[structure: see text] High level ab initio molecular orbital calculations confirm experimental indications that the effect of alkyl substituents (R = Me, Et, i-Pr, t-Bu) on R-X bond dissociation energies varies considerably according to the nature of X. A simple qualitative explanation in terms of valence-bond theory is presented, highlighting the increasing importance of the stabilization of R-X by the ionic R(+)X(-) configuration for electronegative X substituents (such as F, OH, and OCH(3)).

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on enhancing silicon-based sol-gel chemistry using photoprotected R-alkoxysilanes to create innovative silicon materials.
- Researchers investigated various aspects of synthesis, characterization, and light-triggered reactions using special photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs).
- The findings show successful photodeprotection and conversion of silanes into silanols, leading to polymer formation and potential applications in photolithography as light-controlled surface modifiers.

Half-lantern Pt(II) dinuclear complexes [{Pt(CN)(μ-SN)}] (HCN = 1-naphthalen-2-yl-1-pyrazole; R = H, HSN: 2-mercaptopyrimidine ; R = CF, HSN: 4-(trifluoromethyl)-2-mercaptopyrimidine ) were selectively obtained as single isomers with the CN groups in an -arrangement and rather short metallophilic interactions ( = 2.8684(2) Å for ). They reacted with haloforms in the air and sunlight to obtain the corresponding oxidized diplatinum(III) derivatives [{Pt(CN)(μ-SN)X}] (X = Cl (), Br (), I (, )).

The external electric field (E-field), which is an important stimulus, can change the decomposition mechanism and sensitivity of energetic materials. As a result, understanding the response of energetic materials to external E-fields is critical for their safe use. Motivated by recent experiments and theories, the two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) spectra of 3,4-bis (3-nitrofurazan-4-yl) furoxan (DNTF), which has a high energy, a low melting point, and comprehensive properties, were theoretically investigated.

Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are widely used in both academia and industry for the construction of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. The vast majority of cross-coupling reactions utilize aryl (pseudo)halides as the electrophilic coupling partner. Carboxylic acid derivatives (RC(O)X) represent a complementary class of electrophiles that can engage in decarbonylative couplings to produce analogous products.
