My latest paper on cyaphide chemistry is now online in @angew_chem! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
Features some cool organophosphorus anions that show how reactive the cyaphide ion can be.
Thanks @GoicoecheaGroup, Dan (twitterless), @OxICFM, and @OxfordChemistry

onlinelibrary.wiley.com Metal‐Mediated Oligomerization Reactions of the Cyaphide Anion We describe three distinct oligomerization reactions of metal complexes bonded to the cyaphide ligand (CP−). Reductive coupling of a gold cyaphido complex was found to afford a species containing a...

Check it out for some interesting cyaphide transmetallation reactions - and to learn more about this funky tetrametallic Au/Fe compound!

Excited to share that my latest paper with the @GoicoecheaGroup on the cyaphide ion is out now in @J_A_C_S!

We show that the CP- ligand can bridge iron centers in mixed-valence molecular wires that are analogous to the nodes in Prussian blue.
