Atomically precise metal cluster enzymes for pathological tissue regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of atomically precise metal cluster enzymes (MCEs) for pathological tissue regeneration. Atomically precise MCEs can modulate biological processes, such as attenuation of inflammatory responses, eradication of bacterial pathogens, regulation of angiogenesis, and promotion of cell development.

Trigonal Phosphine Umpolung: Electrophilicity Driven by a Redox‐Active Boron Cluster

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Coupling of a phosphine to a redox‐active cluster enables polarity reversal, or umpolung, at phosphorus. Phosphines are classically known for their nucleophilicity, and while electrophilic reactivity has been observed in geometrically constrained, non‐trigonal systems, similar behavior in ordinary trigonal phosphines is rare.

Optically induced charge-transfer in donor-acceptor-substituted p- and m- C2B10H12 carboranes

Nature Communications
Icosahedral carboranes, C2B10H12, have long been considered to be aromatic but the extent of conjugation between these clusters and their substituents is still being debated. m- and p-Carboranes are compared with m- and p-phenylenes as conjugated bridges

Carboranes as Lewis Acids: Tetrel Bonding in CB₁₁H₁₁ Carbonium Ylide

Crystals, 2021
High-level quantum-chemical computations (G4MP2) are carried out in the study of complexes featuring tetrel bonding between the carbon atom in the carbenoid CB11H11—obtained by hydride removal in the C-H bond of the known closo-monocarbadodecaborate ...

Synergistic Action of Ascorbic Acid and Readily Accessible NHC^N Ligands for the Oxidation of Gold(I) With Electron‐Rich Aryldiazonium Salts

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The synergic action of ascorbic acid and NHC^N ligands enables Au(I) oxidation with electron‐rich aryldiazonium salts. ABSTRACT The synergistic action of ascorbic acid and NHC^N ligands enables the challenging oxidation of Au(I) with electron‐rich aryldiazonium salts in the absence of a cocatalyst and/or irradiation. EPR, NMR, and x‐ray analyses reveal

N,O-Type Carborane-Based Materials

Crystals, 2016
This review summarizes the synthesis and coordination chemistry of a series of carboranyl ligands containing N,O donors. Such carborane-based ligands are scarcely reported in the literature when compared to other heteroatom-containing donors.

A flat carborane with multiple aromaticity beyond Wade–Mingos’ rules

Nature Communications, 2020
The polyhedral skeletal electron pair theory (PESPT), also known as Wade-Mingos’ rules, defines a relationship between skeletal bonding electron pairs and structure of clusters.

o‐Carborane‐based multi‐resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter exhibits highly efficient and multifunctional electroluminescence

FlexMat, EarlyView.
By strategically incorporating boron/nitrogen multi‐resonance (B/N‐MR) core into the o‐carborane unit, perfect exciton utilization can be achieved as well as exhibiting stimuli‐responsive properties. The resulting DBN‐oCb‐based organic light‐emitting diode (OLED) demonstrated an impressive external quantum efficiency of 22.3%, the highest reported for ...

Quantification of 10B and 11B in Biological Samples in Translational Science and Clinical Applications for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT)

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a targeted radiotherapy that exploits the selective accumulation of the 10B isotope within tumors, followed by irradiation with low‐energy neutrons to induce high linear energy transfer particles with short path lengths, resulting in localized tumor cell destruction while sparing surrounding healthy ...
