TL;DR: The first example of an electrochemical approach in promoting gold-catalyzed oxidative coupling of terminal alkynes is reported, which potentiates the versatility of gold redox chemistry through the utilization of electrochemical oxidative conditions.

TL;DR: It is found that the IgG1 antibody can be digested completely by the IdeS protease in aqueous microdroplets in 250 microseconds, a 7.5 million-fold improvement in speed in comparison to traditional digestion in bulk solution (>30 min).

TL;DR: A synergistic gold-iron (Au-Fe) catalytic system was developed for sequential alkyne hydration and vinyl Au addition to aldehydes or ketones, giving successful macrocyclization with excellent yields, which highlights the great potential of this new crossed aldol strategy in challenging target molecule synthesis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first example of alkyne trifunctionalization through simultaneous construction of C-C, C-O, and C-N bonds via gold catalysis was reported.

TL;DR: Various analyte molecules such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and rutin as well as peptide glutathione in low quantity were successfully quantified using a novel approach, based on electrochemistry (EC) combined with mass spectrometry (MS), that can be applicable to mixture analysis.
