The chemistry of porphycenes has evolved into a dynamic field that bridges coordination chemistry and proton transfer mechanisms. Unique among macrocycles, porphycenes are structural isomers of ...

Chemists have mapped how proton-coupled electron transfers happen at the surface of an electrode. Their results could help researchers design more efficient fuel cells, batteries, or other energy ...

Chemists reveal method for differentiating PCET mechanisms -- a key step for steering fundamental energy conversion and redox catalysis processes. Redox reactions form the basis of many fundamental ...

Recently, the team led by Academician Wei-Hong Zhu at East China University of Science and Technology proposed a novel photo-rearrangement reaction of diarylethenes induced by intramolecular proton ...
