Continuous Photoflow Synthesis of Heterohelicenes
Heterohelicenes continue to attract interest for their potential applications as organic chiral materials. To keep up with the demand for novel heterohelicene structures, expedient and scaleable synth...

Chiral supramolecular assembly to enhance the magneto-optical rotation of organic materials - Nature Communications
The relation between magnetooptical activity and chirality has previously been confused. Chiral polymer films are presented with state-of-the-art Verdet constants, revealing the role of chirality, and...

I'm proud to present our group's first independent paper! 🥳In this preprint, we show a scalable (> 2g, almost 200 mg/h) synthesis of thia-, oxa-, and azahelicenes in continuous flow. Well done, Katherine, Chenyu, Shain, and Yang! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr...
