π‐Radical Cascades to Peri‐Fused Triangulene Dimers

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the potential of open‐shell molecular graphene fragments as synthons for constructing graphene nanostructures via π‐radical cascades. By identifying monoradical intermediates as key selectivity‐determining species and tuning steric effects in a triangulene precursor, we show that reactivity in a formally diradical system can be ...

Iron‐Photocatalyzed C(sp3)–H Phosphonylation of Alkanes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Alkyl phosphonates are valuable motifs that can be prepared by phosphonylations of various common functional groups. However, direct phosphonylations of C(sp3)–H bonds are limited to activated positions. Herein, we report an iron‐photocatalyzed phosphonylation of unactivated C(sp3)–H bonds using a novel phosphite radical trap, which is equipped with an

Entropy‐Stabilized Aluminate Catalysts That Break the Activity–Stability Tradeoff in CF4 Hydrolysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Entropy‐stabilized aluminate breaks the activity–stability tradeoff in CF4 hydrolysis by combining a multication aluminate framework with an entropy‐stabilized lattice. An electron‐deficient Al–O environment is F‐philic but O‐phobic, enabling C–F activation while suppressing H2O poisoning. Under steam‐rich, strongly fluorinating conditions, the entropy‐

Single‐Atom Iron‐Catalyzed Oxidative Esterification: From Methylarenes to the Upcycling of Polystyrene and Lignin‐Derived Feedstocks

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Heterogeneous iron‐catalyzed environmentally benign and sustainable CH‐oxidative esterification methodology has been developed for the synthesis of esters. This challenging reaction has been achieved by the rational design of specific single atom iron‐based catalyst with Fe‐N4 active centers, which empowered the oxidative esterification of methyl and ...

Redirecting Excited‐State Proton Transfer Through Supramolecular Polymerization in Nanoconfinement

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Supramolecular confinement redirects the excited‐state proton transfer pathway of an amphoteric emitter. In water, the molecule undergoes ESPD, whereas co‐assembly with γ‐cyclodextrin forms nanotubes that template slip‐stacked emitter pairs and enable ESIMPT. Structural and photophysical characterization of the assemblies shows that the preorganization

Unlocking a Nitrosuccinate Lyase for Decarboxylative Enzymatic Hydronitration

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The nitrosuccinate lyase CreD catalyzes C–NO2 bond formation using nitrite in water and shows synthetic practicality with high turnover numbers up to 102,000. A combination of protein engineering and computational methods helped to reveal the mechanistic principles that underpin this unique enzymatic activity.

Strain Engineering via W–O–Ru Interfacial Coupling to Suppress Lattice Oxygen Activation for Stable Acidic Water Electrolysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Constructing atomically coupled W–O–Ru interfacial units on RuO2 triggers a dynamic strain evolution during the oxygen evolution reaction. An initial tensile strain secures structural stability, while a self‐adjusting transition to interfacial compression optimizes catalytic activity.

A Non‐Covalent [4Fe–4S]/[2Fe] Interface in HydF Guides [FeFe]‐Hydrogenase Maturation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Bridged or not? 57Fe NRVS reveals a non‐covalent, electronically coupled interaction between the HydF [4Fe–4S] cluster and the [2Fe] precursor. Boltz‐2 structure predictions suggest that the cubane organizes lipoate‐dependent Hmet chemistry, positioning intermediates for assembly of the CH2–NH–CH2 bridge during H‐cluster biosynthesis.

Cyclo‐Polyproline: Chameleonic All‐Peptide Macrocycles With Induced‐Fit Host‐Guest Recognition

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Macrocycles served as the genesis of supramolecular chemistry, advancing synthetic, separation, and materials fields. Despite their utility, they typically lack synthetic control. This work establishes a robust platform for all‐peptide macrocycles capable of host‐guest complexation and chameleonic behavior.
