A hitherto unknown class of C4-symmetric Caryl Cβ (C3, C8, C13, C18) axially chiral porphyrins has been synthesized and the application of their iridium (Ir) complexes in catalytic asymmetric C(sp3) H functionalization is documented. Cyclotetramerization o ...
The computational analysis of isomer- and conformer- dependent photochemistry of 1- and 2-naphthols and their microsolvated water clusters is motivated by their very different excited state reactivity. We present evidence that 1- and 2-naphthol follow dist ...
The control of molecular systems by electrical charge or light is a prerequisite for their application in nanoelectronics. Such potential has been uniquely exploited in quinone-based resorcin[4]arene cavitands that can act as molecular grippers, reversibly ...
The continuous progress in medicinal chemistry requires more versatile synthetic strategies for the generation of large libraries of active compounds and their analogues. As a result, the research for new effective cyclization and cycloaddition reactions i ...
The increasing progress in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology requires more versatile synthetic strategies for the generation of libraries of active compounds and theirs analogues. A wide range of biologically active natural and synthetic compounds c ...
Sulphonated anthraquinones are precursors of many synthetic dyes and pigments, recalcitrant to biodegradation, and thus contaminating many industrial effluents and rivers. In the development of a phytotreatment to remove sulphonated aromatic compounds, rhu ...
Because plants are static and live in a competitive and sometimes hostile environment, they have evolved efficient mechanisms that protect them from abiotic and biotic stresses. These mechanisms include detoxification and sequestration of xenobiotic compou ...
Norrish-type-II reaction on a semiquinone radical: Stable semiquinone radicals serve as novel molecular platforms on which a Norrish-type-II photoreaction can be initiated. A detailed reaction scheme involving a 1,5-hydrogen transfer followed by a cyclizat ...
We have carried out theor. investigation aiming at modeling the assessment of mechanisms of photoinduced processes in a recent p-type org. metal-free dye derived from the triphenylamine (P-1) structure. In the P-1 system, one uses the triphenylamine moiety ...
Phenolic compounds are known structural moieties of natural organic matter (NOM), and their reactivity is a key parameter for understanding the reactivity of NOM and the disinfection by-product formation during oxidative water treatment. In this study, spe ...
