Coherent control of asymmetric spintronic terahertz emission from two-dimensional hybrid metal halides

Here we report the observation of asymmetric spintronic-THz radiation in Two-Dimensional Hybrid Metal Halides (2D-HMH) interfaced with a ferromagnetic metal, produced by ultrafast spin current under femtosecond laser excitation.

Stereospecific Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Cross-Coupling of Alkyl Tosylate and Allyl Alcohol Electrophiles

Herein, we report a nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling of allyl alcohols with chiral, nonracemic alkyl tosylates.

Image-guided selection of Gd@C-dots as sensitizers to improve radiotherapy of non-small cell lung cancer

In this work, two Gd@C-dots formulations were fabricated which bore carboxylic acid (CA-Gd@C-dots) or amino group (pPD-Gd@C-dots), respectively, on the carbon shell.

Seasonal Contribution of Isoprene-Derived Organosulfates to Total Water-Soluble Fine Particulate Organic Sulfur in the United States

In this work, iOSs were quantitively characterized in PM2.5 collected from 20 ground sites within the Interagency Monitoring of Protected Visual Environments (IMPROVE) network during the 2016 summer and winter seasons.

Anodic coulometry of zero-valent iron nanoparticles

Herein, this work is focused on applying the electrochemical method known as anodic particle coulometry (APC) to detect and characterize nZVI.

The Role of Oxygen in the Voltaic Pile

Here, we demonstrate that the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) contributes to the cathodic half-reaction from pH 0 to 14, suggesting that the true mechanism of the voltaic pile depends on the mixed potential set by the HER/ORR and zinc oxidation.

Development of “Imprint-and-Report” Dynamic Combinatorial Libraries for Differential Sensing Applications

Herein, we demonstrate a unique sensor array approach using “imprint-and-report” DCLs that obviates the need for receptor synthesis and isolation.

Principle of Chirality Hierarchy in Three-Blade Propeller Systems

In this work, we confirm the validity of this principle in the three-blade propeller molecular system.

Crosslinking mass spectrometry unveils novel interactions and structural distinctions in the model green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

Herein, the global interactome of the unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was analyzed via XL-MS by implementing the MS-cleavable disuccinimidyl sulfoxide (DSSO) crosslinker and enriching for crosslinks using strong cation exchange chromatography.

Controlling Amphiphilic Polymer Folding beyond the Primary Structure with Protein-Mimetic Di(Phenylalanine)

Using a bioinspired di(phenylalanine) acrylamide (FF) monomer, we explored the impact of various noncovalent interactions in generating ordered assembled structures.

Ionic Fluorogels for Remediation of Per- and Polyfluorinated Alkyl Substances from Water

Motivated by the limitations in selectivity and performance of current PFAS removal technologies, we report a platform approach for the development of ionic fluorogel resins that effectively remove a chemically diverse mixture of PFAS from water.

Mechanistic Insight into the Stereoselective Cationic Polymerization of Vinyl Ethers

Herein, we provide a deeper understanding of stereoselective ion-pairing polymerization through comprehensive experimental and computational studies.
