Excited to share our new paper in Nat. Commun. ( https://t.co/9Sjm4Kjmxu ) on "Mechenochemical Birch reductive arylation" This is absolutely a new reaction that cannot be achieved by in-solution reaction. Congrats, Yoshifumi. #mechanochemistry @MechChemPapers

Got little time to explore Rouen city center. Beautiful place, liked it very much. Thank you very much Thomas @LabPoisson. Just click a picture in front of The Gros Horloge @LeGrosHorloge which is an astronomical clock from the 14th century in Rouen.

Along with city, this place is also associated with rich history in chemistry. Got a chance to click a picture in front of old note book of Victor Grignard. My whole PhD thesis work was on this reagent. @msm_lab
