A versatile, high-yielding synthesis of NHC-stabilized [PCl(2)](+) and [PCl](2+) phosphorus synthons has been achieved by using an "onio-substituent transfer" reagent. Subsequent functionalization yields access to cationic cyano- and azido-substituted derivatives which represent first examples of a displacement reaction on NHC-stabilized phosphorus(III)-centered cations. The new salts have been fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography.

Despite extensive research on the use of salts to enhance micellar growth, numerous questions remain regarding the impact of ionic exchange and molecular structure on charge neutralization. This study looks into how certain cations (Na, Ca, and Mg) affect the structure of a cocamidopropyl betaine CAPB and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate SDBS surfactant mixture, aiming toward applications in targeted delivery systems. The mixture consists of a zwitterionic surfactant, cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), and an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS), combined in varying molar ratios at a total concentration of 200 mM.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive polymers are extensively used in cancer therapies. However, the ROS levels in the tumor microenvironment are often insufficient to trigger an adequate therapeutic response. Herein, we report a cinnamaldehyde ()-based ROS-responsive cationic polymer () and demonstrate its high efficiency in gene delivery and tumor cell growth inhibition.

Hydrogel-based sensors typically demonstrate conspicuous swelling behavior in aqueous environments, which can severely compromise the mechanical integrity and distort sensing signals, thereby considerably constraining their widespread applicability. Drawing inspiration from the multilevel heterogeneous structures in biological tissues, an antiswelling hydrogel sensor endowed with high strength, rapid self-recovery, and low swelling ratio was fabricated through a water-induced phase separation and coordination cross-linking strategy. A dense heterogeneous architecture was developed by the integration of "rigid" quadridentate carboxyl-Zr coordination bonds and "soft" hydrophobic unit-rich regions featuring π-π stacking and cation-π interactions into the hydrogels.

Wade's rules are a well-established tool for the description of the geometry of inorganic clusters. Among others, they state that a decrease or increase in charge is always accompanied by a change in the number of skeletal electron pairs (SEPs). This work reports the synthesis of the first cationic chalcogenaboranes closo-[12-X-2-IPr-1-EB11H10]BF4 (X = H, I; E = S, Se 3a/b, 4a/b) featuring the same SEP count as their neutral precursors, EB11H11, but bearing a positive charge.

Understanding the arrangement of ionic liquids at the interface and their interactions with the surface is crucial for enhancing selectivity in heterogeneous reactions for practical applications. In this study, we investigate the nature of the adsorption and structural orientations of a sulfonyl-based ionic liquid on platinum-based mono- and bimetallic (111) surfaces employing replica exchange molecular dynamics and first-principles density functional theory calculations. More than 30 confirmations of the ionic liquid are identified on both monometallic and bimetallic surfaces.
