Water, Alcohols, Amines, and Amides as Formal Hydrogen‐Atom‐Transfer Reagents Through Activation With Redox‐Active Lewis Acids

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Protic molecules containing strong O─H or N─H bonds typically resist hydrogen‐atom abstraction because of the high reactivity of the resulting heteroatom‐centered radicals. However, association of the protic molecules with redox‐active Lewis acids can provide powerful hydrogen‐atom donors or proton‐coupled‐electron‐transfer reagents.

Tailoring K+ Dosage in K+/Zn2+ Mixed Electrolytes via Lattice Expansion Regulation of Zinc Hexacyanoferrate for High‐performance Zinc Ion Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study proposes a fitting curve as a reference to quantify the optimal K+ ratio in K+/Zn2+ mixed electrolyte, thus achieving stable and high‐capacity aqueous zinc ion batteries at each current density. ABSTRACT Incorporating K+ into Zn‐based electrolytes can enhance the performance of aqueous zinc ion batteries, while the lack of a clear rule for ...

A concise approach to functionalised, homochiral pyrrolidinones

Tetrahedron: Asymmetry, 1995
Abstract Acylation of O , N -acetal 1 gives excellent yields of the C-7 substituted products 2a,b . Alkylation of 2a under mild conditions gives high yields of the exo- 3 and endo- 4 substituted products in varying ratios, depending on the alkylating agent.
