Effect of the Aerosol-Phase State on Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation from the Reactive Uptake of Isoprene-Derived Epoxydiols (IEPOX)

Acid-catalyzed reactions between gas- and particle-phase constituents are critical to atmospheric secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation.

Direct C-H Radiocyanation of Arenes via Organic Photoredox Catalysis

Herein, we disclose the construction of aromatic nitriles via direct C–H functionalization using an acridinium photoredox catalyst and trimethylsilyl cyanide under an aerobic atmosphere.
