However, the limitation of molecular weight (MW) presents a barrier to their applications. The synthesis of polyesters with high MW by the ring-opening copolymerization (ROCOP) of epoxides and cyclic anhydrides is promising but rare and challenging. Herein, we report a series of air-stable, hydrogen-bond-functionalized imidazole catalysts for the copolymerization. These catalysts can produce polyesters (4 examples) using cyclohexane oxide (CHO), propylene oxide (PO), phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE), 4-vinyl-1-cyclohexene 1,2-epoxide (VCHO), and phthalic anhydride (PA) with record-high MW: <i>M</i><sub>n</sub> = 171.2 kDa for poly(CHO-<i>alt</i>-PA), <i>M</i><sub>n</sub> = 518.5 kDa for poly(PO-<i>alt</i>-PA), <i>M</i><sub>n</sub> = 100.5 kDa for poly(PGE-<i>alt</i>-PA), and <i>M</i><sub>n</sub> = 236.4 kDa for poly(VCHO-<i>alt</i>-PA). Furthermore, it can achieve an unprecedented efficiency of 15.6 kg of polyester/g of catalyst at a molar ratio of catalyst/PA/PO = 1:40000:60000. The record-high MW achieved can be attributed to the unique anionic-cationic coexisting ROCOP mechanism, which can reduce transesterification, chain transfer, and annulation side reactions. All high <i>M</i><sub>n</sub> polyesters showed excellent thermal stability, high tensile strength, and a Young’s modulus comparable to some commodity thermoplastics like polystyrene and polylactic acid.","PeriodicalId":49,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Chemical Society","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143713725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This presents a particularly formidable obstacle in the creation of three-dimensional (3D) structured chiral all-inorganic perovskites, further complicated by their achiral crystalline space groups. In this report, we successfully synthesized right- or left-handed (P/M) chiral 3D P/M-CsPbX<sub>3</sub> (X = Cl, Cl–Br, Br, Br–I) perovskite subnanowires (SNWs), in which Pb(II) can be partially substituted by hetero ions, such as Cu(II), Sn(II), and Mn(II). The selective control of the SNW handedness was achieved through the strategic incorporation of trace chiral amine enantiomers. The chiroptical activity arises from the helical structure of the SNWs. The mechanisms underlying the formation of this chiral structure were systematically investigated and interpreted by using a thermodynamic model. We utilized the chiral P/M-CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> SNWs to fabricate circularly polarized light (CPL) photodetectors, which exhibited an impressive photocurrent dissymmetry factor (<i>g</i><sub>Iph</sub>) of 0.75. In the field of spin light-emitting diodes (spin-LEDs), circularly polarized electroluminescence (CPEL) was accomplished by employing the SNWs as a dual-functional material that provides both chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) and CPL emission capabilities.","PeriodicalId":49,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Chemical Society","volume":"57 14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143713518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the notorious shuttle behavior of sodium polysulfides (NaPS) and uncontrollable dendrite growth lead to the poor cycle stability of RT Na–S cells. In this work, we report the use of 1,2-dimethoxypropane (DMP) and 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl ether (TFTFE) as inner solvent and outer diluent, respectively, in a localized high-concentration electrolyte system. Impressively, the asymmetric DMP as the inner solvent, introduced to replace the conventional solvent 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME), shields NaPS effectively from incorporation into the inner solvation structure due to the extra methyl groups in the molecular structure. Furthermore, the TFTFE diluent, which contains electron-withdrawing perfluoro segments (−CF<sub>3</sub>– and −CF<sub>2</sub>−), exhibits significantly low solvation power. Consequently, the outer sheath TFTFE diluent further minimizes NaPS dissolution, thereby enhancing the cycle stability. This inner–outer sheath synergistic effect leads to the formation of highly effective cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) and solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layers simultaneously, significantly alleviating the shuttle effect and reducing the side reactions between NaPS and sodium metal. Remarkably, the Na–S cells with the designed electrolyte present long-cycling reversibility with 530 mAh g<sup>–1</sup> over 600 cycles at a C/2 rate and a low capacity decay rate of 0.077% per cycle. This study provides a profound understanding of the electrolyte structure involving NaPS and offers a firm basis for the rational design of electrolytes for rechargeable metal–sulfur battery systems.","PeriodicalId":49,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Chemical Society","volume":"86 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143703085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using molecular dynamics and high-level extensive multistate broken-symmetry quantum mechanical/molecular mechanics calculations (QM/MM), we elucidated both the mechanism and radical control in catalysis, identifying a key step characterized by the formation of an unusual metastable deprotonated ribose radical intermediate. This intermediate is thermodynamically stabilized by spin-charge exchange–correlation interactions─a quantum Coulombic effect. The magnitude of this stabilization is such that the radical displays acidity two to six p<i>K</i><sub>a</sub> units lower than that of closed-shell ribose.

To improve the efficiency, we explored the two human galactosyltransferase (β3GalT5) isozymes in cancer cells for this reaction and found that isozyme 1 (β3GalT5–1) is more active than isozyme 2 (β3GalT5–2). We then identified a common soluble domain of the two β3GalT5 isozymes as a candidate and evaluated the activity and substrate specificity of the glycosylated and nonglycosylated glycoforms. The glycoforms expressed in Sf9 cells were selected, and a site-specific alanine scan was performed to identify S66A β3GalT5 variant with 10-fold more efficiency than LgtD for the synthesis of globo-series glycans.
