Chemoselective Reactions of Functionalized Sulfonyl Halides
Chem Rec. 2023 Oct 12:e202300256. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300256. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChemoselective transformations of functionalized sulfonyl fluorides and chlorides are surveyed comprehensively. It is shown that sulfonyl fluorides provide an excellent selectivity control in their reactions. Thus, numerous conditions are tolerated by the SO2 F group - from amide and ester formation to directed ortho-lithiation and transition-metal-catalyzed cross-couplings. Meanwhile, sulfur (VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) is also compatible with numerous functional groups, thus confirming its title of "another click reaction". On t...

Recent Advances in Floating Photovoltaic Systems
Chem Rec. 2023 Oct 12:e202300229. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300229. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn recent years, floating photovoltaic (FPV) technologies have gained more importance as a key source of clean energy, particularly in the context of providing sustainable energy to buildings. The rise of land scarcity and the need to reduce carbon emissions have made FPV systems a cost-effective solution for generating electricity. This review article aims to explore the rapidly growing trend of floating PV systems, which can be a practical solution for regions with limited land areas. The article discusses the structure of the PV ...
