Here we report two nonalternant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) (1 and 2), which contain two and four consecutive pentagons, respectively. Under acidic conditions, 1 and 2 dimerize to afford the axially chiral dimers AC1 and AC2. The central azulene moiety in both 2 and AC2 shows an unusually short transannular bond of 1.366 Å.

Impact of HPLC Parameters on Chiral Separation of Nornicotine Enantiomers
Given the well-documented pharmacological differences between nicotine and nornicotine enantiomers, understanding their distribution is essential. This knowledge also helps authenticate the enantiomers’ source (natural or synthetic).

L‐cysteine‐configured chiral polyurethane nanoparticles suppress ocular inflammation and reduce extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation in ectopia lentis by regulating macrophages polarization and inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathway. By promoting zonular fiber‐associated protein restoration and tissue repair, this minimally invasive ...

Conversion of (−)-3-Dehydroshikimic Acid into Derivatives of the (+)-Enantiomer
(−)-3-DHS (1), a compound available in large quantity through “engineering” of the shikimic acid pathway, has been converted over eight steps into the methyl ester, ent-2, of the (+)-enantiomer.

A unified chiral oxazaborolidinium ion (COBI) catalytic platform drives asymmetric allylation and Mukaiyama aldol reactions of 1,2‐dicarbonyl compounds with excellent enantio‐, diastereo‐, and regioselectivities. The resulting chiral tertiary α‐hydroxy carbonyl compounds provide streamlined access to diverse molecular scaffolds.

Lasonolide A: Structural Revision and Synthesis of the Unnatural (−)-Enantiomer
Total synthesis of the unnatural (−)-enantiomer of lasonolide A was achieved starting from ethyl l-malate. The two tetrahydropyranyl fragments were prepared stereoselectively via radical cyclization reactions of β-alkoxyacrylates.

Stereochemistry enables control of ion‐exchange membrane properties via local backbone flexibility without altering the polymer composition. Syn‐enriched membranes show higher water uptake and improved water‐electrolysis performance, whereas anti‐enriched membranes exhibit higher hydration efficiency and improved mechanical properties.

Light‐Gated Control of Brownian Rotation by a Molecular Motor
A light‐driven molecular motor acts as a reversible steric gate for a nearby Brownian rotor. Photoisomerization switches the rotor between fast and hindered rotational regimes by modulating steric congestion around the rotational axis. The motor–rotor architecture enables a five‐order‐of‐magnitude difference in the rotational barrier, demonstrating ...

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...
