A switchable ring-opening reaction of 3-alkynyl-4-pyrones with CH-active compounds in basic medium has been developed for the efficient synthesis of highly substituted benzofurans and chromones. The best selectivity is achieved under solvent-free conditions for the formation of chromones and in the presence of CuI for the formation of benzofurans. Both conditions are very mild and scalable. A large number of products bearing electron-withdrawing groups have been prepared in good to excellent yields.

Structurally unique halichonine B is promising for the design of pharmaceutical leads, while function-oriented optimization is unknown in agrochemical science. Our recent practical synthesis offers a great chance for the discovery of antimicrobial leads. "Linker plus replaceable substituents" is exerted, in which up to 9 unique linkers together with diverse substituents from a wide chemical space are investigated for optimization of the readily available drimanyl amine.

Contemporary debates about artificial intelligence (AI) still treat automation as a straightforward substitution of human labor by machines. Drawing on Goffman's dramaturgical sociology, this paper reframes AI in the workplace as rather than automation. We argue that the central-but routinely overlooked-terrain of struggle is symbolic-interactional: workers continuously stage, conceal, and re-negotiate what counts as "real" work and professional competence.

A dearomative 1,4-hydroamination of nonactivated arenes has been developed, using a key arene-arenophile photocycloaddition strategy to disrupt aromaticity. Palladium catalysis with K-Selectride as a hydride source uniquely enables selective reactivity and provides access to a range of substituted 1,4-cyclohexadienes from aromatic starting materials. We demonstrate a few synthetic applications of this scalable procedure by preparing highly-functionalized small molecules in three to four steps from naphthalene.

Severe scarring is an inevitable consequence of large full-thickness skin wounds, often leading to long-term complications that affect patients' well-being and necessitate extended medical interventions. While autologous split-thickness skin grafts remain the clinical standard for wound treatment, they frequently result in contractures, excessive scarring, and the need for additional corrective procedures. To address these challenges, bioengineered skin substitutes capable of promoting efficient healing while reducing complications are highly desirable.
