Opt. Mater. Express: RESOLV member Prof. C. Saraceno's review discusses the challenging combination of high repetition rates and high average power simultaneously, focusing on intense ultra-broadband high repetition rate terahertz sources based on organic crystals

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. : With RESOLV support, Prof. M. Hansmann and his team identified the strongest neutral nucleophiles to date—mesoionic olefins—topping the Mayr scale and opening new paths in catalysis

Water is a major driving force in the formation of separate reaction compartments within cells.

ChemSusChem: RESOLV PI, Prof. K. Tschulik, showed how aqueous electrolytes, aldehydes exist in three forms: The non-hydrated aldehyde, the diol, and the diolate. This studi highlights that all three species exhibit electroactivity. Hence, it is possible to formulate approaches for addressing the OH−-induced decomposition of aldehydes during the electrochemical oxidation of aldehydes.

Nat. Commun.: RESOLV PI's, Prof. K. Morgenstern, Prof. W. Sander and Prof. E. Sanchez-Garcia, in collaborative cooperation, show how to alter the chirality dynamics of a single molecule through tip-induced van der Waals interactions.

J. Am. Chem. Soc: The new sensor design resembles a molecular toolbox that can be used to quickly assemble sensors for a variety of purposes.

J. Org. Chem.: Two structurally related isomeric benzazirines show very different tunneling behaviors which demonstrate the influence of position isomerism on quantum tunneling rates.

J. Am. Chem. Soc.: A novel surface-confined C–C coupling reaction studied by scanning tunneling microscopy in real space. Two carbene molecules and a water molecule generate Carbene fluorenylidene on a silver surface. 3 RESOLV groups pooled their expertise to find this coupling reaction, which is unprecedented in solution chemistry.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are used as fluorescent probes/sensors for biomolecules in the near infrared (NIR) tissue transparency window.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: A proof of concept for a salt waste free carboxylation of acetylene using a pH-switch triggered by CO2 pressure. This enables the production of C4-platform chemicals like dimethyl succinate from biogas and hydrogen. The correct choice of solvent is shown to play an critical role.
