A wide range of indolizines with allenes proceeded smoothly under mechanochemically induced conditions via a [3+2] annulation process, affording various substituted pyrrolo[2,1,5-]indolizines in good yields. The reaction efficiency was greatly improved by using piezoelectric material as the charge transfer catalyst. The photophysical properties of the resulting pyrrolo[2,1,5-]indolizine were characterized.

Macrophages encounter a myriad of biochemical and mechanical stimuli across various tissues and pathological contexts. Notably, matrix rigidity has emerged as a pivotal regulator of macrophage activation through mechanotransduction. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the interplay between mechanical and biochemical cues within the nuclear milieu remain elusive.

Understanding structure-mechanical activity relationships (SMARs) in polymer mechanochemistry is essential for the rational design of mechanophores with desired properties, yet SMARs in noncovalent mechanical transformations remain relatively underexplored. In this study, we designed a subset of diarylethene mechanophores based on a lever-arm hypothesis and systematically investigated their mechanical activity toward a noncovalent-yet-chemical conversion of atropisomer stereochemistry. Results from Density functional theory (DFT) calculations, single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) measurements, and ultrasonication experiments collectively support the lever-arm hypothesis and confirm the exceptional sensitivity of chemo-mechanical coupling in these atropisomers.

Solid-state batteries currently receive ample attention due to their potential to outperform lithium-ion batteries in terms of energy density when featuring next-generation anodes such as lithium metal or silicon. One key remaining challenge is identifying solid electrolytes that combine high ionic conductivity with stability in contact with the highly reducing potentials of next-generation anodes. Fully reduced electrolytes, based on irreducible anions, offer a promising solution by avoiding electrolyte decomposition altogether.

Initiating or sustaining physical and chemical transformations with mechanical force - mechanochemistry - provides an opportunity for more sustainable chemical processes, and access to new chemical reactivity. These transformations, however, do not always adhere to 'conventional' chemical wisdom, making them difficult to design and rationalise. This challenge is exacerbated by the fact that not all mechanochemical transformations are equal, with mechanical force playing a different role in different types of processes.

Article Synopsis
  • Hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) have exceptional properties and can be combined with polymers to create advanced materials for energy storage and thermal management.
  • Traditional methods for producing BNNS are inefficient and result in low-quality products, limiting their wider use in high-value applications.
  • A new poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-assisted pan-milling technique improves the quality of BNNS and enhances its properties in nanocomposites, resulting in stronger, more durable materials suitable for high-temperature applications.
