Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the potential use of post-consumer primary lithium metal batteries (LMBs) commonly used in portable electronic devices to recover lithium and manganese in the form of industrially important materials. A direct reaction of lithium-containing electronic waste with a naturally sourced ester, methyl salicylate, combined with a wide range of aliphatic alcohols has been used as a general method for recovering lithium in the form of lithium aryloxides of different nuclearities [Li(OAr)(HOMe)2] (1), [Li(OAr)(HOAr)] (2), [Li(OAr)(HOEt)]2 (3), [Li(OAr)(H2O)]2 (4), [Li4(OAr)4(EGME)2] (5), [Li6(OAr)6] (6-8) for ArOH = methyl salicylate (1, 2, 4, 6), ethyl salicylate (3, 7), 2-methoxyethyl salicylate (5, 8), and EGME = 2-methoxyethanol. The hydrolysis of 7 was then used to synthesize lithium salicylate [Li(Sal)(H2O)]n (10), which is an important antioxidant in the production of oils and grease. The discharged cathode material of Li-MnO2 batteries was investigated as a source from which LiClO4, Li2CO3, LiMn2O4, and Mn2O3 can be recovered by means of water-alcohol extraction or calcination. Particular emphasis was placed on the detailed characterization of all battery components and their decomposition products. LMBs were completely recycled for the first time, and materials were recovered from the cathode and the anode.

Abstract
In this article, we studied the capability of bulky groups to contribute to the stabilization of a given compound in addition to the well-known steric effect related to substituents due to their composition (alkyl chains and aromatic groups, among others). For this purpose, the recently synthesized 1-bora-3-boratabenzene anion which contains large substituents was analyzed by means of the independent gradient model (IGM), natural population analysis (NPA) at the TPSS/def2-TZVP level, force field-based energy decomposition analysis (EDA-FF) applying the universal force field (UFF), and molecular dynamics calculations under the GFN2-xTB approach. The results indicate that the bulky groups should not only be considered for their steric effects but also for their ability to stabilize a system that could be very reactive.

Abstract
In this work, a hexanuclear lithium compound, [Li6(MesalO)6] (1), supported by a chelating ligand, namely methyl salicylato (MesalOH), was used as a precursor for preparation of the monomeric lithium aryloxides [Li(MesalO)(MesalOH)] (2) and [Li(MesalO)(MeOH)2] (3) via reactions with MesalOH or MeOH. These aryloxides were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and spectroscopic and other analytical methods. The diffusion-ordered 1H NMR measurements revealed the retention of solid-state structures of 1 and 2 in THF-d8 solution. Experimental data obtained for 3 showed its decomposition into compound 1 and free MeOH. Compound 1 generated from 3 was also used as a catalyst for the alcoholysis of l-lactide (l-LA) and glycolide (GA) for the preparation of α-hydroxy acid esters. We established that during methanolysis in the presence of 1, l-LA was selectively transformed into methyl (S,S)-O-lactyllactate (MeL2), and GA was converted to methyl glycolate (MeG1) and oligoglycolate esters MeGn (n = 2, 3, and 4).

Abstract
Sterically large substituents can provide kinetic stabilization to various types of low-coordinate compounds. For example, regarding the chemistry of the group 14 elements, since West et al. introduced the concept of kinetic protection of the otherwise highly reactive Si=Si double bond by bulky mesityl (2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) groups in 1981, a number of unsaturated compounds of silicon and its group homologs have been successfully isolated by steric effects using the appropriate large substituents. However, the functions and applications of the Si-Si π-bonds consisting of the 3pπ electrons on the formally sp2-hybridized silicon atoms have rarely been explored until 10 years ago, when Scheschkewitz and Tamao independently reported the model systems of the oligo(p-phenylenedisilenylene)s (Si-OPVs) in 2007. This review focuses on the recent advances in the chemistry of π-electron systems containing Si=Si double bonds, mainly published in the last decade. The synthesis, characterization, and potential application of a variety of donor-free π-conjugated disilene compounds are described.

Abstract
The title compound, [Ti(C24H33O2)Cl3(C4H8O)], is a rare example of a trigonal-bipyramidal titanium coordination complex with three chloride and two oxygen donor ligands. The asymmetric unit contains two independent mol-ecules having essentially the same conformation. The mol-ecules feature the titanium(IV) metal cation complexed with three chloride ligands, a tetra-hydro-furan mol-ecule, and one oxygen atom from the resolved ligand precursor (R)-(+)-5,5',6,6'-tetra-methyl-3,3'-di-t-butyl-1,1'-biphenyl-2,2'-diol, where the remaining phenolic hydrogen atom engages in inter-molecular O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding. In one mol-ecule, the THF ligand is disordered over two orientations with refined site occupancies of 0.50 (3).
