Photoredox/Cr-catalyzed enantioselective radical-polar crossover transformation via C-H functionalization.

Asymmetric multicomponent reactions that aim to control multiple chiral centers with high selectivity in a single step remain an on-gonging challenge. The realm of enantioselective radical-polar crossover transformation achieved through C-H Functionalization has yet to be fully explored. Herein, we present a successful description of a photoredox/Cr-catalyzed enantioselective three-component (hetero)arylalkylation of 1,3-dienes through C-H functionalization.

The impact of green low-carbon development on public health: a quasi-natural experimental study of low-carbon pilot cities in China.

Background: In recent years, climate change and environmental pollution have posed significant threats to public health. As environmental policies such as low-carbon city initiatives are progressively implemented, their role in enhancing public health has become a topic of growing interest. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between green low-carbon development and public health and to analyze the underlying mechanisms.

Carbon tax and low-carbon credit: Which policy is more beneficial to the capital-constrained manufacturer's remanufacturing activities?

Remanufacturing has attracted much attention for its enormous potential in resource recycling and low-carbon emission reduction. To investigate the effects of different government intervention policies on remanufacturing and carbon emissions, two profit maximization models of the capital-constrained manufacturer under carbon tax and low-carbon credit policies are constructed respectively. Then, through theoretical and numerical analyses, some significant findings are drawn: (1) Both carbon tax and low-carbon credit policies can encourage capital-constrained manufacturers to produce more remanufactured products, but which intervention policy is more advantageous also depends on the carbon emission cost of new products or financing cost of the remanufactured products.

Research on the Heterogeneity Threshold Effect of Foreign Direct Investment and Corporate Social Responsibility on Haze Pollution.

Carrying out environmental protection and governance in the process of using foreign capital to develop the economy is a realistic problem that China needs to solve urgently. In order to reduce environmental pollution, all enterprises are called upon by the local government to fulfil CSR and improve the quality of FDI use. However, previous studies have rarely explored the threshold effect of FDI and CSR on haze pollution.

MHTAN-DTI: Metapath-based hierarchical transformer and attention network for drug-target interaction prediction.

Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction can identify novel ligands for specific protein targets, and facilitate the rapid screening of effective new drug candidates to speed up the drug discovery process. However, the current methods are not sensitive enough to complex topological structures, and complicated relations between multiple node types are not fully captured yet. To address the above challenges, we construct a metapath-based heterogeneous bioinformatics network, and then propose a DTI prediction method with metapath-based hierarchical transformer and attention network for drug-target interaction prediction (MHTAN-DTI), applying metapath instance-level transformer, single-semantic attention and multi-semantic attention to generate low-dimensional vector representations of drugs and proteins.

Enhancement of the Electrical Properties in BaTiO3/PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 Ferroelectric Superlattices.

In this study, BaTiO3/Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (BTO/PZT) ferroelectric superlattices have been grown on the Nb-doped SrTiO3 (NSTO) single-crystal substrate by pulsed laser deposition, and their electrical properties were investigated in detail.

Fermi level shifting, charge transfer and induced magnetic coupling at La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/LaNiO3 interface.

A large magnetic coupling has been observed at the La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/LaNiO3 (LCMO/LNO) interface.

Microwave heating characteristic of multilayered structures in a single-mode cavity.

In this study, nonconductor (PZT), semiconductor (Si) and conductor (Pt/Ti) whose permittivity and permeability are distinctive are prepared into various multilayered structures for exploring the heating behavior of microwave (2.45 Hz) in a single-mode cavity. The heating efficiency of the semiconductor and conductor was much higher at the maximum of H field than that of E field.
