  1. In the ChemSci Pick of the Week, Dr Chaofeng Zhang and colleagues from Anhui University designed a new covalent organic framework with dual redox-active sites through a simple condensation reaction of TA and PTO-NH2 in a Schiff base reaction.

  3. In our ChemSci Pick of the Week, Jeremiah Gassensmith et al. (University of Texas at Dallas, USA) show that the biomimetic mineralisation of the inert model antigen ovalbumin (OVA) in zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) significantly improves the humoral immune response over three bolus doses of OVA (OVA 3×).

  5. This enhances the efficacy of various classes of antibiotics by 32-512 fold, without inducing toxicity towards mammalian cells. The leading combination also disrupts mature multispecies biofilms composed of A. baumannii and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which is typically resistant to most antibiotics.

  7. The final Chemical Science Pick of the Week before Christmas is going back to the future (of organolanthanide chemistry)!

    Nolwenn Mahieu, Jakub Piątkowski, Thomas Simler and Grégory Nocton (École polytechnique) cover the evolution of organolanthanide chemistry in their Perspective.

    The paper is free to read, via Chemical Science's Diamond Open Access publication model:

  8. The #ChemSciPicks for this week is from Koji Kubota, Hajime Ito and co-authors at ICReDD Hokkaido University .

    A #mechanochemistry protocol is reported for the synthesis of arylmanganese nucleophiles from unactivated manganese in air, avoiding the use of additives or Rieke manganese. The resulting nucleophiles can be used for one-pot addition to electrophiles and Pd-mediated cross-coupling.
