Directional control within the secondary coordination sphere redefines CO2 reduction by iron porphyrins. Simply rearranging identical urea hydrogen‐bond donors modulates reactivity, revealing that optimal catalysis does not only arise from maximal intermediate stabilization, but also from directional, adaptive non‐covalent interactions that balance ...

The Scholl reaction of 1,3,6,8‐tetrakis(oligophenyl)‐appended carbazoles afforded stable NH‐containing helical nanographenes, which showed significant redshift and reversible on/off switching of CPL upon the addition of base and acid, respectively. Furthermore, excited‐state proton transfer occurred in dimethyl sulfoxide to generate anionic species ...

A Mechanical Planar Chiral Rotaxane Induces Single‐Handed Helicity in a Twisted Perylene Diimide
A mechanical planar chiral rotaxane (Rmp) is used to induce single‐handed helical chirality (M) in a perylene diimide chromophore, resulting in persistent circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarised luminescence (CPL). ABSTRACT The twisting of chromophores such as perylene diimides (PDIs) into helical structures affords chiroptical properties from

Water‐Derived Radical Species Initiate Six‐Electron Oxidation of Cyclic Ketones in Microdroplets
Spontaneous six‐electron oxidation of cyclic ketones to yield dicarboxylic acids/keto acids is achieved in ethanol microdroplets containing about 2% water under ambient conditions without any metal salts, acids, or oxidants. Mechanistic studies show that trace amounts of water and molecular oxygen serve as active oxidants in this transformation ...

Gradually bent perylene bisimides (PBIs) isolate structural distortion as the sole variable and exhibit negligible intersystem crossing, uncovering rapid vibrational dephasing as the dominant driver of internal conversion through excited‐state vibrational landscape reorganization.

The first catalytic asymmetric formal [3+2] cycloaddition of allylsilanes delivers cis‐2,5‐disubstituted tetrahydrofuran‐3‐ones that serve as versatile intermediates for the synthesis of diverse bioactive scaffolds. ABSTRACT A formal [3+2] cycloaddition via cyclization/1,2‐hydride shift initiated by nucleophilic attack of allylsilanes has been ...

Cysteine Thioaldehydes: Photolytic Generation, Reactivity, and Biological Implications
Photolysis of cysteine phenacylsulfides bearing non‐conjugating electron‐withdrawing substituents leads to high conversions into cysteine thioaldehydes through a Norrish type‐II pathway. This methodology enabled the study of the aqueous reactivity of these important biosynthetic intermediates, which, depending on peptide sequence, pH and buffer ...

Isolable C‐Phosphonio‐Boratavinyl Anion
A persistent C‐phosphonio boratavinyl anion was successfully synthesized. This boron‐containing vinyl lithium, featuring a vinyl carbon with an excessively high negative charge, exhibits remarkable nucleophilic and basic character, which was demonstrated by the result of a rapid reaction with H2 at RT.
