α-C chiral sulfones are privileged building blocks widely found in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, natural products, and ligands. Although many nucleophilic or electrophilic protocols have been developed for their construction, radical-based asymmetric…
Developing advanced catalysts with rapid hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) kinetics in alkaline media is vital for hydrogen production. Through the d–p orbital hybridization effect, the electronic structure and H* adsorption…
Herein we report a novel approach for diversification of tetraphenylene via regioselective late-stage iodination followed by atom(s) insertion into the resulting cyclic iodonium salts. Thus, the steric hindrance effect of…
Lithium-rich cathode materials are some of the most promising choices for lithium-ion batteries due to their excellent energy density (>900 W h kg−1). However, severe voltage/capacity degradation during cycling has…
Organic carbonyl electrode materials (OCEMs) have shown great promise for high-performance lithium batteries due to their high capacity, renewability, and environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, the severe dissolution of these materials in…
Lithium–carbon dioxide (Li–CO2) batteries have attracted much attention due to their high theoretical energy density and reversible CO2 reduction/evolution process. However, the wide bandgap insulating discharge product Li2CO3 is difficult…

Using supramolecular chiral cages to create a favorable chiral environment can effectively address the limitations of traditional metal asymmetric catalysis in controlling chiral catalytically active centers. However, achieving harmonious interactions…
The simultaneous regulation of particle size, surface coordinated environment and composition for Pt-based intermetallic compound (Pt-IMC) nanoparticles to manipulate their reactivity for energy storage is of great importance. Herein, we…
While the quantum yields of photosensitiser-derived one-electron-reduced species (OERSs) significantly impact the overall efficiencies of various redox-photosensitised photocatalytic reactions, the primary factors that influence them remain unclear. In this study,…
