Electrochemical-repaired porous graphene membranes for precise ion-ion separation

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Kangning Zhao, Heng-Yu Chi, Kuang-Jung Hsu, Mojtaba Chevalier, Yueqing Shen, Shuqing Song, Zongyao Zhou

The preparation of atom-thick porous lattice hosting & Aring;-scale pores is attractive to achieve a large ion-ion selectivity in combination with a large ion flux. Graphene film is an ideal selective layer for this if high-precision pores can be incorpora ...

The fundamental relation between electrohelicity and molecular optical activity

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

Electrohelicity arises in molecules such as allene and spiropentadiene when their symmetry is reduced and helical frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) appear. Such molecules are optically active and electrohelicity has been suggested as a possible design prin ...

Supramolecular Modifications of Semicrystalline Polymers

Michael Alan Giffin

Supramolecular interactions play an important role in defining the structure and the resulting mechanical properties of materials. For instance, interchain hydrogen-bonding in PAs gives them superior strength and stiffness in engineering materials, while t ...

Ni-Based Nanoparticles Catalyzed Hydrodeoxygenation of Ketones, Ethers, and Phenols to (Cyclo) Aliphatic Compounds

Paul Joseph Dyson, Yelin Hu, Mingyang Liu

Catalytic hydrodeoxygenation is of prime importance in the valorization of biomass-based feedstocks to produce essential chemicals and fuels. To carry out this process in a more cost-effective and sustainable manner, the use of 3D-metal-based nanostructure ...

Grand canonical Brownian dynamics simulations of adsorption and self-assembly of SAS-6 rings on a surface

Pierre Gönczy, Niccolo Banterle

The Spindle Assembly Abnormal Protein 6 (SAS-6) forms dimers, which then self-assemble into rings that are critical for the nine-fold symmetry of the centriole organelle. It has recently been shown experimentally that the self-assembly of SAS-6 rings is st ...

Structure-property relationships and mixed conductivity in layered hybrid perovskites based on phenyl-derived spacers

Algirdas Ducinskas

Hybrid halide perovskites are currently one of the most studied semiconductors. However, due to poor intrinsic and extrinsic stability, further developments to commercialize devices based on hybrid halide perovskites are limited. Many different strategies ...

Helical versus linear Jahn-Teller distortions in allene and spiropentadiene radical cations

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Rubén Laplaza Solanas, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

The allene radical cation can be stabilized both by Jahn-Teller distortion of the bond lengths and by torsion of the end-groups. However, only the latter happens and the allene radical cation relaxes into a twisted D-2 symmetry structure with equal double- ...

New Vinylation and Alkynylation Strategies with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Diazo Compounds

Guillaume Dominique Pisella

The development of a sequential copper-catalyzed oxy-alkynylation/intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of allenes and arenes was investigated at first. This one-pot protocol allowed the construction of complex polycylic architectures with high efficiency fro ...

Helical electronic transitions of spiroconjugated molecules

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

The two pi-systems of allene can combine into helical molecular orbitals (MOs), yet the helicity is lost in the pi-pi* transitions due to excited state mixing. In spiroconjugated molecules the relative orientation of the two pi-systems is different and con ...

Covalent and Noncovalent Conjugation of Degradable Polymer Nanoparticles to T Lymphocytes

Harm-Anton Klok, Tanja Thomsen

Cells are attractive as carriers that can help to enhance control over the biodistribution of polymer nanomedicines. One strategy to use cells as carriers is based on the cell surface immobilization of the nanoparticle cargo. While a range of strategies ca ...

Diamine Synthesis via the Nitrogen-Directed Azidation of sigma- and pi-C-C Bonds

Jérôme Waser, Mingming Wang

Diamines are essential building blocks for the synthesis of agrochemicals, drugs, and organic materials, yet their synthesis remains challenging, as both nitrogens need to be differentiated and diverse substitution patterns (1,2, 1,3, or 1,4) are required. ...
