Single crystals of caesium tantalate(V), Cs(10)Ta(29.27)O(78), were obtained as a serendipitous product in a welded tantalum ampoule by a blank reaction of CsBr and bis-muth subnitrate [Bi(5)O(OH)(9)(NO(3))(4)] with the container material. The crystal structure of the title compound is made up of a three-dimensional framework constituted by two types of layers, viz. (Ta(6)O(15))(n) and (Ta(3)O(9))(n), parallel to (001), which are linked together by TaO(6) octa-hedra (3m. symmetry) along [001]. This framework has cavities where three independent Cs(+) ions (3m. and m2 symmetry, respectively) are located. The compound reveals a Ta deficiency at one trigonal prismatic coordinated site (m2 symmetry). The composition of the title compound was verified by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis of single crystals.

Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) are promising materials for radiation detection. Compared with polycrystalline films, single crystals (SCs) have lower defect density, higher carrier mobility, and lifetime. However, the direct synthesis of MHP SCs for large-area flat panel imaging detectors remains challenging.

β-Addition products are common in conjugate addition reactions consisting of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. Here, we are reporting an uncommon α-addition product as a major product in the thioacetic acid conjugate addition reaction on a peptide consisting of ()-α,β-unsaturated γ-amino acids. In addition, we observed highly diastereoselective β-addition products from the thiophenol and thioethanol conjugate addition reaction on peptides.

The separation of C cyclic hydrocarbons (benzene, cyclohexene, and cyclohexane) is one of the most challenging chemical processes in the petrochemical industry. Herein, we design and synthesize a new SOD-topology metal azolate framework (MAF) with aperture gating behaviour controlled by C-Br⋯N halogen bonds, which exhibits distinct temperature- and guest-dependent adsorption behaviours for benzene/cyclohexene/cyclohexane. More importantly, the MAF enables the efficient purification of benzene from its binary and ternary mixtures (selectivity up to 113 ± 2; purity up to 98% +), which is the highest record for benzene/cyclohexane/cyclohexene separation to date.

The treatment of gout aims to reduce serum uric acid (sUA) levels by administering urate-lowering therapies (ULT) such as xanthine oxidase inhibitors (XOI: allopurinol, febuxostat) or uricosurics (e.g.
