Metathesis‐Sourced Epoxides in Ring‐Opening Copolymerization: Selective Access to Degradable Polythioesters

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Metathesis‐derived cyclopentene epoxides enable strictly alternating, scrambling‐free ring‐opening copolymerization with phthalic thioanhydride, yielding well‐defined polythioesters with molecular weights up to ∼38 kg/mol. Their performance extends to oxygen‐based anhydrides and selective terpolymerizations. Direct comparisons with all‐oxygen analogues

The investigation of optimum condition of natural rubber epoxidation reaction in latex phase

Majalah Kulit, Karet, dan Plastik, 2021
Natural rubber (NR) latex epoxidation is a chemical modifcation of natural rubber to produce natural rubber with higher polarity (oil resistant) which is commonly called epoxidized natural rubber (ENR). ENR is produced from the reaction of natural rubber

The Diarylprolinol Silyl Ethers: After 20 Years Still Opening New Doors in Asymmetric Catalysis

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 11, 9 March 2026.
Catalysis Rules! The year 2025 marks the 20th anniversary of diarylprolinol silyl ethers in asymmetric organocatalysis. During the first decade after their discovery, these catalysts have been established as one of the most versatile tools in aminocatalysis. Although now considered mature, recent years have witnessed renewed innovation.

LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Multiparasitism Resolves the Apparent Paradox of High Male Pheromone Investment Despite Frequent Within‐Host Mating in a Parasitoid

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
It is unknown why males of the parasitoid wasp Nasonia giraulti produce large amounts of a costly sex pheromone although they were long thought to mate with their females already before emergence within the host. Mated females do no longer respond to the pheromone.

(Poly)Borylated Species as Modern Reactive Groups toward Unusual Synthetic Applications

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 10, 2 March 2026.
In this review, we spotlight recent breakthroughs in α‐polyboron‐substituted carbon‐centered intermediates (carbanion, carbocation, radical, and carbene) and polyborylated alkenes. By bridging fundamental reactivity with the application potential of these extraordinary species, we hope this review will serve as a roadmap for harnessing these unique ...
