Published: October 2024

AbstractPsoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that affects patients' quality of life. This study aimed to enhance the efficacy of topical application of fluticasone propionate (FP) using a eucalyptus oil‐based nanoemulsion, an oil possessing anti‐inflammatory activity and extracted from the leaves, fruits, and buds of Eucalyptus globulus or Eucalyptus maidenii, to improve the skin deposition of FP and aid its anti‐inflammatory effect. Box‐Behnken design was employed to optimize NE formulations, which were characterized for globule size, zeta potential, polydispersity index, rheological behavior, microscopic morphology, ex vivo skin permeation/deposition, and in vivo efficacy using imiquimod‐induced psoriatic lesions. The optimized formulation depicted a droplet size of 188 ± 22.4 nm, a zeta potential of −17.63 ± 1.66 mV, and a viscosity of 204.9 mPa s. In addition to the increased FP retention in different skin layers caused by the NE and the reduced PASI score compared to the marketed cream, the levels of inflammatory cytokines IL‐1α, IL‐6, IL17a were markedly lowered, indicating the improved anti‐psoriatic curable efficacy of the optimized formulation in comparison to the FP‐marketed product.

Published: October 2024

AbstractOxygen evolution reaction (OER) represents a significant bottleneck in many energy technologies such as electrochemical water splitting, metal‐oxygen (O) batteries, and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) because of the complexity of the reaction process. Double perovskite oxides (ABO3), recognized for their compositional flexibility, have emerged as excellent OER activity and stability. This study investigates the catalytic potential of A‐site‐ordered double ABO3 with (PrBa)xCo1.5Fe0.5O6δ (PBCF−x, x = 0.9–1.1) in alkaline media. The results reveal that PBCF−0.9, characterized by an A‐site‐deficient composition, exhibits exceptional OER activity. It demonstrates a low Tafel slope of 76.12 mV⋅dec−1 and a low overpotential (η) of 270 mV at 10 mA⋅cm−2. Notably, the intrinsic OER activity of PBCF−0.9 is 25% higher than that of the stoichiometric PBCF−1.0. Additionally, PBCF−0.9 exhibits remarkable durability, as evidenced by its stable performance during a 6‐h chronopotentiometry (CP) test and minimal microstructural changes. These results underscore the effectiveness of A‐site deficiency in optimizing the structure of double ABO3 for improved OER performance. This approach presents a promising strategy for designing highly efficient, stable, and inexpensive catalysts for energy‐related applications.
The Use of a Cativa‐Type Catalyst for the Self‐Reductive Decarbonylation of Long Chain Aliphatic Carboxylic Acids into Noralkanes

Published: October 2024

AbstractThe one‐carbon degradation of aliphatic carboxylic acids has been studied using a H2IrCl6‐Ru(CO)4I2 bimetallic catalyst. Alkanes, RH, have been obtained from the corresponding RCOOH in good to near quantitative yields via a process that is thought to involve (i) a decarbonylation process that involves the formation of alkenes along with CO and H2O, (ii) a water–gas shift (WGS) reaction to give H2 and CO2, and (iii) the hydrogenation of the resulting alkenes.
Visible‐Light‐Induced Desulfurative Coupling of Alkyl Benzothiazolyl Sulfides with Electron‐Deficient Alkenes/Alkynes: Dual Role of Base‐Activated Hantzsch Esters

Published: October 2024

AbstractHantzsch ester (HEH) is a bench‐stable compound used in hydrogenation and photoinduced reactions, where it acts as a photoreductant and an electron donor. In this study, we describe a new use of this classical reductant in the visible‐light‐induced desulfurative coupling of alkyl benzothiazolyl sulfides with electron‐deficient alkenes/alkynes via activation with base additives. C(sp3)─S scission is achieved through catalyst‐free HEH anion‐mediated reactions and organo‐photocatalysis. The synthetic utility is illustrated with several examples of derivatization of natural products, including monosaccharides. In addition, mechanistic investigations reveal that the HEH anion acts as a photoreductant in catalyst‐free reactions and as a sacrificial reductant in the organo‐photocatalysis.

AbstractThe selective cleavage of C−N bonds in N‐containing compounds holds significant research value in organic synthesis, particularly for the synthesis of promising polynitrogen species. For instance, the discovery of the cyclo‐pentazolate (cyclo‐N5−) anion in 2017 as a result of cleavage of the C−N bond has sparked interest within the field of high energy density materials. However, previous methods using ferrous glycinate and m‐chloroperoxybenzoic acid generated the cyclo‐N5− anion in a low yield of 19.5 % after 24 hours, and the mechanism remained unclear. In this study, we developed an efficient catalytic system comprising Mn (II) tetraphenylporphyrin and cumyl hydroperoxide. This system enables the cyclo‐N5− anion to be produced from 3,5‐dimethyl‐4‐hydroxyphenylpentazole in 35.4 % yield in 4 hours. Characterization of Mn(IV)‐oxo porphyrins, ⋅CH3, and ⋅C8H8ON5 radicals provides evidence for the mechanism whereby the cyclo‐N5− anion forms. Our study underscores the competitive potential of radical‐initiated selective C−N bonds cleavage in N‐arylazoles and opens avenues for further exploration in this field.

Published: October 2024

Comprehensive SummaryThe direct reductive coupling of carbonyl compounds with propargyl halides is a powerful and reliable tool in the synthesis of α‐allenols. However, stoichiometric metal reductants, harsh reaction conditions and a variety of additional additives are required in the traditional strategies. Additionally, the reactivity and regioselectivity control remains an elusive challenge. Herein, we developed the Ti‐catalyzed regioselective reductive coupling of readily available aldehydes and racemic propargyl bromides to rapidly access a wide range of α‐allenols. This method proceed efficiently in a reductive radical‐polar crossover manner featuring mild conditions, excellent regioselectivity control, broad substrate scope, and eco‐friendliness. Preliminary mechanistic studies support the radical‐involved catalytic cycle. And the DFT calculations demonstrate that the regioselectivity is determined by the Zimmerman‐Traxler‐type transition states.
Recent Advances of Boron‐Containing Chiral Luminescent Materials†
Authors: Di Jiaqi , Han Shuran , Chen Pangkuan 
Published: October 2024

Comprehensive SummaryAs a class of organic dyes, boron‐containing compounds play an important role in organic luminescent materials. They have attracted considerable attention due to their unique photophysical properties. Chiral luminescent systems have a wide range of practical applications in biological imaging, optoelectronic devices, information storage and 3D display. Boron‐containing chiral luminescent materials can not only effectively improve the luminescent properties of CPL materials, but also bring unique properties to the system, which enables them to be used as favorable CPL emitting materials for an expanded range of applications. Here, we review the research progress of boron‐containing chiral luminescent materials by the detailed discuss according to different chiral skeletons, such as point chirality, 1,1’‐binaphthyl, [n]helicenes, [2,2]paracyclophane and pillar[5]arenes. We believe that this review is of significance for the development of boron‐containing compounds and CPL materials.

Key ScientistsThe studies of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) based on small organic molecules have advanced significantly. However, boron‐containing chiral luminescent materials have gained attention only in recent years. In 2019, Zhao's group prepared a binaphthalene derivative modified with triarylborane, representing the organic small molecule luminescent material to exhibit CPL characteristics responsive to both solvent and fluoride ions. In 2020, the Chen's group used the unique luminescence properties and steric effects of triarylborane and triphenylamine to prepare CPL materials based on the planar chiral pillar[5]arenes. In 2021, Wang's group developed a new class of B,N‐embedded double hetero[7]helicenes molecules that exhibit strong chiroptical responses in the UV‐visible region. In the same year, He's group used asymmetric reactions to synthesize boron‐based point‐chirality compounds with high efficiency and enantioselectivity. In 2023, Ravat synthesized 1,4‐B,N‐embedded helicenes exhibiting narrow‐band fluorescence and CPL. During this period, Matthias Wagner et al obtained (BO)2‐doped tetrathia[7]helicene via an efficient four‐step synthesis, and Zheng reported the nearly pure green circularly polarized electroluminescent device (CP‐OLED). In 2024, Chen's group prepared B,N‐embedded hetero‐[9]helicenes offering a pathway towards significantly enhanced efficiency in helicene‐based CPEL.

AbstractThe formation of solid solutions in the CaMoO4‐CaWO4 binary system is investigated by X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy methods. The intermixtures of CaMoO4 and CaWO4 components are sintered in 600—1200 °C temperature range (in 100 °C increments). The solidus of the CaMoxW(1‐x)O4 system is studied by the differential scanning calorimetry method in the x = 0.3 … 1.0 range. CaMoO4‐CaWO4 phase diagram is constructed up to 1550 °C. The minimal sintering temperature in order to get CaMoxW(1‐x)O4 solid solution is shown to be 800 °C. Cathodoluminescence study of CaMoxW(1‐x)O4 compounds showed higher intensity of molybdate luminescence type.
Guidelines for Rigorous and Reproducible Research on Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder: Commentary on Dang et al. (2024)
Authors: Keel Pamela K. 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTDang et al.'s review concludes that atypical anorexia nervosa (atypical AN), purging disorder (PD), and night eating syndrome (NES) are clinically significant and severe eating disorders (EDs). However, findings are unlikely to alter their status in future editions of the DSM due to limitations in the literature to date. Guidelines are offered to promote rigorous and reproducible research on other specified feeding or eating disorder OSFED. First, published research diagnostic criteria for atypical AN, PD, and NES should be consistently used to ensure findings across studies reflect the same conditions. Second, operational definitions are recommended for “recurrent” as at least twice within a 3‐month period, minimum duration as at least 1 month, and “significant weight loss” as >5% BMI reduction within 1 month. Third, Thomas's and Gydus's trumping scheme for differential diagnosis of OSFED subcategories is endorsed but should prioritize identifying treatment targets based on medical morbidity over mirroring existing diagnostic algorithms. Fourth, a systematic approach for establishing clinical significance is recommended that explicitly notes medical risk associated with malnutrition, purging and nonpurging behaviors, and relevance of marked distress related to binge eating and body image disturbance. Adoption of these guidelines will facilitate necessary research on clinical utility.
OSFED Subtypes: The Need for Better Definitions
Authors: Attia Evelyn , Guarda Angela S. 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTOther specified feeding and eating disorders (OSFED) is a diagnostic category in DSM‐5 describing individuals with clinically significant eating behavioral disturbances that do not meet criteria for full‐threshold eating disorder diagnoses. OSFED includes five example subgroups: atypical anorexia nervosa, sub‐threshold bulimia nervosa, sub‐threshold binge‐eating disorder, purging disorder, and night eating syndrome. A recent review of OSFED by Dang et al. aims to examine differences between OSFED and full‐threshold eating disorders as well as between OSFED and healthy populations but is limited by the lack of clear definitions of OSFED subtypes and methodological differences across studies. Clearer diagnostic definitions for OSFED subtypes are needed. Consideration should also be given to indicators of lifetime history of full‐threshold conditions, diagnostic drift, and remission criteria as OSFED categories undergo further study.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTFor organisms in temperate environments, seasonal variation in resource availability and weather conditions exert fluctuating selection pressures on survival and fitness, resulting in diverse adaptive responses. By manipulating resource availability on a local spatial scale, we studied seasonal patterns of resource use within natural populations of burying beetles Nicrophorus vespilloides in a Norfolk woodland. Burying beetles are necrophagous insects that breed on vertebrate carcasses. They are active in Europe between April and October, after which they burrow into the soil and overwinter. Using breeding and chemical analyses, we compared the fecundity and physiological state of beetles that differed in their seasonal resource use. We found seasonal variation in carrion use by wild burying beetles and correlated differences in their reproductive success and cuticular hydrocarbon profiles. Our results provide novel insight into the seasonal correlates of behaviour, physiology and life history in burying beetles.

ABSTRACTA peltate‐leaved new species, Oreocharis scutifolia Z. Xie & H. H. Kong, endemic to the Dry–Hot Valley of the Jinsha River Basin, Yunnan, China, is described and illustrated here. It is similar to O. cordatula (Craib) Pellegr. and O. aurantiaca Baill. in floral characters but differs in its peltate leaf blades, which are unique in the genus (and only occur in one population of O. henryana Oliv., but its flowers are smaller, campanulate, and deep purple). Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on transcriptome data confirmed its systematic position to be sister group with O. henryana, O. cordatula, O. minor Pellegr., and O. aurantiaca Baill. (LPP = 1), and well apart from the remaining members of the genus. The new species O. scutifolia is assessed as “Critically Endangered” following the IUCN categories and criteria, due to its small and single population, thus making it face serious threats from human disturbance, invasive plants, shrinking habitat, and decreasing habitat quality.
Using Genetic Data to Determine Origin for Out‐Migrating Smolt and Returning Adult Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in a Southeast Alaska Drainage

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTOncorhynchus mykiss is a partially migratory salmonid species, and many migratory populations (known as steelhead) have declined in recent decades in the western United States and Canada. Closely related resident populations (known as rainbow trout) may be an effective resource in the recovery of these declining migratory populations. However, the extent to which different populations of resident rainbow trout produce migratory individuals and how likely these individuals are to return as adults to spawn remains unknown. One limitation to answering these questions is the identification of loci that accurately segregate between migratory and resident populations. To address this limitation, we used existing genomic data from a well‐studied population of O. mykiss from Southeastern Alaska (Sashin Creek) to identify loci that segregate between phenotypes. We then utilized Double Mismatch Allele‐Specific qPCR (DMAS‐qPCR) to genotype 233 smolts out‐migrating from Sashin Creek and 99 returning adult steelhead trout across a five‐year period to determine (a) the origin of out‐migrating smolts and returning adults and (b) to quantify the extent to which the resident population contributes to the migratory population. Our results show that 37.3% of out‐migrating smolts were produced from resident parents, whereas 19.3% of returning adults had resident parents. Ultimately, these results demonstrate that resident populations of rainbow trout produce migrant offspring that successfully complete their migration and return to spawn, increasing population sizes and likely improving genetic diversity. Therefore, conservation efforts should consider landlocked resident populations for producing smolts when developing recovery plans for migratory steelhead populations.
Assessing the Effects of Habitat Loss and Deterioration on a Red Squirrel Translocation Site: Insights for Future Conservation Management
Authors: Reilly Emily , Lawton Colin 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTTranslocations, a conservation tool used to conserve and restore dwindling species, are often associated with high failure rates. Inadequate long‐term monitoring of both populations and their introduction sites beyond the initial years post‐translocation creates a gap in our understanding of the factors that determine translocation success or failure, resulting in less informed projects in the future. This lack of long‐term monitoring is partly caused by the absence of a well‐defined framework by which the success of the translocation can be measured, leading to premature and sometimes inaccurate assessments of their outcome. We investigated the long‐term outcome of a red squirrel translocation in the west of Ireland, specifically assessing the habitat changes in the translocation site since the introduction in 2005, and their impact on the capacity of the forest to sustain a population of a given size. Using digitised historical map data, we showed that the translocation site experienced a 53% reduction in suitable habitat. Additionally, there was a 41%–81% reduction in the total number of red squirrels the forest could support, according to feeding survey data. Clear‐felling, a forest fire and a shift in tree species composition collectively contributed to this decline in site suitability. This investigation underscores the complexity of translocation projects and emphasises the pivotal role of habitat quality in their outcomes. We advocate for detailed habitat assessments during the planning phase, avoidance of unstable habitats as translocation sites, and the implementation of long‐term monitoring practices.
