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...

Description
Résumé: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.
