Article Abstract

A generally applicable direct synthesis of cyanoarenes from quinones is presented. Particular emphasis is placed on the preparation of precursors and target molecules relevant for organic materials, including halogenated cyanoarenes and larger cyanated acenes. The reaction and work-up protocols are adjusted for the challenges presented by the different substrates and products. Screening results of the initial reaction optimization are given to further facilitate adaptation to other synthetic problems. The universality of the reaction is finally highlighted by successful substitution of para-quinones by an ortho-quinone as the starting material.

Background: The multifunctional cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays a pivotal role in chronic and acute inflammatory responses, underscoring the importance of accurately determining IL-6 levels for early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of inflammation.

Results: This study developed a versatile and innovative single-particle surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensing platform for the precise and sensitive quantification of IL-6 in complex samples using a novel one-pot synthesized, silver ions-doped three-dimensional porous gold microparticles (PGMs) with abundant hot spots for robust SERS enhancement. By rationally designing rich cytosine-Ag-cytosine base pairs between IL-6 aptamers and complementary chains on the PGMs, we harnessed the SERS-enhancing effect to achieve highly sensitive and specific IL-6 quantification within a wide range of 10 to 10 mg/mL and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the adhesive, conductive hydrogel on wound healing when used as a therapeutic dressing. Herein, a dressing of PVA/QCS/TP@Fe (PQTF) was designed and prepared integrating polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), chitosan quaternary ammonium salt (QCS), tea polyphenol (TP), and ferric ions (Fe) by a simple one-pot and freeze-thaw method. In view of the comprehensive properties of PQTF hydrogel, including adhesion, electrical conductivity, and swelling performance, PQTF was selected for subsequent in vitro and in vivo healing promotion studies.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a promising platform for heterogeneous photocatalysis due to their stability and design diversity, but their potential is often restricted by unmanageable targeted excitation and charge transfer. Herein, a bimetallic COF integrating photosensitizers and catalytic sites is designed to facilitate locally ultrafast charge transfer, aiming to improve the photocatalytic reduction of CO. The strategy uses a "one-pot" method to synthesize the bimetallic COF (termed PBCOF) through in situ Schiff-base condensation of Pyrene with MBpy (M = Ru, Re) units.

Polymer-based catalysts have garnered significant interest for their efficiency, reusability, and compatibility with various synthesis processes. In catalytic applications, polymers offer the advantage of structural versatility, enabling functional groups to be tailored for specific catalytic activities. In this study, we developed a novel magnetic copolymer of methyl methacrylate and maleic anhydride (PMMAn), synthesized via in situ chemical polymerization of methyl methacrylate onto maleic anhydride, using benzoyl peroxide as a free-radical initiator.

We developed glycosyl -(-methoxyphenylpropargyl) pyrrole-2-carboxylates (PPPCs) as highly effective donors for chemical glycosylation. The modular design and exceptional stability of the acid precursor provide PPPC donors with synthetic versatility and ease of use. Activated by NIS/TMSOTf, PPPC donors exhibit a broad compatibility for both - and -glycosylation reactions.
