Multimedia Distribution and Transfer of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) Surrounding Two Fluorochemical Manufacturing Facilities in Fuxin, China.

TL;DR: The concentrations of individual PFASs in air, outdoor settled dust, and surface river water decreased exponentially as the distance increases from the FMPs, whereas the concentrations of short-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) remained high in the surface water 38 km away.

Silver-catalyzed C-H trifluoromethylation of arenes using trifluoroacetic acid as the trifluoromethylating reagent.

TL;DR: This reaction not only provides a new protocol for aryl C-H trifluoromethylation, but the generation of CF3· from TFA may prove useful in other contexts and could potentially be extended to other triffluorometHylation reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel process for recycling and resynthesizing LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 from the cathode scraps intended for lithium-ion batteries.

TL;DR: Electrochemical tests show that the initial charge and discharge capacities of the resynthesized LiNi1/3Co 1/3Mn1/ 3O2 are 201 mAh g(-)(1) and 155.4 m Ah g(-1) (2.8-4.5 V, 0.1C), respectively.

A novel precursor for per(poly)fluoroalkyl heterocycles from N-aryl per(poly)fluoroalkyl imidoyl iodides

TL;DR: In this paper, the cross coupling products of N-aryl per(poly)fluoroalkyl imidoyl iodides with acetylenes, could be used as novel precursors to synthesize fluorinated heterocycles such as pyrazoles and pyrimidines.
