Abstract Increasing the chemical diversity of organic semiconductors is essential to develop efficient electronic devices. In particular, the replacement of carbon-carbon (C−C) bonds with isoelectronic boron-nitrogen (B−N) bonds allows prec... Read More
Abstract Flexible organic electronics can be used to create wearable devices but the synthesis of organic electronic materials typically involves hazardous solvents, creates toxic by-products and has various other environmental and economic... Read More
Abstract Millions of tons of acetyl derivatives such as acetic acid and acetic anhydride are produced each year. These building blocks of chemical industry are elaborated into esters, amides, and eventually polymer materials, pharmaceutical... Read More
Abstract The versatile applications of nitrile have led to the widespread use of nitrile activation in the synthesis of pharmacologically and industrially valuable compounds. We reported the activation of nitriles using mononuclear cobalt(I... Read More
Nine UNIST researchers have once again distinguished themselves with inclusion in the prestigious ‘Highly Cited Researchers (HCR)’ for 2023. This accomplishment places UNIST as the second-highest university in South Korea, follo... Read More
Abstract An unprecedented but useful functionality of perfluoroarenes to enable exciton scissoring in photomultiplication-type organic photodiodes (PM-OPDs) is reported. Perfluoroarenes that are covalently connected to polymer donors via a... Read More
Abstract Senolytics, which eliminate senescent cells from tissues, represent an emerging therapeutic strategy for various age-related diseases. Most senolytics target antiapoptotic proteins, which are overexpressed in senescent cells, limit... Read More
Normally when we think of a rolling object, we tend to imagine a cylinder (like a bicycle wheel) or a sphere (like a tennis ball) that will always follow a straight path when rolling. However, the world of mathematics and science is always... Read More
Abstract Lysosomes remain powerful organelles and important targets for cancer therapy because cancer cell proliferation is greatly dependent on effective lysosomal function. Recent studies have shown that lysosomal membrane permeabilizatio... Read More
Abstract A few metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), which typically use strong acids as proton sources, display superprotonic conductivity (≈10−1 S cm−1); however, they are rare due to the instability of MOFs in highly acidic conditions. For th... Read More
