Diazo Transfer From Nitrous Oxide Employing Phosphorus Ylides
A phosphorus ylide‐mediated strategy achieves the direct fixation of nitrous oxide (N2O) to access diazo compounds, which after intra‐ or intermolecular trapping, afford N2‐containing organic building blocks. This approach provides an alternative to hazardous diazo‐transfer reagents and establishes N2O fixation as a sustainable methodology.

A Negatively Curved Pyrene‐Fused Azaacene
A pyrene‐fused azaacene derivative is reported in which steric overcrowding caused by eight phenyl substituents induces bending of the aromatic framework rather than twisting. ABSTRACT Non‐planar aromatic hydrocarbons display distorted π‐frameworks that give rise to unique optoelectronic properties.

Fine‐tuning steric and C─H···π contacts directs assembly of two CuI cages. An identical naphthylene‐based subcomponent forms a [CuI12L6]12+ pseudo‐hexagonal prism stabilized by 29–32 C─H···π contacts and 12 arene stacking pairs with 6‐methyl‐2‐formylpyridine, whereas the 3‐methyl analog imparts steric clashes, yielding a [CuI8L4]8+ open prism ...

Photocatalytic Transfer Hydrogenation Using Plastic Hydrolysates as Hydrogen Donor
Plastic waste is transformed into functional amines via solar‐driven transfer hydrogenation. Soluble monomers from acid hydrolysis of waste polymers serve as a hydrogen (electron/proton)donors in the selective reduction of nitroarenes using a visible light active photocatalyst consisting of cobalt promoted molybdenum disulfide integrated in cyanamide ...

An oil‐in‐water nanoemulsion transforms a boron difluoride formazanate (BDF) dye into a dual‐modal imaging‐guided theranostic agent (BDF‐NE). Its nonpolar oil core maximizes NIR‐II fluorescence while maintaining strong photoacoustic contrast to guide photothermal therapy with high photostability and 66.8% photothermal conversion efficiency, achieving ...

Azide‐to‐Diazo Transformation Facilitated by Michael Addition via Phosphazide Formation
A new type of Michael addition based on azide‐to‐diazo conversion is disclosed. This unusual transformation proceeds via 1,4‐addition accompanied by N─N bond cleavage of phosphazide intermediates under practical conditions. The high versatility of the resulting Michael adducts enables the synthesis of a wide variety of organonitrogen compounds ...

Sulfur‐Directed Construction of Vinyl Cyclopropanes from 1,3‐Dienes
Sulfur takes control. A pending thioether acts as a molecular compass, directing carbene addition to the 1,3‐diene scaffold with exceptional regio‑ and diastereocontrol to forge sulfur‐substituted vinyl cyclopropanes (S‐VCPs) — molecular architectures inaccessible via conventional cyclopropanation strategies.
