Thrilled to share the very first research paper from my lab is now online in @angew_chem : onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…. We report the SuFEx-driven, active template, gram-scale synthesis of mechanically planar chiral (MPC) rotaxanes & a new sythetic method for MPC catenanes.

A great pleasure hosting @NairoukhGroup today! Really enjoyed his fascinating talk on regioselective substitution and dearomatization of pyridine derivatives. Thanks Zack for coming and looking forward for more exciting chemistry to come!

Breaking selectivity boundaries in oxidative phenol coupling. Hydroxo multicopper clusters enable ortho–ortho selective oxidative coupling of phenols. Check out our joint work with the @roithovagroup, now featured in @J_A_C_S ! 🧪pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Our latest article in #OL describes the synthesis of 2 boron-assembled rotaxanes. One of these bears threaded BODIPYs as stoppers, making it highly bright: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs… Fluorescence only triggered upon removal of 1 boron. @chimie_ISCR @HicguetMatthieu @JOC_OL

Excited to share my first preprint as an independent PI! appeared today on @ChemRxiv. We report a simple and practical route to 2,5-disubstituted thiazoles from N-substituted α-amino acids. A versatile method with broad scope. Check it out: [chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…] #NewPI

Great to speak @ISMSC2025 but didn't quite leave enough time for questions (bad Steve🤨). If you have a question, find me at the dinner or message me here and I'll get back to you! If Qs are cool (and the ans is short), I'll post it in reply here! AMA #ismsc2025
