Covalent organic-inorganic polyoxometalate hybrids in catalysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a class of compounds known for the vast range of tunable structures and properties available, leading to applications in areas such as catalysis, energy, and advanced medicine. The ability to ... -
Phase transfer catalysts shift the pathway to transmetalation in biphasic Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The Suzuki-Miyaura coupling is a widely used C-C bond forming reaction. Numerous mechanistic studies have enabled the use of low catalyst loadings and broad functional group tolerance. However, the dominant mode of ... -
Dynamic sampling in autonomous process optimization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Autonomous process optimization (APO) is a technology that has recently found utility in a multitude of process optimization challenges. In contrast to most APO examples in microflow reactor systems, we recently presented ... -
Superhydrophobic cellulose-nanofiber aerogels from waste cotton stalks for superior oil–water and emulsion separation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Cellulose aerogel, a sustainable material characterized by low density and high porosity, demonstrates promising potential for addressing oil spill incidents. In this study, waste cotton stalk biomass was processed using ... -
A teaching module in research integrity and ethics for university students based on the IUPAC living-code approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Through history, the relationship between science and society has changed, and today, science is almost totally integrated and an essential pillar in society. This development has changed the framework for scientific ... -
Abstraction of Trifluoroborane from Tetrafluoroborate: Li$^+$-Assisted Borylation of Nucleophilic Carbenes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The small, lipophilic tetrafluoroborate anion is ubiquitous in the imidazol(in)ium and iminium precursors to N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), including cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbenes (CAACs). Its symmetrical distribution of ... -
Implications of confounding from unmodeled interactions between explanatory variables when using latent variable regression models to make inferences
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)With linear dependency between the explanatory variables, partial least squares (PLS) regression is commonly used for regression analysis. If the response variable correlates to a high degree with the explanatory variables, ... -
Pursuing E-Selective Olefin Metathesis: Tuning Steric and Electronic Properties of S,N-Chelated Ruthenium Alkylidenes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Selective formation of E-olefins directly from 1-alkenes is still an unsolved problem more than 10 years after the first Z-selective metathesis catalysts were reported. Illustrating the challenge, the sulfidoindolide-based ... -
Investigating the Origin of Epimerization Attenuation during Pd-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings remain among the most robust methodologies to form carbon–carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. In particular, carbon–nitrogen (C–N) couplings (Buchwald–Hartwig aminations) find widespread ... -
Synthesis and stability of the [$^{45}$Ti]Ti-DOTA complex: en route towards aza-macrocyclic $^{45}$Ti-based radiopharmaceuticals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)We report the use of DOTA as a chelator for titanium. The resulting complex is fully characterised and in vitro stability studies reveal its high kinetic inertness against transmetallation and transchelation. The radiolabeling ... -
Development of a green scalable route toward the synthesis of bio-based 2-pyrones
