Pulsing light in a photocatalysis reaction is like flipping on the strobe lights at a party—but can it shift the vibe enough to change outcomes? Inspired by a recent study, this month we take you for a spin on this experimental dance floor.

At midyear 2024: we feature 3 papers, highlighting key uses for the Lucent360™: Reaction method development, Scale up in batch, and Photochemistry in flow.

A metal-free, metal-catalyzed reaction? Confused? Sounds like a contradiction? Chemistry is rife with examples of trace metal impurities playing an unwelcome (or occasionally key) role in transition metal catalysis.

Here is our list of the 23 photochemistry papers that we thought were the best funniest oddest most interesting or downright unexpected of 2023.
