Compound 1, [Cu11(μ9-Br)(μ3-Br)3{S2P(O(i)Pr)2}6](+), containing the first μ9-bromide at the center of a pentacapped trigonal-prismatic copper skeleton, was isolated from the reaction of [Cu(CH3CN)4](PF6), NH4[S2P(O(i)Pr)2], and Bu4NBr in 11:6:4 ratios in methanol. Treatment of 1 with Bu4NI resulted in a complete replacement of four bromides to yield a corresponding iodo analogue {Cu11(I)(I)3[S2P(O(i)Pr)2]6}(+), 2. The central bromide and iodide in 1 and 2 can be replaced by a sulfide generated in situ from Na2S2O3 to produce [Cu11(μ9-S)(μ3-X)3{S2P(O(i)Pr)2}6] (X = Br, 3; I, 4). All four compounds displayed interesting photoluminescent properties.

Tigecycline (Tgc), a third-generation tetracycline is found as the last line of defense against multi-drug resistant bacteria. Recent increased rate of resistance to tgc, a human-restricted agent among animal bacteria poses a significant global health challenge. Overuse of first generation tetracyclines (Tet) and phenicols in animals have been suggested to be associated with Tgc resistance development.

ConspectusThe advancement of synthetic methodologies is fundamentally driven by a deeper understanding of the structure-reactivity relationships of reactive key intermediates. Carbyne anions are compounds featuring a monovalent anionic carbon possessing four nonbonding valence electrons, which were historically confined to theoretical constructs or observed solely within the environment of gas-phase studies. These species possess potential for applications across diverse domains of synthetic chemistry and ancillary fields.

Na superionic conductor (NASICON)-structure NaMnV(PO) (NVMP) electrode materials reveal highly attractive application prospects due to ultrahigh energy density originating from two-electron reactions. Nevertheless, NVMP also encounters challenges with its poor electronic conductivity, Mn dissolution, and Jahn-Teller distortion. To address this issue, utilizing N-doped carbon layers and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for dual encapsulation enhances the material's electronic conductivity, creating an effective electron transport network that promotes the rapid diffusion and storage of Na.

It is highly required to rationally design fluorescent probes a molecular engineering strategy with desired analytical performance for applications in sensing and imaging. Reaction-based fluorescent probes for highly selective sensing of cysteine (Cys) are mainly based on the participation of Cys in reactions such as, addition-cyclization with acrylates, cyclization with aldehydes, coordination displacement, Michael addition reactions, and cleavage reactions. Cys-triggered reactions with the O atoms of ether bonds has also been used to construct reaction-based fluorescent probes based on the substitution of the ether with the nucleophilic thiolate of Cys.

Rabies is a deadly neurotropic, zoonotic disease with a mortality rate of 100% after symptoms appear. Rabies virus (RABV) is the primary cause of rabies disease in humans, and it mainly spreads via dog bites in developing countries. Over the course of RABV evolution, multiple RABV variants, called clades, have emerged.
