Noncentrosymmetric Manganese Bismuth Thiocyanate Perovskites

Abstract Symmetry-lowering orderings in perovskites can produce a wide range of functions. Thiocyanate based perovskites, AM(SCN)3, have orderings distinct from those of the atomic oxides, enabling new functional behavior. We report four new defect-ordered manganese thiocyanate p...

Rare‐Earth Multivariate Metal–Organic Frameworks: Cationic Radius Biased Compositional Control and Property Tuning

ABSTRACT The synthesis of a multivariate metal–organic framework (MTV‐MOF) family, [Ln(DNNDI) 1.5 ] n ( UoB‐116 ), is reported (DNNDI: N , N' ‐bis(dinicotinate)‐1,4,5,8‐naphthalenetetracarboxydiimide). UoB‐116(Ln) is formed by 15 different metals (Ln = Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu,...

Scalable Synthesisof a Masked Thiophenol as an Air-Stable,Odorless Intermediate to the Aurora Kinase Inhibitor Tozasertib (VX-680)

Abstract The use of thiophenols on process scales is fraught with challenges relating to their toxicity, malodor, and air sensitivity. We previously demonstrated that the Ni-catalyzed C–S coupling of aryl iodides and thiourea provides a discovery-scale route to S-aryl isothiouron...
