Fractionation of the ethanolic extract of the stem bark of Morus macroura resulted in the isolation of four new Diels-Alder type adducts, named guangsangons K--N (1, 2, 5, 6), together with two known compounds, mulberrofuran G (3) and K (4). Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and chemical methods. Furthermore, by means of (1)H-NMR variable temperature experiments and the Cotton curves in the circular dichroism (CD) spectra, the stereochemistry of four new compounds was elucidated. The isolated new compounds showed good activity on anti-oxidant in vitro, with the inhibitory rates of MDA being from 91.8 to 100.0% at concentrations of 10(-5) mol/l.

In this study, we extended a previously developed one-pot double derivatization reaction to establish the first routine isotope-coded multiplex derivatization for vitamin D and its metabolites for application in clinical environments, using commercial reagents, without the need for specialized reagents and advanced synthesis requirements. The original derivatization process consisted of using both a Cookson-type reagent and derivatization of hydroxyl groups. Initially, the analytes are derivatized by a Diels-Alder reaction using 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD), followed by acetylation using acetic anhydride, catalyzed by 4-dimethylaminopyridine at room temperature.

A new type of pH-sensitive hydrogel containing supramolecular structures was fabricated from maleimide-functionalized polyrotaxane, ɛ-polylysine and furan-functionalized hyaluronic acid by Diels-Alder reaction and amino-maleimide reaction. Firstly, pseudo polyrotaxane was obtained through self-assembly of polyethylene glycol and α-cyclodextrin, and then capped with 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid to convert it into polyrotaxane. Secondly, a maleimide-functionalized slidable crosslinker was obtained by modifying the polyrotaxane with 3-maleimide propionic acid, and furan-functionalized hyaluronic acid was prepared by modifying it with 2-furanmethylamine.

Developing a single-component epoxy system is challenging but crucial for advanced thermoset applications. Unfortunately, conventional latent curing agents using chemical or physical passivation do not provide satisfactory storage stability and the necessary property requirements. Here, it is demonstrated that all-in-one epoxy/MXene nanocomposite system, comprising epoxy resin, polymeric imidazole latent curing agent beads (PILCAB), and TiCT MXene, exhibits excellent storage stability, improved flame retardancy, and enhanced mechanical strength.

Nanoparticles (NPs) as drug delivery platforms encounter numerous obstacles on their journey from administration to the target site. Often, diametrically opposing particle properties are desirable to overcome biological and physical barriers. Therefore, stimuli-responsive NPs have been developed to allow for specific particle adaptation.
