Journal Article
Gimenez, D., Aguilar, J., Bromley, E., & Cobb, S. (2018). Stabilising Peptoid Helices Using Non‐Chiral Fluoroalkyl Monomers. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 57(33), 10549-10553. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201804488

Stability towards protease degradation combined with modular synthesis has made peptoids of considerable interest in the fields of chemical biology, medicine, and biomaterials. Given their tertiary amide backbone, peptoids lack the capacity to hydrog... Read More about Stabilising Peptoid Helices Using Non‐Chiral Fluoroalkyl Monomers.

Excited-State Aromatic Interactions in the Aggregation-Induced Emission of Molecular Rotors (2017)
Journal Article

Small, apolar aromatic groups, such as phenyl rings, are commonly included in the structures of fluorophores in order to impart hindered intramolecular rotations, leading to desirable solid-state luminescence properties. However, they are not normall... Read More about Excited-State Aromatic Interactions in the Aggregation-Induced Emission of Molecular Rotors.
