ABSTRACT Growing demand for healthier beverages is driving innovation in the wine sector, with dealcoholized wine emerging as a promising alternative. However, little is known about the contextual conditions under which consumers would choose dealcoholized wine, particularly in countries with strong wine traditions. To fill this gap, this work examines

Light‐Enhanced Chloride Transport by Thiourea‐Appended Molecular Motor
A molecular motor functionalized with a thiourea anion‐binding motif mediates transmembrane chloride transport. Light irradiation enhances transport efficiency by populating a more active metastable isomer, which slowly equilibrates to the initial stable isomer.

Membrane‐aided simultaneous reaction–separation for liquid phase products
Abstract Conventionally, reaction and separation are conducted as separate steps in liquid‐phase manufacturing, with products formed during reaction and subsequently separated from unreacted reagents, solvents, and byproducts. Integrating these steps into a simultaneous reaction–separation process can improve efficiency and reduce costs.
