Journal ArticleDOI
Green chemistry and the health implications of nanoparticles
TL;DR: N nanoparticles can enter the human body through the lungs, the intestinal tract, and to a lesser extent the skin, and are likely to be a health issue, although the extent of effects on health are inconclusive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification of C60 and C70 by selective complexation with calixarenes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that both C60 and C70 will form discrete complexes with calixarenes, bowl-shaped macrocycles with hydrophobic cavities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in solventless organic reactions: towards benign synthesis with remarkable versatility
TL;DR: A paradigm shift away from using solvents in organic synthesis as solventless reactions can lead to improved outcomes, and more benign synthetic procedures, in for example aldol condensation reactions and oligomerisation reactions for the synthesis of cavitands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding Solid/Solid Organic Reactions
TL;DR: The concept of an organic reaction between two macroscopic solid particles is investigated and it is clearly shown that, in most cases, grinding the two solid reactants together results in the formation of a liquid phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-step continuous-flow synthesis.
Joshua Britton,Colin L. Raston +1 more
TL;DR: Progresses in multi-step continuous-flow systems have improved the syntheses of active pharmaceutical ingredients, natural products, and commodity chemicals while highlighting the rapid progress, benefits, and diversification of this expanding field.
