A trial application of a recent two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance experiment to the polypeptide antibiotic siomycin A is described. Proton--carbon-13 chemical shift correlation measures the proton and carbon-13 chemical shift for each directly bonded CH group in a molecule, in a single experiment. The resultant map of correlated chemical shifts enables the carbon-13 spectrum to be assigned directly from the known proton shifts, and allows individual proton signals to be identified without problems of overlap. The signal-to-noise ratio available from such techniques should enable their application to aqueous protein solutions using currently available high-field spectrometers.

A 1,1-hydroboration of alkynylgermanes with unique -Ge/B stereochemistry under transition-metal-free conditions is reported. Mechanistic studies suggest that a pathway involving α-boration followed by a stepwise 1,2-Ge/H shift on the intermediate structurally lies between an alkyne-Ge π complex and a typical vinyl cation. The resulting Ge/B bimetallic modules, along with a /Ge/B trimetallic variant, can be conveniently transformed into trisubstituted olefins through iterative divergent cross-coupling.

Commercialization of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries is largely limited by polysulfide shuttling and sluggish kinetics. Herein, 2D nanochannel interlayer composed of alternatively-stacked porous silica nanosheets (PSN) and TiCT-MXene are developed. The 2D nanochannels with selective cation transport characteristics facilitate lithium ion rapid transport, while reject the translocation of polysulfide anions across the separator.

The primary challenge is to clarify how the polarization field controls the OER dynamic pathway at a molecular level. Here, electrochemical fingerprint tests were used, together with theoretical calculations, to systematically investigate the free energy change in oxo and hydroxyl intermediates on TiO-BaTiO core-shell nanowires (BTO@TiO) upon polarization in different pH environments.

Solvatochromism exhibited by azobenzene-4-sulfonyl chloride (here abbreviated as Azo-SCl) has been investigated in a series of non-polar, polar-aprotic and polar-protic solvents. The UV-vis spectra of Azo-SCl exhibit two long-wavelength bands, observed at 321-330 nm (band-I) and 435-461 nm (band-II), which are ascribed to the π*-π (S ← S) and π*-n (S ← S) transitions, respectively. The shorter wavelength band indicates a reversal in solvatochromism, from negative to positive solvatochromism, for a solvent with a dielectric constant of 32.
