Related to our previous Nature paper, we retracted two other papers dealing with graphene nanoribbons.
We deeply regret any confusion that may have been created with these papers and sincerely apologize to the scientific community.

The most enjoyable, informative, and educational review by Ken Houk on the evolution of Diels-Alder reaction mechanism! This is the history and we all should read! Lots of story of RB Woodward and the final Coda by Roald Hoffmann is just wonderful!

I was so disappointed to see the retracted
@angew_chem
article by Hudlicky. Promoting racist and sexist views points are just unacceptable. Diversity is a enabling element for everything and we will keep on enjoying and appreciating diversity-enabled great science.

Hiroki’s symmetrical and half-substituted fluoro-CPPs are now out in
@ChemCommun
! One of the derivatives was converted to densely substituted CPP with 16 pyrrole rings with the largest average torsion angle ever observed for CPPs! Huge congrats Hiroki!
