A novel reaction involving gaseous alkanes is now online in @SciMag ! 🎉

https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.aea0783

After a long journey with Pol, Sergio, and Alvaro — under the guidance of Martín Fañanás Mastral — we've unlocked the allylation of C₁–C₄ alkanes using a combination of FeCl₃/collidine

Curious about the chemistry — and the role of collidine 🤐? Have a look at the paper!

"The process to form the semiconductor, called thermal condensation polymerization, uses cheap and Earth-abundant materials, and could eventually lead to a more efficient, economical path to clean energy than existing solar technologies," says project lead Karthik Shankar of the University of Alberta Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, an expert in the field of #photocatalysis.
