Electrochemical 1,2-Alkylarylation of Styrenes with Malonates and -Heteroarenes via Direct C(sp)-H/C(sp)-H Functionalization.

A general and atom-economical electrochemical dehydrogenative method for the intermolecular 1,2-alkylarylation of styrenes with malonates and nucleophilic -heteroarenes (including indoles and pyrroles) has been developed. This transformation provides a regioselective route to construct highly valuable 1,1-diarylalkanes enabled by C(sp)-H/C(sp)-H functionalization under mild conditions, and H is the only theoretical byproduct. Mechanistic studies indicated that the reaction proceeded through the oxidative of the C(sp)-H bond to generate alkyl radical, radical addition across the C═C bond, single electron oxidation and C(sp)-H functionalization cascades.

Highly Thermally Conductive Liquid Crystalline Epoxy Resin Vitrimers with Reconfigurable, Shape-Memory, Photo-Thermal, and Closed-Loop Recycling Performance.

The low thermal conductivity, poor toughness, and non-reprocessability of thermosetting epoxy resins severely restrict their applications and sustainable development in flexible electronics. Herein, liquid crystalline epoxy (LCE) and dynamic ester and disulfide bonds are introduced into the cured network of bisphenol A epoxy resin (E-51) to construct highly thermally conductive flexible liquid crystalline epoxy resin (LCER) vitrimers. LCER vitrimers demonstrate adjustable mechanical properties by varying the ratio of LCE to E-51, allowing it to transition from soft to strong.

Background And Purpose: Different types of physical training can lead to changes in brain activity and function, and these changes can vary depending on the type of training. However, it remains unclear whether there are commonalities in how different types of training affect brain activity and function. The purpose of this study is to compare the brain activity states of professional athletes with those of ordinary university students and to explore the relationship between training and differences in brain activity states.

Excellent Low-Frequency Microwave Absorption and High Thermal Conductivity in Polydimethylsiloxane Composites Endowed by Hydrangea-Like CoNi@BN Heterostructure Fillers.

The advancement of thin, lightweight, and high-power electronic devices has increasingly exacerbated issues related to electromagnetic interference and heat accumulation. To address these challenges, a spray-drying-sintering process is employed to assemble chain-like CoNi and flake boron nitride (BN) into hydrangea-like CoNi@BN heterostructure fillers. These fillers are then composited with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to develop CoNi@BN/PDMS composites, which integrate low-frequency microwave absorption and thermal conductivity.
