Spin‐Orbit Photonics with Potato Starch Lenses
Native potato starch spherulites are introduced as volumetric optical elements that modulate both dynamic and geometric phases of light. These spherulites focus light and generate optical vortices via spin‐orbit interaction, functioning as polarization‐sensitive microlenses. Their unique radial anisotropy enables applications in vortex beam generation,

Abstract Glycosyl furans represent versatile chiral platform molecules that can be readily accessed via the Garcia Gonzalez reaction. Herein, we report a dearomative, intramolecular bromoetherification of carbohydrate‐derived glycosyl furans to generate enantiopure 6‐bromo‐furo[3,2‐b]furans in up to 69% yield. The method employs N‐Br aromatic amides as
