Assessing Benzene Dimer Interactions in Solution With a Molecular Balance
The Gecko in the ToC was generated with Canva (31.03.2025 11:00 pm), the remaining graphics by the authors. ABSTRACT We present a combined experimental and computational study of a 1,4/1,6‐dibenzyl substituted cyclooctatetraene (COT)‐based molecular balance as a model to assess the benzene dimer interactions in solution.

Organocatalytic Formal (3+2+1)‐Cycloaddition of Allenoates, Michael Acceptors, and Carbaldehydes
The use of secondary amine Lewis base organocatalysts allows for the unprecedented activation of allenoates for formal (3+2+1)‐cycloadditions with Michael acceptors and aromatic carbaldehydes. ABSTRACT Employing secondary amines as covalently interacting Lewis basic organocatalysts allows for the activation of electron‐deficient allenes (allenoates ...

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.

Nitrooxylation—the installation of nitrate esters (–ONO2) has evolved from classical mixed‐acid protocols to catalytic and mechano‐, flow‐, photo‐, and electrochemical strategies. This review delineates ionic and radical manifolds for C–ONO2 bond formation, emphasizing mechanistic control, selected substrate scope, and selectivity.
