Application:	Achmatowicz Rearrangement-Inspired Development of Green Chemistry, Organic Methodology, and Total Synthesis of Natural Products.: This study discusses innovative organic synthesis strategies inspired by the Achmatowicz rearrangement, focusing on green chemistry and the synthesis of natural products, which could include applications of furfuryl alcohol as a precursor or reagent (Liang et al., 2022 ). Triplet Photochemistry of Dissolved Black Carbon and Its Effects on the Photochemical Formation of Reactive Oxygen Species.: This paper examines the triplet-state photochemistry of dissolved black carbon, which may implicate the photochemical behaviors of furfuryl alcohol in environmental matrices (Wang et al., 2020 ). Production of Singlet Oxygen ((1)O(2)) during the Photochemistry of Aqueous Pyruvic Acid: The Effects of pH and Photon Flux under Steady-State O(2)(aq) Concentration.: Investigates singlet oxygen production in aqueous pyruvic acid, potentially relevant to understanding the photochemical properties of furfuryl alcohol (Eugene and Guzman, 2019 ). Triplet-State Photochemistry of Dissolved Organic Matter: Triplet-State Energy Distribution and Surface Electric Charge Conditions.: Discusses the triplet-state energy of dissolved organic matter, which could relate to the behavior of furfuryl alcohol in various environmental conditions (Zhou et al., 2019 ).
