The fiddler-crab-type boranes take on another notoriously difficult transformation: the direct reduction of esters to ethers!🦀
We are thrilled to share that our latest research has just been published as a VIP paper in @angew_chem!🎉

We proudly share our latest JACS paper showing that optimized xanthenium photocages can bring light-activated drug release closer to real-world biology. Red-shifted activation, robust uncaging, and compelling validation beyond standard 2D assays. #JACS pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Finally published our most biphenylene work (so far!) in @OrgChemFront. We show that biphenylene can function as the bridge and the pillar in DAE photoswitches.

Just out: Our pitfalls warning on NICS with examples on incorrect use of this (anti)aromaticity descriptor leading to false identification of "aromaticity" and "antiaromaticity". A heroic contribution by @Wengivis. Check: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
