From @maxdietz.bsky.social and Simon Aldridge’s group, an example of a main-group tin-carbonyl complex (@science.org).

Above 0 degrees Celsius, this CO complex rearranges to form a tin carbene complex.

In @science.org this week from Simon Aldridge's group, CO is a sneaky thief: binds unexpectedly to tin at low temp, then steals both its ligands to make a carbene 🧪

A main-group metal carbonyl complex: Structure and isomerization to a carbene-stabilized tin atom
In contrast to transition elements, s- and p-block metal compounds that coordinate carbon monoxide (CO) under near-ambient conditions are elusive. Here, we report an isolable, crystalline main-group m...

Exited to share that the first paper of my postdoc in the Aldridge Group is finally out in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social! In this work, we studied addition processes of different E-E bonds at tin(II) and got some really unique compounds! @josefboronski.bsky.social @amelia-swarbrook.bsky.social
