Journal Article
Chatterley, A., Horke, D., & Verlet, J. (2014). Effects of resonant excitation, pulse duration and intensity on photoelectron imaging of a dianion. Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 16(2), 489-496. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3cp53235f

The photoelectron imaging of the indigo carmine dianion is used to demonstrate the effects of resonance excitation, pulse duration and pulse intensity on the photoelectron spectra and angular distributions of a dianion. Excitation of the S1 state lea... Read More about Effects of resonant excitation, pulse duration and intensity on photoelectron imaging of a dianion.

Amine-functionalization of glycidyl methacrylate-containing emulsion-templated porous polymers and immobilization of proteinase K for biocatalysis (2014)
Journal Article

Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) emulsion-templated porous polymers (polyHIPEs) were prepared by thermal and photopolymerisation and derivatised with morpholine, tris(2-aminoethylamine) and a bisamino-PEG homobifunctional molecule. The extent of the funct... Read More about Amine-functionalization of glycidyl methacrylate-containing emulsion-templated porous polymers and immobilization of proteinase K for biocatalysis.

Enantiopure mono-cycloplatinated-[8]helicene and bis-cycloplatinated-[6]helicene derivatives were prepared through column chromatography combined with crystallization of diastereomeric complexes using a chiral ancillary sulfoxide ligand. The UV-visib... Read More about Straightforward access to mono- and biscycloplatinated helicenes displaying circularly polarized phosphorescence by using crystallization resolution methods.

Blending gelators to tune gel properties and probe anion-induced disassembly (2014)
Journal Article
Foster, J., Edkins, R., Cameron, G., Colgin, N., Fucke, K., Ridgeway, S., …Steed, J. (2014). Blending gelators to tune gel properties and probe anion-induced disassembly. Chemistry - A European Journal, 20(1), 279-291. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201303153

Blending different low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) provides a convenient route to tune the properties of a gel and incorporate functionalities such as fluorescence. Blending a series of gelators having a common bis-urea motif, and functionalise... Read More about Blending gelators to tune gel properties and probe anion-induced disassembly.

Reactions between cold methyl halide molecules and alkali-metal atoms (2014)

"Pure shift" 1H NMR, a robust method for revealing heteronuclear couplings in complex spectra (2014)
Journal Article
Aguilar, J. A., Morris, G. A., & Kenwright Alan, M. (2014). "Pure shift" 1H NMR, a robust method for revealing heteronuclear couplings in complex spectra. RSC Advances, 4(16), 8278-8282. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3ra46745g

We investigate the utility of “pure shift” techniques in revealing heteronuclear couplings in complex 1H NMR spectra. The results show the technique to be a robust and valuable complement to the standard 1H spectrum, and an attractive alternative to...
