Abstract
This paper revisits some aspects of carbon-11 radiochemistry from the production of the primary labeling reagents and fast chemical transformations used to convert them into more useful building blocks such as [11C]methyl iodide and [11C]carbon monoxide. The application facet covers traditional methylation, carboxylation and other reactions in the preparation of PET tracers. Technical aspects and strategies in handling labeling syntheses are also included. Distinct attention is then given to methods for the 11C-labelling of carbamide and carbamate functional groups at the carbonyl position, considering the wide choice of protocols and starting materials that have become available for this purpose. Concluding sections provide an overview of contemporary practices for the purification of labeled compounds and preventing their radiolytic decomposition.

Advances of Heterocyclic Chemistry with Pesticide Activity
Global food safety and security will continue to be a global concern for the next 50 years and beyond. Plant diseases have had a significant impact on food safety and security throughout the entire food chain, from primary production to consumption. While conventional chemical pesticides have been traditionally used for ...read more
Calculation design of covalent/metal organic framework based catalysts
This research area combines theoretical computation and screening with machine learning for the design of covalent/metal organic framework-based catalysts, bridging the disciplines of organic chemistry, physical chemistry, computational chemistry, materials science, and machine learning. It covers several critical aspects: designing and synthesizing organic catalysts for improved performance, applying computational methods ...read more
Carbohydrates conversion in biofuels and bioproducts
Biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, and saccharification of carbohydrates, and sugars bioconversion in biofuels and bioproducts within a biorefinery framework. Carbohydrates derived from woody biomass, agricultural wastes, algae, sewage sludge, or any other lignocellulosic feedstock are included in this issue. Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
