Combination of iron(III) chloride and diorganyl diselenides was used for cyclization of arylpropiolates and arylpropiolamides in formation of 3-organoselenyl-2H-coumarins and 3-organoselenyl-quinolinones, respectively. Systematic study to determine the ideal conditions revealed that the two substrates reacted in the same way using identical reaction conditions. The versatility of this method has been demonstrated by extension of the best reaction conditions to substrate having a variety of substituents. Analyses of the optimization reaction also showed that diorganyl diselenides have a dual role by acting as cycling agent and base to restore the aromatic system. Mechanistic investigation studies and analyses of the products obtained have revealed that the cyclization reactions follow an initial 6-endo-dig process to give the six-membered heterocycles without involving an intramolecular ipso-cyclization route.

Oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) stands as an attractive approach for the synthesis, engineering, and integration of conjugated polymers for advanced electronic and optoelectronic applications. In oCVD, the oxidant significantly influences the conformational and optoelectronic properties of the resulting conjugated polymer thin films. In this work, triflate salts of iron(III) and copper(II) (Fe(OTf) and Cu(OTf), respectively) are investigated for the first time as suitable alternative oxidants to the widely used iron(III) chloride (FeCl) for the oCVD of conjugated polymers.

Article Synopsis
- Iron-based single atom catalysts are seen as a cost-effective alternative to precious metals, but their electronic structures during catalysis are complex and difficult to model accurately.
- This research focuses on an iron porphyrin chloride complex on a graphene sheet, using density functional theory to analyze how the graphene layer alters the electronic structure.
- Findings reveal that weaker van der Waals forces govern the interaction between the iron complex and graphene, leading to minimal charge transfer; furthermore, various factors like ligand field, p-d hybridization, and correlation effects are crucial in determining the iron ion's spin state.

Article Synopsis
- Two iron-based compounds, FeTDPc and FeODPc, were synthesized and found to remain in a high-spin state when dissolved in various organic solvents, including chloroform and benzene.
- These compounds react with strong bases to form mono- and di-base complexes, which shift their spin states: mono-adducts become low-spin trivalent iron, while di-adducts are low-spin bivalent iron.
- When combined with specific electrolytes like tetrabutylammonium chloride, the compounds change from high-spin to low-spin states, but in solid form, a mixture of high-spin and intermediate-spin states is observed; interestingly, the iron(II) signals vanish when the compounds are isolated in pol

Article Synopsis
- Reducing the stages and energy costs in recycling is important for the environment; using deep eutectic solvents (DES) can improve traditional acid methods, making them safer and more eco-friendly.
- This study explores using DES, particularly Ethaline, in recycling silver from solar panels, achieving an impressive 99.9% leaching efficiency from silicon cell scraps at 75 °C.
- Results indicate that the concentration of iron(iii) chloride affects silver recovery kinetics, and high-quality silver can be electrodeposited under oxygen-free conditions at 50 °C after leaching.
