Always great to collaborate with @nclpharmacy.bsky.social. Check out this article In Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics that includes a structure from the Service: link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Apparently I like to pace. A lot.
Go time!
We will be preaching the good word of RODIN at JABC17 on Thursday
Can my next Fisher Scientific order look like this please?
Happy 100th, deskmate

Pleased to see this study by Erli Lu at @unibirmingham.bsky.social on the reactivity of C-Si bonds in print. Some really cool structures in this one, including two from the Service: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

The polyfunctional pyrrole 3,5-dichloro-1H-pyrrole-2,4-dicarbaldehyde (2) was reacted with malononitrile and Meldrum’s acid in a regioselective manner to yield derivatives (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10). Com...

The crystal structure of a 2,3,9,9a-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole in the space group Ia is reported, showing Z′ = 6 and approximate Fdd2 symmetry, and compared to the low Z′ crystal structures of two close...
Anionic α-silyl alkyl is one of the most used organometallic building blocks and funtional groups. Traditionally, the C─Si bond in these complexes is considered as inert. In this work, we report a se....
A simple mechanochemical setup enables the rapid, solvent-free preparation of organosodium compounds directly from sodium lumps without the need for strictly inert conditions, rendering these previous...

Nature Synthesis
The current ordering of space groups in Vol. A of International Tables for Crystallography is so full of inconsistencies that its basic patterns are obscured. A revised order based on a small number of principles has been developed. It should be especially useful for teaching.
