General description
H3PO2, a monobasic oxyacid, is also referred to as phosphinic acid. H3PO2 participates as a reducing agent for the conversion of aromatic and aliphatic diselenides to the corresponding selenols.
It undergoes oxidation in the presence of Ce(IV) and a strong acid to afford cerium(IV) hypophosphite complex ions.

We present a simple and facile method to synthesize nanoplatelets of 2D Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) perovskites of the type (CH3(CH2)3NH3)2(CH3NH3)Pb2I7 where n = 2. The 2D RP nanoplatelets are synthesized from bulk 2D RP crystals via a reflux pre-treatment mediated-ultrasonication method.

The robust material stability of the quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) metal halide perovskites has opened the possibility for their usage instead of three-dimensional (3D) perovskites. Further, devices based on large area single crystal membranes have shown increasing promise for photoelectronic applications. However
