Chemoenzymatic epoxidation of olefin mediated by lipase is a green and environmentally friendly alternative process. However, the mass transfer barrier and lipase deactivation caused by the traditional organic–water biphasic reaction system have always been the focus of researchers’ attention. To overcome these issues, we investigated the effects of reaction temperature and two important substrates (H 2 O 2 and acyl donor) on the epoxidation reaction and interfacial mass transfer. As a result, we determined the optimal reaction conditions: a temperature of 30 °C, 30 wt-% H 2 O 2 as the oxygen source, and 1 M lauric acid as the oxygen carrier. Additionally, by simulating the conditions of shaking flask reactions, we designed a batch reactor and added a metal mesh to effectively block the direct contact between high-concentration hydrogen peroxide and the enzyme. Under these optimal conditions, the epoxidation reaction was carried out for 5 h, and the product yield reached a maximum of 93.2%. Furthermore, after seven repetitive experiments, the lipase still maintained a relative activity of 51.2%.

Phenylalanine butyramide (FBA) is a novel butyric acid derivative with favorable sensory properties, which has broad prospects in medicine and feed processing. However, there is currently limited research on the enzymatic synthesis of FBA. As is well known, lipase plays a crucial role in amide bond synthesis, but it typically requires completely anhydrous conditions. The lipase fromSphingomonassp. HXN-200 (SpL) is the only intracellular lipase identified to date, capable of catalyzing the ammonolysis of esters or acids in an aqueous phase. In this study, we developed a method for the synthesis of FBA catalyzed by SpL in a biphasic reaction system of water and n-hexane. SpL was successfully expressed inE. coliBL21, and the optimal induction conditions were 0.4 mM IPTG and 18 h. It was ascertained that the n-hexane system containing 2% water was conducive to the reaction. Under optimized reaction conditions, 0.89 mg/mL of FBA was obtained within 15 h at 30 °C. Additionally, we found that SpL also has the ability to hydrolyze amides in the reaction of SpL catalyzing the formation of amides, so we further analyzed its catalytic mechanism.

Janus structure can stabilize oil/water interface and improve interfacial mass transfer in biphasic systems due to its asymmetric wettability and multifunctionality of its dual compartment structure. However, the fabrication of novel Janus structures with resistance to complex application environments is still a challenge due to the difficulty in finding suitable and durable building blocks and connecting them into Janus structures with asymmetric wettability. Herein, Janus carbon-mesoporous silica particles (CMS), featuring a joint of spherical carbon and cubic periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO), have been fabricated via a facile anisotropic growth. The spacial isolation of hydrophobic carbon domain and hydrophilic PMO domain endows the particle with asymmetric wettability to stabilize emulsion with large droplet size (up to 1.5 mm). The Pickering emulsions emulsified by CMS exhibit high interfacial, thermal and salt stability. Besides, by loading phosphotungstic acid on PMO part, the CMS exhibit a yield of 94% of cinnamaldehyde glycol acetal in biphasic reaction. Furthermore,the CMS have great potential of being a versatile platform not only for catalytic reactions but also for interfacial oriented energy storage, battery, sensing, and biomedical imaging.

Deep eutectic solvents act as surfactants in biphasic (hydrophobic/aqueous) reaction mixtures enabling higher interfacial surface areas at lower mechanical stress as compared to simple emulsions. Exploiting this effect the rate of a chemoenzymatic epoxidation reaction was increased more than six-fold.

A series of Fe/β zeolite catalysts with various Fe/Al ratios were prepared by liquid ion-exchanged method and were characterized by N 2 adsorption, XRD , UV–Vis DRS, EPR , NH 3 -TPD, and FTIR of pyridine adsorption techniques. The catalysts were used to catalyze the transformation of glucose into 5-hydorxymethyfural (HMF) in a biphasic reaction system under mild reaction conditions. The Fe/β catalysts with Lewis acidic Fe sites is able to effectively improve the HMF yield compared to H-β zeolite under identical reaction conditions, which is ascribed to the enhanced isomerization activity of glucose-to-fructose by Lewis acidic Fe species. Moreover, the Fe/Al ratio had a remarkable impact on the conversion of glucose and the yield of HMF, indicating that the synergetic effect of Lewis and Brønsted acid sites is critical to achieving high HMF yield. Under optimal reaction conditions, Fe/β-0.06 catalyst afforded 61% HMF yield at glucose conversion of 95% after the reaction of 90 min at 120 °C, which is one of the most effective catalysts for the conversion of glucose into HMF in a biphasic medium up to now. Furthermore, extra-framework isolated Fe species bound to the framework Al sites, are most likely the active sites for the isomerization of glucose-to-fructose in the conversion of glucose. The catalysts were very stable and could be reused at least five runs without significant loss in the catalytic activity .

Recently, it was reported photocatalytic H 2 O 2 generation performed in biphasic system could significantly increase the H 2 O 2 yield. Aiming to further improve the H 2 O 2 yield, hydrophobic heterojunction of α-S and vacancy-rich g-C 3 N 4 (CNN) was constructed. H 2 O 2 production performance tests demonstrated the 0.2α-S/CNN composite achieved H 2 O 2 yields 1.72 and 1.99 times higher than pristine CNN and α-S, respectively. N-(C) 3 bonded nitrogen(N 3 C ) promoted oxygen activation, and heterojunction facilitated the separation of photogenerated holes and electrons. These contributed more effective photocatalytic synthesis of H 2 O 2 . The optimal 0.2α-S/CNN achieved a production rate of 2218 μmol g −1 , with an impressive apparent quantum yield (AQE) of 6.92 % under 455 nm monochromatic light, outperforming the state-of-the-art catalysts. The proposed mechanism suggested that photogenerated electrons migrated from α-S to CNN, reducing adsorbed O 2 to form •O 2 − radicals. These radicals subsequently reacted with water in the aqueous phase to generate H 2 O 2 via 2e − ORR. Due to the strong hydrophobicity of the catalyst, most •O 2 − radicals were generated in benzyl alcohol (BA) phase, while H 2 O 2 predominantly formed in the aqueous phase. This spatial separation delayed H 2 O 2 decomposition, facilitating its accumulation and enhancing overall yield.

The NASICON-type Na4MnV(PO4)3 (NMVP) possesses potential as a cathode material in SIBs, and is known for its stable 3D Na+ superconductive framework, high voltage platform, and relatively low cost and toxicity. Nevertheless, the intrinsic poor electronic conductivity and Jahn–Teller effect from Mn3+ during cycling limit its further application. Herein, to address such issues, a well-designed 3D porous spheroidal Ce3+-doped NMVP@CeO2/C cathode was constructed via a simple spraying drying-assisted route. As proved, the synergistic effect of Ce3+ doping in the crystal framework and CeO2 surface coating was achieved simultaneously, which greatly improved the electronic conductivity, facilitated the ion diffusion transfer and stabilized the crystalline structure. As a result, the as-prepared sample delivered superior discharge performance (50.3 mA h g−1 at 50C) and long circular life (91.0 mA h g−1 after 2000 cycles at 5C with 86.7% capacity retention). Furthermore, the reversible biphasic reaction for cathodes was confirmed by Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) and ex situ XRD. The DFT calculation revealed the influence of Ce3+-doping on the crystalline framework and electrochemical properties. Finally, the optimized NMVP cathode also showed great potential for practical utilization through the successful assembly of full cells.
