A transition metal free oxidative C-H bond functionalization/esterification of α-alkoxy alkanes with acids is described in this report. This method is effectively mediated by NCS instead of traditional oxidants, like TBHP or its derivatives, and directly generates the esterification products in moderate to high yield under mild conditions. This tranformation constitutes a practical and general approach toward various α-acyloxy ethers with broad substrate generality; alkyl-, aryl-, alkenyl- and alkynyl-carboxylic acids are all well tolerated.

The oxidative dehydrogenation of propane with CO (CO-ODP) is a green industrial process for producing propene. Cerium oxide-supported platinum-based (Pt/CeO) catalysts exhibit remarkable reactivity toward propane and CO due to the unique delicate balance of C-H and C[double bond, length as m-dash]O bond activation. However, the simultaneous activation and cleavage of C-H, C-C, and C-O bonds on Pt/CeO-based catalysts may substantially impede the selective activation of C-H bonds during the CO-ODP process.

The selective amination of aromatic C-H bonds is a powerful strategy to access aryl amines, functionalities found in many pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Despite advances in the field, a platform for the direct, selective C-H amination of electronically diverse (hetero)arenes, particularly electron-deficient (hetero)arenes, remains an unaddressed fundamental challenge. In addition, many (hetero)arenes present difficulty in common selective pre-functionalization reactions, such as halogenation , or metal-catalyzed borylation and silylation .

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.

Gene-environment interactions have been observed for childhood asthma, however few have been assessed in ethnically diverse populations. Thus, we examined how polygenic risk score (PRS) modifies the association between ambient air pollution exposure (nitrogen dioxide [NO], ozone, particulate matter < 2.5 and < 10 μm) and childhood asthma incidence in a diverse cohort.

Physical vapor deposition is widely used in the fabrication of organic light-emitting diodes and has the potential to adjust the density and orientation through substrate temperature control, which may lead to enhanced electrical performance. However, it is unclear whether this enhanced property is because of the horizontal molecular orientation or the increased density. The effects of the density and orientation on the electrical properties of a potential electron transport material, (3-dibenzo[c,h]acridin-7-yl)phenyl)diphenylphosphine oxide (TPPO-dibenzacridine), were investigated.
