Our latest contributing “birth” of carbon dioxide valorization in synthetic chemistry: www.nature.com/articles/s41.... Stellar performance by Wangyu, great work!
Catalytic transformation of carbon dioxide into seven-membered heterocycles and their domino transformation into bicyclic oxazolidinones - Nature Communications
Converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable heterocycles is of great synthetic value but is usually limited to five- and six-membered ring compounds. Here, the authors report a catalytic approach fo...

hello world.

We’ve got potential PhD funding (part of an internal competition) in the group to look at designing and studying new heteromultimetallic catalysts for CO2 reduction: tinyurl.com/HetMetCO2

If you’re interested in the interface between computation and organometallics please apply!

Should publishers compensate our review work? Why are APC so high? This clear economic incentive (not ours) affects the quality and credibility of science. If we publish all data “Open”, why is there a need to pay APCs for formatted collections of data+opinions?

2 unpopular theses on academic publishing:

1) The peer-review system is treated like a golden calf, preventing a discussion of its role in today's system

2) To incentivize meaningful publications, we should pay authors and reviewers

I'm not taking a side here.

Discuss!
