BO-assisted simultaneous multi-parameter screening for efficient flow
Our group started to study more advanced optimization techniques using machine learning to present a simpler, more practical, and rapid process for predicting the optimum reaction conditions that can be applied to several manufacturing environmentally sustainable processes.
Intramolecular charge-transfer enhances energy transfer efficiency in a carotenoid-reconstituted light-harvesting 1 complex of purple photosynthetic bacteria
In bacterial photosynthesis, the excitation energy transfer from carotenoids to bacteriochlorophyll a has a significant impact on the overall efficiency of the primary photosynthetic process. This efficiency can be enhanced when the involved carotenoid has intramolecular charge-transfer character.
Understanding the photogenerated hole traps in metal-organic-framework-based photocatalysts
We report a ternary MOF-based photocatalyst Pt@NH2-UiO-66/CdS with a spatially separated structure for the hole-trap transfer pathway in the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction processes.
Synthesis of Aryldifluoromethyl Aryl Ethers via Nickel-Catalyzed Suzuki Cross-Coupling Reactions
An efficient synthesis of aryldifluoromethyl aryl ethers was established via nickel-catalyzed aryloxydifluoromethylation. Using this protocol, difluoromethylated PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors were comveniently achieved with enhanced antitumor efficacy over the non-fluoro congeners.
