An 11-year-old girl underwent a laparoscopic upper-to-lower moiety ureteropyelostomy for lower moiety pelviureteric junction obstruction associated with Y ureteric duplication. She presented with left flank pain and was noted to be hypertensive with microscopic haematuria on admission. An abdominal ultrasound scan revealed a duplex left kidney with gross lower moiety pelvicalyceal dilatation. A subsequent MAG-3 scan demonstrated reduced differential function in the left lower moiety. A laparoscopic transmesocolic approach confirmed a dilated lower moiety pelvis and revealed the Y ureteric duplication. An upper to lower moiety ureteropyelostomy and insertion of a JJ stent is described in the accompanying video. The child was discharged home on the second day post operation. Postoperative imaging showed good decompression and improved differential function. The child has been completely well and normotensive at 2 years' follow-up.

Given that stomach cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death, there is a need to develop new drugs. Among various methods, metal-based coordination compounds are considered as an efficient strategy against this type of cancer. Similarly, the benzimidazole moiety plays a crucial role in biology; thus, various benzimidazole-based compounds have been found to be active as potential anticancer drugs and are currently used in clinical trials.

The difluoromethyl group is a crucial fluorinated moiety with distinctive biological properties, and the synthesis of chiral CF₂H-containing analogs has been recognized as a powerful strategy in drug design. To date, the most established method for accessing enantioenriched difluoromethyl compounds involves the enantioselective functionalization of nucleophilic and electrophilic CF₂H synthons. However, this approach is limited by lower reactivity and reduced enantioselectivity.

A series of luminescent bis-cyclometalated iridium complexes with 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine (tpy), [Ir()(tpy)]PF ( = 2-phenylpyridinate (ppy) for ; benzo[h]quinolinate (bzq) for ; 1-phenylisoquinolinate (piq) for ; and 2-phenylbenzothiazolate (pbt) for ), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that the tpy ligands of - are coordinated to the iridium center in a bidentate fashion, and the uncoordinated pendant pyridine rings in the tpy ligands of - form intramolecular π-π stacking interactions with a phenyl moiety of ligands. In addition, the pendant pyridine ring in the tpy ligand of forms an intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction, unlike in -.

Background: Carbosulfan (CBS) is a widely used carbamate pesticide in agricultural production, its easy decomposition into hypertoxic carbofuran poses serious threats to human health and food safety. Therefore, sensitive and accurate detection of CBS is of significant importance. Conventional chromatography-based techniques require expensive instruments and complicated sample pretreatment, limiting their application for fast detection.

Pendant organic chromophores have been used to improve the photocatalytic performance of many metal-based photosensitizers, particularly in first-row metals, by increasing π conjugation in ligands and lowering the energy of the photoactive absorption band. Using a combination of spectroscopic studies and computational modeling, we rationalize the excited state dynamics of a Co(III) complex containing pendant pyrene moieties, , where = 1,1'-(4-(pyren-1-yl)pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazol-3-ium). displays higher visible absorptivity, and blue luminescence from pyrene singlet excited states compared with [ = 1,1'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazol-3-ium)] in which the pyrene moiety is absent.
