Introduction: In high-stakes environments such as aviation, monitoring cognitive, and mental health is crucial, with electroencephalogram (EEG) data emerging as a keytool for this purpose. However traditional methods like linear models Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) architectures often struggle to capture the complex, non-linear temporal dependencies in EEG signals. These approaches typically fail to integrate multi-scale features effectively, resulting in suboptimal health intervention decisions, especially in dynamic, high-pressure environments like pilot training.

Selective C-F bond activation through a radical pathway in the presence of multiple C-H bonds remains a formidable challenge, owing to the extraordinarily strong bond strength of the C-F bond. By the aid of density functional theory calculations, we disclose an innovative concerted electron-fluoride transfer mechanism, harnessing the unique reactivity of Lewis base-boryl radicals to selectively activate the resilient C-F bonds in fluoroalkanes. This enables the direct abstraction of a fluorine atom and subsequent generation of an alkyl radical, thus expanding the boundaries of halogen atom transfer reactions.

This study aimed to elucidate the prognostic implications of deviant expressions of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) p53 upregulated regulator of p53 levels (PURPL), microRNA-363-3p (miR-363-3p), and ADAM metallopeptidase domain 10 (ADAM10) in patients diagnosed with ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OSC). To predict and refine the targeted miRNAs and downstream target genes for PURPL, we utilized open medical databases. Through the employment of real-time RT-PCR, we conducted tissue analysis to discern the expressions of PURPL, miR-363-3p, and ADAM10 in both OSC and control tissues.

The development of aryl alkyl sulfides as dichotomous electrophiles for site-selective silylation via C-S bond cleavage has been achieved. Iron-catalyzed selective cleavage of C(aryl)-S bonds can occur in the presence of β-diketimine ligands, and the cleavage of C(alkyl)-S bonds can be achieved by t-BuONa without the use of transition metals, resulting in the corresponding silylated products in moderate to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies suggest that Fe-Si species may undergo metathesis reactions during the cleavage of C(aryl)-S bonds, while silyl radicals are involved during the cleavage of C(alkyl)-S bonds.

Kisspeptins are neuropeptides encoded by the gene, and little is known about them outside the vertebrate lineage. Two kisspeptin-type neuropeptides (KPs) have been discovered in (AjK1 and AjK2), an edible sea cucumber, and have been linked to reproductive and metabolic regulation. In this study, we evaluated how KPs affected locomotor behavior in one control group and two treatment groups (AjK1 and AjK2).

The development of environment-friendly, step economic couplings to generate structurally diverse macrocyclic compounds is highly desirable but poses a marked challenge. Inspired by the C-H oxidation mechanism of cytochromes P450, an unprecedented and practical Rh -catalyzed acylmethylation macrocyclization via C-H/O dual activation has been developed by us. The process of macrocyclization is facilitated by a synergic coordination from pyridine and ester group.

Heavier main-group element-catalyzed reactions provide an increasingly attractive tool to perform transformations mimicking the behaviors of transition metal catalysts. Recently, Magre and Cornella reported a Bi-catalyzed synthesis of aryl sulfonyl fluorides, which involves a fundamental organometallic step of SO insertion into the Bi-Ph bond. Our theoretical studies reveal that i) the ability of hypervalent coordination of the Bi(III) center allows facile coordination sphere expansion for the SO coordination via one oxygen atom; and ii) the high polarity of the Bi-Ph bond makes the Ph migration from the Bi(III) center feasible.

The choice of backbone linker for two -bis-(9-borafluorene)s has a great influence on the LUMO located at the boron centers and, therefore, the reactivity of the respective compounds. Herein, we report the room temperature rearrangement of 1,2-bis-(9-borafluorenyl)--carborane, CBH-1,2-[B(CH)] ([2a]) featuring -carborane as the inorganic three-dimensional backbone and the synthesis of 1,2-bis-(9-borafluorenyl)benzene, CH-1,2-[B(CH)] (2b), its phenylene analog. DFT calculations on the transition state for the rearrangement support an intramolecular C-H bond activation process an SAr-like mechanism in [2a], and predicted that the same rearrangement would take place in 2b, but at elevated temperatures, which indeed proved to be the case.

The transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction with Fischer metal carbene intermediates bearing an electron-rich alkoxyl or siloxyl group remains a big challenge due to the lack of readily available corresponding carbene precursors. Herein, we report the coupling of alkynes with the Fischer-type copper carbene species bearing a α-siloxyl group, which could be in situ generated from acylsilanes catalytically under photoirradiation and redox-neutral conditions. The side-arm modified bisoxazoline (SaBox) ligands prove to be crucial for this coupling reaction, which provides the corresponding alkynyl alcohol in high yields with remarkable heterocycle tolerance and broad substrate scope.

Soil salinization is one of the major factors restricting crop growth and agricultural production worldwide. Recretohalophytes have developed unique epidermal structures in their aboveground tissues, such as salt glands or salt bladders, to secrete excess salt out of the plant body as a protective mechanism from ion damage. Three hypotheses were proposed to explain how salt glands secrete salts: the osmotic hypothesis, a hypothesis similar to animal fluid transport, and vesicle-mediated exocytosis.

Despite the long history of research in transition metal (TM) complexes, the study of TM-aluminyl complexes is still in its early stage of development. It is expected that the presence of an electropositive Al donor atom would open up new possibilities in TM complex reactivity, and indeed TM-aluminyl has shown an early sign of success in small-molecule activation. On the other hand, the existing reports on TM-aluminyl reactivity are often explained to readers with different understanding on individual cases, and a general picture of TM-aluminyl reactivity is still not available.
