Aggregates of radicals that form intermolecular hydrogen bonds can accelerate catalysis

How Do Organic Radicals Aggregate in Polar Fluorocarbon Solvents?

First Total Synthesis of Pepluacetal
Route relying on a Wolff rearrangement/lactonization cascade, a ring-closing metathesis/cyclopropanation sequence, and a late-stage transannular carbenoid insertion

Behind the Science: Singlet Fission in a New Series of Tetracene Oligomers
Novel molecular system with a hexaphenylbenzene core and multiple tetracene chromophores arranged to dictate through-space coupling, addressing low singlet fission efficiencies in tetracene dimers

Synthesis and Characterization of Coumarin-Fused Triskelion-Shaped Scaffolds
Benzocoumarin-fused triskelions show Aggregation-Induced Emission Enhancement (AIEE) due to the suppressed molecular inversion process

Decarboxylative Sulfonylation of Carboxylic Acids
Photoinduced iron-catalyzed reaction for the synthesis of sulfones
