Low-temperature STM observations of the low-coverage chemisorption behavior of iodobenzene on Cu(110) are presented at two annealing temperatures. When a random distribution of isolated iodobenzene molecules deposited at T < 100 K is annealed to approximately 170 K, the undissociated molecules assemble into chainlike clusters composed of identical subunits. An STM tip-induced dissociation reaction is used to determine that the individual units in the chains are composed of pairs of iodobenzene molecules. A model is proposed in which iodine atoms on each member of the pair are directed toward one another. The driving force for the formation of such clusters is suggested to be the dispersion interactions between the polarizable iodobenzene molecules.

The rapid reaction between lead iodide (PbI) and formamidinium iodide (FAI) complicates the fabrication of high-quality formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI) films. Conventional methods, such as using nonvolatile small molecular additives to slow the reaction, often result in buried interfacial voids and molecule diffusion, compromising the devices' operational stability. In this study, we introduced a molecular "thruster"-a hypervalent iodine (III) compound with three carbonyl groups and a C-I bond-that possesses coordination and dissociation abilities, enabling programed modulation of perovskite-film growth kinetics.

Metathesis reactions that operate cleanly and reversibly under biocompatible conditions are crucial in diverse fields such as drug development, chemical biology, and dynamic combinatorial chemistry. This paper introduces an innovative strategy using the commercially available and cost-effective hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodobenzene (HTIB) as a radical initiator, enabling clean and bidirectional disulfide metathesis under biocompatible conditions. Our method facilitates efficient forward reactions by utilizing an excess of one disulfide to shift the equilibrium toward unsymmetrical disulfides, while also ensuring clean reverse reactions by the removal of low boiling point dimethyl disulfide.

Herein, we report a AgF-mediated regio- and stereoselective acetoxyselenylation of terminal/internal alkynes from iodobenzene dicarboxylate [PhI(OCOR)] and diorganyl diselenides via multiple-site functionalization to afford β-selenyl enol esters in good yields. Alkynes derived from bioactive molecules, such as l(-)-borneol, l-menthol, and acyne oxalate, are also suitable for this transformation and afford the expected compounds.

In this work, we applied commercially available 2-pyridinecarboxylic acid to modify cellulose by simple manipulations, and then anchored low-toxicity metal nickel onto the modified cellulose to prepare the heterogeneous catalyst (CL-AcPy-Ni). The obtained catalyst was characterized by FT-IR, TG-DSC, BET, XRD, SEM-EDS, ICP-OES, XPS, and GPC. The catalytic performance of CL-AcPy-Ni in the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction was investigated using 4-methyl iodobenzene and phenylboronic acid as the model substrates reacting in THF under 120 °C for 24 h.

Activating dihydrogen, H, is a challenging endeavor typically achieved using transition metal centers. Pure main-group compounds capable of this are rare and have emerged in recent decades. These systems rely on synergistic donor-acceptor interactions with H's antibonding σ* and bonding σ orbital.
