Novel coumarin-triphenyliminophosphorane (TPIPP) fluorophores, synthesized via a nonhydrolytic Staudinger reaction, exhibit remarkable redox-responsive optical properties. Upon chemical and electrochemical oxidation, these compounds display a hypsochromic shift in absorption from 430 to 350 nm, accompanied by up to 11-fold fluorescence enhancement under 405 nm excitation. The fluorescence switching occurs at an electrochemical oxidation potential of approximately +2.

The electrochemistry and spectroelectrochemistry of Ru(porphyrin)(NO)(phenoxide) complexes Ru(por)(NO)(OPh) (por = OEP, 1a; TAP, 2a; Ph = CH), Ru(por)(NO)(OAr) (por = OEP, 1b; TAP, 2b; OAr = -OCH-(2-NHC(O)CF)), Ru(por)(NO)(OAr) (por = OEP, 1c; TAP, 2c; OAr = OCH-(2,6-NHC(O)CF); OEP = octaethylporphyrinato dianion, TAP = tetraanisolylporphyrinato dianion) indicate that initial one-electron oxidation results in structure-dependent net reactivity at the phenoxide ligand. Oxidation of 1a generates 1a+, which undergoes a relatively slow rate-limiting second-order follow-up reaction. In contrast, 2a undergoes a diffusion-limited follow-up reaction after oxidation.

This species was found to undergo rapid and selective intramolecular aliphatic C-H bond activation to yield a phosphinoborenium cation, which undergoes facile deprotonation to give a cyclic base-stabilized phosphaborene. Computational investigation of the mechanism of C-H activation indicates a boron-centred activation route with an exceptionally low barrier of 8 kJ mol-1, followed by a nearly barrierless hydride migration from boron to phosphorus.

The trimeric intracellular cation channel B (TRIC-B), encoded by TMEM38B, is a potassium (K) channel present in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, where it counterbalances calcium (Ca) exit. Lack of TRIC-B activity causes a recessive form of the skeletal disease osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), namely OI type XIV, characterized by impaired intracellular Ca flux and defects in osteoblast (OB) differentiation and activity. Taking advantage of the OB-specific Tmem38b knockout mouse (Runx2Cre;Tmem38b; cKO), we investigated how the ion imbalance affects the osteogenetic process.

Free radical-initiated peptide sequencing (FRIPS) is a tandem mass spectrometry technique (MS/MS) that enables radical-based dissociation on instruments only capable of collisional activation. In FRIPS, peptides are chemically-derivatized with a compound that undergoes homolytic cleavage and generates radicals upon collisional activation. These radicals then propagate through the peptide backbone enabling the sequencing of peptide ions.
