Yesterday, we had a wonderful lunch to thank the @CBOND2024 team of @VU_TheoCheM for their outstanding job! Also on behalf of @TrevorAHamlin, @PascalVermeeren and @fmbickelhaupt.

Very cool article by Daniël Linzel about our recent publication! @Chem2W

@BioInorgChem_UW @CeliaFGuerra Check the SI of our manuscript for an example of palladium hydride, and others. The story is just the same. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

📸 Check out our new @VU_TheoCheM group photo! ❤️

Eveline Tiekink (@EvelineTiekink) of @VUamsterdam and @VU_TheoCheM presents a contributed talk @CBOND2024 on “Origin of Catalysis in Cycloaddition Reactions of Tropone.” #CBOND2024

Lucas de Azevedo Santos (@LucasAzdS) of @VUamsterdam and @VU_TheoCheM presents a contributed talk @CBOND2024 on “Intermolecular Covalent Interactions.” #CBOND2024

It's not a cover, it's a #ChemSciOnACake! And it deserves another personal shout-out from me for a great visual advertisement for your research. Also anyone looking for tips on how to design a great Graphical Abstract image should think whether it will look good on a cake!!!

@VU_TheoCheM @J_A_C_S @BeutickSteven @songyu_sc @LucasAzdS @PascalVermeeren @_LauraOrian @CeliaFGuerra @fmbickelhaupt @TrevorAHamlin I've seen papers on mugs before but I think this is the first time I've seen a #ChemSciOnACake! Congratulations on the two papers and I hope you all enjoyed the cake!

💡 Ever wondered about the story behind our latest manuscript? 🔗 Read the full story in @Chem2W here: sciencelink.net/nieuws/stapsge… Huge thanks to the team: Pablo M. Pérez García, @MariaLSP14, @CeliaFGuerra, @ME_Moret

Excited to see the work of @BeutickSteven and @songyu_sc out in @ChemicalScience!🤩 They studied the retro-Cope elimination reaction of cyclic alkynes.🖥️ Then rationally designed a suite of novel bioorthogonal reagents!😎 doi.org/10.1039/D4SC04… @_LauraOrian @fmbickelhaupt

We designed a cake to celebrate recent papers in @ChemicalScience and @J_A_C_S ! 🔥 Congrats to @BeutickSteven @songyu_sc @LucasAzdS @PascalVermeeren @_LauraOrian @CeliaFGuerra @fmbickelhaupt @TrevorAHamlin ChemSci: doi.org/10.1039/D4SC04… JACS: doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4…

@SHuberLab @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Thanks for this recommendation with another perfect example showing that misleading definitions often emerge from a vague understanding of bonding mechanisms!

In our recent work on @J_A_C_S, we object to the incorrect proposal to change the IUPAC definition of HBs. No, hydridic hydrogens cannot form HBs! Read more on: doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4… @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science

@MayankM72 @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Thank you

@LucasAzdS @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Great work! Many congratulations 🎉🎉

@ChenfengKe @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Exactly. In our main example, the Si-H moiety with negatively charged H acts as a halogen-bond acceptor, e.g., a Lewis base.

@LucasAzdS @J_A_C_S @PascalVermeeren @fmbickelhaupt @CeliaFGuerra @VU_TheoCheM @VU_Science Interesting. Should we describe these bonds as hydrogen atoms involving halogen bonds or something similar?
