This month, we look at purple and red LEDs and everything in between. The world is full of color so why is everyone so blue?
Scientific Literature
Catching up with the Lucent360™
At midyear 2024: we feature 3 papers, highlighting key uses for the Lucent360™: Reaction method development, Scale up in batch, and Photochemistry in flow.
Photocatalytic Radiolabeling with 18F in Flow
Flow photochemistry in the PhotoRedOx Box™ is Hot as F! This month, we feature novel photoredox induced fluorination for radiolabeling a wide range of pharmaceutically relevant small molecules.
2023 Photochemistry Year in Review
Here is our list of the 23 photochemistry papers that we thought were the best funniest oddest most interesting or downright unexpected of 2023.
Photocatalytic Antimicrobials
No one wants to think about all the nasty microorganisms floating around out there. Learn how researchers are getting rid of them with Photocatalytic Antimicrobials.
Searching for the origin of life with a 365nm LED (with Photoredox Organocatalysis)
Mmm… What’s in the Soup? How did life begin? Were the first catalysts, photocatalysts? Read about the recent account by Oliver Trapp and coworkers on their work at prebiotic photoredox organocatalysis.
Hot for HAT and HAT for HOT (labels): Photochemical methods for isotopic labeling
Photochemical methods for isotopic labeling connect two favorite interests: drug metabolism and photochemistry. Isotope labeled drugs are critical in ADME studies, imaging, and radiolabeled ligand binding studies…
Summer Beach Reads
Here is a midyear recap of photochemistry papers that we thought were the best, funniest, oddest, most interesting, or downright unexpected so far this year.
Shining a Light on DNA Sequencing
This month we highlight recent work of several students from the Balasubramanian Lab at the University of Cambridge using EvoluChem Photoredox Boxes in their graduate studies.
