Last week I had the great pleasure of visiting the @szyszkobart.bsky.social group and meeting their hardworking students. In addition to amazing organisation and hospitality, all invited speakers also had the opportunity to present at the 67th PTChem Meeting. 🇵🇱🙏🏻 @chemiehhu.bsky.social
Our latest mini review on Porous Organic Cage-based Frameworks is finally edited now! 🚀

Porous Organic Cages as Building Blocks for Framework Materials
Confined nanospaces are key to the design of porous materials like COFs, MOFs, and molecular cages for applications in molecular recognition, catalysis, and energy storage. This Minireview explores t....

Structural control of dynamic covalent cages: kinetic vs. thermodynamic assembly and PFAS removal from water
Dynamic covalent chemistry is a powerful tool to synthesise complex structures from simple building blocks. However, even minor variations in the numerous parameters governing self-assembly can drasti...

Even–odd effects meet visible-light switching! 💡
Our latest paper shows how simple diamines direct the formation of azobenzene macrocycles. A bit of a lighter read in comparison to current news everywhere..:

Thank you so much for taking that picture and coming to my talk! It's a shame we could not/barely talk this time.
Thank you, it really means a lot to us 😊
When writing such articles, and it always is a lot of work and I promise myself to never to do it again, I often think this is never going to be found ^^

Our review on photoswitchable self-assembled cages and macrocycles was selected as one of the most popular articles of 2023 & 2024! It's amazing to hear it being read and well received. @jonavoss.bsky.social @hhu.de

A profound loss for science overall. An extraordinary chemist with remarkable contributions to the field of self-assembly. Condolences to the family.

Colleagues, Students, Postdocs, Collaborators and Friends of Sir Fraser Stoddart: I am writing with the sad news that Fraser passed away suddenly on 31 Dec (Australia time) while on holiday with family. No details yet on any services. He is irreplaceable.
Slowly, this very stressful year is coming to and end and we want to wish all of you a Happy Christmas time🎄 and all the best for the upcoming year 2025 🎉🐍

It's a shame that gifs do not seem to work on bluesky yet 😱
We studied a fluorinated and a non-fluorinated tetrahedral Tri4Tri4 porous organic cage for H2, CO2, and CH4 adsorption. Finally something porous from our lab again with quite some surprises regarding selectivities and stabilities 🧪⚗️ #pocs @hhu.bsky.social

Thank you for makig this great list! If possible, please add my lab account, too :)
If you drink it, you'll die! If you don't, you'll die, too!!!!
Would you mind adding our account, too? We are working on porous organic cages, especially fluorinated ones
Had the immense pleasure of hosting my mentor and friend, Makoto Fujita, for a GDCh talk yesterday 🍻🙏. Very grateful for the many students and colleagues joining the lecture, also from universities nearby, with more than 100 people attending in total.

Our latest research delves again into the world of fluorinated organic macrocycles and cages, transforming them into rigid entities bearing functional groups in exo-position using isocyanates, and further reactions thereof!
