TL;DR: Employing electron-deficient aryl azides renders the copper nitrene species competent for alkane amination and alkene aziridination, lending further credence to the intermediacy of this species in proposed nitrene-transfer mechanisms.

TL;DR: This study provides an alternative explanation for the competence of formally CuIII species in transformations that are traditionally described as metal-centered, 2-electron CuI/CuIII redox processes.

TL;DR: A charge transfer between the bulk oxygen anions and the surface transition metal cations under ~100 oC, which is attributed to the thermally-driven redistribution of Li ions is observed, highlighting the non-equilibrium state and dynamic nature of the LMR material at deeply delithiated state upon a mild temperature perturbation.

TL;DR: The performance of the TES spectrometer is described in terms of its energy resolution and count-rate capability and its utility as a high throughput detector for synchrotron-based X-ray spectroscopy is demonstrated.

TL;DR: Detailed structural measurements demonstrate that the new variant of barlowite maintains hexagonal symmetry at low temperatures with an arrangement of distorted and undistorted kagome triangles, for which numerical simulations predict a pinwheel valence bond crystal (VBC) state instead of a QSL.
