Towards symmetry driven and nature inspired UV filter design
Sinapate esters are promising nature-inspired sunscreen and antioxidant agents but their photoisomerization may lead to ineffective or harmful species. Here the authors propose a symmetric ester with indistinguishable trans and cis isomers and prove its effectiveness by optical spectroscopies on a s...

| Summary: | Sinapate esters are promising nature-inspired sunscreen and antioxidant agents but their photoisomerization may lead to ineffective or harmful species. Here the authors propose a symmetric ester with indistinguishable trans and cis isomers and prove its effectiveness by optical spectroscopies on a skin mimic. |
