A Click Chemistry Strategy for the Synthesis of Efficient Photoinitiators for Two‐Photon Polymerization (2020)
Journal Article
Henning, I., Woodward, A. W., Rance, G. A., Paul, B. T., Wildman, R. D., Irvine, D. J., & Moore, J. C. (2020). A Click Chemistry Strategy for the Synthesis of Efficient Photoinitiators for Two‐Photon Polymerization. Advanced Functional Materials, 30(50), Article 2006108. https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.202006108

It is reported that efficient photoinitiators, suitable for two‐photon polymerization, can be obtained using the copper catalyzed azide/alkyne cycloaddition reaction. This click chemistry strategy provides a modular approach to the assembly of photoi...

Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche (2018)
Preprint / Working Paper
Prina, E., Sidney, L., Tromayer, M., Moore, J., Liska, R., Bertolin, M., …Rose, F. R. Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche

Stem cells within epithelial tissues reside in anatomical structures known as crypts that are known to contribute to the mechanical and chemical milieu important for function. To date, epithelial stem cell therapies have largely ignored the niche and... Read More about Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche.

New renewably-sourced polyesters from limonene-derived monomers (2018)
Journal Article
Thomsett, M. R., Moore, J. C., Buchard, A., Stockman, R. A., & Howdle, S. M. (2019). New renewably-sourced polyesters from limonene-derived monomers. Green Chemistry, 21(1), 149-156. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8gc02957a

The functionalisation of limonene has enabled the synthesis of two renewably-sourced monomers for the formation of terpene-derived polyesters. Three methods for the synthesis of the novel hydroxy-acid 6 are reported and their green-credentials scruti... Read More about New renewably-sourced polyesters from limonene-derived monomers.

Asymmetric reduction of α, β-unsaturated ketone to (R) allylic alcohol by Candida chilensis (2006)
Journal Article
Pollard, D. J., Telari, K., Lane, J., Humphrey, G., McWilliams, C., Nidositko, S., …Moore, J. (2006). Asymmetric reduction of α, β-unsaturated ketone to (R) allylic alcohol by Candida chilensis. Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 93(4), 674-686. https://doi.org/10.1002/bit.20751

A pilot scale whole cell process was developed for the enantioselective 1,2‐reduction of prochiral α,β‐unsaturated ketone to (R) allylic alcohol using Candida chilensis. Initial development showed high enantiomeric excess (EE > 95%) but low product y... Read More about Asymmetric reduction of α, β-unsaturated ketone to (R) allylic alcohol by Candida chilensis.
