Photochemistry beyond the red limit in chlorophyll f–containing photosystems
Lower-energy photons do the work, too Plants and cyanobacteria use chlorophyll-rich photosystem complexes to convert light energy into chemical energy. Some organisms have developed adaptations to take advantage of longer-wavelength photons.

Photochemistry of N-(selenoalkyl)-phthalimides. Formation of N, Se-heterocyclic systems [PDF]
A variety of N-(selenomethyl)alkyl-phthalimides (alkyl = -(CH2)n-; n = 2-5, 1a, b, d, e) and N-(selenobenzyl)propyl phthalimide (1c) were synthesized and their photochemistry was studied at λ = 300 nm.

Photochemistry in Terrestrial Exoplanet Atmospheres III: Photochemistry and Thermochemistry in Thick Atmospheres on Super Earths and Mini Neptunes [PDF]
Some super Earths and mini Neptunes will likely have thick atmospheres that are not H2-dominated. We have developed a photochemistry-thermochemistry kinetic-transport model for exploring the compositions of thick atmospheres on super Earths and mini ...

Hydroxylamine Derivatives as Nitrogen-Radical Precursors in Visible-Light Photochemistry.
In recent years, hydroxylamines derivatives have been exploited as nitrogen-radical precursors in visible-light photochemistry. Their ability to serve as electrophores in redox chemistry has propelled the development of many novel transformations ...

An Organic Acid-induced Synthesis and Characterization of Selenium Nanoparticles
A simple wet chemical method has been developed to synthesize selenium nanoparticles (size 40–100 nm), by the reaction of sodium selenosulphate precursor with different organic acids in aqueous medium, under ambient conditions. Polyvinyl alcohol has been

Mimicking the Oxygen-Evolving Center in Photosynthesis
The oxygen-evolving center (OEC) in photosystem II (PSII) of oxygenic photosynthetic organisms is a unique heterometallic-oxide Mn4CaO5-cluster that catalyzes water splitting into electrons, protons, and molecular oxygen through a five-state cycle (Sn, n
