Can changing light wavelength change your chemistry? 💡🌈
New research reports 99.1% HMF conversion at 450 nm using @Asynt Illumin8 and fReactor PhotoFLOW photoreactors.
Great work by @wojcieszakr et al!

@bach-lab.bsky.socialProud of Simone Stegbauer and everyone involved! 🎉
Their new work on visible-light-driven, Lewis-acid-catalyzed intramolecular (3 + 2) cycloadditions of olefins to aromatic aldehydes is out now in ACS Catalysis. 🙌

@kerryasynt.bsky.socialSeeing as I’m at #PhotoCat2026, one for the photochemists… 💡🧪
Solstice screens reactions at 365 nm, before taking the optimised chemistry into continuous flow.
Batch to optimise. Flow to scale.

@kerryasynt.bsky.socialWell this is a first……..
Every single product from Asynt’s photoreactor range on display at #PHOTOCAT2026 at the Universitat d'Alacant.
A shining example of engineering excellence. 🧪💡
@kerryasynt.bsky.socialDancing the light fantastic in Alicante this week💃💡🇪🇸
@Asynt is exhibiting at #PHOTOCAT26, talking all things #photochemistry & #photocatalysis
We’ll be making light work of chemistry, so come & say hola if you’re around & about. 👋

@garmonkz.bsky.socialOne proton retuned a molecular switch from visible to near-infrared light, shifting absorption by 160 nm. It is a powerful design principle, not yet a finished sensor or medical device. #Photochemistry #MaterialsScience https://easy-tm.com/news/odin-proton-pereklyuchil-molekulu-s-vidimogo-sveta-na-i
@bach-lab.bsky.socialNew paper out in Chemical Science!

@kerryasynt.bsky.socialAnd we’re off! ⛴️ 🚗 💨
No Spain, no gain! It’s going to be a busy couple of weeks… 🇪🇸🧪
Plymouth ➡️ Santander ➡️ Madrid ➡️ Alicante.
Customer meetings in Madrid, then onwards to #PhotoCat2026 for plenty of photochemistry & bright ideas, in Alicante! 💡
¡Vamos! 🇪🇸
@kerryasynt.bsky.social8 reactions + 1 photoreactor = happy chemist 🧪💡
@ucdchemistry put @Asynt’s Illumin8 through its paces: parallel screening, reproducibility & temperature control to 0 °C with @JULABO_GmbH
What matters most in a photoreactor? 🤔
@kerryasynt.bsky.socialWhat difference can a few nanometres make? In #photochemistry, potentially a lot. 💡🌈
Wavelength can influence reaction rate and pathways.
@Asynt’s Solstice screens 12 reactions in parallel, from 365–525 nm.
See us at #Photocat2026 🇪🇸
@embiophysics.bsky.social1/3 The magnetic part of light barely touches molecules — usually. Nanostructures can switch on 'forbidden' chemistry, like making singlet oxygen. What else could magnetic light unlock? #academicsky #photochemistry #sciwri
@synthesis1969.bsky.social💡Sometimes the best discoveries come from unexpected side reactions! Discover a visible-light-enabled route to penta-substituted #pyridines via sequential [2+2]-cycloadditions and a ring-opening/aromatization cascade by Corinna Schindler & co-workers☀️

@synthesis1969.bsky.social👋 Meet the minds behind SYNTHESIS!
This week, we're featuring our Associate Editor Daniele Leonori✨
Based at RWTH Aachen University, his research focuses on #Photochemistry, #RadicalChemistry, and visible-light #photocatalysis.
🧪 Who's next? Meet another editor in 2 weeks!

@ezc-group.bsky.socialLast week, Suraksha, Jake, Sagarika, Aniket, & Salil represented the group at the RSC #Photophysics & #Photochemistry Early Career Meeting 2026, Durham University! 🤩👏Sharing posters & talks on #MRTADF, #Mechanophotochemistry, & nanoaggregates. @st-andrewschem.bsky.social @standrewsosc.bsky.social
@garmonkz.bsky.socialA single light pulse launched a complete Pd-complex switching cycle spanning 15+ orders of time—from femtoseconds to hours, including transient Pd–O cleavage and thermal recovery. It is a model complex, not yet a device. #Photochemistry #Spectroscopy https://easy-tm.com/news/odin-svetovoy-impuls-zap
@kerryasynt.bsky.socialHello Durham University Department of Chemistry! 👋🏼
Over the next two days Asynt is shining a light on the @rsc.org’s #Photophysics and #Photochemistry Early Careers Meeting. 💡 🧪
Showcasing the PhotoSyn for the first time on an exhibition stand.
Watt are you waiting for?
