The thermal [3,3] rearrangement of 3,3-dicyano-1,5-enynes to γ-allenyl alkylidenemalononitriles (the "enyne Cope rearrangement") has largely eluded synthetic value as the desired products, too, are thermally reactive and ultimately yield 6π electrocyclization products. Herein, we describe experimental and computational studies related to the thermal rearrangement of 1,5-enynes, structural features to halt the thermal rearrangement at the allene stage, and a reductive variant for preparing bifunctional allenyl malononitriles. We also describe various ways that the bifunctional building blocks can be manipulated and converted to cyclic and acyclic architectures.

Two-dimensional squishy glass: yielding under oscillatory shear.

The yielding response to an imposed oscillatory shear is investigated for a model two-dimensional dense glass composed of bidisperse, deformable polymer rings, with the ring stiffness being the control parameter. In the quiescent glassy state, the more flexible rings exhibit a broader spectrum of shape fluctuations, which becomes increasingly constrained with increasing ring stiffness. Under shear, the highly packed rings yield, the thermal assembly loses rigidity, with the threshold yield strain increasing significantly with decreasing ring stiffness.

Given extremely high porosity, aerogels have demonstrated remarkable advantages in serving as thermal insulation and wave-transparent materials. Unfortunately, their practical applications are greatly confined by their inherent fragility. The recent emergence of polymer aerogels presents an ideal platform for the development of flexible aerogel films.

In this experiment, we investigated the structural properties, digestibility, and variations in antioxidant activity of rice bran-tissue peanut protein (RB-TPP), which was created through high-moisture extrusion between peanut protein powder (PPP) and various additions (0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 %, and 20 %) of rice bran (RB). The disulfide bonding and hydrophobic interactions were strengthened, and the hydrogen bonding in the RB-TPP was weakened by adding 5-10 % RB. Additionally, the β-sheet content reached its maximum at RB-10 %, which allowed the hydrophobic groups to be encapsulated ina stable protein network fiber structure, enhancing degree of organization, the thermal stability and digestibility of RB-TPP.

UV-irradiation is a stress factor for proteins, leading to disruption of their native structure. Test systems based on UV-irradiated proteins are relevant for researchers, as they allow working directly with damaged protein molecules, which can be important when studying the properties and mechanisms of action of various antiaggregation agents. The study of UV-irradiated proteins can also have applied significance, including medical.
