Aux côtés d'@Elisabeth_Borne, rencontre avec les chercheurs du Laboratoire d'Optique et Biosciences (LOB) sur le site de l’École Polytechnique. L'occasion d'échanger sur l’importance de la recherche, le dialogue entre les disciplines scientifiques, l'importance des plateformes, de l'ingénierie et de l'instrumentation. Comprendre le fonctionnement des molécules biologiques et leur organisation dans les tissus, c'est, demain, ouvrir de nouvelles voies thérapeutiques. @Inserm @CNRS

Santa came early to us. We are very pleased to share our latest publication on "Advances in lanthanide cyclononatetraenyl chemistry" together with @GregNocton. Out now in @ChemCommun: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…
Advances in lanthanide cyclononatetraenyl chemistry

Advances in lanthanide cyclononatetraenyl chemistry

Cyclononatetraenyl (Cnt) is a nine-membered monoanionic aromatic ligand. Despite its early discovery in 1963, it has been rarely utilised in coordination c

389
👉 You will solve X-ray disorders (and try to figure out decent C-C distances) 👉 You will expose your compounds to all sorts of gas and watch them burn! 👉 You will love it for sure... Join us!
