P-Doped Porous Carbon as Metal Free Catalysts for Selective Aerobic Oxidation with an Unexpected Mechanism.
Mehulkumar Patel,Feixiang Luo,M. Reza Khoshi,Emann Rabie,Qing Zhang,Carol R. Flach,Richard Mendelsohn,Eric Garfunkel,Michal Szostak,Huixin He +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the P-doped porous materials are promising materials for "green catalysis" due to their higher theoretical surface area, sustainability, environmental friendliness, and low cost.

Graphene-Catalyzed Direct Friedel-Crafts Alkylation Reactions: Mechanism, Selectivity, and Synthetic Utility.
Feng Hu,Mehulkumar Patel,Feixiang Luo,Carol R. Flach,Richard Mendelsohn,Eric Garfunkel,Huixin He,Michal Szostak +7 more
TL;DR: This work reports the first general strategy for alkylation of arenes with styrenes and alcohols catalyzed by carbon-based materials, exploiting the unique property of graphenes to produce valuable diarylalkane products in high yields and excellent regioselectivity.

Direct Production of Graphene Nanosheets for Near Infrared Photoacoustic Imaging.
Mehulkumar Patel,Hao Yang,Pui Lam Chiu,Daniel Mastrogiovanni,Carol R. Flach,Keerthi Savaram,Lesly Gomez,Ashley Hemnarine,Richard Mendelsohn,Eric Garfunkel,Huabei Jiang,Huixin He +11 more
TL;DR: By intentionally excluding KMnO4 and exploiting pure nitronium ion oxidation, aided by the unique thermal and kinetic effects induced by microwave heating, it is found that graphite particles can be converted into graphene nanosheets with their π-conjugated aromatic structures and properties largely retained.

Microwave Enabled One-Pot, One-Step Fabrication and Nitrogen Doping of Holey Graphene Oxide for Catalytic Applications.
Mehulkumar Patel,Wenchun Feng,Keerthi Savaram,M. Reza Khoshi,Ruiming Huang,Jing Sun,Emann Rabie,Carol R. Flach,Richard Mendelsohn,Eric Garfunkel,Huixin He +10 more
TL;DR: An unexpected discovery that GO with or without holes can be controllably, directly, and rapidly fabricated from graphite powder via a one-step-one-pot microwave assisted reaction with a production yield of 120 wt% of graphite is reported.

Phthalocyanine-loaded graphene nanoplatform for imaging-guided combinatorial phototherapy.
Olena Taratula,Mehulkumar Patel,Canan Schumann,Michael A. Naleway,Addison J. Pang,Huixin He,Oleh Taratula +6 more
TL;DR: The newly developed Pc-graphene nanoplatform has the significant potential as an effective NIR theranostic probe for imaging and combinatorial phototherapy, presumably conferring cytotoxicity to the synergistic effects of generated ROS and mild hyperthermia.
