The group will soon be advertising a 3-year PDRA position @impchemistry. The successful candidate will research the synthesis and reactivity of complexes with alkaline earth-metal bonds. Start date: 03/26. Please get in touch for infomal inquries.

We are advertising for two PhD studentships in organometallic chemistry! Come and work with us from October 2026: Advert 2) findaphd.com/phds/project/p…

Great to see this exciting paper out from the group in Science. The first isolable main group metal carbonyl!

I am happy to share that our latest paper has been published in @ScienceMagazine. In this work, we report the synthesis of novel tin carbonyl and carbene complexes. Thanks to all collaborators! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… @GroupAldridge @AvHStiftung @OxfordChemistry @UniofOxford

@liampgriffin and I have reviewed recent advances in the heterometallic bonding chemistry of the alkaline earth metals @DaltonTrans. It was fun to put this together, and we hope it's useful! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

I am happy to announce that our paper on the reactivity of a neutral diboraanthracene has been selected for the @DaltonTrans 2024 Oustanding Paper Award! Thanks to all collaborators! @LabBraunschweig blogs.rsc.org/dt/2025/07/31/…

EuCOMC Organometallic chemistry meeting... Posters and talks from the group at the EuCOMC meeting in Bern @OxICFM @OxfordChemistry

A lovely time at #EUCOMC2025

Really excited to see the first publication of my PhD out now in @angew_chem! Great to be a part of this paper with @maxxdietz and @JosefBoronski investigating some exciting tin chemistry.

Catalytic methane functionalization and all it takes is... beryllium! We also compare the mechanisms of methane beryllation and borylation to reveal why Be finds it so easy @J_A_C_S @GroupAldridge pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Iron-Group 13 Metal Bimetallics! The latest paper from @liampgriffin and the first in collaboration with @TheNeidigLab is just out in @ChemEurJ - detailing the synthesis and electronic structure of iron/triel bimetallics... doi.org/10.1002/chem.2… @OxfordChemistry @OxICFM

Fully funded 3.5-year PhD studentship! Come and work on alkaline earth metal organometallic chemistry and metal-metal bonding @impchemistry! More details via the link: imperial.ac.uk/chemistry/post…

A memorable send off for @JosefBoronski All the best for your next chemistry endeavours!

Very cool chemistry from @JosefBoronski! Great to see it out in JACS 🧪

A hexavalent nickel complex! Reductive addition of three Be-Be bonds at Ni(0) produces Ni(BeCp)6. @GroupAldridge pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

@FreyaB98 @oxsci This is great Freya!!

Just published a new article in The Oxford Scientist! 'Could artificial intelligence save our planet? The role of AI in the fight against climate change' Link below! @oxsci oxsci.org/could-artifici…
