Controlling the intercomponent energy-transfer pattern in light-harvesting trimetallic complexes of Fe(II), Ru(II), and Os(II)
The design strategy, photophysics, energy transfer and stimuli-responsive behaviors of homo- and hetero-trimetallic complexes of Fe(II), Ru(II), and Os(II) metals based on asymmetric bipyridine-terpyridine type bridging ligands are reviewed.
The potential of H2 evolution and CO2 mitigation from photochemical to electrochemical perspectives
Environmental pollution and energy concerns have reached a critical inflection point, with demands for swift and strategic intervention.

Ligand-responsive ON–OFF anion transport using copper-caged acylhydrazone transporters
Reversibly-gated stimuli-responsive acylhydrazone-based anion transporters are reported. Acylhydrazone-copper complexation makes hydrazone protons unavailable for binding and transport, whilst decomplexation using Na2EDTA activates the ion transport.

Native Carboxylate-Assisted Enantioselective C-H Annulations with Allenes and 1,3-Dienes on Ferrocene
Nucleopalladation strategy towards regioselective N-alkylation of indoles with unactivated olefins
A regioselective intermolecular nucleopalladation of indolines with unactivated olefins followed by oxidation is developed to access valuable N-alkyl indoles in high yields.
Acylation of N-Heterocycles via Ligand to Metal Charge Transfer on Bismuth(III)
Harnessing conserved G-quadruplexes for fluorescence detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
A fluorometric method for detecting the conserved G-quadruplex (GQ) motif in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) genome with high specificity and minimal interference, leveraging duplex-to-GQ reliable conformational polymorphism (GQ-RCP).
A planar pentacoordinate sulfur atom
Planar pentacoordinate sulfur atoms (ppS) are rare, with only one example experimentally verified to date.
Highly regio- and diastereoselective (3+3)-cycloannulation of carbonyl ylides and 2-(1-alkynyl)-2-alken-1-ones enabled by silver catalysis
We report the first silver-catalyzed synthesis of 3,4-fused furans featuring an oxa-bridged motif, delivering products in good to high yields with excellent regio- and diastereoselectivities across a broad substrate scope.
