To address the challenge of lignin removal while preserving cellulose in lignocellulosic biomass valorization, this study developed a novel ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) system composed of triethylbenzyl ammonium chloride (T, as hydrogen bond acceptor), copper chloride (Lewis acid catalyst), and ethylene glycol (EG, hydrogen bond donor) for microwave-assisted pretreatment of corn straw. The DES was designed to leverage synergistic effects between Lewis acid catalysis and hydrogen bond disruption for selective lignin extraction. Optimization via Box-Behnken experimental design revealed that optimal delignification (96.52%) and hemicellulose removal (94.60%) with 94.79% cellulose retention were achieved under microwave conditions of 130°C, 40 min, liquid-solid ratio 13.1, and CuCl₂/T molar ratio 0.198. Comparative characterization of raw and pretreated biomass using SEM, FT-IR, and XRD demonstrated that T-CuCl₂-EG disrupted the lignocellulose matrix by breaking ether/ester bonds in lignin-carbohydrate complexes, selectively solubilizing lignin/hemicellulose while preserving cellulose crystallinity. This work provides a sustainable and efficient strategy for biomass fractionation, with potential applications in biorefineries.

In this study, simulated fly ash containing CuO/CuCl 2 was heated at 350 °C in a flow of N 2 and also in a nitrogen flow containing 10 vol% H 2 , to evaluate the influence of hydrogen adding on dioxin formation. The total polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/F) output derived from the CuO sample under N 2 and 10 % H 2 was 7.382 and 0.708 ng/g, respectively. As for CuCl 2 , it was 589 and 46.1 ng/g, respectively. The results show that the hydrogen adding has a good inhibition effect on PCDD/F formation; the inhibition rate was higher than 90 % for PCDD/Fs. HCl and NH 3 were detected by Gasmet in the flue gas; the probable inhibition mechanism of hydrogen reaction was proposed, based on our measurements and others’ researches.

A three-component reaction of olefins, indoles, and diaryl diselenides catalyzed by copper chloride under irradiation of blue LED light is disclosed. Various diaryl diselenides including diheteroaryl diselenides are suitable for this bifunctionalization of olefins. This protocol provides 26 examples of β-(hetero)arylselenyl indoles in 60%–87% yields. The proposed mechanism involves activation of diaryl diselenides by coordination with copper chloride, generation of arylselenium cations by heterolysis of activated diaryl diselenides, electrophilic addition of arylselenium cations to styrenes, and then Friedel–Crafts-type alkylation at the 3-position of NH-indoles.

Recently, copper(I)-based metal halides have gained increasing attention due to their diverse structures and desirable optoelectronic properties. Herein, we report a novel zero-dimensional (0D) Cu-based halide (C 20 H 20 OP)CuCl 2 [C 20 H 20 OP + = (Methoxymethyl)triphenylphosphonium chloride cation], single crystals (SCs) of which were synthesized by a simple solution growth method. The bulk assembly of the periodic 0D structure is formed by the organic cation [C 20 H 20 OP] + surrounding isolated [CuCl 2 ] - units. The (C 20 H 20 OP)CuCl 2 single crystals emit broadband yellow light upon UV excitation. Similarity to hybrid Br − /I − based copper compounds, as-synthesized compound displays remarkable resistance to water, maintaining its photoluminescence (PL) intensity at over 94% even after being immersed in water for 24 h. This work demonstrates the potential of constructing luminescent materials with high water resistance, which will pave the way for a new approach to developing water-resistant materials based on lead-free metal halides.

High-valent Au(III) complexes have attracted much attention as catalysts in many reactions. Nevertheless Au(III) catalysts suffer from instability of the oxidized metal complexes during preparation and use. Herein, we demonstrated that Au(III) catalysts can be stabilized against reduction to metallic Au 0 by modifying supported-ionic-liquid-phase-stabilized Au(III) catalyst with CuCl 2 . It was found that the that reduced Au 0 could be re-oxidized in situ to Au 3+ species by CuCl 2 during the reaction and further stabilized by the electron transfer from Cu to these active species. When evaluated in the acetylene hydrochlorination reaction, the Au-Cu-IL/AC catalyst displayed an excellent specific activity with the turnover frequency (TOF) as high as 168.5 h −1 and more than 99.8% selectivity for the product, vinyl chloride (VCM). Furthermore, the Au-Cu-IL/AC catalyst demonstrated a stable catalytic performance with a negligible loss of C 2 H 2 conversion after 500 h under typical industrial reaction conditions for acetylene hydrochlorination. Therefore, the findings of this work provide an efficient approach for designing stable high-valent metals for long-term operation, and also pave the way for the application of Au-Cu-IL/AC catalyst in industrial VCM production.

Recently, low-dimensional metal halides (LDMHs) have attracted tremendous attention due to their fascinating optoelectronic properties. Here, we report an organic–inorganic hybrid Cu(I)-based metal halide of (TPA)CuCl2 (TPA+ = tetrapropylammonium cation), where the isolated [CuCl2]− units are surrounded by TPA+, thus forming a zero-dimensional block. Moreover, the as-synthesized compound shows a broad green emission with a photoluminescence (PL) quantum efficiency of 91.8% and a large Stokes shift of 230 nm, stemming from the self-trapped exciton (STE) transition. Variable-temperature Raman spectra reveal that there is a strong anharmonic electron–phonon coupling in (TPA)CuCl2, which provides clear evidence for the formation of STEs, and this is also supported by the temperature-dependent PL spectra of (TPA)CuCl2. Moreover, it was found that TPA+ not only works as a ligand but also participates in the STE emission. Our results provide a clear statement that the formation of the STE is related not only to the low-frequency phonon of [CuCl2]− clusters but also to the mid-infra vibration of organic molecules, which promotes the understanding of the emission mechanism of LDMHs.

Hollow porous carbon nanospheres (HPCS) are ideal scaffolds for phase change materials in thermal energy storage. However, their synthesis traditionally relies on template-based routes, involving tedious procedures and high costs. This study presents a facile method for preparing HPCS through one-step carbonization of phenolic resin using CuCl 2 as the activation agent. This mild activation agent not only helps create a rich porous structure, but also maintains the hollow spherical architecture of the polymer precursor. More importantly, copper ions are reduced to copper nanoparticles during the carbonization process and are in-situ loaded into porous carbon, enhancing the thermal conductivity of the scaffold. After incorporating paraffin, the resulting composite exhibits a high phase change enthalpy of 104.4 J g −1 , improved thermal conductivity of 0.95 W m −1 K −1 , and excellent thermal cycling stability (100.5 J g −1 after 50 heating-cooling cycles), indicating significant potential for thermal energy storage and management.

Adsorbents including CuCl 2 -AC, CuCl 2 -13X, Cu(NO 3 ) 2 -AC and Cu(NO 3 ) 2 -13X were prepared to remove trace phosphine from recycled hydrogen in the Siemens process of producing polysilicon , and adsorptive mechanisms were determined by X-ray diffraction and intermittent breakthrough experiments. CuCl 2 could disperse better on supporters than Cu(NO 3 ) 2 , and it existed in its original form. However, Cu(NO 3 ) 2 decomposed into copper oxide or basic cupric nitrate, and showed conspicuous thermal aggregation effect after calcination . Interactive effects between cupric components and supporters varied form species to species and deactivated the reactivity of CuCl 2 and Cu(NO 3 ) 2 in different degree, which resulted in disparities of adsorbents’ performances. CuCl 2 -AC and Cu(NO 3 ) 2 -AC had better performances than CuCl 2 -13X and Cu(NO 3 ) 2 -13X because cupric components were deactivated more when loaded on 13X zeolite. Chemical transformation of phosphine made adsorbents’ surface renewable, and the renewed rate depended on the reactivity of cupric components. All of adsorbents showed significant recoveries of efficiencies in intermittent experiments.

Thiourea can effectively inhibit the formation of highly toxic chlorinated aromatics in postcombustion zone. However, the inhibition mechanism was still not adequately understood. In this study, naphthalene was adopted as a model aromatic compound to investigate the inhibition effect and mechanism of thiourea on the formation of chlorinated aromatics via electrophilic chlorination over Cu and Fe chlorides. Thiourea addition resulted in the reductions of 77.6–99.8% and 36.4–98.1% in the yield of polychlorinated naphthalenes from naphthalene chlorination mediated by CuCl2 and FeCl3 at 150–300 °C, respectively. The inhibition efficiency of chlorination presented a decreasing tendency with increasing reaction temperature and O2 content in flue gas. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the thiourea-induced reduction of highly active Cu (II) and Fe (III) chlorides to less active Cu (I) and Fe (II) chlorides was a primary mechanism for inhibiting aromatic chlorination. [thiourea–Cu]+ complex generated during the reduction process could be transformed into CuS and Cu2S, and isomeric reaction product NH4SCN could react with Cu2+ to produce Cu(SCN)2 and then also form Cu sulfides, suggesting sulfidization of Cu chloride was another important inhibition mechanism. Chlorination inhibition induced by the volatile decomposition products of thiourea might only play a minor role.

To promote the functionalization of chitosan-based films, lignin separated from Moso bamboo using type IV deep eutectic solvents (DESs; FeCl 3 /glycerol (Gly), AlCl 3 /Gly, and CuCl 2 /Gly) was incorporated into chitosan to prepare lignin/chitosan composite films. For comparison, lignin pretreated with an aqueous NaOH solution was prepared and used for forming a film. The systematic characterization of lignin samples and lignin/chitosan composite films was performed using advanced analytical techniques. Gel permeation chromatography showed that the type-IV-DES-pretreated lignin sample possessed a lower molecular weight and more uniform structure than the NaOH-pretreated lignin sample, which was more conducive to increasing the compatibility between lignin and chitosan. 31 P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and two-dimensional heteronuclear correlation results revealed that the excellent antioxidant activity of lignin following AlCl 3 /Gly pretreatment was due to the high phenolic hydroxyl group content (1.16 mmol/g). Moreover, the free-radical scavenging capacity of the resulting DES-pretreated lignin/chitosan composite film reached 83.12 %, which was 3.4-fold higher than that of the pure chitosan film. In general, type-IV-DES-pretreated lignin was superior to NaOH-pretreated lignin in terms of enhancing the ultraviolet-shielding ability, antioxidant capacity, and antibacterial properties of the chitosan films. Notably, these films have great potential for use in food packaging applications.
