The first representative of 1,5-diaza-3,7-diphosphacyclooctanes (1) with chiral L-menthyl substituents on the phosphorus atoms was obtained by condensation of L-menthylphosphine with formaldehyde and p-toluidine. This optically active cyclic bisphosphine readily forms a stable P,P-complex with borane (2) and P,P-chelate complexes with platinum(II) (3) and palladium(II) dichloride (4). The structure of the bisphosphine 1 in solution was elucidated by employing a variety of 1D/2D NMR correlation experiments, and the molecular structure of complex 3 was studied by X-ray crystallography.

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has emerged as a promising technology for neutralizing microbes, including multidrug-resistant strains. This study investigates CAP's potential as an alternative to traditional antimicrobial drugs for microbial inactivation. In the era of increasing antimicrobial resistance, there is a persistent need for alternative antimicrobial strategies.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a semiconductor used in quantum information processing, microelectromechanical systems, photonics, power electronics, and harsh environment sensors. However, its high-temperature stability, high breakdown voltage, wide bandgap, and high mechanical strength are accompanied by a chemical inertness, which makes complex micromachining difficult. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) etching is a simple, rapid means of wet processing SiC, including the use of dopant-selective etch stops that take advantage of the mature SiC homoepitaxy.

Due to their strong aromaticity and difficulties in chemo-, regio-, and enantioselectivity control, asymmetric hydrogenation of naphthol derivatives to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthols has remained a long-standing challenge. Herein, we report the first example of homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation of naphthol derivatives catalyzed by tethered rhodium-diamine catalysts, affording a wide array of optically pure 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthols in high yields with excellent regio-, chemo-, and enantioselectivities (up to 98% yield and >99% ee). Mechanistic studies with experimental and computational approaches reveal that fluorinated solvent 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) plays vital roles in the control of reactivity and selectivity, and 1-naphthol is reduced via a cascade reaction pathway, including dearomative tautomerization, 1,4-hydride addition, and 1,2-hydride addition in sequence.

Purpose: To investigate whether in diabetic cataract (DC), FoxO1 regulates high glucose (HG)-induced activation of NLRC4/IL-6 inflammatory mediators in human lens epithelial cells (SRA01/04) via the JAK1/STAT1 pathway, leading to cataract formation.
Methods: Expression levels of FoxO1, inflammatory factor IL-6 and inflammatory vesicle NLRC4 were examined in SRA01/04 under high glucose (HG) stress at 25-150 mM. Rat lenses were also cultured using HG medium with or without the addition of the FoxO1 inhibitor AS1842856 and the JAK1 agonist RO8191.

Bacteria have the potential to exhibit divergent stereochemical preferences for different levels of chiral structures, including from molecule, supramolecule, to nanomicroscale helical structure. Accordingly, the structure-activity relationship between chirality and bactericidal activity remains uncertain. In this study, we seek to understand the multivalent molecular chirality effect of chiral supramolecular polymers on antibacterial activity.
