Enoate reductases from the family of old yellow enzymes (OYEs) can catalyze stereoselective trans-hydrogenation of activated C=C bonds. Their application is limited by the necessity for a continuous supply of redox equivalents such as nicotinamide cofactors [NAD(P)H]. Visible light-driven activation of OYEs through NAD(P)H-free, direct transfer of photoexcited electrons from xanthene dyes to th...

Before presenting the details of the principle of mathematical induction let’s understand the situations to which it applies. We’ve seen that to prove a universal assertion, we start by setting up the scenario that represents the hypothesis of the assertion. This scenario involves certain hypothetical objects, and certain assumptions. We then use the information of the scenario to work towards ...

The effect of xanthene dyes on the chemiluminescence from the aerobic indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) oxidation, catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase (HRP), was studied. The rate of IAA oxidation and dye destruction were controlled. It was found that the addition of dyes to the IAA/HRP/O2 system resulted in: (i) the appearance of emission in the region of dye fluorescence, (ii) an increase of the tot...

A simple and ecofriendly method was developed for the synthesis of arylmethylene[bis(5,5- dimethyl-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-ones)] from the reaction of 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane- 1,3-dione and aromatic aldehydes in an aqueous media without any catalyst via Knoevenagel condensation followed by rapid Michael addition. No cyclization product was down to convert these enolic forms to xanthene deriva...

Two sensing molecules, A-T1 and A-T2 with bichromophore structures, were synthesized by linking different numbers of TPE units to a xanthene platform (ABPX).

Herein, we report the use of spiro-configured fluorene-xanthene scaffolds as a novel, promising, and effective strategy in thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitter design to attain high photoluminescence quantum yields (ΦPL), short luminescence lifetime, external efficiency (EQE), minimum roll-off characteristics organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The optoelectronic electrolu...
