Catalytic asymmetric radical aminoperfluoroalkylation and aminodifluoromethylation of alkenes to versatile enantioenriched-fluoroalkyl amines
TL;DR: Broad substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance and versatile functionalization of the products make this approach very practical and attractive.

TL;DR: The quadrangle-shaped co-crystal constitutes a unique material that exhibits two-photon absorption and near-infrared emission simultaneously and holds considerable promise for the future design and synthesis of more advanced optical materials.
Symmetry-Breaking Charge Separation in the Solid State: Tetra(phenoxy)perylenediimide Polycrystalline Films.
Carolyn E. Ramirez,Su Chen,Natalia E. Powers-Riggs,Itai Schlesinger,Ryan M. Young,Michael R. Wasielewski +5 more
TL;DR: Investigation of generation of electron-hole pairs via symmetry-breaking charge separation in photoexcited assemblies of organic chromophores in polycrystalline thin films shows that octyl-tpPDI exhibits strong mixing between its singlet excited state and a charge transfer state, yielding an excimer-like state, making the latter a promising candidate for use in organic photovoltaic devices.

Amino- and azidotrifluoromethylation of alkenes
TL;DR: In this paper, a recent breakthrough on the copper-catalyzed asymmetric aminotrifluoromethylation reaction was reported, which was the first step in the development of a catalyzed version of the reaction.

Exploring Photogenerated Molecular Quartet States as Spin Qubits and Qudits.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated a molecular spin system composed of a 1,6,7,12-tetra(4-tert-butylphenoxy)perylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (PDI) chromophore covalently linked to a stable nitroxide radical (TEMPO) by optical and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) techniques.
