T‐Shaped Stibenium(III) Cation: Hydrostibination Without Sb─H Bond

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A cationic, structurally constrained stibenium platform mediates anti‐Markovnikov hydrostibination of alkenes via element–ligand cooperativity (ELC), thereby bypassing the need for weak Sb─H bonds. ABSTRACT The hydrostibination of alkenes represents a largely underdeveloped transformation, owing to the intrinsic lability of the required Sb─H reagents ...

Black Hole Quencher‐Enhanced Plasmonic Photothermal Conversion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers have developed a universal method to boost plasmonic photothermal conversion by attaching black hole quencher (BHQ) molecules to matched metal nanostructures. This hybrid approach increases efficiency by roughly threefold, reaching up to 69.1% in the near‐infrared‐II window.

Temperature‐ and Light‐Regulated Liquid Crystal Smart Window for Dynamic Control of Daylight and Solar Heat in All‐Weather Conditions

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An environmentally adaptive smart window based on the interplay of light‐driven molecular motors and liquid crystal (LC) polymers is developed. The window can dynamically switch among three distinct working states: transparent, reflective, and scattering, depending on ambient temperature and solar light intensity, enabling excellent modulation of ...

Coherent Random Lasing Realized in Polymer Vesicles

Photonic Sensors, 2019
We have demonstrated the realization of a coherent vesicle random lasing (VRL) from the dye doped azobenzene polymer vesicles self-assembled in the tetrahydrofuran-water system, which contains a double-walled structure: a hydrophilic and hydrophobic part.

Fast Active Merging of Microdroplets in Microfluidic Chambers Driven by Photo-Isomerisation of Azobenzene Based Surfactants

Biosensors, 2019
In this work, we report on the development of a newly synthesized photoactive reversible azobenzene derived surfactant polymer, which enables active and fast control of the merging of microdroplets in microfluidic chambers, driven by a pulsed UV laser ...

Accelerating Primary Screening of USP8 Inhibitors from Drug Repurposing Databases with Tree‐Based Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study introduces a tree‐based machine learning approach to accelerate USP8 inhibitor discovery. The best‐performing model identified 100 high‐confidence repurposable compounds, half already approved or in clinical trials, and uncovered novel scaffolds not previously studied. These findings offer a solid foundation for rapid experimental follow‐up,

Water, Alcohols, Amines, and Amides as Formal Hydrogen‐Atom‐Transfer Reagents Through Activation With Redox‐Active Lewis Acids

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Protic molecules containing strong O─H or N─H bonds typically resist hydrogen‐atom abstraction because of the high reactivity of the resulting heteroatom‐centered radicals. However, association of the protic molecules with redox‐active Lewis acids can provide powerful hydrogen‐atom donors or proton‐coupled‐electron‐transfer reagents.

Interaction Hierarchy and Polymorphic Structure–Property Dynamics in Luminescent Molecular Crystals

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Competing homotypic and heterotypic intermolecular interactions give rise to polymorphic structure–property dynamics in luminescent molecular crystals. Thermal and mechanical stimuli induce distinct phase‐transition pathways accompanied by pronounced photoluminescence changes.
