Magnetically recyclable catalytic carbon nanoreactors (2018)
Journal Article

Multifunctional nanoreactors are assembled using hollow graphitized carbon nanofibers (GNFs) combined with nanocatalysts (Pd or Pt) and magnetic nanoparticles. The latter are introduced in the form of carbon‐coated cobalt nanomagnets (Co@Cn) adsorbed... Read More about Magnetically recyclable catalytic carbon nanoreactors.

Covalent Post-assembly Modification Triggers Multiple Structural Transformations of a Tetrazine-Edged Fe4L6 Tetrahedron (2018)
Journal Article

Covalent post-assembly modification (PAM) reactions are useful synthetic tools for functionalizing and stabilizing self-assembled metal–organic complexes. Recently, PAM reactions have also been explored as stimuli for triggering supramolecular struct...

Application of 'smart' amine donors for rapid screening and scale-up of transaminase-mediated biotransformations (2018)
Journal Article

The 'smart' amine donors o‐xylylenediamine and cadaverine were employed for the rapid screening of a large ketone library and subsequent preparative‐scale synthesis of selected compounds using the commercially available amine transaminase, ATA256. Th... Read More about Application of 'smart' amine donors for rapid screening and scale-up of transaminase-mediated biotransformations.

Dynamic nuclear polarisation enhanced solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance studies of surface modification of γ-alumina (2018)
Journal Article

Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) gives large (>100-fold) signal enhancements in solid-state NMR spectra via the transfer of spin polarization from unpaired electrons from radicals implanted in the sample. This means that the detailed information ab... Read More about Dynamic nuclear polarisation enhanced solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance studies of surface modification of γ-alumina.

High-temperature molecular beam epitaxy of hexagonal boron nitride with high active nitrogen fluxes (2018)
Journal Article

Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) has attracted much attention as a key component in van der Waals heterostructures and as a wide band gap material for deep-ultraviolet devices. We have recently demonstrated plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE... Read More about High-temperature molecular beam epitaxy of hexagonal boron nitride with high active nitrogen fluxes.

Carbene in Cupredoxin Protein Scaffolds: Replacement of a Histidine Ligand in the Active Site Substantially Alters Copper Redox Properties (2018)
Journal Article

N?heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have had a major impact in homogeneous catalysis, however, their potential role in biological systems is essentially unexplored. We replaced a copper?coordinating histidine (His) in the active site of the redox en...

Nitrogen-bridged, natural product-like octahydrobenzofurans and octahydroindoles: scope and mechanism of bridge-forming reductive amination via caged heteroadamantanes (2018)
Journal Article

The biological significance of sp3-rich synthetic scaffolds with natural product-like features yet distinct global frameworks is being increasingly recognised in medicinal chemistry and biochemistry. Taking inspiration from the vast array of bioactiv...

Comparative nanostructure analysis of gasoline turbocharged direct injection and diesel soot-in-oil with carbon black (2018)
Journal Article

Two gasoline turbocharged direct injection (GTDI) and two diesel soot-in-oil samples were compared with one flame-generated soot sample. High resolution transmission electron microscopy imaging was employed for the initial qualitative assessment of t...

Enantioselective Synthesis of Chiral Cyclopent-2-enones by Nickel-Catalyzed Desymmetrization of Malonate Esters (2018)
Journal Article

Significant enhancement of structural stability of the hyperhalophilic ADH from Haloferax volcanii via entrapment on metal organic framework support (2018)
Journal Article

The use of an in-situ immobilization procedure for the immobilization of hyperhalophilic alcohol dehydrogenase in a metal organic framework material is described. The easy and rapid in situ immobilization process enables retention of activity over a...
