From @cornellab.bsky.social‬, the first example of an organobismuth(iii) dihydride (@jacs.acspublications.org).

The compound was shown to be thermally unstable, decomposing to form a bismuth(i) species and H2.

This week in Science, researchers report an artificial molecular motor that can twist a molecular thread to form a mechanically interlocked molecule. The approach creates opportunities to fabricate mechanically interlocked molecules with precise structural control.

Engineering antisense oligonucleotides for targeted mRNA degradation through lysosomal trafficking
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) can modulate gene expression at the mRNA level, providing the ability to tackle conventionally undruggable targets and usher in an era of personalized medicine. A key mode of action for ASOs relies upon RNase H-engagement in the nucleus, however, most mature mRNA is present in the

Too kind sir. Always good to see our chemistry used in anger. And so elegantly. Congrats all!
Also thanks to Eszter Borbas (Uppsala) who both helped us get the lanthankde spectroscopy right and let us use her machine, and to @sgoldup.bsky.social for developing muxh of the rotaxane chemistry we used and for great discussions helping improve the work

Great to speak at the ISMSC in Kyoto but didn't quite leave enough time for questions (bad Steve🤨). If you have a question, find me at the dinner or message me here and I'll get back to you! If Qs are cool (and the ans is short), I'll post them here! AMA #ismsc2025
