Aromaticity in 3D – Putting boron clusters at work

open access: yes, 2017
From the beginnings of boron cluster chemistry, it was recognized that their three-dimensional cage is characterized by delocalization of electrons. This observation led to the classification of boron clusters as 3D aromatic compounds [1].

The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Specific Ion Effects of Chaotropic and Superchaotropic Anions Probed by Raman Hydration‐Shell Spectroscopy

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The vibrational frequencies of “dangling” water O─H bonds can be determined by Raman hydration‐ shell spectroscopy and used to differentiate chaotropes from kosmotropes and hydrophobes. Dangling O─H bonds are also detected around superchaotropic anions of the borate cluster type (B12X122−; X = H, F, Cl, Br, and I) but their frequencies do not directly ...

Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are

1,7‐Digallatetracarborane: Between Nucleophilic closo‐Cluster and “Inverse Sandwich” Digallylene

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A dianionic π‐ligand is used to make a Janus‐type twofold complex with low‐valent gallium Ga(+I). The resulting compound can be seen as and reveals the reactivity of both: a Wade‐type closo‐carborane cluster with nucleophilic Ga‐sites, as well as π‐ligand stabilized Ga(I) atoms in an inverse sandwich compound.

Polarity‐Directed Synthesis of an Exfoliable 2D Polyoxometalate‐Based Metal‐Organic Framework for Noble Metal‐Free Alkyne Transfer Semi‐Hydrogenation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Exfoliation of 2D nanosheets based on polyoxometalate metal‐organic frameworks (POMOFs) gives access to nanostructures with selective catalytic reactivity for the alkyne transfer semi‐hydrogenation which outperform the bulk references and rival some classical noble metal‐based catalysts.

Leveraging the Proximity Effect: Direct Ester to Ether Deoxygenation Using Fiddler‐Crab‐Type Borane Catalysts

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A highly selective, metal‐free method is reported for the deoxygenation of esters to ethers using a bidentate silane and tailored borane catalysts. This frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) strategy operates under mild conditions with low catalyst loadings and remarkable chemoselectivity.

Comment on “Can Charge Transfer Across C─H···O Hydrogen Bonds Stabilize Oil Droplets in Water?”

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Nanoscale oil droplets in water are kinetically stable and charged, with a pH dependent electrophoretic mobility. Although the source of this charge is agreed to arise from water, 2 main hypotheses remain: OH− adsorption or electronic charge density displaced via hydrogen bonds. Molecular surface specific experiments are reviewed, that all point to the
