The efficient synthesis of trans-2-ethenylcyclopropyl aryl ketones via an intramolecular S2-like displacement of an allylic ester is reported. A novel 1,5-acyl shift process is also observed that contributes to the product mixture. Theoretical calculations provide a rationale for the observed product ratio.

Solid polymer batteries (SPEs) are highly desirable for energy storage because of the urgent need for higher energy density and safer lithium ion batteries (LIBs). In this work, the single-ion lithium salt PAEK-LiCPSI was synthesized by grafting 3-chloropropanesulfonyl trifluoromethanesulimide lithium (LiCPSI) onto poly(aryl ether ketone) (PAEK). Nanocellulose (NCC), PAEK-LiCPSI, and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF-HFP) were compounded to obtain NCC reinforced high-performance nanofiber composite polymer electrolytes (NCC/PAEK/PVDF) through electrospinning, which presented tensile strength of 15.

Prostate cancer remains a significant global health concern, prompting ongoing exploration of novel therapeutic agents. Licochalcone A, a natural product in the chalcone family isolated from licorice root, is characterized by its enone structure and demonstrates antiproliferative activity in the micromolar range across various cell lines, including prostate cancer. Building on our prior success in enhancing curcumin's antiproliferative potency by replacing the substituted phenol with a 1-alkyl-1H-imizadol-2-yl moiety, we applied a similar approach to design a new class of licochalcone A-inspired chalcones.

A DMSO-promoted practical one-step α-bromination reaction of α-aryl ketones with NBS has been developed for the construction of 2-aryl-2-bromo-cycloketones. The desired regioselective α-bromination products were isolated in moderate to good yields, with a maximum tested scale of 15 mmol. Notably, ketamine derivatives could be smoothly synthesized in two steps.

Article Synopsis
- Indano[60]fullerene bromide is an important intermediate in making indano[60]fullerene ketone, a derivative that can easily evaporate.
- Researchers utilized aqueous hydrobromic acid to create a consistent and high-yielding reaction process.
- A method for a scalable one-pot synthesis of indano[60]fullerene ketone from aryl[60]fullerenyl dimers was successfully demonstrated.
