An overview of the production and use of toxin.

The widespread utilization of traditional chemical pesticides has given rise to numerous negative impacts, leading to a surge in interest in exploring environmentally friendly alternatives. (Bt), a bacterium renowned for its insecticidal properties, produces proteins during its lifecycle. These proteins have distinct advantages over traditional chemical pesticides, including higher environmental safety, broader insecticidal spectra, and lower pesticide residues.

Redox-Neutral α-Arylation of Alkyl Nitriles with Aryl Sulfoxides: A Rapid Electrophilic Rearrangement.

A facile α-arylation of nitriles has been developed by simply introducing TfO and DABCO to the mixture of nitriles and aryl sulfoxides. The transformation consists of two sequential steps: (i) TfO-initiated electrophilic assembly and and (ii) DABCO-triggered rearrangement. Each step can be tuned independently by changing the temperature and/or base.
