Computational collaborator on the oxoborane paper

Chemists have chased oxoboranes, molecules with a triple bond between boron and oxygen, since at least the early 1960s. They could only be glimpsed under extreme conditions or inferred from side products. Now a team at the University of Würzburg has made three of them as orange and yellow solids that sit in a flask and can be studied.
