1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) is a polar, strongly hydrogen bond-donating
solvent that has found numerous uses in organic synthesis due to its ability to stabilize ionic …

Nanographenes, or extended polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, have been attracting
increasing attention owing to their widespread applications in organic electronics. However …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have surfaced as increasingly viable components
in optoelectronics and material sciences. The development of highly efficient and atom …

Rearrangements in Scholl reaction are mostly serendipitous. The design of molecular
precursors is what seems to guide the course of rearrangement. This review consolidates …

The optimization of electro-organic reactions poses a challenge due to the various
parameters involved. Quite often those parameters are not independent from each other …

We present a general electrochemical synthesis of sulfones from arenes and aniline
derivatives with sodium sulfinates. A wide range of C− S cross‐coupling products is …

Because of their unique structural and chemical properties, buckybowl molecules have
attracted considerable attention in a wide range of scientific disciplines. The importance and …

The preparation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by the Scholl reaction is
typically performed by using superstoichiometric oxidants. Herein, we develop an …

Active anodes which are operating in highly stable protic media such as 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-
hexafluoroisopropanol are rare. Nickel forms, within this unique solvent, a non-sacrificial …

The overall objective of this project is to synthesise and design unique new extended
aromatic structures assembling fundamental three-ring aromatic units (anthracenes) …
