Over the past decade, the interest in azetidines has continuously risen, by virtue of their highly appealing pharmaceutical properties. Monocyclic, spirocyclic, and bridged azetidines can be accessed by leveraging 1‐azabicyclo[1.1.0]butanes as precursors.

Design of Fuel‐Dependent, Complex‐Coacervate‐Based Synthetic Cells
Fuel‐dependent synthetic cells form and persist only in the presence of chemical fuel, decaying under starvation. We establish design rules for hexapeptide‐based coacervates, showing that tryptophan enhances polyanion binding, extends lifetime, and reduces waste sensitivity.

N‐Aryl Acridone Derivatives as Effective Catalysts for Energy Transfer Reactions
Acridones derivatives have high triplet energy, are simple accessible, and could be used in challenging [2+2] ENT reactions. ABSTRACT Organic photocatalysts capable of promoting high‐energy triplet energy transfer (EnT) remain limited, particularly for demanding [2+2] photocycloaddition reactions.

Flipping the Card With Enantiodivergent Organocatalysis
This minireview elaborates on recent organocatalytic strategies for achieving enantiodivergence—the ability to access both product enantiomers using a single chiral catalyst. It highlights how achiral stimuli, such as solvent polarity and chemical additives, along with minimal catalyst modifications, trigger stereochemical inversions in reactions ...

Late‐Stage Modification of Halotryptophan‐Containing Peptides Via Negishi Cross‐Coupling
Negishi cross‐coupling provides access to the late‐stage functionalization of bromotryptophan‐containing peptides under comparatively mild conditions and is applicable to a range of peptide substrates in the investigated model systems. The examined alkyl iodides and variation of N‐terminal residues demonstrate the feasibility of the transformation in a
