Read now in Chem @cellpress.bsky.social how @eliebenchimol.bsky.social uses adjacent backbone interactions (ABI) to control self-sorting of chiral heteroleptic Pd3A2B4 isosceles triangles („star destroyers“) and Pd4A4C4 pseudo-tetrahedra: doi.org/10.1016/j.ch... @grk2376.bsky.social

Great start to the week with our latest carpyridine findings out in @jacs.acspublications.org! Water and carpys now self-assemble together, forming linear stacks as revealed by micro-ED. Check it out: doi.org/10.1021/jacs... @michelrickhaus.bsky.social @avj-chem.bsky.social @rickhauslab.bsky.social
A Supramolecular Nanosheet Assembled from Carpyridines and Water
The use of water as a solvent to facilitate supramolecular self-assembly and polymerization is well-documented; however, it is rare that water acts as a monomer that undergoes polymerization. We repor...

Last Wednesday I had the honor of receiving the @solvationsci.bsky.social PhD award from the hands of Dr. Klaus Engel during the new year's reception of RESOLV at the TU Dortmund. It rewards my contribution on studying solvation effects on caged with @cleverlab.bsky.social 🧑🔬🕺🏻🙏🏻
Happy to share that I was awarded the Bayer Promotion PhD prize from Technische Universität Dortmund for my research with @cleverlab.bsky.social Honored to receive this and nice be back in Dortmund for a short time. 🧑🔬🙏🏻
Happy to see the 2nd chapter of my thesis work with @cleverlab.bsky.social out in JACS. We show how a multicage system can be used to segregate multiple guests. #justaccepted pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
Guest Segregation in Heteromeric Multicage Systems
Dynamically interconvertible metallo-supramolecular multicomponent assemblies, coexisting orthogonally in solution, serve as simplified mimics for complex networks found in biological systems. Buildin...

Just when best Brudi @eliebenchimol.bsky.social moves to the Netherlands I go away!! Big news coming soon 😍😍 #TeamFigure8 #CleverFamily
We found a new catenation mode of Pd4L8 interpenetrated double cages: instead of a classic D4-symmetric dimer, the staggered structure has C2h symmetry, stabilized by non-covalent interactions. Just out in @angew_chem Support: RESOLV @SolvationSci @desy doi.org/10.1002/anie...
First post on Bluesky to share our #justaccepted work in Angewandte Chemie. A great collaboration between @cleverlab.bsky.social , Prof. Gunnlaugsson and Prof. Stein. We show an in depth experimental and theoritical analysis of chiral induction on pristine C60 and C70. Happy to see this out!🥰🎉⚽👨🔬
hello world. The Clever Lab @ TU Dortmund is now on BlueSky!
