Our review article about "Photon upconversion sensitized by earth-abundant transition metal complexes", is now online! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Just out in Angewandte Chemie: a thorough look at an isolated acridinyl radical and its conPET-type photochem., with an emphasis on understanding how SET takes place. (Dynamic quenching? Preassembly? Solvated electrons?) Thanks to collaborators RCNS TheoChem Group! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

The next masterpiece from Matthias focusing on Coulombic dyads as new #photocatalyst class has been accepted in Angewandte Chemie. Higher quantum yields in red-light catalysis by adding an inexpensive salt to use #Os as efficiently as possible. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an… Heinze_Lab

Our work with the great Alejandro Cadranel and his team was just published in ACIE! Noémie also enjoyed a two months stay at Erlangen to get hands on experience! F.R.S.-FNRS (DfG Weave project) WEL Research Institute

Our in-depth study about how to avoid dissipation in solar-energy conversion using molecular chromophores is a HOT🔥paper Angewandte Chemie Solar@FAU FAU Erlangen-Nbg In collab with fantastic Ludo Troian-Gautier & team under European WEAVE program

ASAP in Inorganic Chemistry, Matthew increased the lifetime of [Fe(bpy)3]2+ by a factor of 20 by adding extra rings. Do you know why it worked? Check it out: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Now in the special issue on Physical Organic Chemistry of J Org Chem/Org Lett. We explore which factors determine whether a certain heteroaromatic compound has its first excited states (T1 & S1) of npi* or pipi* character, and identify six factors. More to follow! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congrats to Kirill Kuznetsov for his article just accepted in Chemical Science on the (photo-)cytotoxicity of some photocages, which were found to be far from being inert carriers. Wonderful collaboration with Art Winter CARIOU Kevin Chimie ParisTech | PSL doi.org/10.1039/D5SC04…

Photoswitchable drugs offer immense #photopharmacological oportunities since the two isomers can have different pharmacological profiles. One challenge is that the #photoswitches need UV or blue light to be modulated. UV and blue light has very low penetration depth in the body

Simultaneous irradiation with two wavelengths causes the formation of a new photostationary state! Congrats to Ranit, Fjoralba and the whole team! ACS Catalysis Alternative Mechanism of Enzymatic Photocontrol by Azobenzene | ACS Catalysis pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We show how photoredox catalysis can bypass Kasha’s rule, enabling reactions from higher excited states. This work, led by the exceptional Björn Pfund, offers new insights into photochemical reactivity. Published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.: bit.ly/3IysmjX

Thrilled to share our new JACS paper on anti-Kasha photoreactivity! We show that higher-lying excited states can drive electron transfer — opening new doors for photoredox catalysis. Huge thanks to Oliver Wenger for the incredible mentorship! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
