A variety of long-lived carbocations containing the -(pentafluorosulfanyl)phenyl and -(pentafluorosulfanyl)phenyl groups have been characterized by low-temperature NMR spectroscopy. In the case of potential nonclassical carbocations substituted with the -(pentafluorosulfanyl)phenyl substituent, deviations from linearity when the Hammett parameter (σ) is plotted versus C NMR shifts of the carbocationic center were observed. Plotting the experimentally derived C NMR shifts versus σ or σ of classical 4-phenyl-X substituted carbocations also provides a means to accurately back-calculate the σ and σ parameters of the -SF substituent.

Artificial intelligence (AI) in echocardiography represents a transformative advancement in cardiology, addressing longstanding challenges in cardiac diagnostics. Echocardiography has traditionally been limited by operator-dependent variability and subjective interpretation, which impact diagnostic reliability. This study evaluates the role of AI, particularly machine learning (ML), in enhancing the accuracy and consistency of echocardiographic image analysis and its potential to complement clinical expertise.

After open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO), the patella is displaced distally, causing patellofemoral joint degeneration. The objective of this study was to ascertain whether the combination of OWHTO and lateral retinacular release (LRR) can prevent articular cartilage degeneration of the patellofemoral joint using magnetic resonance imaging T2 mapping. This study included 37 patients (37 knees) who underwent OWHTO alone (OWHTO group) and 37 patients (37 knees) who underwent OWHTO with LRR (OWHTO + LRR group) with a correction angle of <10° for varus knee osteoarthritis.

Five representatives of a novel type of di(hydroperoxy)alkane adducts of phosphine oxides have been synthesized and fully characterized, including their solubility in organic solvents. The phosphine oxide CyPO () has been used in combination with the corresponding aldehydes to create the adducts CyPO·(HOO)CHCH (), CyPO·(HOO)CHCHCH (), CyPO·(HOO)CH(CH)CH (), CyPO·(HOO)CH(CH)CH (), and CyPO·(HOO)CH(CH)CH (). All adducts crystallize easily and contain the peroxide and phosphine oxide hydrogen-bonded in 1:1 ratios.

In this study, the homogeneous carboxylation of potassium, sodium, and lithium phenolates in DMSO solution at 100 °C by the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction was investigated. The impact of water, phenolate concentration, and cation nature on the yield of products and reaction selectivity was demonstrated. Based on the patterns observed, it was concluded that a complex cluster mechanism governs the carboxylation reaction in the solution.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis is correlated with the membrane content of various lipid species, including cholesterol, whose interactions with amyloid precursor protein (APP) have been extensively explored. Amyloid-β peptides triggering AD are products of APP cleavage by secretases, which differ depending on the APP and secretase location relative to ordered or disordered membrane microdomains. We used high-resolution NMR to probe the interactions of the cholesterol analog with APP transmembrane domain in two membrane-mimicking systems resembling ordered or perturbed lipid environments (bicelles/micelles).
