Structural and electronic studies of substituted m-terphenyl lithium complexes (2020)
Journal Article

The effect of para-substitution upon the structural and electronic properties of a series of m-terphenyl lithium complexes [R-Ar#-Li]2 (R = t-Bu 1, SiMe32, H 3, Cl 4, CF35; where R-Ar# = 2,6-{2,6-Xyl}2-4-R-C6H2 and 2,6-Xyl = 2,6-Me2C6H3) has been inv...

Porous Metal–Organic Polyhedra: Morphology, Porosity, and Guest Binding (2020)
Journal Article

Designing porous materials which can selectively adsorb CO2 or CH4 is an important environmental and industrial goal which requires an understanding of the host-guest interactions involved at the atomic scale. Metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) showing p... Read More about Porous Metal–Organic Polyhedra: Morphology, Porosity, and Guest Binding.

Synthesis, characterization and density functional theory of copper (ii) complex and cobalt (ii) coordination polymer for detection of nitroaromatic explosives (2020)
Journal Article

In recent years there has been a significant interest to design luminescent materials to detect explosives with a great degree of selectivity, sensitivity, and fast response time. Two new luminescent compounds, [Cu(Biphen)(Meim)(H2O)] 1 and [Co(BDC)(...

Sustainable sorbitol-derived compounds for gelation of the full range of ethanol–water mixtures (2020)
Journal Article

During the development of soft material systems inspired by green chemistry, we show that naturally occurring starting materials can be used to prepare mono- and di-benzylidene sorbitol derivatives. These compounds gelate a range of organic, aqueous... Read More about Sustainable sorbitol-derived compounds for gelation of the full range of ethanol–water mixtures.

General Method for the Asymmetric Synthesis of N–H Sulfoximines via C–S Bond Formation (2020)
Journal Article

A versatile method for the synthesis of enantioenriched N–H sulfoximines is reported. The approach stems from the organomagnesium-mediated ring opening of novel cyclic sulfonimidate templates. The reactions proceed in high yield and with excellent st... Read More about General Method for the Asymmetric Synthesis of N–H Sulfoximines via C–S Bond Formation.
