Erinnerung: Im Bundestag wurde kürzlich lauthals gelacht, als Nyke Slawik @nykeslawik.bsky.social von Angriffen auf CSD's und queere Menschen berichtete. Gelacht. Diese unfassbare Verrohung.
Die zunehmende Gewalt gegen queere Menschen ist ein Problem für die ganze Gesellschaft. Sie trifft den demokratischen Zusammenhalt. Anstatt Streichorgien bei Bundesprogrammen, die Demokratie & queeres Leben schützen, fordern wir eine aktive Rolle der Bundesregierung gegen Gewalt an queeren Menschen!
Kolumne: Die Welt verändert sich in atemberaubendem Tempo. Sie wird heißer, schneller, fossile Geschäftsmodelle sterben zwangsläufig, neue entstehen. Die Bundesregierung setzt stattdessen auf Retro-Technik. Das ist schlecht für das Land - und schlecht für die Menschheit.
📢 Nov 3–7 @ CRC TUM: Join the South German Catalysis Institute — an intensive 5-day course giving PhD students a complete overview of catalysis (homogeneous, heterogeneous, bio, photo, electro + computational) plus industry talks. 🔗 www.crc.tum.de/crc/teaching...  #Catalysis #PhDTraining #TUM
Great EU COST LUCES workshop organized by Dr @apoethig.bsky.social and Prof @lrraurell.bsky.social at the CRC on supramolecular interactions and photophysical properties! Thanks for the wonderful science and discussion! @gmalcantar.bsky.social and Elisabeth Klaus gave excellent presentations 🤗
Very nice @lucescostaction.bsky.social workshop organized by @apoethig.bsky.social. Great scientific discussions and company @jotacarloslima.bsky.social @medbioinorgchem.bsky.social @gmalcantar.bsky.social. Happy to come back in Munich 😃👏👏
The first day of the #Crystallography in School workshop at #ECM35 was dedicated to presentations and demo sessions. It was special to see a large attendance of high school teachers at a site of historical significance, as Max von Laue, a Nobel laureate, studied there in the late 19th century.
From @apoethig.bsky.social, [2]rotaxanes with enhanced reactivity (@jacs.acspublications.org). These rotaxanes were shown to deprotect faster compared to non-interlocked structures due to conformational preorganisation. 🔗 CSD Entry XAJJEC: dx.doi.org/10.5517/ccdc... #FeaturedStructureFriday
Thrilled to share our new @J_A_C_S paper: A bulky macrocycle enhances (not hinders!) functional group reactivity in a [2]‑rotaxane. Including definition and rationalization of this positive mechanosteric effect. 📖 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... #Rotaxanes #JACS
Spotlight on Mechanosterics: A Bulky Macrocycle Promotes Functional Group Reactivity in a [2]Rotaxane
Macrocycles typically hinder the reactivity of adjacent functional groups in mechanically interlocked molecules due to steric shielding. Herein, we report a [2]rotaxane in which a bulky macrocycle in ...

Thrilled to share that after more than five years of fascinating yet complex research, our article on Metalloenzyme-like Organometallic Nanotubes is out! A huge thank you to my brilliant co-authors, collaborators, and everyone who contributed to this journey. #Supramolecular #Organometallics
Endohedral Coordination of Bulky Substrates in Metalloenzyme‐like Organometallic Nanotubes
Artificial receptors inspired by metalloenzymes share three key properties: a structurally flexible cavity, substrate binding via metal–ligand coordination, and metal-based redox activity. Herein, we...
