EC series near-infrared fluorescent dyes are a new class of high-performance dyes developed by the research team of Professor Yang Youjun at East China University of Science and Technology (Figure 1) [1-7]. These dyes are designed to meet the growing demand for infrared imaging, photothermal ablation, and other applications in...

SadPhos ligand is a newly developed chiral ligand with adaptive coordination, created by the research group of Professor Zhang Junliang. This ligand features non-C2 symmetry and various coordination atoms with differing soft and hard properties. It can be used as a monophosphine ligand, or as an N,P-ligand, P,S-ligand, and P,O-ligand,...

High-fidelity in vivo fluorescence monitoring of physiological processes is crucial in disease diagnosis and biological research, but it faces extreme challenges due to aggregation-induced quenching (ACQ) and short-wavelength fluorescence. The development of high-performance, long-wavelength aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorophores has placed higher demands on precise optical bioimaging.Chromophore-quinoline-malononitrile (quinolinenitrile, QM) is a...

  Vinylboronates and alkylboronates are key components in variegated transformations in all facets of chemical science. IMDN-Tf achieves fluoroalkylation-borylation in one step under mild reaction conditions. IMDN-Tf (Fig. 1), developed by Prof. Yi Pan of Nanjing University, is a trifluoromethylation reagent which can release trifluoromethyl radicals under photocatalytic conditions. In addition,...
