| We are delighted to announce the winner of our 2024 Outstanding Paper Award.
The Outstanding Paper Award is aimed at recognising the great work published in Dalton Transactions from the previous year. The process for selecting the winner involves the shortlisting of papers based on nominations by members of the Editorial Board as well as a variety of metrics including article downloads, Altmetric score and citations. The Editorial Board then votes on this shortlist to select the winner. Congratulations to this year’s winners:
In this outstanding article, the authors explored new reaction patterns of a doubly CAAC-stabilised 9,10-diboraanthracene derivative with small molecules and highlighted the structural and electronic flexibility of this framework through complexation with group 6 carbonyls. Meet the authors of this outstanding paper

Construction of Pd-based coordination cages with three geometrically distinct ligands Ru-Jin Li, Jean de Montmollin, Farzaneh Fadaei-Tirani, Rosario Scopelliti and Kay Severin* Dalton Trans., 2023, 52, 6451-6456 |
|
In this outstanding article, the authors combined three different dipyridyl ligands with [Pd(CH3CN)4](BF4)2 to give mixtures of homo- and/or heteroleptic coordination cages. They found that the structural flexibility of ligands with alkynyl spacers were important for the formation of the heteroleptic complexes.
