Radical Stability Paradox: Substituent Effects versus Heats of Formation
Rethinking molecular stability: Quantum‐chemical analyses show that the greater stability of tertiary over primary organic radicals is not caused by stabilizing substituent effects but by the inherent stability of the substituent. ABSTRACT Recently, we have shown that alkyl substituents destabilize the carbon radical center of organic radicals. However,

Utilization of Waste Materials Using the Müller–Kühne Process—A Life Cycle Inventory Study
This study presents a Life Cycle Inventory of the Müller–Kühne process (MKP), which converts gypsum waste into sulfuric acid and cement clinker. The MKP outperforms conventional cement production regarding material yield, though its specific energy demand is higher. Consequently, potentials for circular gypsum waste utilization are discussed.

Research frontiers in using biochar for heavy metal remediation. Abstract Heavy metal contamination of water has long been a serious environmental issue. Biochar and biochar‐based composites are emerging as effective and sustainable solutions for heavy metal removal due to their strong adsorption abilities and environmentally friendly nature.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

The Formation of Covalent Linkages in Lignocellulosic Biomass via the Oxocarbenium Intermediate
Density functional theory models show that the hydrated and acidic hemicellulose matrix in lignocellulosic biomass can generate oxocarbenium ions. These reactive intermediates can participate in the stable formation of glycosidic lignin‐carbohydrate covalent linkages, promoting recalcitrance in plant biomass.

Benzazoles 2‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole and 2‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole exhibit tunable optoelectronic properties via excited‐state intramolecular proton transfer. Combining thermogravimetry (TG‐DSC), vapor pressure measurements, and fluorescence spectroscopy, how sulfur (S) versus oxygen (O) substitution dictates their stability, sublimation ...

Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...
