RESUMEN
This study investigated the responses of Didymodon constrictus and Hypnum plumaeforme to different light qualities emitted by light-emitting diodes (LEDs), including white light (WL), red light (RL), blue light (BL), yellow light (YL), green light (GL), and a combination of red and blue light (R1B1L). The research analyzed the fluorescence imaging, photosynthetic pigments, coloration, and growth characteristics related to antioxidant enzymes in these two moss species. The results indicated that R1B1L significantly enhanced the content of photosynthetic pigments, maximum relative electron transport rate (rETRmax), saturation light intensity (IK), and the greenness of the moss. RL improved the maximum quantum yield (Fv/Fm), the light energy efficiency of H. plumaeforme and effective quantum yield in both moss species. In contrast, BL notably increased non-photochemical quenching (NPQ), photochemical quenching (qp), and the steady-state fluorescence decrease ratio (RFD) in H. plumaeforme. The application of GL significantly increases the maximum photon yield (Fv/Fm) in D. constrictus, as well as the light energy efficiency and elongation length, resulting in a shift in the color composition of both moss species towards yellow. Among the light treatments, R1B1L had the highest induction rate and promotional effect on the growth of both moss species. These mosses absorbed GL and RL effectively, while BL played a crucial role in the dissipation of heat and electron transfer in H. plumaeforme. This research provides valuable insights for the regulation of LED light environments and the physiological adaptability of moss in artificial cultivation.
RESUMEN
Herein, we report the C-H cyanation of indoles via a palladium-catalyzed directed C-CN activation reaction using aryl nitrile as a cyano source. The employment of the phenoxy-oriented group is the key to the cleavage of the C-CN bond. This protocol features a broad substrate scope, good efficiency, and high regioselectivity. Furthermore, the practical application of this protocol was showcased in the late-stage functionalization and synthesis of indole derivatives, which were derived from drugs and natural products, through the process of cyanation.
RESUMEN
While molecular solvents are commonly used in the screening of polymorphs, the choices are often restricted. Ionic liquids (ILs) - also referred as designer solvents - have immense possibility in this regard because of their wide flexibility of tunability. More importantly, the interactions among the IL components are completely unique compared to those present in the molecular solvents. In this context, we have chosen tetrolic acid (TA) and isonicotinamide (INA), which showed solution-structure link in molecular solvents in the past, as probes to investigate the role of imidazolium based ionic liquids in the polymorphism of these two systems and whether the different solute-solvent interactions in ILs affect the polymorphic outcome. It is observed that the selected imidazolium-based ILs, with varying anion basicity have influenced the crystallization outcome by the interaction between ILs and model compounds. Later, we have utilized the concept of double salt ionic liquids (DSIL) for INA, a penta-morphic system, to investigate the variation in the polymorphic outcome. This approach helped to obtain the forms that were otherwise inaccessible in ILs.
