Abstract
Aliphatic polycarbonates (aPCs) have become increasingly popular as functional materials due to their biocompatibility and capacity for on-demand degradation. Advances in polymerization techniques and the introduction of new functional monomers have expanded the library of aPCs available, offering a diverse range of chemical compositions and structures. To accommodate the emerging requirements of new applications in biomedical and energy-related fields, various manufacturing techniques have been adopted for processing aPC-based materials. However, a summary of these techniques has yet to be conducted. The aim of this paper is to enrich the toolbox available to researchers, enabling them to select the most suitable technique for their materials. In this paper, a concise review of the recent progress in processing techniques, including controlled self-assembly, electrospinning, additive manufacturing, and other techniques, is presented. We also highlight the specific challenges and opportunities for the sustainable growth of this research area and the successful integration of aPCs in industrial applications.

Abstract
Persistent radicals can hold their unpaired electrons even under conditions where they accumulate, leading to the unique characteristics of radical ensembles with open-shell structures and their molecular properties, such as magneticity, radical trapping, catalysis, charge storage, and electrical conductivity. The molecules also display fast, reversible redox reactions, which have attracted particular attention for energy conversion and storage devices. This paper reviews the electrochemical aspects of persistent radicals and the corresponding macromolecules, radical polymers. Radical structures and their redox reactions are introduced, focusing on redox potentials, bistability, and kinetic constants for electrode reactions and electron self-exchange reactions. Unique charge transport and storage properties are also observed with the accumulated form of redox sites in radical polymers. The radical molecules have potential electrochemical applications, including in rechargeable batteries, redox flow cells, photovoltaics, diodes, and transistors, and in catalysts, which are reviewed in the last part of this paper.

Abstract
An efficient and unique approach to synthesize isatin (indole-2,3-dione) from 2-aminoacetophenone under electrochemical conditions supported by I2-DMSO through C-N cross-coupling and C(sp2)-H/C(sp3)-H functionalization is presented. This synthetic method spans a wide range of substituted 2-aminoacetophenone substrates. The use of iodine as a promoter and shorter reaction times produced good to very good yields of isatin derivatives, which is a significant improvement over the reaction in a batch process. Further, hydrazones of isatin were synthesized by using hydrazine hydrate which produces electrochemically active molecules, namely isatin-hydrazones. The hydrazones of acetophenone were also obtained using the same reaction protocol. Additionally, the effect of increasing scan rate studied using cyclic voltammetry shows that the process followed a diffusion-controlled mechanism.

Abstract
Stable, nitroxide-based organic radicals have gained tremendous attention in a wide range of research fields, ranging from solid-state electronics to energy storage devices. While the success of these organics has been their designer flexibility and the processability that can fully potentiate the open-shell chemistry, a significant knowledge gap exists on the solid-state electronics of small-molecular radicals. Herein, we examine the structure-property relationship that governs the solid-state electronics of a model nitroxide and its derivatives by seeking the connection to their well-established, electrolyte-based chemistry. Further, we propose a general strategy of enhancing their solid-state conductivity by systematic humidity control. This study demonstrates an open-shell platform of the device operation and underlying principles thereof, which can potentially be applied in a number of future radical-based electronic devices.

Abstract
Herein, we present the first organocatalytic oxygen/sulfur atom exchange reaction (O/S ER) of isatins by employing carbonyl sulfide (COS) as a novel sulfuring reagent under mild reaction conditions. 8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) exhibited excellent activity in this approach. Remarkably, the chemical transformations of in situ generated 3-thioisatins can be tuned via the judicious choice of reaction solvents in a one pot process, enabling the selective formation of either functionalized isoindigos in CH3CN via a self-condensation process or spirothiopyrans in DMSO in the presence of conjugated dienes via the thio-Diels-Alder reaction. Mechanistic studies with experimental and density functional theory approaches revealed that the O/S ER between isatins and COS results in the formation of 3-thioisatins as the key intermediates, which further undergo solvent-controlled transformations to generate isoindigos or spirothiopyrans, respectively. The easily-accessible substrates and operational simplicity make the process suitable for further exploration. The practicality of this transformation was demonstrated by the gram-scale synthesis of isoindigo-based drug molecules and donor-acceptor conjugated polymers.
