The reaction of secondary and tertiary benzyl alcohols activated by 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) with aldehydes in the presence of NiCl·dmg as a precatalyst in ethylene glycol afforded ethers at room temperature. A selective C-O vs C-C bond formation was observed for the secondary and tertiary benzyl alcohols in comparison with primary ones.

The coherent spin waves, magnons, can propagate without accompanying charge transports and Joule heat dissipation. Room-temperature and long-distance spin waves propagating within nanoscale spin channels are considered promising for integrated magnonic applications, but experimentally challenging. Here we report that long-distance propagation of chiral magnonic edge states can be achieved at room temperature in manganite thin films with long, antiferromagnetically coupled spin spirals (millimetre length) and low magnetic Gilbert damping (~3.

The Selective Metallization Technique shows promise for roll-to-roll in-line patterning of flexible electronics using evaporated metals, but challenges arise when applied to sputtering functional materials. This study overcomes these challenges with simultaneous sputtering of Bi-Sb-Te and evaporation of metal (Ag or Cu) for thermoelectric layers when using Selective Metallization Technique. Large-scale manufacturing is demonstrated through roll-to-roll processing of a 0.

Objectives: Prompt recognition of hyperammonaemia can avoid severe consequences of delayed treatment. Strict sample transport requirements present barriers to requesting and, if not achieved, rejection by the laboratory. Evidence is sparse on ammonia stability from studies using modern techniques or based in clinical settings.

Electron-rich anilines as cleavable linkers for peptides.

Bioorg Chem

December 2024

Department of Chemistry, University of Richmond, Gottwald Science Center, B-100 138 UR Drive, Richmond, VA 23173, United States. Electronic address:

We report the development of a new electron-rich aniline (ERA)-based cleavable linker. Anilines can be incorporated into peptides during SPPS and are stable to most reaction conditions. ERA-containing peptides can be cleaved rapidly in the presence of oxidants, such as DDQ, CAN, and NaIO, in 30 min at room temperature.

Enhanced Light-Matter Interaction with Bloch Surface Wave Modulated Plasmonic Nanocavities.

Strong coupling between nanocavities and single excitons at room temperature is important for studying cavity quantum electrodynamics. However, the coupling strength is highly dependent on the spatial light-confinement ability of the cavity, the number of involved excitons, and the orientation of the electric field within the cavity. By constructing a hybrid cavity with a one-dimensional photonic crystal cavity and a plasmonic nanocavity, we effectively improve the quality factor, reduce the mode volume, and control the direction of the electric field using Bloch surface waves.
