Halogenated Anilines as Novel Natural products from Marine biofilm forming microalga

Highly toxic haloanilines were thought to be of purely synthetic origin. But their discovery as Novel Natural Product has made us rethink the degradation mechanism of toxic harmful polymers. For further information- DOI : 10.1039/C9CC05992J

Hybrid Dynamic Windows using Reversible Metal Electrodeposition and Ion Insertion

We are heavily dependent on nature to meet our energy requirements and our ever increasing needs has raised many concerns! Use of self tinting Dynamic windows is an innovative approach to minimise our energy consumption without having to compromise on comfort. A group of chemists have now designed Dynamic Windows where the transparency of the window can be altered through reversible electroplating of Bi and Cu at the working electrode and Li+ insertion in a nickel oxide counter electrode.
