The present disclosure provides methods for producing N-(fluorosulfonyl)azoles, sulfonyldiazoles, or related derivatives thereof; and the related products including N-(fluorosulfonyl)azoles, sulfonyldiazoles, and related derivatives thereof. For example, an N-(fluorosulfonyl)azole is obtained by reaction of sulfuryl fluoride with an azoles, an azole anion compound, a silylazole, or a combination thereof. Symmetric and asymmetric sulfonyldiazoles are obtained by further reaction of such an N-(fluorosulfonyl)azole with azoles, azole anion compounds, or silylazoles. A sulfonyldiazole can be also produced by reacting sulfuryl fluoride with an azole, a silylazole, or a combination thereof in one pot.

The invention provides compounds that inhibit FTO (fat mass and obesity), including pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrides and stereoisomers thereof. The compounds are employed in pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of making and use, including treating a person in need thereof, particularly obesity, with an effective amount of the compound or composition, and detecting a resultant improvement in the person's health or condition.

The present disclosure relates to compounds of Formula (I):

##STR00001##

and to their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutical compositions, methods of use, and methods for their preparation. The compounds disclosed herein are useful for inhibiting the maturation of cytokines of the IL-1 family by inhibiting inflammasomes and may be used in the treatment of disorders in which inflammasome activity is implicated, such as autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases and cancers.

An electrolyte additive, an electrolyte, and a lithium-ion battery, where the electrolyte additive has a structure shown in formula (I):

##STR00001##

The electrolyte additive has both a film-forming property and the property of inhibiting the rise of acidity and chromaticity of the electrolyte, thereby effectively improving the cycle performance of the battery.
