Oxidative Generation and Reactivity of the Cyclopropyl Radical From a Martin Silicate
A photoredox strategy employing Martin silicates enables the oxidative generation and controlled capture of cyclopropyl radicals, including the naked one, long considered challenging intermediates. The method affords functionalized cyclopropanes through both Giese‐type additions and dual nickel/photoredox C(sp3)−C(sp2) cross‐couplings.

Catalyst‐Free Selective Reduction of Nitrogen Dioxide to Nitric Oxide
Common main group reductants selectively convert nitrogen dioxide to nitric oxide in a catalyst‐free manner. Computational studies suggest divergent reaction pathways depending on the reductant employed. Where boranes and silanes proceed via a two‐electron process, and hydrogen surrogates undergo stepwise one‐electron processes.

Germylium Catalyzed Dehydrofluorination Reactions of Fluorinated Alkanes
Dehydrofluorination reactions of fluorinated alkanes catalyzed by germylium ions are reported. Computational studies of the mechanism revealed an E2 type mechanism involving a germane as a base to facilitate olefin formation in competition with an SN2 mechanism for hydrodefluorination.

Expanding Cyanide‐Bridged Weakly Coordinating Anions Through the Brominated Silver Salt Ag[BCNBBr]
The brominated weakly coordinating anion [μ‐(CN)(B(C6F4Br)3)2] ([BCNBBr]−), based on two B(C6F4Br)3 units bridged by cyanide, is obtained as its silver salt Ag[BCNBBr] from CH2Cl2. Ag[BCNBBr] enables oxidation and halide abstraction reactions, affording diverse [BCNBBr]− salts with oxidizing and electrophilic cations.

Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...
