We are huge fans of what could be classified as “creative photocatalysts”. One of our favorite papers over the past few years was this work that we wrote about here using Hypericum flowers as an organic dye for C-C bond formation. A few dried flower petals, a base and an LED and you have a new photochemical reaction. So, if your paper can be described as using a “Fenton Boat photocatalyst”, well..

This month, we highlight the recent work of several students from the Balasubramanian Lab at the University of Cambridge using the EvoluChem™ Photoredox Boxes in their graduate studies. Shankar Balasubramanian is a godfather in the field of nucleic acid chemistry and methods to sequence epigenetic modifications. In recent years this work has involved visible-light applications.
