Lithium aluminium hydride (LiAlH4) is a versatile bulk reagent for reduction of ketones to alcohols, or imines to amines. This is a stoichiometric process, needing a lot of LiAlH4 and creating quite some lithium and aluminium waste. Recently the Harder group showed that the imine-to-amine conversion...

The availability of solar energy varies greatly in time and space. For the efficient use of solar energy it is, therefore, crucial to develop new storage methods. Using novel molecular materials, so-called organic photoswitches, solar energy can be stored very easily and released as heat when needed...

Research disciplines have to work together closely to develop new bioactive compounds. To make this collaboration even more efficient in the future, FAU has set up a new research center called “New Bioactive Compounds” (FAU NeW). In this center, successful international and interdisciplinary teams o...
