Flash Communication: Lithium 1,4-Diazine Triple Ion Radical Complexes─Structural Isolation and Trends in Spin Delocalization

Abstract A series of dilithium 1,4-diazine radical anion complexes were synthesized as analogs to alkali triple ion radical complexes. The solid-state structures display bond metrics consistent with single-electron reduction of the bridged diazine. EPR analysis shows diazine-loca...

Visualizing Metabolism: Lipid-Based Raman Nanoreporters as an Enabling Platform for Metabolic Imaging and Precision Medicine

Abstract Lipid-based Raman reporters represent a promising but still developing class of metabolic sensors. This review reports lipid nanoparticles and lipid conjugated inorganic nanoparticles as Raman-active systems capable of decoding cellular metabolism with spatial and chemic...

Reproducibility, Replicability, and Research Quality in Homogeneous Catalysis

Abstract Researchers from all sectors of homogeneous catalysis convened in response to concerns regarding reproducibility in science to analyze the issue and provide recommendations. In addition to an in-person workshop, the group engaged the broader homogeneous catalysis communi...
