Amine catalysis for the organocatalytic diboration of challenging alkenes (2016)
Journal Article
Farre, A., Soares, K., Briggs, R. A., Balanta, A., Benoit, D. M., & Bonet, A. (2016). Amine catalysis for the organocatalytic diboration of challenging alkenes. Chemistry: a European journal, 22(49), 17552-17556. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201603979

© 2016 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim The generation of in situ sp 2 –sp 3 diboron adducts has revolutionised the synthesis of organoboranes. Organocatalytic diboration reactions have represented a milestone in terms of unpredictable re... Read More about Amine catalysis for the organocatalytic diboration of challenging alkenes.

Structurally optimised BODIPY derivatives for imaging of mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer and heart cells (2016)
Journal Article
Nigam, S., Burke, B. P., Davies, L. H., Domarkas, J., Wallis, J. F., Waddell, P. G., …Archibald, S. J. (2016). Structurally optimised BODIPY derivatives for imaging of mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer and heart cells. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, 52(44), 7114-7117. https://doi.org/10.1039/c5cc08325g

The structural features required for mitochondrial uptake of BODIPY-based optical imaging agents have been explored. The first derivatives of this class of dyes shown to have mitochondrial membrane potential-dependent uptake in both cancer and heart...

Adsorption of imidazole on Au(111) surface: Dispersion corrected density functional study (2016)
Journal Article
Izzaouihda, S., Mahjoubi, K., Abou El Makarim, H., Komiha, N., & Benoit, D. M. (2016). Adsorption of imidazole on Au(111) surface: Dispersion corrected density functional study. Applied Surface Science, 383, 233-239. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2016.04.144

We use density functional theory in the generalized gradient approximation to study the adsorption of imidazole on the Au(111) surface and account for dispersion effect using Grimme's empirical dispersion correction technique. Our results show that t... Read More about Adsorption of imidazole on Au(111) surface: Dispersion corrected density functional study.
