  • 65. Identifying the Roles of Amino Acids, Alcohols and 1,2-Diamines as Mediators in Coupling of Haloarenes to Arenes

    Coupling of haloarenes to arenes has been facilitated by a diverse range of organic additives in the presence of KOtBu or NaOtBu since the first report in 2008. Very recently, we showed that the reactivity of some of these additives (e.g. compounds 6 and 7 in Figure 1) could be explained by the formation of […]

  • 63. Solution processable diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) cored small molecules with BODIPY end groups as novel donors for organic solar cells

    Two novel triads based on a diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) central core and two 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) units attached by thiophene rings have been synthesised having high molar extinction coefficients. These triads were characterised and used as donor materials in small molecule, solution processable organic solar cells. Both triads were blended with PC71BM as an acceptor in different […]

  • 62. Discovery of Catalytic Phages by Biocatalytic Self-Assembly

    Discovery of new catalysts for demanding aqueous reactions is challenging. Here, we describe methodology for selection of catalytic phages by taking advantage of localized assembly of the product of the catalytic reaction that is screened for. A phage display library covering 109 unique dodecapeptide sequences is incubated with nonassembling precursors. Phages which are able to […]
