Summary: A self-photocatalyzed perfluoroalkylation/cyclization cascade of 3-aza-1,5-dienes is developed, which is facilitated by an unprecedented cation-π interaction. The reaction shows high regioselectivity and produces 3-perfluoroalkyl-4-pyrrolin-2-ones under conditions free of exogenous photocatalyst, transition metal, and organoamine. Cs2CO3 acts as both a photoactivator and a base in this process. The scalability of this method to a 2-gram scale and its induction by natural sunlight are demonstrated.

Summary: Fast charging performance of electrode materials is crucial for batteries in portable devices and electric vehicles. This study proposes a new theoretical framework that can decouple the impacts of ohmic resistance, reaction rate, and ion diffusion on the fast charging properties of electrodes. The model is successfully validated using cyclic voltammetry data of four typical electrode materials. Surprisingly, it is found that the reaction rate is the limiting factor for the fast charging performance in all materials analyzed. The new model is believed to facilitate electrode design and accelerate the development of the next generations of fast-charging batteries.

Summary: The electrochemical behavior of rifampicin, an anti-tuberculosis drug, was studied in a water/ethanol mixture. The drug was found to undergo two-step oxidation, with the first step being a reversible oxidation of the hydroquinone moiety and the second step being an irreversible oxidation of the phenolic ring. The adsorption activity and diffusion coefficient of rifampicin were also determined, indicating that the first oxidation step is diffusion-controlled and the second step is a diffusion/adsorption control process. The oxidation of rifampicin was found to be complex and highly pH-dependent, with different rates of reaction observed for different drugs used in combination therapy.

Summary: In this study, a new convergent paired electro-organic synthesis method for sulfonamide derivatives was introduced, which follows the principles of green chemistry and does not require catalysts, oxidants, halogens, or amines. Instead of using toxic amine compounds, an innovative mechanism based on the reduction of nitro compounds and in-situ production of amine compounds was used. The mechanism involves cathodic reduction of nitro compounds to hydroxylamine compounds and anodic oxidation of hydroxylamine compounds to nitroso compounds.
