The binary phase diagram of N(2)-Ne mixtures has been measured at 296 K by visual observation and Raman spectroscopy. The topology of the phase diagram points to the existence of the stoichiometric compound N(2))(6)Ne(7). Its structure has been solved by single-crystal synchrotron x-ray diffraction. The N(2) molecules form a guest lattice that hosts the Ne atoms. This insertion compound can be viewed as a clathrate with the centers of the N(2) molecules forming distorted dodecahedron cages, each enclosing 14 Ne atoms. Remarkably, the N(2))(6)Ne(7) compound is somehow the first clathrate organized by the quadrupolar interaction.

Research on CO activation and homologation is pivotal for promoting sustainable chemistry and the construction of Cn molecular blocks. This work reports the nickel-catalyzed reduction of CO by magnesium alkyl compounds utilizing a bimetallic Mg/Ni synergistic strategy. The exposure of β-diketiminato ligand-supported magnesium monoalkyl compounds LMgR (L = [(DippNCMe)2CH]-, Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3; R = nBu, CH3, C5H9) to 1 bar of CO in the presence of 10 mol% Ni(COD)2 (COD: 1,5-cyclooctadiene) selectively afforded the CO single-insertion product [LMg(CHO)C5H8], the dimerization product [(LMg)2(μ-C2O2)(CH3)2], and the linear trimerization product [(LMg)2(μ-C3O3)(nBu)2], respectively, depending on the R group.

Despite recent advances in the inhibition of EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor), there remains a clinical need for new EGFR Exon20 insertion (Ex20Ins) inhibitors that spare EGFR WT. Herein, we report the discovery and optimization of two chemical series leading to ether and biaryl as potent, selective, and brain-penetrant inhibitors of Ex20Ins mutants. Building on our earlier discovery of alkyne which allowed access to CNS property space for an Ex20Ins inhibitor, we utilized structure-based design to move to lower lipophilicity and lower CL compounds while maintaining a WT selectivity margin.

A study of the reaction of [Ni(NHC)] synthons with the heterocumulene CS is reported. Nickel complexes of η-(C-S) coordinated CS, [Ni(NHC)(η-CS)] (NHC = IiPr (1a), IiPr (1b)) were obtained from the reaction of CS with precursors of [Ni(NHC)] (NHC = IiPr, IiPr). The result of this reaction critically depends on the NHC employed, as [Ni(IMes)], the complex of the sterically more demanding -aryl substituted NHC IMes, led to formation of the dinuclear complex [{Ni(IMes)(μ-CS)}] (2d).

We report the development of a stable, faithful, and robust luciferase-based reporter system for a model calicivirus, murine norovirus (MNoV). Genetic insertion of a HiBiT tag, an 11 amino acid fragment of nanolucifersase, at the junction of the nonstructural proteins NS4 and NS5 yields infectious virus.

Recently, nickel catalysts have garnered considerable attention for their efficacy and versatility in asymmetric catalysis, attributed to their distinctive properties. However, the use of cost-effective and sustainable divalent nickel catalysts in C-H activation/asymmetric alkene insertion poses significant challenges due to the intricate control of stereochemistry in the transformation of the tetracoordinate C-Ni(II) intermediate. Herein, we report a Ni(II)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H/N-H annulation with oxabicyclic alkenes.
