Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery

Harm-Anton Klok, Nicola Carrara

The current use of fertilizers is inefficient and not sustainable. The majority of the fertilizer applied does not reach the targeted crop but is lost in the water bodies and into the atmosphere, with harmful impact on the environment. To enhance the effic ...

Photomediated aliphatic C-H functionalization

Jérôme Waser, Vu Trung Tin Nguyen

The C–H functionalization of inert alkanes has long been one of the most challenging reactions in organic synthesis. Now, the use of hypervalent iodine reagents has enabled the diverse functionalization of various aliphatic C–H bonds under blue light irrad ...

Enhanced abatement of phenolic compounds by chlorine in the presence of CuO: Absence of electrophilic aromatic substitution

Urs von Gunten

It has been demonstrated that chlorine predominately reacts with phenolic compounds through an electrophilic aromatic substitution, yielding chlorinated phenols. Previous studies showed that copper oxide (CuO), a water pipe corrosion product, can catalytic ...

Tandem catalysis enables chlorine-containing waste as chlorination reagents

Paul Joseph Dyson, Xinbang Wu, Mingyang Liu

Chlorinated compounds are ubiquitous. However, accumulation of chlorine-containing waste has a negative impact on human health and the environment due to the inapplicability of common disposal methods, such as landfill and incineration. Here we report a su ...

Controlling On-Surface Photoactivity: The Impact of π-Conjugation in Anhydride-Functionalized Molecules on a Semiconductor Surface

Christian Wäckerlin

On-surface synthesis has become a prominent method for growing low-dimensional carbon-based nanomaterials on metal surfaces. However, the necessity of decoupling organic nanostructures from metal substrates to exploit their properties requires either trans ...

Optically responsive dry cholesteric liquid crystal marbles

Ceren Kocaman

Dry liquid crystal marbles are structures that consist of cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) droplets prepared by the mixture of chiral-doped thermotropic LCs encapsulated by cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) that have been dried under ambient conditions. The ch ...
