Choose Your Own Adventure (with photoinduced cross-coupling)
At first we decided to summarize the Ni cross-coupling photocatalysis literature in a short review—But we quickly realized that’s a terrible idea. Instead, we took on the much more enjoyable task and screen this chemistry with the Lucent360.
Lucent360 Customized Reaction Screenings
Learn how to streamline with Lucent360 customized reaction screenings and save on time & setups when matching optimal wavelength to a photocatalyst.
Comparing Commercial Photoreactors
How should we compare commercial photoreactors? Or better yet, how do we discuss the important details of a photochemical reaction?
Utilizing the Lucent360 From Screen to Scale
Read on for a step by step study taking a photocatalyzed-Arbuzov reaction from screen to scale utilizing the unique features of the Lucent360™
Introducing the Lucent360
The Lucent360’s flexible design gives you the best options to learn everything you need to know to take your photochemical reactions from screen to scale.
Photochemistry of earth-abundant metals
A recurring theme in our recent articles: there isn’t enough iridium or ruthenium in the earth’s crust to do all the photochemistry we’d like to do at scale.
The Attack of the Photocatalytic Microrobots!
Self-propelled autonomous microrobots that can swim through mazes to seek and destroy microplastics? Read on…
Using Multiphoton Excitation To Generate Potent Photooxidants
Our review of a recent Wickens paper describing the formation of powerful new photooxidants through a mechanism of multiphoton excitation.
Potpourri Catalysis – Fascinating Photoredox Chemistry With Organic Dyes
Add dried flower petals to your photochemistry reaction? This group did. Their paper on photoredox chemistry with organic dyes is brilliant.
The 20 Must Read Photochemistry Papers from 2020
Many of these papers move the field farther into unimaginable areas, while others find photochemical replacements for traditional reactions solving an unmet need.
