Assignment of the vibrations of the S0, S1, and D+0 states of perhydrogenated and perdeuterated isotopologues of chlorobenzene (2015)
Journal Article

We report vibrationally resolved spectra of the S1 ? S0 transition of chlorobenzene using resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization spectroscopy. We study chlorobenzene-h5 as well as its perdeuterated isotopologue, chlorobenzene-d5. Changes in the fo...

van der Waals-induced chromatic shifts in hydrogen-bonded two-dimensional porphyrin arrays on boron nitride (2015)
Journal Article

The fluorescence of a two-dimensional supramolecular network of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxylphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) adsorbed on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is red shifted due to, primarily, adsorbate–substrate van der Waals interactions. TCPP is... Read More about van der Waals-induced chromatic shifts in hydrogen-bonded two-dimensional porphyrin arrays on boron nitride.

Diagenesis of phosphatic hardgrounds in the Monterey Formation: a perspective from bulk and clumped isotope geochemistry (2015)
Journal Article

Understanding the authigenesis of carbonate fluorapatite through isotopic geochemistry can yield important information on fundamental geologic processes occurring on continental margins around the world. This is particularly true for phosphatic hardg... Read More about Diagenesis of phosphatic hardgrounds in the Monterey Formation: a perspective from bulk and clumped isotope geochemistry.

One-pot Cannizzaro cascade synthesis of ortho-Fused Cycloocta-2,5-dien-1-ones from 2-Bromo(hetero)aryl aldehydes (2015)
Journal Article

An intramolecular Cannizzaro-type hydride transfer to an in situ prepared allene enables the synthesis of orthofused 4-substituted cycloocta-2,5-dien-1-ones with unprecedented technical ease for an eight-ring carboannulation. Various derivatives coul... Read More about One-pot Cannizzaro cascade synthesis of ortho-Fused Cycloocta-2,5-dien-1-ones from 2-Bromo(hetero)aryl aldehydes.

Comparison of rhenium–porphyrin dyads for CO₂ photoreduction: photocatalytic studies and charge separation dynamics studied by time-resolved IR spectroscopy (2015)
Journal Article

We report a study of the photocatalytic reduction of CO₂ to CO by zinc porphyrins covalently linked to [ReI(2,2′-bipyridine)(CO)₃L]⁺/⁰ moieties with visible light of wavelength >520 nm. Dyad 1 contains an amide C₆H₄NHC(O) link from porphyrin to bipyr...

The transcriptome of Euglena gracilis reveals unexpected metabolic capabilities for carbohydrate and natural product biochemistry (2015)
Journal Article

Euglena gracilis is a highly complex alga belonging to the green plant line that shows characteristics of both plants and animals, while in evolutionary terms it is most closely related to the protozoan parasites Trypanosoma and Leishmania. This well... Read More about The transcriptome of Euglena gracilis reveals unexpected metabolic capabilities for carbohydrate and natural product biochemistry.

Hygrothermal simulation-informed design of mesoporous desiccants for optimised energy efficiency of mixed mode air conditioning systems (2015)
Journal Article

© The Royal Society of Chemistry. This paper describes an optimization technique using hygrothermal numerical modelling to determine an ideal and unknown isotherm in order to inform the design of optimised mesoporous desiccants. Their suitability for... Read More about Hygrothermal simulation-informed design of mesoporous desiccants for optimised energy efficiency of mixed mode air conditioning systems.

Facile access to a heterocyclic, sp3-rich chemical scaffold via a tandem condensation/intramolecular nitrone–alkene [3+2] cycloaddition strategy (2015)
Journal Article

A heterocyclic, sp3-rich chemical scaffold was synthesised in just 6 steps via a highly regio- and diastereo-selective tandem nitrone formation/intramolecular nitrone–alkene [3+2] cycloaddition reaction. A library of 543 lead-like compounds based on...

A miniaturized electrochemical assay for homocysteine using screen-printed electrodes with cytochrome c anchored gold nanoparticles (2015)
Journal Article

Determination of homocysteine (HcySH) is highly beneficial in human physiology and pathophysiology for diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Unfortunately, the practicability of the existing methodologies for the determination of...
