Yadagiri & co-workers explore how #carbenes from diazo compounds unlock cyclopropenation, C–H insertion, annulation & cycloadditions under visible light🌈 Forging C=C, C–C & C–heteroatom bonds in a single step — often without a photocatalyst, opening new doors to #heterocycles

Wohooo! My story on #carbenes to cut corrosion is now in the @chemistryworld.com top 3 🙌🏼🎉🥳 Thanks everyone for reading and sharing – and ICYMI here's the link again: www.chemistryworld.com/news/carbene... 🧪 #Science #Corrosion #chemistry #ChemSky

Carbene coating completely cuts corrosion on iron surfaces A 'molecular double-sided tape' protects iron from rusting with 99.6% efficiency

Cool!

Could we maybe use polymerisable backbones on the NHCs to do this in just two steps? 🤔

May have outdone myself with the alliterations 💅🏼 but apart from that I'm pretty proud of this piece. Check it out! #Carbenes to stop corrosion. #ChemSky #realtimechem @angewandtechemie.bsky.social 🧪

Extraordinary fun with laughing gas and @kay-severin.bsky.social #EPFL #eucomc2025: acrobatics with cleaving either bond of #N2O with #carbenes and ventures into #vinylidene carbene complexes! #keynote
