TL;DR: Structurally simple and inexpensive chiral tridentate ligands were employed for substantially advancing the purely chemical dynamic kinetic resolution of unprotected racemic tailor-made α-amino acids, enabling the first DKR of TM-α-AAs bearing tertiary alkyl chains as well as multiple unprotected functional groups.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel ZnFe2O4 hollow spheres constructed by numerous ZnF2O 4 nanoparticles are successfully prepared via a simple one-step hydrothermal treatment and subsequent calcination, in which carbon sheets act as the template.

TL;DR: The fluorescent enhancement property of the photonic nitrocellulose is used to increase the fluorescent intensity for multiplex detection of two cancer biomarkers and label-free detection of human immunoglobin G based on the structure color of the photographer's nitro cellulose.

TL;DR: A Cp*Rh(III)-catalyzed directed C−H methylation of quinoline N-oxides at the C-8 position using commercially available organotrifluoroborates as reagents features perfect regioselectivity, relatively mild reaction conditions, and diverse functional group tolerance with good to excellent yields.

TL;DR: In this paper, a composite-molten-salt (CMS) method was used to synthesize carbon nanospheres with diameters ∼200nm for methanol and ethanol electro-oxidation in alkaline media.
