An efficient synthetic method of aromatic ketones through C-F cleavage of trifluoromethyl group is disclosed. The high functional group tolerance of the transformation and the remarkable stability of trifluoromethyl group in various reactions enabled multi-substituted aromatic ketone synthesis in an efficient route involving useful transformations such as ortho-lithiation, aryne chemistry, and cross-couplings.

This paper describes muon spin spectroscopy studies of 12-phosphatetraphene stabilized by a peri-trifluoromethyl group and a meso-aryl substituent. Even though the prepared solution in tetrahydrofuran (THF) was quite dilute (0.060 M) for transverse-field muon spin rotation (TF-µSR) measurements, the π-extended heavier congener of tetraphene presented a pair of signals due to a muoniated radical from which the muon hyperfine coupling constant (hfc) was determined.

Oxazoles are important five-membered heterocycles that contain both nitrogen and oxygen atoms. Due to their wide range of biological activities, many oxazoles demonstrate potential for extensive application in various fields, including medicinal chemistry. Trifluoromethyl carbinol, an important pharmacophore, contains both trifluoromethyl and hydroxyl groups and is common in molecules with important biological activities.

Background: Tumor cells can drive the senescence of effector T cells by unbalancing their lipid metabolism, thereby limiting adoptive T cell therapy and contributing to tumor immune evasion. Our objective is to provide a feasible strategy for enhancing T cell treatment efficacy against solid tumors.
Methods: In this study, liposomal arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone (ATK) was anchored onto the adoptive T cell surface via bioorthogonal reactions, aiming to specifically inhibit the group IVA cytosolic phospholipase Aα (cPLAα), a key enzyme facilitating phospholipid metabolism and senescent state of T cells.

Improving the interface characteristics between the hole-transport layer (HTL) and perovskite absorber layer is crucial for achieving maximum efficiency in inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs). This paper presents an effective functional compensation layer (FCL) composed of benzothiophene derivatives, particularly 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1-benzothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (TFMBTA); this layer is introduced between the MeO-2PACz HTL and perovskite absorber layer to improve the interfacial characteristics between them. This FCL improves charge transfer, hole extraction, and perovskite deposition by improving the surface morphology of the HTL and optimizing the energy level alignment.
