We are seeking to hire a postdoctoral research associate with expertise in the on-surface synthesis of graphenic/PAH materials and polymers. Pursuits will involve the synthesis of nanographenes and graphene nanoribbons, with a focus on their optical and electronic properties.

Magnesium induced CO homologation to give value-added products is all the rage right now. @chem_kong and co-workers have just made it catalytic! Nice work pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021… #ozchem

Interesting computational take on our long term exptal study on the di-, tri-, tetra- and hexamerisation of CO using Mg(I) compoundshas appeared @ChemRxiv . Another experimental contribution on this should be out soon. #ozchem tinyurl.com/yj29jsj8

Joe (@josephmparr) and co's work on using the normally inert NMR standard, TMS, as a ligand towards very Lewis acidic, neutral Ca and Sr complexes, has appeared as a pre-print @ChemRxiv. tinyurl.com/mr3sfccr.

Our recent paper @ChemicalScience has been selected as a HOT article by the editors 🔥. Nice recognition of all the work put into it by those involved. #Chem_In_Aust
Kraken the Mg(0) code: Yixiao, Maryam and Sophie's ink-credible paper on a TCHP substituted analogue of Harders's heavily-armed Mg(0) cmpd, high yields of Mg(0)/Mg(I) clusters, and their redn of TM carbonyls, has been accepted @ChemicalScience.

Yep. Both aryls are pretty special. Couldn’t help myself with the ToC 😇 The Kraken fights on!
Great to see that TCHP can also do the trick👍 and .... that the octopus manages to grab that spear and the divers leg. More to follow very soon from the octopus!

Yixiao, Maryam and Sophie's preprint on work extending Harder's Mg(0) cmpd to new, stable Mg(0) and Mg(0)/Mg(I) examples, and their reduction of TM carbonyls, is out @ChemRxiv. TCHP is a great, easy to prepare, stabilizing aryl. #ozchem @ChemistryMonash tinyurl.com/5yh3sd2z
