Peptide macrocyclisation via intramolecular interception of visible-light-mediated desulfurisation (2024)
Journal Article

Synthetic methods that enable the macrocyclisation of peptides facilitate the development of effective therapeutic and diagnostic tools. Herein we report a peptide cyclisation strategy based on intramolecular interception of visible-light-mediated cy...

Journal Article

Aims: To synthesize novel more potent anti-diabetic agents. Methodology: A simple cost effective Hantzsch's synthetic strategy was used to synthesize 2-(2-arylidenehydrazinyl)thiazol-4(5H)-ones. Results: Fifteen new 2-(2-arylidenehydrazinyl)thiazol-4... Read More about Synthesis, anti-diabetic profiling and molecular docking studies of 2-(2- arylidenehydrazinyl)thiazol-4(5H)-ones.

Process Intensification of the Continuous Synthesis of Bio-Derived Monomers for Sustainable Coatings Using a Taylor Vortex Flow Reactor (2024)
Journal Article

We describe the optimization and scale-up of two consecutive reaction steps in the synthesis of bio-derived alkoxybutenolide monomers that have been reported as potential replacements for acrylate-based coatings ( Sci. Adv. 2020, 6, eabe0026). These... Read More about Process Intensification of the Continuous Synthesis of Bio-Derived Monomers for Sustainable Coatings Using a Taylor Vortex Flow Reactor.

Fluid-rock interaction experiments with andesite at 100°C for potential carbon storage in geothermal reservoirs (2024)
Journal Article

Geothermal energy extraction often results in the release of naturally occurring carbon dioxide (CO2) as a byproduct. Research on carbon storage using volcanic rock types other than basalt under both acidic and elevated temperature conditions has bee...

Machine learning insights into predicting biogas separation in metal-organic frameworks (2024)
Journal Article

Breakthroughs in efficient use of biogas fuel depend on successful separation of carbon dioxide/methane streams and identification of appropriate separation materials. In this work, machine learning models are trained to predict biogas separation pro... Read More about Machine learning insights into predicting biogas separation in metal-organic frameworks.

Mechanistic investigations of the Fe(ii) mediated synthesis of squaraines (2024)
Journal Article

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...

Strain-modulated defect engineering of two-dimensional materials (2024)
Journal Article

Strain- and defect-engineering are two powerful approaches to tailor the opto-electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, but the relationship between applied mechanical strain and behavior of defects in these systems remains elusive. Us... Read More about Strain-modulated defect engineering of two-dimensional materials.

Multiple drug-delivery strategies to enhance the pharmacological and toxicological properties of Mefenamic acid (2024)
Journal Article

Objective: To improve the biological and toxicological properties of Mefenamic acid (MA), the galactosylated prodrug of MA named MefeGAL was included in polymeric solid dispersions (PSs) composed of poly(glycerol adipate) (PGA) and Pluronic® F68 (Mef...

Simultaneous geraniol and citronellol transesterification using Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase for the production of fragrance and flavour esters: a kinetic study (2024)
Journal Article

This study aims to develop, for the very first time, a kinetic model for the simultaneous transesterification of geraniol and citronellol using Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase to produce their respective esters. This allows us to test the feasibility...
