The 2D NMR-guided computer program COCON can be extremely valuable for the constitutional analysis of unknown compounds, if its results are evaluated by neural network-assisted 13C NMR chemical shift and substructure analyses. As instructive examples, data sets of four differently complex marine natural products were thoroughly investigated. As a significant step towards a true automated structure elucidation, it is shown that the primary COCON output can be safely diminished to less than 1% of its original size without losing the correct structural proposal.

An organomagnesium complex containing an imino-phosphanamidinate ligand was found to be a competent catalyst for the ROP of -LA and ε-CL as well as their copolymerization sequential addition of monomers, resulting in the formation of PCL--PLA diblock copolymer. The polymers obtained were characterized by H, C, DOSY NMR, DSC, TGA, POM, and SEM.

Noncovalent carbon bonding (C-bonding), a recently explored σ-hole interaction, has primarily been characterized through X-ray structural and computational studies. Evidence of C-bonds in solution is scarce, especially in highly polar solvents like DMSO where solvation effects typically overshadow weak non-covalent interactions. In this work, we present three novel spiroisatin-based -acyl hydrazones (1-3) in which C-bonds play a critical role in stabilizing the conformation in solution.

Wood modification using low molecular weight thermosetting resins improves the biological durability and dimensional stability of wood while avoiding increasingly regulated biocides. During the modification process, resin monomers diffuse from the cell lumen to the cell wall, occupying micropore spaces before curing at 150 °C. This study investigated the mechanism of cell wall diffusion at multiple scales, comparing two test groups where diffusion was either facilitated or restricted.

Water-lean absorbents are regarded as a new generation of post-combustion CO2 capture technology that could significantly relieve those drawbacks posed by traditional aqueous alkanolamines. However, the exponential increase in viscosity during CO2 absorption remains an urgent issue that needs to be resolved before their practical deployment. In this work, novel water-lean amines based on biomass glycerol have been devised as single-component CO2 absorbents with low viscosity (79~110 cP at 25 oC, 29~39 cP at 40 oC) under high capacity (12~18 wt% at 25 oC, 10~17 wt% at 40 oC).
