Semiconducting polymer have the potential to be use in an exciting array of devices, but their intrinsic conductivity is low due to their large band gaps. Chemically doping conjugated polymers is an effective way to increase conductivity and involves introducing treating the polymer with a strong electron acceptor or donor that can undergo charge transfer […]

Abstract: Catalysis has become an indispensable, frequently applied tool for devising convergent, innovative, asymmetric and economical synthesis of APIs in the pharmaceutical industry. BI-Catalysis group, established in Ridgefield in 2008, contributed to the development of novel processes in many BI projects at all stages of research and development through close collaboration with all BI sites. […]

Abstract: Owing to its many distinct characteristics, electrochemistry represents an attractive approach to discovering new reactions and meeting the prevailing trends in organic synthesis. In particular, electrocatalysis—a process that integrates electrochemistry and small-molecule catalysis—has the potential to substantially improve the scope of synthetic electrochemistry and provide a wide range of useful transformations. Despite its attractive […]
