Another work from my group has just published. In this work, we showed arylethers can be used to generate aryllithiums from mechanically ball milling with lithiums.😄🔨⚒️

Finally! The work that I worked with @cleverlab.bsky.social on crown ether cages finally published. Flexible crown ether can form cages!
Right in time for X-mas 🎄: find #JustAccepted in @jacs.acspublications.org how @shingkwam.bsky.social stuffs crown ether-decorated Pd2L4 cages with cations and anions at the same time!

Chemputers can be programmed using our chemical programming language (XDL) to make molecular machines. Great work by the team dlvr.it/TJsSjt Video done in collaboration with SciCommStudios.
