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. SONG Yanlin’s team from the Institute of Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with collaborators from Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Nanyang Technological University, and Tianjin University, proposed a new film transfer strategy named as drop-printing, which has potential applications in bioelectronics, flexible displays, and micro-/nano-manufacturing.
A research team led by Prof. CAO Rong from Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a strategy that transforms the imine units in covalent organic frameworks from electronic recombination centers into active catalytic sites for the oxygen reduction reaction.
Researchers from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of New South Wales achieved living radical polymerization using low-toxicity copper indium selenide (CuInSe2) quantum dots, extending PET-RAFT excitation into the SWIR region at 1,050 nm.
