Advanced Science, 12(12), Article 2415496. https://doi.org/10.1002/advs.202415496

Metal nanoparticles-based nanoinks have shown potential for fabricating metallic components essential to the realization of innovative 3D-printed electronic devices. However, fabricating metallic patterns on flexible, heat-sensitive substrates remain...

Mechanistic investigations of the Fe(ii) mediated synthesis of squaraines (2024)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Coles, N. T., Cajiao, N., Taylor, L. J., Davies, E. S., Barbour, A., Morgan, P. J., Butler, K., Pointer-Gleadhill, B., Argent, S. P., McMaster, J., Neidig, M. L., Robinson, D., & Kays, D. L. (2024). Mechanistic investigations of the Fe(ii) mediated synthesis of squaraines. Chemical Science, 15(25), 9599-9611. https://doi.org/10.1039/D4SC01286K

The scission and homologation of CO is a fundamental process in the Fischer–Tropsch reaction. However, given the heterogeneous nature of the catalyst and forcing reaction conditions, it is difficult to determine the intermediates of this reaction. He...

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 62(23), Article e202302446. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202302446

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new class of hybrid Wells–Dawson polyoxometalate (POM) containing a diphosphoryl group (P2O6X) of the general formula [P2W17O57(P2O6X)]6− (X=O, NH, or CR1R2). Modifying the bridging unit X was... Read More about Diphosphoryl‐functionalized Polyoxometalates: Structurally and Electronically Tunable Hybrid Molecular Materials.

Direct routes to functional RAFT agents from substituted N-alkyl maleimides (2022)
Journal Article
Catania, R., Foralosso, R., Spanos, L., Russo, E., Mastrotto, F., Gurnani, P., Butler, K., Williams, H., Stolnik, S., & Mantovani, G. (2022). Direct routes to functional RAFT agents from substituted N-alkyl maleimides. Polymer Chemistry, 13(45), 6261-6267. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1py01565f

N-substituted maleimides have become an indispensable tool for the synthesis of bioconjugates and functional materials. Herein, we present three strategies for the incorporation of N-alkyl substituted maleimides into RAFT agents and show that these m...
