xe/jkim) from South Korea. Here, we will look at the use of rotaxanes for electroanalytical chemistry. Thanks to the DFG and NRF for funding (www.dfg.de/de/aktuelles...)!

The impact of supramolecular self-association of organocatalysts on catalytic performance
Nature Reviews Chemistry, Published online: 17 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41570-025-00751-1Non-covalent interactions between organocatalyst molecules can change catalytic behaviour, leading to changes in reaction rates and selectivities. This Review discusses how to identify such interactions, measure their effect on catalysis and ultimately how to avoid or exploit them in synthesis.

After almost one month of hard work, we have finished our move. The Niemeyer group can now be found on the fifth floor of the chemistry building (S07 S05)! Following Jochen´s promotion to full professor in 2023, we could now move into wonderful new synthesis labs, analytical labs and offices!
