An associative electron upconversion is proposed as a key step determining the selectivity of thiol–yne coupling. The developed synthetic approach provided an efficient tool to access a comprehensive range of products – four types of vinyl sulfides were prepared in high yields and selectivity. We report practically important transition-metal-free regioselective thiol–yne addition and formation of the demanding Markovnikov-type product by a radical photoredox process. The photochemical process was directly monitored by mass-spectrometry in a specially designed ESI-MS device with green laser excitation in the spray chamber. The proposed reaction mechanism is supported by experiments and DFT calculations.

In this work, we developed a straightforward data-driven approach to predict the cytotoxicity of metal complexes based entirely on their (metal + ligands) composition. To this end, we have manually curated MetalCytoToxDB─a comprehensive experimental database comprising 26,500 IC50 values for 7050 metal complexes against 754 cell lines from 1921 articles. Based on these, machine learning ...

The reaction of copper(I) phenylacetylide [PhC ≡ CCu]n with the 2-pyridylphosphines (tBu2PyP and Ph2PyP) offers a straightforward route to structurally diverse clusters. With tBu2PyP, a trinuclear cluster [Cu3(C ≡ CPh)3(tBu2PyP)3] featuring a Cu3 triangular was isolated. Surprisingly, the reaction of [PhC ≡ CCu]n with Ph2PyP yields two isomeric clusters [Cu4(C ≡ CPh)4(Ph2PyP)4] with tetrahedral or zigzag-arranged Cu4 cores. Upon prolonged storage in acetonitrile, the tetrahedral Cu4 cluster converts to ...

Multidrug resistance (MDR) remains one of the principal challenges in cancer chemotherapy, necessitating new strategies to restore drug efficacy. In this study we developed and characterize a redox-responsive nanoplatform based on trithiocyanuric acid and polyethylene glycol (TTCA-PEG NPs) as a potential tool to overcome MDR and provide a biocompatible delivery system for conventional antitumor drugs. ...

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

We investigate the spatial overlap of successive spin configurations in Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations using the local Metropolis algorithm and the Svendsen-Wang and Wolff cluster algorithms. We examine the dynamics of these algorithms for two models in different universality classes: the Ising model and the Potts model with three components. The overlap of two ...

The dipolar [3+2]-cycloaddition reactions of 3-aroylpyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzothiazine-1,2,4-triones with diarylnitrones lead to the formation of benzo[b]isoxazolo[5',4':2,3]pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,4]thiazines. The reac- tion proceeds stereoselectively to form exclusively the (2aS*,3R*,5aS*) diastereomers. Density functional theory computations for the model reaction showed that the (2aS*,3R*,5aS*) diastereomers are both kinetically and thermodynamically preferred over the alternative (2aS*,3S*,5aS*) diastereomers. At room temperature in solution, the ...

Supercritical CO2 (scCO2 ) is an environmentally friendly solvent, but its low polarity limits the solubility of polar compounds. Cosolvents are commonly used to enhance solvation capability, yet comprehensive datadriven studies are scarce. We compiled the largest dataset to date — 4401 experimental solubility records with 22 cosolvents for 93 nonionic solutes, plus 4855 records ...

This study presents a mean-field theory for zwitterionic polymer solutions confined within attractive slit-like nanopores. Building upon our prior model for self-coacervation [Budkov et al., Soft Matter 19, 3281–3289 (2023)], we demonstrate that strong electrostatic dipole–dipole correlations between monomeric units, coupled with attraction to pore walls, can induce capillary-driven liquid–liquid phase separation inside the pore—a ...

We synthesized and investigated a new series of Sm3+ 1,3-diketonate complexes with CnF2n+1-homologous thiophene-containing ligands. A clear correlation was found between the number of fluorine atoms in the 1,3-diketone's carbon chain and the luminescent properties of the samarium(III) complexes. The ligand modification method employed facilitates targeted and significant enhancements in the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). ...

Conventional thermal sensors often face limitations due to their reliance on direct contact and restricted measurement ranges, leading to the emergence of novel techniques like luminescence thermometry. However, sensitivity of luminescent thermometers is limited by the only used Boltzmann-based Mott–Seitz model, which is imperfect. To overcome this, we complemented Mott–Seitz model applying machine learning algorithms, ...

Two-dimensional (2D) chromium telluride Cr2Te3 exhibits strong ferromagnetic ordering with high coercivity at low temperatures and paramagnetic behavior when approaching room temperature. The spin states of monolayer Cr2Te3 show ferromagnetic ordering in the ground state. In situ Raman analysis reveals a reversible structure transformation and hence proves ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transition during low-temperature heating cycles (0–25 °C). The magnetic ...

GeTe is a promising mid-temperature thermoelectric material that exhibits excellent thermoelectric performance. However, the rhombohedral-to-cubic phase transition occurring near 700 K causes a change in the coefficient of thermal expansion, leading to internal stresses in the device and affecting its working efficiency. In this work, we reported the alloying of Ge0.81Mn0.15Bi0.04Te with AgSbTe2 to further reduce ...
