Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: RESOLV members Prof. V. Gessner and Prof. L. Gooßen's demonstrates that the coupling of aryl chlorides with Reformatsky reagents is a desirable strategy for the construction of α-aryl esters by overcoming the limitations by the tailoring of ylide-functionalized phosphines to fit the requirements of Negishi couplings.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: RESOLV member Prof. V. Gessner reports the results of her investigations on how solvent selection affects the structure, stability, and breakdown of alkali metal carbenoids. This study examines the effects of solvent coordination and aggregation on carbenoid behavior and finds that toluene causes aggregation and quicker breakdown, whereas THF stabilizes lithium carbenoids as…

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: Photosynthetic proteins can convert light energy into other forms of energy. Researchers want to make this technology usable for the industrial production of fuels, for example.

Angew. Chem.: Analyzing nanoparticles individually is a challenge precisely because they are so small. A new technique using electron microscopy and a robotic arm could make the process much easier.

PNAS: An international research team has investigated water molecules in a tiny cage – and discovered previously unknown properties.

JACS: RESOLV member Prof. L. Schäfer showed how high-performance computers allow us to uncover details about the transport of molecules through cell membranes.

Nat. Comm.: Luminous carbon nanotubes detect pathogens – and are quick and easy to use.

Angew. Chem.: Nowadays, it is easy to determine an average pH for larger quantities of liquid. It is a challenge, however, to define a local pH value

ACS Cat: How supercritical carbon dioxide influences the electrochemical reduction of CO2

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: RESOLV PI Prof. G. Clever and RESOLV member Prof. M. Kasanmascheff developed a precise method to measure distances in DNA G-quadruplexes, advancing drug design by revealing how candidate molecules bind to these biologically important structures
