"Observation of a single-electron bond in carbon, the basic building block of life on Earth, has excited scientists." Time to update chemistry textbooks?! #ChemSkywww.nature.com/articles/d41...
The fundamental discovery deepens scientistsā understanding of chemical bonding.
#ChemSky An amazing read!
Ever wonder why there a table of the physical properties of whiskers in the CRC? Or wonder what the heck the CRC is and what it has to do with chemistry? or House of Dragons? or turgid guinea pig urine? Read my latest for Nature Chemistry and find out! rdcu.be/dVakl

Stumbled upon a 2007 paper on total synthesis of azadirachtin that took about 22 years (say two decades) to complete. This is how a researcher exemplifies persistence on lab-bench. For a few days, this paper shall be sitting on my desk for a detailed read onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...
Hydrogen is important clean energy carrier, but transporting them poses a major challenge. A new lightweight material that adsorbs high volumes of hydrogen shall address that problem www.chemistryworld.com/news/supramo...
Porous catenated network is light weight and stores high volumes of hydrogen
Finally! My hands on blue beauty. The desk where I literally slogged with cruel editing, authoring and reviewing. Personally, this project was a unique experience and learning #Touchwood#sciencepublishingecosystem Book launched officially!
Does anyone have experience working as an adaptor of the published book? Requesting those with experience working on adapting a published title to share their thoughts like time required, workload etc.
