Abstract A series of cellulose-based fluorescent materials are prepared under relative mild conditions by use of the DMSO/1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU)/CO 2 system to utilize as coating pigments. Through the observation under 365 nm UV light, the cellulose-based fluorescent materials exhibit good fluorescence response and bright color. Furthermore, due to the limitation of the molecular skeleton of cellulose, the intrinsic aggregation caused quenching phenomenon commonly existed in conventional organic fluorescent pigments can be effectively inhibited, which is very helpful to retain good fluorescence response in epoxy-based coating material and its coating films. Moreover, the addition of cellulose-based fluorescent materials also increases the mechanical properties of the coating film. The increase of tensile strength and tensile modulus respectively reaches ~39% and ~66%. Solvent resistance and thermal property of the coating films generally remain unchanged. The fabrication of cellulose-based fluorescent materials in DMSO/DBU/CO 2 system provides a feasible way to develop the functional application of cellulose. Graphic abstract

An acid functionalized porous organic hyper-cross-linked polymer (HCP) derived from benzene monomer was prepared for catalytic dehydration of carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) in a DMSO solvent. Systematic characterizations of the HCP catalysts including essential structural properties, sulfur content and acid amount, were identified by XRD, XPS, FESEM, Raman, NH 3 -TPD, TGA, nitrogen physisorption and elemental analysis. Optimization of reaction parameters such as acid amount, solvent, substrate type, temperature and catalyst dosage, and comparison with reported solid acids were systematically investigated. The results showed that sulfonated HCP materials were highly active in fructose dehydration, which could afford a highest HMF yield of 96.7% at almost 100% fructose conversion in 30 min. Furthermore, the catalyst presented satisfied performance and stability during recycling tests. More importantly, the sulfonated HCP catalysts also exhibited promising activity in hydrolytic reaction, esterification and transesterification for platform chemicals production in biomass transformation.

The dissolution and homogeneous processing of lignocellulosic biomass presents a significant challenge for advanced biorefineries. In this work, we firstly investigated the dissolution behavior of corn stover-based lignocellulose in 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU)/CO 2 /DMSO solvent system. The dissolution proportion reached 74.3 % via a two-step procedure, which involved pretreating of corn stover in DBU/DMSO solvent at 140 °C for 4 h, followed by dissolution at 50 °C for 6 h under 5 MPa CO 2 . Furthermore, the solubility of the corn stover can be improved by ball-milling treatment. Rheological behavior revealed that the solution viscosity and the intermolecular interactions decreased following ball-milling treatment. Subsequently, a small amount of wood pulp cellulose was incorporated to produce mechanically robust, fully UV-shielding, and all-biomass composite films. The tensile strength of the composite film containing 50 wt% wood pulp cellulose reached 47 MPa. This study provides significant insights into the development of green dissolution systems for lignocellulose and the development of lignocellulose-based advanced materials.

The conversion of concentrated 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) or fructose to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a renewable alternative to petroleum-derived terephthalate acid, is highly desirable but challenging for FDCA production in an industrial scale. In this contribution, DMSO/H 2 O mixture was demonstrated as an effective medium for the production of FDCA from high concentration of HMF or fructose. For example, FDCA yield up to 93% was achieved at 10 wt% HMF concentration in DMSO/H 2 O over commercially available Ru/C (2 equiv. NaHCO 3 , 130 °C, 4 MPa O 2 and 12 h). Furthermore, an overall FDCA yield of 65% was achieved from concentrated fructose (19 wt%) through a facile two-step process. Notably, it is so far the highest HMF or fructose concentration employed for FDCA formation. As compared to pure water or DMSO , DMSO/H 2 O mixed system is able to stabilize HMF in an alkaline environment, which allows the efficient oxidation of HMF at high concentrations.

A mixed dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 2-methoxy ethanol (MOE) solvent system was developed to prepare high-quality kesterite Cu 2 ZnSn(S, Se) 4 (CZTSSe) film. The precursor films made pure DMSO system show a tube-like microstructure morphology, which can be changed by adding MOE to the solution. The increase of MOE in the precursor solution is a key in the crystalline characteristic of the absorber and connecting performance with thin film solar cells. As V MOE = V DMSO , the CZTSSe layer can achieve good contact with the back electrode and obtain large grains across layers. The addition of MOE solvent effectively improves the fill factor (FF). Specifically, both the fill factor and efficiency are increased from 49.67% and 6.43% to 64.83% and 10.99%, respectively, with the addition of 2 mL of MOE into precursor solution prepared by DMSO.

The high value-added utilization of cellulose with various functions is a hot topic in the field of bio-based materials. The existing high value-added utilization methods mainly rely on the dissolution and functionalization of cellulose in two steps in a homogeneous system. Herein, a new CS 2 /DBU/DMSO solvent system was successfully designed by combining viscose and CO 2 switchable solvent, and then obtained regenerated product (DCC) with metal ion detection and antibacterial functions through a simple process from dissolution to regeneration. Cellulose dissolves mildly and efficiently in this system. In addition, the metal ion test paper prepared from DCC can quickly respond to Co 2+ , Cu 2+ , and Fe 3+ ions and produce significant visual color changes in a short period of time. Finally, the experiment showed that the DCC film has good antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli . This study lays the foundation for the dissolution, derivation, and processing of cellulose, and provides new ideas for the production of functional materials using cellulose in the future.

The reaction of cellulose with CO2 in the presence of various organic superbases resulted in a novel CO2 derivative dissolution strategy for cellulose, presenting a special solvent system for cellulose dissolution processing and derivatization. The properties of the cellulose solution are important for the preparation of particular regenerated materials via dissolution processing. Herein, properties of the cellulose solution in a CO2/1.8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene/dimethyl sulfoxide (CO2/DBU/DMSO) solvent system were first systematically studied, and it was found that the apparent viscosities of cellulose solutions were highly dependent on the cellulose type, concentration and temperature. The overlap concentrations (c*) were determined to be 2 and 0.6 wt% for the microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and wood pulp solutions, respectively. The Cox–Merz rule was valid for cellulose solutions in the CO2/DBU/DMSO solvent system. Furthermore, taking advantage of the reversible chemistry of CO2 in this solvent system, a reversible CO2-controlled sol–gel transition of the newly achieved cellulose solution in CO2/DBU/DMSO was identified by dynamic rheology of measuring the temperature dependence of storage modulus (G′) and loss modulus (G′′). Furthermore, the interesting CO2-controlled sol–gel transition was developed via integrated thermal-induced CO2 release and anti-solvent extraction for the preparation of regenerated cellulosic gel materials and then cellulose films with a tensile strength of 44.3 MPa. Interestingly, it was found that the regenerated cellulose through this approach turned out to be a cellulose IVI crystalline structure.

In cryopreservation, the addition of cryoprotectant can change the intra- and extra-cellular osmotic pressure, affect the cell morphology, and induce blebs on the plasma membrane. In this study, the blebs of cells microencapsulated in the alginate microsphere induced by osmotic shock were studied, and the effects of microencapsulation on bleb size and cell viability were determined. Firstly, a coaxial co-flow focusing device was applied to generate cell-laden microcapsules using alginate hydrogel in this paper. Then, cellular blebs induced by DMSO with various concentrations under microencapsulation were compared with that when non-encapsulated, and the dynamic process of cellular bleb was investigated. Finally, the qualitative relationship between bleb size and cell viability in the presence of DMSO was built, and thus the effects of microencapsulation on bleb size and viability were evaluated. The results show that the bleb size is smaller and the cell viability is higher, and cell microencapsulation can significantly inhibit the excessively large blebs generated on the cell membrane and reduce the osmotic damage to cells when loading cryoprotectant and then to improve cell viability during cryopreservation. This work can provide insights for optimizing cryoprotectant-loading protocols, offer a new avenue to study cell blebbing, and advance future research on cryopreservation of rare cells and biomaterials.

The facile design and preparation of polyelectrolytes is a frontier topic in the fields of polymer science, energy storage devices and catalysis. Herein, linear water soluble cellulosic poly(protic ionic liquid) (CPIL) electrolytes were facilely and atom economically prepared after the dissolution of cellulose in the newly developed DBU/CO2/DMSO solvent system, followed by the simple addition of succinic anhydride under mild conditions. The DBU not only participated in the dissolution of cellulose as a solvent component, but also acted as an organocatalyst for the acylation reaction of cellulose with succinic anhydride, as well as a cation component in the targeted CPIL electrolytes. The reaction was optimized, and the effect of the reaction conditions on the chemical and physical properties of the CPILs was investigated. And then, as a proof of concept, the CPIL electrolyte aqueous solution was successfully used as the catalytic reaction media for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction. It was found that the reaction was homogeneous at the beginning, and the products could precipitate out from the media with the proceeding of the reaction, thus affording satisfactory filtration yields ranging from 56.7% to 93.8%. The solution properties of the CPIL aqueous solution were primarily investigated towards an in-depth understanding of the catalytic mechanism, by which a synergetic catalytic mechanism of the CPILs was proposed, and the reaction started with a nucleophilic addition reaction, and was then followed by a fast dehydration reaction. Finally, the direct reusability potential of the CPIL aqueous solution after the product filtration was also primarily investigated for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction.

In the face of challenges presented by rapid urbanization and industrialization, the surge in dye wastewater has emerged as a prominent concern. This study introduces a pioneering novel approach aimed at augmenting the electrocatalytic efficiency of O 2 reduction to H 2 O 2 through the modification of a hybrid catalyst with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to construct gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs). The hybrid catalyst, consisting of carbon black and DMSO, was meticulously fabricated, and its electrocatalytic activity was thoroughly investigated using various characterization techniques. Within 180 min, the 3 %DM cathode showcased efficient H 2 O 2 generation, reaching 850 μM, and remarkable oxygen utilization, achieving 60.49 %. Intriguingly, the fabricated 3 %DM hybrid catalyst maintained a three-phase interfacial (TPI) due to its super-hydrophilic property. This study elucidates the pivotal role of DMSO in enhancing the performance of hybrid catalysts for O 2 reduction to H 2 O 2 . The insights provide valuable perspectives into the development of efficient and resilient electrochemical systems for sustainable energy conversion and environmental applications.

In order to ameliorate the issues of corrosion and high regeneration energy associated with traditional biphasic solvents, a nonaqueous biphasic solvent has been proposed as a potential alternative. This study introduces Tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) as a phase splitter within the Ethanolamine (MEA)/Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) system, resulting in a novel nonaqueous biphasic solvent, TMEDA/MEA/DMSO. Compared with other screened phase splitters, the appropriate polar size and intermolecular interaction force of TMEDA are the key factors that make it comply with the screening of nonaqueous biphasic solvent. When the mass ratio of TMEDA/MEA/DMSO is maintained at 3:3:4, the CO 2 loading attains 0.54 mol (CO 2 )/mol (MEA), with the rich phase comprising 75 % of the total. 13 C NMR and FT-IR characteristics showed that the absorbent product is mainly in the form of MEACOO − /MEAH + . Absorption and phase separation mechanisms of absorbent elucidated by DFT calculations and molecular dynamics simulations. The limited opportunity for TMEDA to interact with MEA molecules emerges as the primary reason for its reduced involvement in the reaction, with the inclusion of TMEDA intensifying the aggregation of MEACOO − /MEAH + and triggering phase transition. In comparison to a 30 wt% MEA water-based absorbent, TMEDA/MEA/DMSO exhibits a 40 % reduction in regeneration energy (estimate) and possesses energy-saving attributes, rendering it a promising candidate for CO 2 capture.

Abstract The transesterification reaction between cellulose and vinyl esters is regarded as a clean and facile strategy for the tunable synthesis of cellulose esters. In this study, a series of cellulose esters with degrees of substitution from 0.58 to 3.0 have been prepared successfully under mild conditions without adding any external catalysts when cellulose was dissolved in the 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU)/DMSO/CO 2 solvent system and then followed by adding equimolar amounts of long chain fatty, aromatic, branched and steric vinyl esters. The optimization study of different reaction parameters like reaction time, temperature and amounts of substrates demonstrates that the reaction can proceed smoothly even at room temperature. This is evidenced by a cellulose benzoate with a DS of 2.6 obtained when the reaction is performed at 25 °C in 4 h. The as-prepared cellulose esters structure has been confirmed by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and FTIR, and material thermal properties were evaluated by DSC and TGA for an in-depth understanding the relationship between the cellulose esters structure and properties. It is believed that the DBU not only acts as a reagent for the CO 2 -derivative dissolution of cellulose in DMSO, but also acts as an in situ organocatalyst for the subsequent transesterification reaction. Graphical abstract Cellulose esters have been prepared successfully at low temperature using long chain fatty acids, aromatic, branched and steric vinyl esters as acyl donors in the DMSO/DBU/CO 2 solvents system, and the DBU not only acts as reagents for the CO 2 -derivative dissolution of cellulose in DMSO, acts as an organocatalyst for the subsequent derivatisation.
