Potential of Dairy Coproducts in Wood Modification: Dimensional Stability and Mechanical Properties
Abstract Chemical modification of wood using citric acid and polyols is a promising biosourced route to improve dimensional stability. However, conventional polyols can be costly and are derived from food-grade resources. Dairy coproducts such as whey and whey ultrafiltration per...

UnlockingSimple Hydroboranes for Selective C–HBorylation of (Hetero)arenes
Abstract Control of borane speciation through Me2PhN·BH3 formation enables HBcat-mediated, metal-free C–H borylation of (hetero)arenes via an electrophilic aromatic substitution pathway. The process operates without external catalysts or additives and provides a sustainable platf...
