RAD51 and RAD51 paralog inhibition sensitizes nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to UV radiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UV radiation and other compounds generate DNA adducts that block transcription and induce cell death if not removed by the nucleotide excision repair system. In this work, we used a small‐scale pharmacological screen to discover that inhibition of the recombinase RAD51 sensitized nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to both UVR and other agents that ...

Mechanochemistry of cyclobutanes

Science China Chemistry
AbstractThe field of polymer mechanochemistry has been revolutionized by implementing force-responsive functional groups—mechanophores. The rational design of mechanophores enables the controlled use of force to achieve constructive molecular reactivity and material responses.

Reenvisioning the De Mayo Reaction: A Boron‐Enabled Cycloaddition Approach

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 29, 13 July 2026.
An oxa‐boracycle conformational lock strategy enables photocatalytic [2+2] cycloaddition to afford densely substituted cyclobutylboronates. The conformational constraint suppresses triplet relaxation and promotes productive bimolecular reactivity.

Photoprotective potential of gadusol against ultraviolet B radiation in melanocytes

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Gadusol protects melanocytes from ultraviolet B (UVB)‐induced damage without cytotoxicity. Abstract The increasing incidence of skin cancer, including melanoma, combined with the need for ultraviolet (UV) filters that are safe for human health and marine ecosystems, is driving the search for new photoprotective agents.

Depth of DNA photodamage in human corneas exposed to 222 nm or 254 nm UV

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Representative confocal 3D image of a section of a human cornea showing nuclei in blue (Hoechst 33342) and green, which was assigned to cells exhibiting Alexa555 conjugated to anti‐CPD antibody. The depth of photodamage was measured in Z‐stacks of the human corneal epithelium after exposure of the anterior surface to 50 or 100 mJ/cm2 at 222 or 254 nm ...

Development of chalcones structure‐related to avobenzone: Photoprotection, photostability, and safety evaluation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Scaffold hopping strategy used to develop chalcones structure‐related to the avobenzone tautomer. Positive aspects of 2‐hydroxychalcones are highlighted. Abstract Chalcones are α,β‐unsaturated ketones with extended π‐conjugation, making them promising scaffolds for the development of organic UV filters.

A Physical Organic Odyssey: From the Ultrafast Dynamics of Carbenes and Nitrenes to Contemporary Chemical Biology and Drug Discovery

Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry, Volume 39, Issue 9, September 2026.
Physical organic chemistry transforms photoaffinity labeling from empirical photochemistry into rational probe design. By measuring reactive‐intermediate lifetimes, pathways, and selectivity, Platz's legacy connects carbene and nitrene mechanisms to modern chemoproteomics, enabling more precise protein labeling and drug‐discovery maps.

Acyclic Hydrocarbon α,ω‐Dienes: From Biomass and Plastic Upcycling to Carbocycles, Precision Polymers, and Cross‐Linked Elastomers

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 14, 29 July 2026.
Hydrocarbon α,ω‐dienes are mainly produced from steam‐cracking derivatives, but high costs, complexity, and environmental impact limit their use. This review highlights sustainable paths from biomass and plastic upcycling, and surveys catalytic transformations into carbocycles and specialty polymers, emphasizing their role as modular building blocks ...

The concept of Gallium-controlled double C–H functionalization of aliphatic CH2-groups driven by Vinyl carbocations

Nature Communications
The direct C–H activation of inert C(sp3)–H bonds in a hydrocarbon chain has been a very attractive target in organic synthesis for many decades. Among all the variety of processes, those driven by vinyl carbocations are quite scarce thus far, and it is ...
