Artificial phosphodiesterases that combine a guanidinium unit with a general base connected by a m-xylylene linker catalyze the transesterification of the RNA model compound 2-hydroxypropyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate (HPNP). The bifunctional catalysts presented in this work show varying extents of cooperation

A series of m-xylene/NO(x) photooxidation experiments were conducted to determine the influence of light intensity and radiation spectrum on secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation within the UC Riverside/CE-CERT environmental chamber. The environmental chamber is equipped with 80 115-W black lights
