Homoleptic and Heteroleptic Carbones L1‐C‐L2
DFT and CCSD(T) calculations reveal that heteroleptic carbones L₁–C–L2 are thermodynamically stable species even with a weakly binding donor such as N2. Bond strengths show no simple correlation with bond lengths. Weaker carbon‐ligand bonds in homoleptic complexes L1─C─L1 are mostly strengthened in heteroleptic carbons L1─C─L2, while stronger bonds L2 ...

Donor–Acceptor Pentacene Analogues With Near‐Infrared Emission and Tunable Aromaticity
Air‐ and photostable heterocyclic pentacene analogues with donor and acceptor groups flanking a para‐quinodimethane core exhibit large dipole moments, narrow bandgaps, reversible redox behavior, and NIR‐I to NIR‐II absorption and emission with pronounced solvatochromism.

Topology‐Dependent Coke Formation in the Catalytic Pyrolysis of Phenol Over HFAU and HZSM‐5 Zeolites
The coke formation and speciation during the catalytic pyrolysis of lignin over different zeolite topologies were studied with a combination of operando EPR spectroscopy and ex situ pulsed techniques aided with DFT calculations. Operando EPR data showed that the coke formation in HFAU is fast compared to HZSM‐5.

A Free N‐Heterocyclic Carbene and Its Metal Complex
Free N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are directly visualized on ultrathin sodium‐chloride films on gold (NaCl/Au(111)) using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and density functional theory (DFT). Submolecular imaging reveals their structure and frontier orbital.

A novel molecular design strategy is employed to modify the D–A type SAM using an alkyne linker. Incorporation of the alkyne linker enhanced π‐electron delocalization, facilitating more efficient hole transfer, and strengthened interfacial bonding, thereby improving device stability. As a result, the perovskite solar cells achieved an impressive PCE of
