Herein we report a facile three-step synthesis of [8]-, [9]-, and [12]cyclo-1,4-naphthalene nanorings as the conjugated segments of carbon nanotubes. The nanorings were created via a platinum-mediated assembly of 1,4-naphthalene-based units and subsequent reductive elimination in the presence of triphenylphosphine. This present platinum-mediated approach is attractive because of its simple three-step process to produce the targeted nanorings in a high overall yield. In addition, their photophysical properties were studied using UV-vis spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, which further revealed their unique size-dependent properties.

Divergent synthesis of triazoles was achieved using newly designed platform molecules possessing azide, alkyne, and fluorosulfonyl moieties. Consecutive conjugations by the sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange and following consecutive triazole formations allowed us to prepare a wide variety of bis(triazole)s by virtue of selective transformations. One-pot triple-click assembly of easily accessible modules led to the facile synthesis of middle-molecular-weight triazoles with various functional moieties.

Copper(I) sulfide (CuS) has electrical, optical, and thermoelectric properties that make it a promising material for a variety of applications, including energy conversion and antibacterial coatings. Nevertheless, the current synthesis and morphological modulation of CuS typically focuses on thermolysis of the copper and sulfur precursors, is procedurally complex, and demands expensive equipment. In this article, a facile, high-yield, three-step, low-temperature aqueous synthesis alternative for CuS nanoplates is introduced.

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the gold standard for molecular diagnoses due to its high sensitivity and accuracy. However, conventional PCR exhibits limitations including extended analysis time and complicated sample treatment. To shorten the analysis time of standard three-step PCR, we employed a two-step PCR allowing for fast amplification of nucleic acid in a chip format.

An economical one-pot, three-step reaction sequence of readily available 2-monosubstituted 1,3-diketones and 1,4-benzoquinones has been explored for the facile access of 2,3-dialkyl-5-hydroxybenzofurans. By using cheap KCO and conc. HCl as the reaction promoters, the reaction occurs smoothly via sequential Michael addition, aromatization, retro-Claisen, deacylation, hemiketalization, and dehydration processes under mild conditions in a practical manner.

Nanocomposites selectively induce cancer cell death, holding potential for precise liver cancer treatment breakthroughs. This study assessed the cytotoxicity of gold nanocomposites (Au NCs) enclosed within silk fibroin (SF), aptamer (Ap), and the myogenic Talaromyces purpureogenus (TP) against a human liver cancer cell (HepG2). The ultimate product, Ap-SF-TP@Au NCs, results from a three-step process.
