Mechanochemical Approach for Air‐Tolerant and Extremely Fast Lithium‐Based Birch Reductions in Minutes

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 62(21)

Опубликована: Март 22, 2023

Birch reduction has been widely used in organic synthesis for over half a century as powerful method to dearomatize arenes into 1,4-cyclohexadiene derivatives. However, the conventional reaction using liquid ammonia requires laborious procedures ensure inert conditions and low temperatures. Although several ammonia-free modifications have reported, development of an operationally simple, efficient, scalable protocol remains challenge. Herein, we report lithium-based air without special operating ball-milling technique. This is characterized by its operational simplicity extremely short time (within 1 min), probably owing situ mechanical activation lithium metal, broad substrate scope, no requirement dry bulk solvents. The potential our flash also demonstrated efficient bioactive target molecules gram-scale synthesis.

Dynamic Li⁺ Capture through Ligand‐Chain Interaction for the Regeneration of Depleted LiFePO₄ Cathode

Advanced Materials, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 36(14)

Опубликована: Янв. 4, 2024

Abstract After application in electric vehicles, spent LiFePO 4 (LFP) batteries are typically decommissioned. Traditional recycling methods face economic and environmental constraints. Therefore, direct regeneration has emerged as a promising alternative. However, irreversible phase changes can significantly hinder the efficiency of process owing to structural degradation. Moreover, improper storage treatment practices lead metamorphism, further complicating process. In this study, sustainable recovery method is proposed for electrochemical repair LFP batteries. A ligand‐chain Zn‐complex (ZnDEA) utilized regulator, with its ─NH─ group alternatingly facilitating binding preferential transition metal ions (Fe 3+ during charging Zn 2+ discharging). This dynamic coordination ability helps modulate volume within recovered framework. Consequently, framework store more Li‐ions, enhance reversibility between FePO (FP), modify initial Coulombic efficiency, reduce polarization voltage differences. The cells exhibit excellent capacity retention 96.30% after 1500 cycles at 2 C. ligand chain mechanism promotes evolution facilitate ion migration, providing valuable insights into targeted compensation environmentally friendly practical applications.
