Lithium-sulphur batteries with a high theoretical energy density are regarded as promising energy storage devices for electric vehicles and large-scale electricity storage. However, the low active material utilization, low sulphur loading and poor cycling stability restrict their practical applications. Herein
Glymes (i.e. glycol diethers) were explored as alternative benign solvents for enzymatic reactions, specifically the lipase-catalyzed transesterification. Long-chain glymes were found highly compatible with immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B (iCALB), leading to higher enzyme activities and stabilities than t-butanol and

The physical content of and, in particular, the nonlinear contributions from the Langevin-Debye model are illustrated using two applications. First, we provide an improvement in the Langevin-Debye model currently used in some implicit solvent models for computer simulations of solvation
AKB-9778 is a small-molecule competitive inhibitor of vascular endothelial-protein tyrosine phosphatase (VE-PTP) that promotes Tie2 activation and reduces vascular leakage and neovascularization in mouse models. The purpose of this study was to test the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and biological activity
A palladium-catalyzed crossed biaryl coupling/reduction sequence enables the formation of meta-substituted biaryls via solvent-mediated arylpalladium(II) reduction. Isotope labeling studies determined that the decomposition of 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) is indeed involved in the reductive process.
