Dioxygen Reduction at a Cu(I) Complex Supported by a Macrocyclic N3O Ligand System
A non‐reactive [CuI(14‐TMC)]+ complex is transformed to an efficient catalyst [CuI(14‐TMCO)]+ (TMCO = 4,8,12‐trimethyl‐1‐oxa‐4,8,12‐triazacyclotetradecane) for 4e−/4H+ reduction of O2 by N → O substitution. ABSTRACT CuI(14 TMCO) (1), involving a N3O‐macrocycle, reacts with O2 at cryogenic temperatures to yield an end‐on peroxodicopper(II) species.

Unlocking the chemistry of caramel by simulations and experimental validation. αFFase1${\alpha }\rm{FFase1}$ converts inulobiose into difructose dianhydride I, one component of caramel, through two steps: a rate‐limiting glycosylation (with a rare sugar ring flip) followed by a cyclization step, guided by residues E85, K147, and N226.

The energy level diagrams for the ν(C═O) and the δ(N─H) vibrations, resulting of combining in‐phase and out‐of‐phase modes on the basis of their local symmetries, was built by applying the exciton coupling theory to a new class of chiral macrocycles, based on the 2,5‐diaminoterephthalate scaffold.

Carboxylate–Probase Catalyzed Favorskii Reaction
Stronger together: A combination of a carboxylate catalyst and a silylating agent generates a stronger base catalyst for a metal‐free catalytic addition of alkynes to aldehydes and ketones under chemoselective, O‐silylative conditions. The reaction is proposed to proceed via quaternary ammonium (Q+) cation – acetylide anion ion pairs, with chiral ...

Hidden in Plain Sight: Aromaticity of Hexagonal Boron Nitride
How apt is the nickname “white graphene” for hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)? Although graphene's aromaticity is well established, it is not known if hBN is aromatic. In this work, hBN's aromaticity is probed using magnetic and energetic criteria. Group‐theoretic considerations and magnetically induced current density maps are used to further reveal the ...
