SMART: A data reporting standard for mass spectrometry imaging By Ying Xi,Alexandria L. Sohn,Alena N. Joignant,Stephanie M. Cologna,Boone M. Prentice and David C. Muddiman

Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is an important analytical technique that simultaneously reports the spatial location and abundance of detected ions in biological, chemical, clinical, and pharmaceutical studies. As MSI grows in popularity, it has become evident that data reporting varies among different research groups and between techniques. The lack of consistency in data reporting inherently creates additional challenges in comparing intra- and inter-laboratory MSI data. In this tutorial, we propose a unified data reporting system, SMART, based on the common features shared between techniques. While there are limitations to any reporting system, SMART was decided upon after significant discussion to more easily understand and benchmark MSI data. SMART is not intended to be comprehensive but rather capture essential baseline information for a given MSI study; this could be within a study (e.g., effect of spot size on the measured ion signals) or between two studies (e.g., different MSI platform technologies applied to the same tissue type). This tutorial does not attempt to address the confidence with which annotations are made nor does it deny the importance of other parameters that are not included in the current SMART format. Ultimately, the goal of this tutorial is to discuss the necessity of establishing a uniform reporting system to communicate MSI data in publications and presentations in a simple format to readily interpret the parameters and baseline outcomes of the data.     

Synthesis of Multifluoromethylated γ-Sultines by a Photoinduced Radical Addition–Polar Cyclization

Despite the significance of sultines in synthesis, medicine, and materials science, the chemistry of sultines has remained unexplored due to their inaccessibility. Herein, we demonstrate the development of a photoredox-catalyzed multifluoromethyl radical addition/SO₂ incorporation/polar cyclization cascade approach to multifluoromethylated γ-sultines. The reactions proceed by single electron transfer induced multifluoromethyl radical addition to an alkene followed by SO₂ incorporation, and single-electron reduction for polar 5-exo-tet cyclization. Key to the success of the protocol is the use of easily oxidizable multifluoroalkanesulfinates as bifunctional reagents. The reactions proceed with excellent functional-group tolerance to deliver γ-sultines in moderate to excellent yields.     

Ru(bpy)32+-Enabled Cell-Surface Photocatalytic Proximity Labeling toward More Efficient Capture of Physically Interacting Cells

Intercellular proximity labeling has emerged as a promising approach to enable the study of cell-cell interactions (CCIs), but the efficiency of current platforms is limited. Here, we use Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ to construct an efficient photocatalytic proximity labeling (PPL) system on the cell surface that allows the highly discriminative CCI detection with spatiotemporal resolution. Through the mechanism study and quantitative characterization on living cells, we demonstrate that the singlet-oxygen (¹O₂) mechanism is more efficient and specific than the single electron transfer (SET) mechanism in Ru-mediated PPL. Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ catalysts with different cell-anchoring moieties are prepared to facilitate the catalyst loading on primary cells. Finally, based on this system, we develop a “live” T cell receptor (TCR) multimer with TCR-T cells that could sensitively identify and discriminate cells presenting antigens of different affinity, providing a powerful tool to better understand the heterogeneity of antigen presenting cells.     

Two-Dimensional Conjugated Metal-Organic Frameworks with Large Pore Apertures and High Surface Areas for NO2 Selective Chemiresistive Sensing

The emergence of two-dimensional conjugated metal–organic frameworks (2D c-MOFs) with pronounced electrical properties (e.g., high conductivity) has provided a novel platform for efficient energy storage, sensing, and electrocatalysis. Nevertheless, the limited availability of suitable ligands restricts the number of available types of 2D c-MOFs, especially those with large pore apertures and high surface areas are rare. Herein, we develop two new 2D c-MOFs (HIOTP-M, M=Ni, Cu) employing a large p-π conjugated ligand of hexaamino-triphenyleno[2,3-b:6,7-b′:10,11-b′′]tris[1,4]benzodioxin (HAOTP). Among the reported 2D c-MOFs, HIOTP-Ni exhibits the largest pore size of 3.3 nm and one of the highest surface areas (up to 1300 m² g⁻¹). As an exemplary application, HIOTP-Ni has been used as a chemiresistive sensing material and displays high selective response (405 %) and a rapid response (1.69 min) towards 10 ppm NO₂ gas. This work demonstrates significant correlation linking the pore aperture of 2D c-MOFs to their sensing performance.     

Photoinduced Oxidation Reaction of Benzotrifluoride with OH Radical by the Laser Flash Method

The optical transient and kinetics characterizations of the transients formed in the reaction of OH with benzotrifluoride (BTF) were performed by a laser flash photolysis technique. The results indicated that the formation of π‐type adduct of C₆H₅(OH)CF₃ was the major reaction channel, and the δ‐type adduct of C₆H₅CF₃OH formation was an additional minor process in the oxidation reaction of BTF attacked by OH radicals yielded from the photolysis of H₂O₂. Addition of OH to the CF₃ group led to the fluoride ion elimination to yield α,α‐difluorophenylcarbinol (C₆H₅CF₂OH). Trifluoromethylphenol (HOC₆H₄CF₃) of meta‐, para‐ and ortho‐substituted isomers resulted from the addition of OH to the BTF aromatic ring.     

阴离子Gemini表面活性剂和阳离子传统表面活性剂混合体系双水相中囊泡形貌的转变

通过电子显微镜观察了阴离子gemini表面活性剂C₁₁- p-PhCNa和阳离子传统表面活性剂DTAB混合体系双水相中囊泡形貌随体系组成和浓度的转变。结果表明,双水相较浓的一相中形成了多层囊泡,囊泡的大小和壁厚随相的组成和浓度而改变,两组分等电荷混合有利于形成较大且壁较厚的囊泡。分析表明, gemini表面活性剂在聚集体中采取的反式构象可能是其容易形成厚壁多层囊泡的重要原因,C₁₁- p-PhCNa联接链上的苯氧基与DTA⁺之间的p-阳离子相互作用以及两组分相反电性头基之间的静电吸引使囊泡壁的多层结构更加稳定。

Conformational stability of 1-butene: an electron momentum spectroscopy investigation

The valence-shell electron momentum distributions for 1-butene are measured by electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) employing non-coplanar symmetric geometry. The experimental electron momentum distributions are compared with the density functional theory (DFT) calculations using different-sized basis sets. Although the two conformers of 1-butene in the gas phase, namely the skew and syn, have very close ionization potentials, the electron momentum distributions, especially in the low momentum region, can show prominent differences for some of the valence orbitals. By comparing the experimental electron momentum profiles with the theoretical ones, the skew conformer is found to be more stable than the syn and their relative abundances at room temperature are estimated to be (69 +/- 6)% and (31 +/- 6)%, respectively. It demonstrates that EMS has the latent potential to study the relative stability of conformers.
