Flavonoids, ubiquitous polyphenolic compounds in the human diet, are known for their potent antioxidant properties and capacity to bind metal ions. Their interaction with metal centres forms complexes ...

The field of metal complexes and redox activity has evolved substantially, offering novel insights into the interplay between transition metal centres and redox-active ligands. These complexes exhibit ...

Scientists are putting the pedal to the metal to develop new antibiotics. Metal-based drugs can open a new world of medicine, especially as antimicrobial resistance is growing. Researchers have also ...

Highly reducing or oxidizing photocatalysts are a fundamental challenge in photochemistry. Only a few transition metal complexes with Earth-abundant metal ions have so far advanced to excited state ...

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) acts as an important coenzyme that helps convert food into energy within the body. Korean researchers have successfully created a new artificial enzyme for the first time in ...

"This metal complex sets a new standard in photochemistry: it combines a record-breaking excited-state lifetime with simple synthesis," explained Professor Katja Heinze of the JGU Department of ...

In a world first, the team, led by Professor Stephen Liddle, discovered a new type of aromatic molecule made entirely of ...
