Four new halogenated monoterpene aldehydes (1-4) have been isolated from the South African marine red alga Plocamium corallorhiza, along with the known compounds 4,6-dibromo-1,1-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-2E,7-octadiene (5) and 1,4,8-tribromo-3,7-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-1E,5E-octadiene (10). The structures of the new compounds were determined by interpretation of their spectroscopic data and synthesis and mass spectrometric analysis of their pentafluorobenzyloxime (PFBO) derivatives.

Article Synopsis
- Limonene, often found in personal care and cleaning products, is becoming a significant indoor air pollutant linked to increased reactive chlorine species during disinfecting processes.
- The study explores how chlorinated limonene peroxy radicals (Cl-lim-RO•) react, shedding light on their transformation products and the potential for forming hazardous secondary organic aerosols.
- Findings reveal that these transformation products are more toxic than limonene itself, raising health concerns for people exposed to both cleaning agents and disinfectants.

The development of nontoxic antifouling coatings in static marine environments is urgent. Herein, the successful synthesis of sulfobetaine borneol fluorinated polymers (PEASBF) by a free radical polymerization method is reported. The PEASBF coatings exhibit outstanding antifouling activity, which effectively resists the adhesion of (FITC-BSA adhesion rate: 0.

Introduction: Chlorfenapyr, a N-substituted halogenated pyrrole, is a broad-spectrum insecticide. The insecticidal activity of chlorfenapyr depends on its biotransformation by hepatic cytochrome P450 monooxygenases to tralopyril, which uncouples mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and disrupts adenosine triphosphate production. Neither the metabolism of chlorfenapyr nor the mechanism of tralopyril is completely elucidated.
