Red Sox $48 million 'frontline starter' surprisingly linked to Cubs by MLB insider

The Chicago Cubs are just a couple of pieces away from finally returning to the playoffs. In 2024, the Cubs were profoundly mediocre on both sides of the ball. Improving the rotation is a worthy objective for the Cubs, because Imanaga could be due for regression as the league adjusts to his unique high-spin fastball. Chicago may try for the Corbin Burneses and Max Frieds of the world, but perhaps a lower-budget option could turn out to be the perfect Cubs addition.

VerSoX B07-B: a high-throughput XPS and ambient pressure NEXAFS beamline at Diamond Light Source

The beamline optics and endstations at branch B of the Versatile Soft X-ray (VerSoX) beamline B07 at Diamond Light Source are described. B07-B provides medium-flux X-rays in the range 45–2200 eV from a bending magnet source, giving access to local electronic structure for atoms of all elements from Li to Y. It has an endstation for high-throughput X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and near-edge X-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) measurements under ultrahigh-vacuum (UHV) conditions. B07-B has a second endstation dedicated to NEXAFS at pressures from UHV to ambient pressure (1 atm). The combination of these endstations permits studies of a wide range of interfaces and materials. The beamline and endstation designs are discussed in detail, as well as their performance and the commissioning process.

In the title compound, C22H25NO5·H2O, the ten-membered ring displays an approximate chair–chair conformation, whereas the five-membered furan ring has an envelope conformation, with the C atom of the methine group adjacent to the spiro C atom as the flap. The isoxazole ring is almost planar and its plane is slightly inclined to the plane of the attached phenyl ring. The mean plane of the furan ring is nearly perpendicular to that of the isoxazole ring, as indicated by the dihedral angle between them of 89.39 (12)°. In the crystal, the organic mol­ecules are linked into [010] chains by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The water mol­ecule forms O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and a weak C—H⋯O inter­action is also observed. Together, these lead to a three-dimensional network.

Crystal structure of 5-(4-tert-but­oxy­phen­yl)-3-(4-n-octyloxyphen­yl)-4,5-di­hydro­isoxazole

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C27H37NO3, was prepared by [3 + 2] 1,3-dipolar cyclo­addition of 4-n-octyl­phenyl­nitrile oxide and 4-tert-but­oxy­styrene, the latter compound being a very useful inter­mediate to the synthesis of liquid-crystalline materials. In the mol­ecule, the benzene rings of the n-octyloxyphenyl and tert-but­oxy­phenyl groups form dihedral angles of 2.83 (7) and 85.49 (3)°, respectively, with the mean plane of the isoxazoline ring. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen inter­actions into chains running parallel to the b axis.

The title compound, C17H18ClNO2, was prepared and isolated as a pure diastereoisomer, using column chromatography followed by a succession of fractional crystallizations. Its exact structure was fully identified via 1H NMR and confirmed by X-ray diffraction. It is built up from a central five-membered di­hydro­isoxazole ring to which a p-chloro­phenyl group and a cyclo­hex-2-enone ring are attached in the 3 and 5 positions. The cyclo­hex-2-one and isoxazoline rings each exhibit an envelope conformation. The crystal packing features C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯π inter­actions, which generate a three-dimensional network.

Method for removing SOx from gas using polyethylene glycol

A method for removing SOx (x=2 and/or 3) from gas using a solution having polyethylene glycol as the main ingredient. First, SOx in the gas is absorbed by the solution of polyethylene glycol. Second, the solution of polyethylene glycol which has absorbed SOx is regenerated by one or more of the heating, vacuum, ultrasonic, microwave or radiation methods, thereby releasing the by-products of sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide. The regenerated solution of polyethylene glycol is recycled. When the water content of the regenerated solution of polyethylene glycol is high enough to affect the desulfurization, it needs to be removed. Removal methods include heating and rectification, absorption using a water absorbent, or a combination of these methods. The polyethylene glycol solution is recycled after dehydration.
