Summary: A series of redox-responsive ferrocenyl-substituted boranes and boronic esters were synthesized, and the oxidation of the ferrocenyl ligand to the ferrocenium increased the Lewis acidity beyond the strength of SbF5. This was investigated experimentally and computationally, and the resulting highly Lewis acidic boron compounds were used for catalytic C-F and S-F bond activation.

Summary: The conversion of easily available trifluoromethylarenes through C-F bond activation provides a rapid pathway for accessing difluorobenzylic substructures, which is important in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. However, the current advances in this field have been limited to the construction of C-C-(H) bonds, thus restricting the diversity of accessible motifs. The selective formation of a carbon-heteroatom bond via C-F bond functionalization remains a challenging synthetic task, but it enables the direct synthesis of medicinally interesting aryldifluoromethyl ether [ArCF2X- (X= S, O, or Se)] scaffolds.

Summary: Novel C-F-S-H/PCE nanocomposites were successfully synthesized by incorporating Fe3+ during the synthesis of C-S-H/PCE. These nanocomposites showed high-efficiency seeding effect on early cement hydration due to the higher absorption of PCE and smaller particle size of nano-seeds compared to traditional C-S-H/PCE nanocomposites. The best seeding effect was observed when the Ca/Si and Fe/Si ratios were 1.0 and 0.03 respectively.

Summary: This study integrated S haplotypes identified in Korean radish breeding lines into a unified nomenclature system. By comparing nucleotide sequences of SRK and SLG genes reported by different research groups, it was found that most S haplotypes showed high similarity with sequences reported by other groups.

Summary: This study compares the performance of three GluN2B-targeting radioligands in non-human primates. All radiotracers show good brain uptake and distribution, with (S)-[F-18]OF-NB1 showing particularly promising imaging characteristics for potential translation into humans. However, further investigation is needed to understand the unexpected displaceable binding in the cerebellum for these compounds.

Summary: The crystallinity of bottlebrush polymers is related to the length of the side chains, but the constraints imposed by trapped main chain entanglements affect the complete crystallization of all side chains. A new parameter, f(c), is introduced to better describe the crystallinity of bottlebrush polymers. The melting enthalpy and the number of alkyl groups in side chains show a linear relationship, indicating that f(c) remains essentially unchanged when the main chain structure and grafting degree are the same but the side chain lengths are different.

Summary: This paper proposes an energy-efficient receiver with a speed of 10-26 Gb/s, which incorporates a dual-feedback nested loop clock and data recovery circuit (DF-CDR). By combining a direct modulation path on voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and phase interpolator (PI)-based phase rotator, it improves high-frequency jitter tolerance significantly. It also introduces an edge-first equalization scheme to reduce power and hardware overhead, enabling adaptive equalization and background offset calibration.
