A new deep-blue emitting and highly fluorescent anthracene (ANTH) derivative containing perfluorobenzyl (Bn) groups, 9,10-ANTH(Bn), was synthesized in a single step reaction of ANTH or ANTH(Br) with BnI, using either a high-temperature Cu-/NaSO-promoted reaction or via a room-temperature photochemical reaction. Its structure was elucidated by NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The latter revealed no π-π interaction between neighboring ANTH cores.

Outside of a few model systems and selected taxa, the insertion of transgenes and regeneration of modified plants are difficult or impossible. This is a major bottleneck both for biotechnology and scientific research with many important species. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation (AMT) remains the most common approach to insert DNA into plant cells, and is also an important means to stimulate regeneration of organized tissues.

Cities across the United States are affected by climate change impacts, and several cities have adopted climate adaptation plans to respond to this growing threat. These plans outline interventions that require a multi-skilled workforce working towards "green" or sustainable goals. However, the "green jobs" linked to these goals are ill-defined and misunderstood among employers and job seekers and can cause gaps in implementing the interventions outlined in the climate adaptation plans.
