DOI: 10.1002/ejic.202500012
Abstract: Semi‐flexible bidentate Lewis acids based on the biphenylene backbone were synthesized by selective anti‐Markownikow hydroborations using dicyclohexylborane. In addition, initial host‐guest chemistry experiments were carried out on the complexation of the monodentate bases PMe3 and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00397-025-01510-1
Abstract: Capillary thinning of polymeric fluids is central to biological and industrial processes, yet the mechanisms governing thinning dynamics remain unresolved, especially for semi-flexible polymers. Using ideal solutions of semi-flexible DNA, we validate a phenomenological model… read more here.
