Exploiting Dispersion-driven Aggregators as a Route to New One-dimensional Organic Nanowires

Riccardo Petraglia, Adrien Georges Nicolai, Hongguang Liu

The efficiency of charge carrier mobility in organic semiconductors is heavily dependent upon the long-range organization (i.e., morphology) and the local relative arrangement of the transporting molecules. Here, we exploit London dispersion forces as a de ...

The knowns and unknowns of the physiology and biochemistry of organohalide respiration

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard

Although a multitude of halogenated compounds are naturally produced, interest in biodegradation of these often toxic compounds has mainly been driven by anthropogenic contamination of soils and aquifers with huge amounts of chlorinated solvents (tetra- an ...

Functional diversity of reductive dehalogenases in a bacterial consortium degrading chloroethenes

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Géraldine Florence Buttet, Sébastien Keller

Chlorinated hydrocarbon pollution threatens nature and human health due to its toxic and carcinogenic potential. Enrichment cultures were investigated for the bioremediation potential of tetrachloroethene (PCE). This process is based on bacterial anaerobic ...

A Fast and Selective Near-Infrared Fluorescent Sensor for Multicolor Imaging of Biological Nitroxyl (HNO)

Pablo Rivera Fuentes

The first near-IR fluorescent turn-on sensor for the detection of nitroxyl (HNO), the one-electron reduced form of nitric oxide (NO), is reported. The new copper-based probe, CuDHX1, contains a dihydroxanthene (DHX) fluorophore and a cyclam deriv. as a Cu( ...

Redox chemistry and metal–insulator transitions intertwined in a nano-porous material

Berend Smit

Metal-organic frameworks are nano-porous adsorbents of relevance to gas separation and catalysis, and separation of oxygen from air is essential to diverse industrial applications. The ferrous salt of 2,5-dihydroxy-terephthalic acid, a metal-organic framew ...

Exploitation of Rh(I)-Rh(III) cycles in enantioselective C-C bond cleavages: access to beta-tetralones and benzobicyclo[2.2.2]octanones

Nicolai Cramer, Laetitia Marie Mélanie Souillart

Rhodium(I)-catalyzed beta-carbon eliminations of tert-cyclobutanols followed by oxidative addition give benzorhoda(III)cyclopentenes. These key intermediates trigger intramolecular C-H arylations leading to beta-tetralones with quaternary stereogenic cente ...

New tool for studying the biosynthetic role of glucose in brain at the nanometer scale

Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Arnaud Comment, Yuhei Takado, Mojgan Masoodi

Background: The brain consumes a considerable amount of glucose relative to its size. Brain glucose is a source of energy, mainly via oxidative phosphorylation, as well as a source of building blocks for synthesising macromolecules. Little is known about t ...

Phosphorylation of Diaminopyridines: Synthesis of a Compound Containing Both a Diphosphinoamine ( P-N-P) and an Iminobiphosphine ( N=P-P) Fragment

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Zhaofu Fei, Wee Han Ang, Emilia Paunescu

The phosphorylation of a series of diaminopyridines (2,3-, 3,4-, 2,5- and 2,6-diaminopyridine), with various molecular equivalents of chlorodiphenylphosphine in the presence of TEA has been studied. Notably, phosphorylation of 2,3- and 3,4-diaminopyridine ...
