The pyridyltetrazolate ligand formed in situ from NaN3 and 3‐cyanopyridine in the presence of ZnCl2 or CdCl2 in water affords acentric (1) or chiral (2) coordination polymers, respectively. The corresponding reaction of ZnCl2 with 4‐cyanopyridine gives acentric 3 (not shown). Compounds 1–3 are second harmonic generation active.

Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has become one of the most critical public health problems worldwide. Because many COPD patients are using video-based social media to search for health information, there is an urgent need to assess the information quality of COPD videos on social media. Recently, the short-video app TikTok has demonstrated huge potential in disseminating health information and there are currently many COPD videos available on TikTok; however, the information quality of these videos remains unknown. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the information quality of COPD videos on TikTok. Methods In December 2020, we retrieved and screened 300 videos from TikTok and collected a sample of 199 COPD-related videos in Chinese for data extraction. We extracted the basic video information, coded the content, and identified the video sources. Two independent raters assessed the information quality of each video using the DISCERN instrument. Results COPD videos on TikTok came mainly from two types of sources: individual users (n=168) and organizational users (n=31). The individual users included health professionals, individual science communicators, and general TikTok users, whereas the organizational users consisted of for-profit organizations, nonprofit organizations, and news agencies. For the 199 videos, the mean scores of the DISCERN items ranged from 3.42 to 4.46, with a total mean score of 3.75. Publication reliability (P=.04) and overall quality (P=.02) showed significant differences across the six types of sources, whereas the quality of treatment choices showed only a marginally significant difference (P=.053) across the different sources. Conclusions The overall information quality of COPD videos on TikTok is satisfactory, although the quality varies across different sources and according to specific quality dimensions. Patients should be selective and cautious when watching COPD videos on TikTok.

The reaction of 4-cyanopyridine with NaN(3) in the presence of H(2)O and a Lewis acid (CdCl(2)) affords a novel 3D pillared-layered fluorescent and phosphorescent coordination polymer Cd(3)(OH)(2)Cl(2)(4-PTZ)(2) (4-PTZ = 5-(4-pyridyl)tetrazolate) (1) while the direct reaction of CdCl(2) with H-PTZ gives the simpler species Cd(4-PTZ)(2)(H(2)O)(2). The solid-state structure and nature of 1 provide an indication of the type of materials that may be formed as intermediates in the Sharpless-Demko reaction for the generation of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles.

The in situ hydrothermal reactions of UO 2 (NO 3 ) 2 with 1-oxo-4-cyanopyridine (ocpy) and ethyl (S)-lactate (e-la) afforded two unprecedented chiral 2D neutral luminescent square grids, uranyl-bis(1-oxo-4-pyridylcarboxylate) UO 2 (opyca) 2 (1) and homochiral uranyl-bis[(S)-lactate] (2). Their solid-

The reaction of N,N�-dicyanohydrazine with ZnCl2 and NaN3 in water unexpectedly affords 5-aminotetrazolato hydroxo zinc rather than a zinc complex with bis(tetrazolyl)hydrazine. An N–N bond cleavage has occurred in the Demko–Sharpless' tetrazole synthesis.

Flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) of [5]helicene induces a thermal cyclodehydrogenation to form benzo[ghi]perylene. Evidence is presented that supports an electrocyclization-rearomatization mechanism and is inconsistent with mechanistic alternatives involving the intermediacy of aryl radicals or carbenes in the helicene fjord region.

Hydrothermal treatment of 4-sulfo-l-phenylalanine (H2SPA) with Zn(OH)2 and Cu(OH)2 affords two novel 1-D chiral coordination polymers [Zn(SPA)(H2O)2] n (1) and [Cu(SPA)(H2O)2] n (2) as chiral supramolecular aggregates through strong hydrogen bonding of the sulfonate group. 1 also displays a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response.
