This work describes the first example of a thermally stable α‐SF5 organometallic reagent, which allows for extensive downstream functionalization by allylation and acylation reactions under copper catalysis, as well as palladium‐catalyzed Negishi‐type cross‐coupling conditions up to 96% yield. In silico analysis shines initial light on the requirements

We report a systematic study of β‐ketonitrile–modified Prodan‐type solvatochromic fluorophores. The β‐ketonitrile substitution induces marked bathochromic shifts in absorption and emission and significantly enhances fluorescence quantum yields in nonpolar solvents.

Unlocking the chemistry of caramel by simulations and experimental validation. αFFase1${\alpha }\rm{FFase1}$ converts inulobiose into difructose dianhydride I, one component of caramel, through two steps: a rate‐limiting glycosylation (with a rare sugar ring flip) followed by a cyclization step, guided by residues E85, K147, and N226.

Tribenzotriquinacene Fused Dimers (“Fusodimers”)—Synthesis and Host–Guest Properties
Two tribenzotriquinacene units merged with each other in either syn‐ or anti‐orientation of the bowls have become accessible in a short synthesis. In contrast to the anti‐isomer, the syn‐isomer forms 1:1 host–guest complexes with both C60 and C70 in solution and in the solid state, as shown by 1H NMR spectroscopy and x‐ray diffraction.

The Radical Chemistry of 2,3‐Diguanidinopyridines: Coordination and Visible‐Light Photochemistry
Substitution at the pyridine core of 2,3‐diguanidinopyridines was used to develop novel redox‐active molecules with three interconvertible redox states. They are applied as redox‐active ligands in coordination chemistry. Visible‐light irradiation of the pyridine N‐benzylated molecules leads to photoconversion to a higher‐energetic isomer.
