When including all three factors, the change of segregation energy could reach 1.63 eV. Therefore, operating conditions have a noteworthy influence on the segregation behavior of PtM ORR electrocatalysts, which should be considered in the further design of PtM ORR electrocatalysts.Photoredox-mediated C-H bond alkylation of 6-aryl-2,2'-bipyridines with N-(acyloxy)phthalimides is reported. The reaction exhibits excellent functional group tolerance, including chiral aliphatic groups. The influence of the incorporated C6'-alkyl group on the photophysical properties of the corresponding (N^N^C) cyclometalated Pt(ii) complexes is described, including chiroptical properties.A one-step synthesized LD specific fluorescent probe TTIE with high specificity, good photostability and great capacity in generating cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) under low powered white light irradiation is designed and synthesized for LD specific image-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT) in human clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) primary cells and tissues.A dicyanoisophorone/acrylate-combined probe (DDP) was synthesized and designed as a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent sensor for the rapid identification of Cys over Hcy and GSH in aqueous solution with a large Stokes shift (143 nm). The detection limit of Cys was 1.23 μM, which was lower than that of the intracellular Cys concentration. DDP was cell membrane-permeable and had been successfully applied to the detection of intracellular Cys in HeLa cells. The detection mechanism was determined by 1H NMR titration, MS and DFT calculations.Controlling surface energies of each facet is essential for the anisotropic growth of two-dimensional transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs). However, it is a challenge due to stronger binding energies of ligand head groups to the edge facets compared to the planar facets. Herein, we demonstrate that the adsorption of ligands on metal positions can induce partial electron localization on the chalcogen sites, and then accelerate metal-chalcogen bond formation for enhanced anisotropic growth of nanosheets. And only in the case of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO)-adsorbed nanosheets, surface polarization can be unveiled on the surface of the colloidal nanosheets due to restricted development of nonpolar ligand shells by the steric effects of the ligands. Moreover, density functional theory (DFT) calculation results reveal that the decrease of surface energy on the (100) edge facets as well as the increase on the (001) basal facets by the adsorption of triorganylphosphine oxide also contribute to the preferentially lateral growth. As a result, various 2D TMCs, including MoSe2, WSe2, and SnSe2 synthesized with TOPO, show enhanced anisotropic growth.Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP)-catalyzed direct dehydroxydifluoroalkylation of benzylic and allylic alcohols with difluoroenoxysilanes is developed. This procedure enables the synthesis of a broad range of α,α-difluoroketones, a class of highly valuable intermediates and building blocks in medicinal and organic chemistry. Here, we have demonstrated for the first time that HFIP could act as a powerful catalyst for fluorinated carbon-carbon bond formation. The application of this protocol in late-stage dehydroxydifluoroalkylation of potentially bioactive drugs and natural products has also been carried out.Complexation of 1,3,6,8-tetra(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,7-diazapyrene with boron precursors provided the tetracoordinate diazapyrene boron complexes as separable anti- and syn-isomers. The structural difference of these isomers induces unique properties such as self-association behaviour of the syn-isomer and isomerisation of the anti-isomer in the solution and solid states.We report a highly concentrated electrolyte consisting of 4 M potassium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (KFSI) in diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (DEGDME). This new electrolyte enables stable cycling of K metal anodes with a high CE (over 98% over 400 cycles), and excellent capacity retention (99.7% after 500 cycles) of K||potassium Prussian blue (KPB) batteries.Nanoparticles with bone targeting ability and pH-sensitivity were prepared with polyaspartamide (PASPAM) derivatives based on polysuccinimide (PSI) grafted with octadecylamine (C18), hydrazine (HYD) and polyethylene glycol (PEG, Mw 5000). For the bone targeting, alendronate (ALN), which has bone affinity, was grafted to PEG and doxorubicin (DOX) was conjugated with linkers of acid sensitive hydrazone bonds, which can be cleaved most effectively in an intracellular acidic environment. At pH 5.0, ∼75% of the drug was released from ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM due to the effective cleavage of HYD under the acidic condition. Myc inhibitor Also, ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM particles were more effectively adsorbed on the surface of bone than PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM. According to an in vivo antitumor activity test, the volume of tumor treated with ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM decreased (1550 mm3) when compared with the PBS control sample (3850 mm3), proving that ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM is an effective drug delivery system for the treatment of bone metastasis of breast cancer.An unprecedented Mo-organic molecular cage built on interesting MoVI2O5 secondary building blocks and BTC ligands, which has been successfully synthesized and systematically characterized, presents the first example of an isopolyoxomolybdates(vi)-organic molecular cage. An investigation into the related Cs+-exchange experiment was performed in detail.Stimuli-responsive and, in particular, temperature-responsive smart materials have recently gained much attention in a variety of applications. On the other hand, 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) and related structures are widely used as nucleophilic catalysts and also as specific parts of rationally designed molecules, where reversible reactions of the pyridinic nitrogen with electrophiles are involved. In our study, we have found an unexpectedly significant impact of temperature on the protonation degree of DMAP derivatives, especially in the case of protonation of the 4-(dimethylamino)-1-(2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridin-4-yl)pyridinium cation, derived from the reaction of DMAP with pentafluoropyridine. Thus, when dissolved in the TfOH-SO2ClF-CD2Cl2 acid system at 30 °C, this cation underwent a slight ( less then 7%) protonation on the dimethylamino group, while the temperature decrease to -70 °C resulted in its complete protonation. Notably, such a scale of this phenomenon has never been observed before for other weak nucleophiles, being many times lower at the same change of temperature.
