Led by Lucy Huffman and with @francogroupuofr.bsky.social, our latest in @rsc.org Dalton Transactions investigates the dynamic behavior of tris(amidate)amine iron complexes. Includes a super cool structural characterization of a trigonal monopyramidal Fe(III) complex! tinyurl.com/4ffdj4vb
Assessing structure and dynamics of iron complexes supported by tris(amidate)amine ligands
Chelating ligand platforms derived from tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (TREN) can facilitate low coordination numbers and provide opportunities to tune the steric and electronic profile of the secondary coor...

A bittersweet time in the group. Paul Yoon completed his fifth-year MS degree, while Marina Zapesochny and Miranda Stewart graduated with their BS degrees. Marina and Miranda are respectively headed for Cornell and UMN to pursue their Chemistry PhDs. We'll miss all of you and wish you the best!

It's a great day for #MyFirstChemSci! In our new paper led by grad student Bevan Whitehead, we show that a fluorophilic Zn-based metal–organic framework shows a very large selectivity for CF4 adsorption over N2... just not in the way we thought it might.
