A Circular and Tacticity‐Independent Crystalline Mono‐Substituted Nylon‐6 Platform: Unexpected Large Positional Effects on Crystallizability and Performance

Seeking recyclable, more sustainable alternatives to nylon 6 has drawn much attention, but achieving its variants with both crystallinity and enhanced recyclability still remains a challenge. Here, by utilizing bio-derivable mono-substituted racemic lactam monomers, we reveal surprisingly large effects of methyl substitution positions on the nylon-6 backbone on crystallizability, thermomechanical performance, and recyclability of the resulting atactic nylon-6 variants. While γ-methyl substitution gives an amorphous nylon, all other four methyl-substitution positions (α, β, δ, and ε) afford, unexpectedly, crystalline nylons with melting temperatures ranging from 145°C to 200°C and tunable mechanical performance from being stiff and strong (α, ε) to ductile (β, δ). Investigations reveal that the crystallinity of atactic nylons arises independently of stereoregularity, which is driven by the amide backbone with robust hydrogen-bonding interactions and countered by the chain flexibility regulated by the substitution position. These nylons can be chemically recycled back to their parent monomers with high isolated yields up to 92%, enabling a circular, tacticity-independent crystalline nylon platform.

Structure–Activity Relationships of Inactive‐Conformation Binding EGFR Inhibitors: Linking the ATP and Allosteric Pockets

ABSTRACT The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase is an important therapeutic target in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the continual emergence of resistance mutations in the treatment of EGFR mutation‐positive NSCLC with currently approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors warrants the development of next‐generation inhibitors. Since research for ATP‐competitive EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that extend into the back pocket has been neglected in the recent past, we survey the extent to which such binding functional groups can be incorporated into an ATP‐site imidazole scaffold. We find thatmeta‐substituted amide linkers derivatized with fluorine in 2,6‐positions and/or a hydroxy group in 3‐position of the back pocket phenyl exhibit the highest potency. Structural insights into how the back pocket groups are bound through points of connection provide new directions for the discovery and optimization of inactive conformation targeting agents in EGFR and other kinases.

Exploration of Nirmatrelvir Derivatives as Optimized SARS‐CoV‐2 Antivirals

Nirmatrelvir (NMV) is a SARS‐CoV‐2 antiviral component of the approved COVID‐19 therapeutic Paxlovid. It is a reversible covalent inhibitor of SARS‐CoV‐2 main protease (M Pro ) that is effluxed from human cells by P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp). To identify NMV analogs with improved potency and reduced P‐gp efflux, a structure–activity relationship campaign was conducted. Warheads alternative to nitrile for engaging the active site cysteine were tested showing aldehyde and dichloroacetamide with better enzyme inhibition potency. Crystal structure of MPI‐136−M Pro shows its aldehyde warhead forming a thiohemiacetal with active Cys145 of M Pro . Several S4 binders were explored revealing that an O‐to‐S shift at the N ‐terminal amide leads to better enzyme inhibition. By exploring different combinations of S2, S3, and S4 binders, two inhibitors with better enzyme inhibition potency than NMV were found. Crystal structure of MPI‐148, with ( S )‐2‐azaspiro[4,5]decane‐3‐carboxylate as an alternative S2 binder, shows extensive hydrogen‐bond networks for locking the inhibitor in active site, explaining high affinity of NMV analogs. Further characterization of cellular M Pro engagement and antiviral potency against SARS‐CoV‐2 revealed four inhibitors with greater potency than NMV in P‐gp‐expressing cells. Studies with the P‐gp inhibitor CP‐100356 showed that these compounds were less sensitive to P‐gp inhibition than NMV, consistent with reduced P‐gp‐mediated efflux.

Electrocatalytic CN Coupling: Advances in Urea Synthesis and Opportunities for Alternative Products

Urea is an essential fertilizer produced through the industrial synthesis of ammonia (NH 3 ) via the Haber–Bosch process, which contributes ≈1.2% of global annual CO 2 emissions. Electrocatalytic urea synthesis under ambient conditions via CN coupling from CO 2 and nitrogen species such as nitrate (NO 3 − ), nitrite (NO 2 − ), nitric oxide (NO), and nitrogen gas (N 2 ) has gained interest as a more sustainable route. However, challenges remain due to the unclear reaction pathways for urea formation, competing reactions, and the complexity of the resulting product matrix. This review highlights recent advances in catalyst design, urea quantification, and intermediate identification in the CN coupling reaction for electrocatalytic urea synthesis. Furthermore, this review explores future prospects for industrial CN coupling, considering potential nitrogen and carbon sources and examining alternative CN coupling products, such as amides and amines.

Hydrogen Bond Benchmark: Focal‐Point Analysis and Assessment of DFT Functionals

We performed a hierarchical, convergent ab initio benchmark study and systematically analyzed the performance of density functional approximations for describing hydrogen bonds in small neutral, cationic, and anionic complexes, as well as in larger systems involving amide, urea, deltamide, and squaramide moieties. Focal point analyses (FPA), extrapolating to the ab initio limit, were carried out using correlated wave function methods up to CCSDT(Q) for the small complexes and CCSD(T) for the larger systems, together with correlation-consistent Gaussian basis sets up to the complete basis set limit. Optimized geometries and vibrational frequencies were obtained at the CCSD(T) level. The resulting FPA hydrogen-bond energies converge within a few tenths of a kcal mol −1 . These reference data were used to evaluate 60 density functionals (including 12 dispersion-corrected), spanning the local-density approximation (LDA), generalized gradient approximations (GGAs), meta-GGAs, hybrids, meta-hybrids, double-hybrids, and range-separated hybrids. Overall, the meta-hybrid M06-2X provides the best performance for both hydrogen bond energies and geometries, while the dispersion-corrected GGAs BLYP-D3(BJ) and BLYP-D4 also yield accurate hydrogen-bond data and can serve as cost-effective options for studying large and complex systems.

Ionic Liquid Aided [ 11 C]CO Fixation for Synthesis of 11 C‐carbonyls

Tributyl(ethyl)phosphonium oxopentenolate ([P 4442 ][Pen]) is an ionic liquid developed to capture CO and has shown ability to catalyze carbonylation reactions in organic chemistry. Carbon-11 ( 11 C, t 1/2 =20.4 min) labeled CO is a highly versatile building block for the synthesis of positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers that are applied for medical imaging. The use of [ 11 C]CO is limited by its low solubility in organic solvents. Herein, we report a proof-of-concept study evaluating a new method to prepare 11 C-labeled amides, ureas and carbamates via reaction of [ 11 C]CO in [P 4442 ][Pen] and applied for fully automated radiosyntheses of Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors, [ 11 C]evobrutinib and [ 11 C]ibrutinib.

The structural basis for the broad aldehyde specificity of the aminoaldehyde dehydrogenase PauC from the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Abstract Despite significant differences in size and formal charge, the aldehyde dehydrogenasePaPauC (PA5312) fromPseudomonas aeruginosaPAO1 efficiently catalyzes the NAD + ‐dependent oxidation of the aminoaldehydes formed in polyamines degradation. We report here thatPaPauC also oxidizes 4‐guanidinebutyraldehyde, formed in one arginine degradation pathway, trimethylaminobutyraldehyde, of unknown metabolic origin, and indole‐3‐acetaldehyde, a precursor of the plant growth‐promoting hormone indoleacetic acid.PaPauC has been proposed as a potential target for combatingP. aeruginosa. However, understanding its structure–function relationships, crucial for developing specific inhibitors, is lacking. Using X‐ray crystallography, we identified the structural characteristics that determinePaPauC broad aldehyde specificity: a spacious aldehyde‐entrance tunnel and six active‐site residues. Docking simulations, site‐directed mutagenesis, and kinetic analyses support the interactions of Lys479 with glutamylated aminoaldehydes; Phe169, Trp176, and Phe467 with amino and guanidinium groups through cation–π interactions and with the indole group via NH–π and CH–π interactions; Asp459 with amino and indole groups; and Thr303 with amide and guanidinium groups. Exploiting the distinctive structural features of thePaPauC active site could aid in developing specific inhibitors to combatP. aeruginosainfections in humans and animals, as well as in preventing its colonization of plants, which are abundantP. aeruginosareservoirs and, therefore, a significant source of human infections.

Refining Microstructures in Additively Manufactured Al/Cu Gradients Through TiB 2 Inclusions

Here, the additive manufacture of compositionally graded Al/Cu parts by laser engineered net shaping (LENS) is demonstrated. The use of a blue light build laser enabled deposition on a Cu substrate. The thermal gradient and rapid solidification inherent to selective laser melting enabled mass transport of Cu up to 4 mm from a Cu substrate through a pure Al deposition, providing a means of producing gradients with finer step sizes than the printed layer thicknesses. Divorcing gradient continuity from layer or particle size makes LENS a potentially enabling technology for the manufacture of graded density impactors for ramp compression experiments. Printing graded structures with pure Al, however, was prevented by the growth of Al 2 Cu 3 dendrites and acicular grains amid a matrix of Al 2 Cu. A combination of adding TiB 2 grain refining powder and actively varying print layer composition suppressed the dendritic growth mode and produced an equiaxed microstructure in a compositionally graded part. Material phase was characterized for crystal structure and nanoindentation hardness to enable a discussion of phase evolution in the rapidly solidifying melt pool of a LENS print.

High-performance n-Type Polymers Based on Multiple Electron-withdrawing Groups Decorated ( E )-1,2-Di(thiophen-2-yl)ethene Building Blocks

The performance of n-type conjugated polymers lags far behind that of p-type polymers, which significantly restricts the development of organic electronics. The (E)-1,2-di(thiophen-2-yl)ethene (TVT) unit, owing to its unique advantages, has been widely applied in the design of p-type polymer semiconductors. Previous studies have demonstrated that introducing electron-withdrawing groups can lower the frontier orbital energy levels of polymers and enhance electron injection/transporting capabilities. Based on this, we proposed incorporating multiple electronwithdrawing groups, such as amide groups, fluorine atoms, and cyano groups, into the polymer backbones of TVT-based polymer to facilitate the electron transport. Here, we successfully designed and synthesized the polymers TVTDA-4FTVT and TVTDA-2F2CNTVT. Both polymers exhibited low frontier orbital energy levels. Due to its significantly higher crystallization tendency and favorable intermolecular packing structure, the organic field-effect transistor (OFET) device based on TVTDA-4FTVT demonstrated an electron mobility one order of magnitude higher than that of TVTDA-2F2CNTVT. TVTDA-4FTVT showed the highest electron mobility of 0.87 cm 2 ·V −1 ·s −1 , while TVTDA-2F2CNTVT exhibited the highest electron mobility of 0.049 cm 2 ·V −1 ·s −1 . Owing to its deeper lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level, the OFET devices based on TVTDA-2F2CNTVT showed good air stability after being placed in a natural environment for 15 d.

Ameloblastin binding to biomimetic models of cell membranes – A continuum of intrinsic disorder

A 37-residue amino acid sequence corresponding to the segment encoded by exon-5 of murine ameloblastin (Ambn), AB2 (Y67-Q103), has been implicated with membrane association, ameloblastin self-assembly, and amelogenin-binding. Here, our aim was to characterize, at the residue level, the structural behavior of AB2 bound to chemical mimics of biological membranes using NMR spectroscopy. To better define the structure of AB2 using NMR-based methods, recombinant 13 C- and 15 N-labelled AB2 (*AB2) was prepared and data collected free in solution and with deuterated dodecylphosphocholine (dPC) micelles, deuterated bicelles, and both small and large unilamellar vesicles. Amide chemical shift and intensity perturbations observed in 1 H- 15 N HSQC spectra of *AB2 in the presence of bicelles and dPC micelles suggest that a region of *AB2, S6-E36 (murine Ambn S68 – E98), associates with the membrane biomimetics. A CSI-3 analysis of the NMR chemical shift assignments for *AB2 free in solution and bound to dPC micelles indicated the peptide remains disordered except for the adoption of a short, 12-residue α-helix, F10-G21 (murine Ambn F72-G83). In dPC micelles, the NOE NMR data was void of patterns characteristic of long-lived helical structure indicating this helix was transient in nature. A continuum of intrinsic disorder in the membrane-bound state may be responsible for ameloblastin’s ability to dynamically interact with multiple partners at the same site during amelogenesis.

A Trichomonas vaginalis C2-XYPPX-repeat protein with a structured C2 domain displaying dampened flexibility upon binding calcium

C2 domains are ubiquitous membrane-binding modules of ∼130 residues in eukaryotes that are often associated with proteins involved in membrane trafficking and lipid modification. The genome of Trichomonas vaginalis, the most common, non-viral, sexually transmitted human pathogen, encodes eight genes that contain a N-terminal C2 module linked to a XYPPX-repeat domain of more than four XYPPX repeats (C2-XYPPX). While the function of the XYPPX-repeat domain remains unknown, its multiple association with C2 domains in T. vaginalis suggests it is important. Here, the C2 domain from one of these C2-XYPPX-repeat proteins, Tv-C2-1, was structurally and physically characterized using X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure for Tv-C2-1 shows that this domain shares a fold common to all C2 domains, a compact Greek-key motif composed of eight anti-parallel β-strands in the type-2 topology. An NMR chemical shift perturbation study with Ca 2+ showed that Tv-C2-1 bound two Ca 2+ atoms primarily via two loops (loop-1 and loop-3) on the predicted calcium binding face of the protein with K d s of 58.0 ± 0.1 μM and 232 ± 6 μM. Estimations of the overall rotational correlation time, τ c , in the apo (11.1 ns) and Ca 2+ -bound (9.2 ns) state suggests the protein becomes more compact upon Ca 2+ binding, consistent with a decrease in dynamics in loop-3 and marginally in loop-1 suggested by amide 15 N heteronuclear steady-state { 1 H}- 15 N NOEs. Showing Tv-C2-1 binds calcium and adopts a compact Greek-key motif structure, two primary features of C2 domains, suggests understanding the function of the XYPPX-repeat domain may be warranted.

Hydropower and environmental flow management: System-level trade-offs at Glen Canyon Dam

The research focuses on the Colorado River Basin, specifically examining the Glen Canyon Dam (GCD) and its influence on surrounding aquatic ecosystems. This area is crucial due to its role in hydropower production and its impact on downstream environments, including the Grand Canyon National Park. This study explores the integration of environmental factors into hydro dispatch modeling at GCD to tackle ecological challenges posed by the invasive smallmouth bass (SMB). Utilizing the GTMax SL and SERM models, the research assesses the effects of SMB control experiments on hydropower generation, economic value, and grid stability. The study examines the financial and economic impacts of bypass flows designed to release colder water to prevent SMB spawning, which can significantly reduce hydropower output and increase costs. The research identifies that declining reservoir levels and rising water temperatures in Lake Powell have facilitated SMB spawning, posing a threat to native fish populations like the endangered humpback chub. The findings highlight the importance of adaptive management strategies to balance ecological preservation with hydropower generation amid long-term weather-related challenges. The study underscores the need for comprehensive assessments of flow options to prevent SMB establishment below GCD, considering the broader implications for sediment dynamics and ecological interactions.

Migrating Populus with climate change: Phenology, coppice management, cold spell susceptibility, leaf dynamics, and biomass production

Understanding the phenology and productivity of Populus species is crucial for effective management and conservation strategies amid climate change. We investigated leaf budbreak timing, susceptibility to cold damage, leaf dynamics, and biomass production of 168 Populus genotypes with diverse provenances in the southeastern United States. Our study revealed significant variation in budbreak timing across different taxa and years, with genotypes inheriting traits adapted to their parents’ local climates. Temperature emerged as a key factor triggering budbreak, while leaf development depended on other environmental cues such as photoperiod. Notably, budbreak occurred approximately 20 days earlier in 2023 compared to 2022 due to higher accumulated degree days (ADDs). Short-rotation-coppice (SRC) management delayed budbreak by five to ten days. Cold damage was significant in 2023, particularly for genotypes from northern provenances and those with P. maximowiczii parentage. Severe damage was also observed in eastern cottonwood ( Populus deltoides ​× ​ Populus deltoides (D ​× ​D)) genotypes, despite most having southeastern US parentages. Leaf dynamics, including leaf duration and leaf area index (LAI), varied across taxa and sites, with earlier budbreak correlating with extended growing seasons and increased LAI. Biomass production was intricately linked to phenological events, with earlier budbreak leading to increased biomass production and greater susceptibility to cold damage. Our findings highlight the importance of genetics, environment, and coppicing management in understanding and managing Populus phenology and biomass production. These insights provide valuable guidance for developing effective breeding, conservation, and management strategies for Populus species in the context of climate change.

Integrating science for water security governance

Hydrological extremes are intensifying globally, increasing the complexity of decisions required to ensure water security. Advances in hydrological science, modeling, and data systems have expanded the technical frontier of water research, yet uptake of scientific insights in policy and management decisions remains limited. This persistent science–policy gap is not primarily a failure of knowledge generation or robustness, but an institutional challenge shaped by how scientific and governance systems are organized, coordinated, and connected to support the effective use of scientific knowledge. These challenges are particularly pronounced in multi-level and transboundary water governance, where decisions span jurisdictions and require coordination across institutional and political boundaries. We synthesize research at the science–policy interface and evidence from water security initiatives to show how institutional arrangements, scientific tool development, and research practices enable or constrain the sustained use of scientific knowledge in water-security governance processes. Building on these insights, we develop ‘shared decision infrastructure’ as a framing to describe how scientific knowledge is embedded within the institutional, relational, and procedural arrangements that connect science to decision-making processes over time. We translate this framing into a practical intervention roadmap centered on institutional design, tool translation, sustained co-production, and outcome-oriented evaluation to support the integration of science into ongoing governance processes. By positioning science as shared decision infrastructure, the roadmap clarifies how researchers can design scientific efforts that support more coordinated, accountable, and adaptive water security decisions amid deepening uncertainty.

Geological study of an outburst flood event in the upper Yangtze River and risk of similar extreme events

Here, outburst flood sediments are studied on the upper course of the Yangtze River (known as the Jinsha River) where is a key region for the development of hydroelectric power. As the history and magnitude of outburst flooding in this stretch of the Jinsha River during historic times has remained largely undocumented, we have endeavored as part of this study to conduct field investigations into, and provide numerical dating (using OSL and 14 C dating techniques) of outburst flood evidence found in the First Bend area of the Yangtze River. Carbonized nutshells and charcoal from the ancient settlement yielded 14 C ages that precisely pinpointed an outburst flood event ~1200–1300 cal yr BP, during China's Tang Dynasty (618–907 CE). However, OSL ages using the minimum age model for all outburst flood samples ranged from 9.1 to 1.8 ka, which was ~0.5–7.8 ka older than the 14 C-dated outburst flood. This discrepancy suggests a potential overestimation of quartz age when dating outburst flood sediments from the Holocene period. Furthermore, using 2D hydraulic modeling, we estimated the magnitude of the aforementioned outburst flood, revealing a reconstructed peak flow discharge of 51,000–55,300 m 3 /s. This discharge was three times greater than the 10,000-year flood for the hydroelectric power station nearest to the study area. Our study underscores the significant role of combining archaeological and geological evidence in enhancing paleoflood hydrology research. Through a multidisciplinary approach, our findings emphasize the importance of paleoflood hydrology studies in comprehending both the latent and catastrophic flood risks in alpine mountain areas amid the context of global warming.

How alkyl branching shapes structure in imidazolium and pyrrolidinium NTf 2 ionic liquids

High-energy X-ray scattering experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were carried out on ionic liquids (ILs) consisting of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium and 1-alkyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium cations. These cations were paired with bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide anions and identical alkyl tails were used for both cationic species. The goal of this work is to investigate how the nanoscale structure of the ionic liquid changes with the length and with the degree of branching of the alkyl tail, for ILs having a common anion. We investigate spatial correlations in the intermolecular region, focusing on the intrinsic charge-charge interactions that characterize all ionic liquids, as well as the nanoscale domain segregation that is present in IL species with significant nonpolar components.

The power of lanthanides: same composition, but different lanthanides leading to different interesting materials properties, from magnetocalorics to molecular magnets and phosphors

Commonly accepted design concepts for ionic liquids (ILs) state that the constituting ions must be large and carry low, well-dispersed charges. A series of ILs based of pentadeca charged ILs with pentanuclear linear {Ln 5 } units ([Ln 5 (C 2 H 5 -C 3 H 3 N 2 -CH 2 COO) 16 (H 2 O) 8 ](Tf 2 N) 15 (C 3 H 3 N 2 = imidazolium moiety, Tf 2 N = bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide) with Ln = Er, Ho, Tm) demonstrates that these criteria are not absolute. Highly charged ions can also support IL formation, provided they are sufficiently large. Expanding the series of these unconventional, record pentadeca charged with new lanthanide representatives, led to the discovery of additional unprecedented properties for ILs: The Gd compound exhibits a strong magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in the liquid state with a maximum magnetic entropy change of −ΔS M = −11 J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1 at 2 K for Δμ 0 H = 7 T. Albeit the Dy representative shows slow magnetic relaxation, the relaxation times are not favorable for practical application as a molecular magnet. Lastly, for both the Gd and the Y compound, phosphorescence in the seconds time scale is observed, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the longest ever reported for an IL.

Hygrothermal aging effects on polyimide and acrylate-based adhesive materials in high-performance flat-flex cable assemblies

Flat-flex assemblies are widely used across a diverse range of technologies, including consumer electronics, automotive systems, aerospace and defense applications, and medical devices, due to their compact form factor and flexibility. However, environmental stressors like temperature and humidity are known to degrade performance over time, though the main mechanisms for degradation remain unknown. Here, in this work, we examined the aging behavior of copper/polyimide/adhesive laminate systems under varying temperature and humidity conditions, focusing on material degradation and its effects on mechanical and dielectric properties. Results show that peel strength and breakdown voltage decrease with exposure time, temperature, and humidity; spectroscopic characterization revealed that the adhesive, and not the polyimide, is the weak link in the material stack-up. The adhesive, identified as a butyl acrylate-acrylonitrile (BA-AN) copolymer, exhibited age-related spectral changes that correlated with exposure severity and duration. Hydrolysis at BA ester and AN nitrile groups was identified as the primary degradation mechanism, producing amides, acids, and alcohols. We developed a mechanistic model that connects kinetic parameters for BA-AN spectral band decay to peel strength and breakdown voltage, and implicates hydrolysis at the AN moiety, not BA, in performance decrements. Modeling predictions at ambient conditions indicate faster decline in peel strength than dielectric strength at early times, followed by plateauing of both properties at longer times. These findings provide critical insights into laminate aging mechanisms and highlight the importance of addressing BA-AN degradation to improve the long-term reliability of these systems in high-humidity environments.
