Influence of the hydrophile-lipophile balance of perfluorinated surfactants on the emulsion stability

Esther Amstad, Gaia De Angelis

Emulsions are omnipresent in our everyday life; for example, in food, certain drug and cosmetic formulations, agriculture, and as paints. Moreover, they are frequently used to perform high-throughput screening assays with minimum sample volumes. Key to the ...

Separable Brønsted acidic imidazolium salts for polysaccharide hydrolysis in water

Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

The current reliance on limited petrochemical resources and the resulting ecological outcomes have made the exploration of alternative chemical and energy feedstocks invaluable. As such, the development of sustainable processes with a less harmful total en ...

Ring-Opening Reactions of Aminocyclopropanes and Aminocyclobutanes

Mingming Wang

Nitrogen-containing compounds are an important class of molecules in medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, biochemistry, material sciences or environmental sciences. Organic nitrogen occurs in many forms, ranging from small building blocks such as urea, a ...

Oxidative Fluorination of Cyclopropylamides through Organic Photoredox Catalysis

Jérôme Waser, Mingming Wang

We report an oxidative ring-opening strategy to transform cyclopropylamides and cyclobutylamides into fluorinated imines. The imines can be isolated in their more stable hemiaminal form, with the fluorine atom installed selectively at the gamma or delta po ...

Structure-property relationships based on Hammett constants in cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes: their application to the design of a fluorine-free FIrPic-like emitter

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Rosario Scopelliti, Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Basile Curchod, Julien Edouard Frey

While phosphorescent cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes have been widely studied, only correlations between oxidation potential EOX and Hammett constant sigma, and between the redox gap (Delta E-REDOX = E-OX-E-RED) and emission or absorption wavelength ...

Hydrocarboxylation of Terminal Alkenes in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Gabor Laurenczy

The catalytic hydrocarboxylation of linear alkenes to carboxylic acids using supercritical carbon dioxide as a solvent was studied. High selectivities in acids have been obtained. The best results were achieved when adding a perfluorinated surfactant to th ...

Fluorinated β-Diketones for the Extraction of Lanthanide Ions: Photophysical Properties and Hydration Numbers of Their EuIII Complexes

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Frédéric Gumy

Tris(β-diketonato)europium(III) with a series of variably fluorinated ligands derived from 3,5-heptanedione were synthesised with the aim of determining their hydration state under extraction conditions. The number of coordinated water molecules was determ ...

Fate of volatile fluorinated compounds in the subsurface

Christian Balsiger

Since their discovery around 1930, the synthetic compounds of the class of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) have been produced and used worldwide at very large scale. Their physico-chemical properties (non-flammability, chemical inertia, miscibility with water a ...
