Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.The mechanism of pacifigorgiadiene synthase from Burkholderia gladioli was investigated through isotopic labeling experiments and DFT calculations. The results revealed an unexpected labeling pattern which appeared to be different in the main and the side products, requiring unprecedented mechanistic explanations, including a “break‐flip‐cyclise ...

Chain Versus Ring: Characterization of a Meta‐Phenylene Ladder Polymer and Its Octameric Macrocycle
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.The synthesis and comprehensive spectral and photophysical analysis of a methyl‐substituted ladder meta‐phenylene macrocycle (MeLMMP) and its polymer analogue (MeLPMP) show that, despite differing topologies (macrocycle vs. polymer), both display nearly identical electronic and photophysical properties due to cross‐conjugation.

Bifunctional Photocatalysts: Exploiting Proximity for Enhanced Reaction Performance
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.This review covers the application of the bifunctional approach to photocatalysis as a means to attain (enhanced) enantioselectivity, and, more in general, as a strategy to enhance the catalytic performance through an effective use of short‐lived reaction intermediates.
