Excited to share our first publication of 2026 and our first foray into silicon chemistry now out in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social. Huge thanks to everyone involved for their hard work! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
We report the synthesis and comprehensive characterisation of a square-planar Si(+IV) hydride supported by an unsymmetric, trianionic and dearomatised N,N,N-pincer ligand. This system enables element...

Our team before and after the Karnevalsvorlesung. Over 20 experiments and a live muscial performance. What a bang way to end the Winter semester!
Also features a wonderful collaboration with Dr. Jake Schaffner and David Blank (UMN)!
Join us tomorrow for our Karnevalsvorlesung to cap off the Winter semester! A sneak preview of the beautiful Dom awaiting the crowds. Drawn by two talented PhDs from my lab, Jiaxin Liu and Krishnendu Dey, who obviously are artistic too! @unibonn.bsky.social www.chemie.uni-bonn.de/lu/de/lu-eve...
Academic family photo from the ACS in Atlanta. Celebrating Jonas (ACS Inorganic Chemistry Award) and John @jsandersonlab.bsky.social (Harry Gray Award)... plus the feats of Francois @francoisgabbai.bsky.social (ACS Organometallic), Josh (Cotton), and Akif (Bader) at the one party to rule 'em all!
"Unraveling the Mechanism of a Co(−I)–Ga Photoreductant in the Catalytic Hydrodefluorination of Electron-Rich Fluoroarenes" is out in JACS. Co-first authors, Michael Dorantes (PhD UMN) and Francis Lam (postdoc, UniBonn) deserve special kudos. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....
