Divergent Synthesis of Möbius and Hückel N‐Heterocycloarenes From a Common Macrocyclic Backbone

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
In the divergent synthesis of Möbius and Hückel N‐heterocycloarenes from a common macrocyclic precursor, the annulation reaction dictates topology: Scholl reaction gives Möbius topology, while InCl3‐mediated alkyne annulation gives Hückel topology. The Möbius N‐heterocycloarene is unevenly contorted as revealed by crystal structure, and the Hückel N ...

Direct Solar Power‐Driven Durable Ammonia Electrosynthesis From Nitrate Under Fluctuating Voltage Conditions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Isolated Sn sites on Cu(111) induce a highly asymmetric charge distribution, which promotes water dissociation, accelerates key intermediate hydrogenation, and suppresses competing hydrogen evolution. As a result, SnCu111 delivers NH3 Faradaic efficiencies above 90% over an 800 mV potential window and enables stable direct solar power‐driven NH3 ...

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

A Tert‐Alkyl Terephthalate Derivative as a Universal Degradable Unit for Condensation Polymers

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A sterically bulky dicarboxylic acid core bearing a tertiary alkyl ester enables photocatalytic C─O bond cleavage via generation of a stabilized tertiary alkyl radical. Incorporated into polyarylate, polyurethane, and polyester, this universal trigger facilitates efficient degradation under identical conditions (up to 99% within 2–4 h). Remarkably, the

Biophysical Characterization and Proteomic Analysis of Small Extracellular Vesicles Derived From Different Neural Cell Lines

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This study systematically compares small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from four neural cell lines, revealing how cellular origin shapes vesicle biophysical properties and proteomic cargo. Distinct, lineage‐specific signatures linked to neuronal, astrocytic, and microglial functions are identified, highlighting the importance of cell source ...

A New Switchable Zr12 Oxocluster Based Large Pore Metal–Organic Framework Functionalized With Spin Crossover Complexes for Acetic Acid Colorimetric Sensing

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We present here (1)⊂MIP‐216(Zr), a new hybrid material composed of an FeII spin crossover complex (1) loaded in the pores of a new hydrophobic metal–organic framework (MIP‐216(Zr), that presents a high affinity toward acetic acid and acts as a highly sensitive colorimetric sensor of acetic acid vapor due to a spin state switching of the encapsulated ...

Bottlebrush Polyolefin Sulfones as Triggerable and Degradable Pressure‐Sensitive Adhesives

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A grafting‐through alternating copolymerization strategy yields poly(norbornene sulfone) bottlebrush polymers with high molar mass. These materials function as additive‐free pressure‐sensitive adhesives. The incorporation of cleavable sulfone units enables rapid breakdown under mild alkaline conditions, providing a pathway toward sustainable, high ...
