Summary: This study focuses on the allowed parameter space of the scalar sector in the superweak extension of the standard model (SM). The allowed region is determined by conditions such as vacuum stability, perturbativity up to the Planck scale, and the Higgs boson's pole mass falling within the experimentally measured range. The study utilizes renormalization group equations and quantum corrections at two-loop accuracy, and examines the dependence on the Yukawa couplings of sterile neutrinos.

Summary: An anion synergistic strategy is developed to manipulate the solvation structure and boost the electrochemical performance of high-voltage lithium batteries. The solvation structure is found to enhance the transport kinetics of Li+ effectively and favor the formation of an inorganic-rich interphase. The corrosion of the Al collector is effectively retarded by a cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) constructed by the decomposition of DFBOP-.

Summary: Cells maintain a narrow physiological pH by exchanging intracellular bicarbonate for extracellular chloride. The cryo-EM structures of human anion exchanger 2 (AE2) in five major operating states and one transitional state were determined, collectively demonstrating the process of pH-balancing. Critical structural features were identified, revealing an interlock mechanism for interactions among different domains of AE2 and the self-inhibitory effect of a loop structure. These findings provide insights into the dynamic process of anion exchange across membranes and the pH-sensitive pH-rebalancing activity of AE2.

Summary: An organic-inorganic hybrid ferroelectric, (C6H5CH2CH2NH3)2[HgI4], undergoes a structural phase transition near room temperature, triggered by a flip of half the organic cations and an order-disorder transition of the inorganic anions, and may be regarded as a displacive-type ferroelectric.

Summary: This article showcases how compounds based on a little-known anionic 6-cyanido building block can vary their network architecture through interactions with alkali metal cations in coordination polymers. The study presents the synthesis and structural analysis of anionic 6-cyanido tungstates with different alkali heterocation systems, highlighting the enhanced interactions resulting from the presence of soft metal cations. The complex structures formed as a result of these interactions have a higher number of intermolecular interactions and lower solubility compared to homocationic salts.

Summary: The metal-free bond activation by carboranyl diphosphine 1-(PBu2)-Bu-t-2-(PPr2)-Pr-i-C2B10H10 involves the formal oxidation of phosphine groups and concomitant reduction of the boron cage in reactions with main group hydrides and alcohols. This new approach is driven by the cooperation between electron-donating exohedral substituents and electron-accepting cluster, and is reminiscent of oxidative addition to transition metal centers.

Summary: The synthesis of well-defined heterometallic complexes is a challenging frontier in inorganic chemistry. A new approach involving sequential insertion of electrophilic metal fragments into electron-rich Ru-B bonds has been reported, leading to the selective preparation of bimetallic and trimetallic complexes. Structural and theoretical analysis of chemical bonding features within Ru-B-B-Cu and Ru-B-B-Pd fragments were presented.

Summary: In this study, we report the reactivity of carboranyl diphosphine with terminal alkynes, resulting in the formation of boron-containing phosphacycles. The reaction combines the activation of electron-deficient alkynes by phosphine groups and the redox behavior of carborane clusters, leading to the formation of a fused product of alkenylphosphonium cycle and reduced carborane cluster.

Summary: We describe the synthesis and characterization of a nickel(II) complex with a dicarboranyl CNC dianionic pincer ligand, which can activate acetonitrile through C-C bond cleavage. By deprotonating the relatively acidic C-H bond of coordinated acetonitrile with potassium t-butoxide, a C-bound cyanomethylene ligand is formed at the metal center. Unlike most previously characterized Ni(II) cyanoalkyls, this complex can rapidly transform under aerobic conditions at room temperature to form CNC-ligated nickel(II) cyanide, indicating facile cleavage of the C-CN bond. The cyanoalkyl and cyanide complexes were isolated in excellent yields and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Summary: Icosahedral closo-dodecaboranes have the ability to accept two electrons, transforming into a dianionic nido-cluster. This transformation can be used for electron storage, bond activation, or altering coordination to metal cations. In this feature article, we present cases demonstrating the redox activity of carborane leading to unique products. We emphasize the impact of exohedral substituents on reactivity and product stability through conjugation with the cluster.

Summary: This work presents the synthesis and structural characterization of the free ortho-carboranyl [C2B10H11](-) and the doubly deprotonated 1,1'-bis(o-carborane) anion [C2B10H10](2)(2-), which are important intermediates in carborane chemistry. The study represents the first examples of a stable, discrete C(H)-deprotonated carborane anion and a discrete molecular dicarbanion, respectively. These findings contribute to the understanding of carbon vertex chemistry in carborane clusters.
