SHEN Qilong's lab from the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with Professor K. N. Houk from the University of California, Los Angeles, provided solid evidence that the Ullmann-type reaction might proceed via a Cu(I)/Cu(III)/Cu(II)/Cu(III)/Cu(I) catalytic cycle.
A research team led by Prof. YUAN Junying and Prof. LIU Cong from the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed that amyloid fibrils formed by necroptosis mediators, RIPK1 and RIPK3, don’t just form within dying cells, they can also escape the cell and trigger necroptotic death in neighboring cells.
A team led by Prof. YIN Heng from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences identified the key glycosyltransferase that catalyzes the conversion of Reb D to Reb M, and revealed the molecular mechanism underlying its substrate regioselectivity.
Prof. WU Mingyan from Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and collaborators synthesized a stable microporous hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF-TDBB) with electrostatic potential matching pores for hydrofluoroethanes, realizing one-step C2F6 purification from CF3CH2F/CF3CHF2/C2F6 mixture.
A research group led by Prof. HUANG Weiguo from Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reported the autonomous signaling and recording of electrical and photodegradation in dielectric polymers by leveraging the fluorescent response of free-radical indicators.
Prof. SONG Yanlin and Prof. WANG Yang's group from the Institute of Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Prof. ZHOU Huanping from Peking University developed a surface diffusion engineering technique which improves the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells.
