Steric Hindrance and Geometrical Isomerism [PDF]

Nature, 1934
IT is not often that evidence in the form of steric hindrance is available for confirming the configurations of geometrical isomers among ethylenic compounds. The following observations are thus of interest. cis--Dibromocinnamic acid1 (m.p. 100°) esterifies to the extent of only 6 per cent in one hour, and 33 per cent in 16 hours, by the Fischer-Speier

Elucidating the Role of Surface Ligands on the Oxidative Etching of Au Bipyramids During Photothermia Using Liquid Cell Transmission Electron Microscopy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Gold bipyramids can act as efficient plasmonic nanoheaters, but they often reshape during laser heating. This study shows that oxygen nanobubbles drive oxidative etching and that surface ligands control stability. CTAB‐ and citrate‐coated particles blunt and lose optical performance, whereas polystyrene sulfonate preserves shape and heating by ...

Biophysical assay for tethered signaling reactions reveals tether-controlled activity for the phosphatase SHP-1 [PDF]

, 2017
Tethered enzymatic reactions are ubiquitous in signaling networks but are poorly understood. A previously unreported mathematical analysis is established for tethered signaling reactions in surface plasmon resonance (SPR).

Ultrasmall Platinum Nanoparticles for Radiation‐Enhanced Cancer Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work proposes a nanomedicine‐based strategy to enhance X‐ray radiotherapy for cancer treatment. Ultrasmall Pt‐NPs exhibit catalase‐like activity that may contribute to modulation of the tumor microenvironment and amplify interactions between radiation and biological matter, leading to increased DNA damage.

In pursuit of β-amino α-nitro β-trifluoromethyl ketones: nitro-Mannich vs Mannich-type reactions [PDF]

, 2017
The reactivity of alfa-nitro ketones with trifluoromethyl aldimines is studied for the first time. While under nitro-Mannich conditions only the facial stereoselectivity can be controlled, organocatalysed Mannich-type reactions allowed a complete control

Polymer Network Modified Perovskite for High‐Performance Pure Blue Light‐Emitting Diodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A polymer network of poly(4‐vinylphenol) (PVPh) is introduced to improve pure blue perovskite light‐emitting diodes. PVPh effectively passivates defects, enhances film morphology, reduces lattice strain, and suppresses ion migration. These effects lead to record device performance, achieving 9.82% external quantum efficiency and stable blue emission at
