Sodium p -perfluorous nonenoxybenzene sulfonate (OBS), an economical alternative to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) in multiple industrial fields, is widely detected in the environment. The toxicity of OBS has received increasing attention. Pituitary cells are components of the endocrine system and act as vital regulators of homeostatic endocrine balance. However, the effects of OBS on pituitary cells remain unknown. The present study explores the effects of OBS (0.5, 5, and 50 μM) on GH3 rat pituitary cells after treatment for 24, 48, and 72 h. We found that OBS significantly inhibited cell proliferation in GH3 cells with remarkable senescent phenotypes, including enhanced SA-β-gal activity and expression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)-related genes, cell cycle arrest, and upregulation of the senescence-related proteins γ-H2A.X and Bcl-2. OBS caused significant cell cycle arrest of GH3 cells at the G1-phase and concomitantly downregulated the expression of some key proteins for the G1/S transition, including cyclin D1 and cyclin E1. Consistently, the phosphorylation of retinoblastoma (RB), which plays a central role in regulating the cell cycle, was prominently reduced after OBS exposure. Furthermore, OBS notably activated the p53-p21 signalling pathway in GH3 cells, as evidenced by increased p53 and p21 expressions, enhanced p53 phosphorylation, and augmented p53 nuclear import. To our knowledge, this study is the first to reveal that OBS triggers senescence in pituitary cells via the p53-p21-RB signalling pathway. Our study demonstrates a novel toxic effect of OBS in vitro, and provides new perspectives for understanding the potential toxicity of OBS.

The dimensional reduction theory is applied to an A2O–P2O5–Bi2O3 system where P2O5 serves as a binary parent while A2O and Bi2O3 are regarded as dimensional reduction agents. Thus, three novel phosphates ACs5Bi4(PO4)2(P2O7)3 (A = K, Rb and Cs) have been prepared through the high-temperature solution method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements reveal that they all crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c (no. 14) and in their structures, two different kinds of P–O units, i.e. isolated PO4 tetrahedra and P2O7 dimers, are interconnected by Bi–O groups to construct a 3∞[Bi4(PO4)2(P2O7)36−] framework. Note that with the change of cationic size in their structures, the Bi3+ cations also exhibit flexible coordination, i.e. BiO5 and BiO6 polyhedra in KCs5Bi4(PO4)2(P2O7)3 and only BiO6 polyhedra in Cs6Bi4(PO4)2(P2O7)3, suggesting that combining the flexible coordination of Bi3+ cations with phosphates based on dimensional reduction theory is an effective strategy to guide the synthesis of new compounds.

Four new alkali metal boroantimonates, namely, A2SbB3O8 (A = Na, K, Rb) and β-RbSbB2O6, have been synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reactions. Isostructural A2SbB3O8 (A = Na, K, Rb) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with structures featuring a novel 3D anionic framework composed of SbO6 octahedra and linear B3O8 groups with 1D tunnels of Sb4B4 8-membered-rings (MRs) along the a-axis, which are filled by alkali metal ions. β-RbSbB2O6 crystallizes in the polar space group Cc, revealing novel 3D anionic networks composed of SbO6 octahedra chains and B2O5 groups with 1D tunnels of Sb4B2 6-MRs along the b-axis and 1D tunnels of Sb3B4 7-MRs along the c-axis. Studies on their optical properties and thermal stability, band structure calculations based on DFT methods and linear optical calculations have also been performed.

Based on the crystal structure of A2Cu5(TeO3)(SO4)3(OH)4 (A = Na, K), two new compounds ACo5(SeO3)4(OH)2F (A = Rb, Cs) have been synthesized by introducing F− ions, achieving the extension from a one-dimensional kagomé strip lattice to a distorted 2-uniform lattice (T29). Magnetic measurements indicate that RbCo5 exhibits antiferromagnetic order at low temperatures, while CsCo5 shows canted antiferromagnetic behavior. Both compounds display a field-induced magnetic transition at their respective critical fields. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported synthesis of compounds with a distorted 2-uniform lattice (T29).

Mn2+-doped luminescent materials play a significant role in a variety of fields, including modern lighting, displays, and imaging. Mn2+ exhibits a broad and adjustable emission, hinging on the local environment of the crystal field and the interaction of the 3d5 electrons. However, it is still a challenge to realize the precise control of the emission of Mn2+ ions due to site-prior occupation in a specific lattice. Here, the formation of Mn–Mn dimers is proposed to be an effective strategy to design a novel red emission. Multimode emitters in Mn2+-activated AZn4(PO4)3 (A = K, Rb, and Cs) with unique [Zn4PO12] chains and [ZnOn] groups are observed to achieve regular green and unusual red emissions. KZn4(PO4)3:Mn2+ shows broad dual emissions at 542 and 608 nm, attributed to [MnO4] and [Mn2O7] dimers, respectively. While K is replaced with Rb and Cs, the Zn ions form [ZnO4] tetrahedra and [ZnO5] octahedra. RbZn4(PO4)3:Mn2+ exhibits a broad red emission at 618 nm, ascribing to [Mn2O7] and [Mn2O8] dimers. CsZn4(PO4)3:Mn2+ also displays a broad orange-red emission at 608–620 nm with increasing doping levels, deriving from energy transfer from [MnO5] to [Mn2O7] and [Mn2O8] dimers. This work provides a framework for creating novel red emissions from Mn2+-doped luminescent materials.

Infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) material with a concurrently wide band gap and significant NLO coefficient in a single crystal is an incompatible but addressable challenge. Hence, for the first time, the AgGaS 2 structure evolved into an Ag-based sulfide system integrating dual s -block elements, guiding the discovery of two NLO crystals named AMgAgGa 6 S 11 (A = K, 1 ; Rb, 2 ). Structurally, title phases possess a novel NLO functional motif [AgGa 6 S 17 ] assembled by two C 2 -type supertetrahedra through a shared [AgS 4 ] tetrahedron, in which the electropositive cations A + and Mg 2+ are embedded. Thus, compounds 1 and 2 display emulative band gaps (3.15 and 3.25 eV, exceeding that of 2.65 eV in AgGaS 2 ) toward optimizing the laser-induced damage thresholds (3.1 and 3.2 × AgGaS 2 @1064 nm). Remarkably, the noncentrosymmetric phases 1 and 2 exhibit moderate second-harmonic generation (SHG) responses (0.6 and 0.7 × AgGaS 2 @1910 nm), the greater-than-commercial half of the AgGaS 2 . To the best of our current knowledge, an experimental birefringence of 1 and 2 (0.029 and 0.027, @546 nm) is first observed in quinary ordered chalcogenides , indicating that samples 1 and 2 meet phase-matching conditions at the incident laser of 1910 nm. All these observations demonstrate that crystals 1 and 2 can become prospective NLO materials. This research will pave the way for discovering excellent IR NLO crystals with wide band gaps and impressive NLO coefficients by incorporating multiple strong electropositive elements into chalcogenides .

Narrow band red-emitting A2GeF6:Mn4+ (A = Na, K, Rb, Cs) phosphors were prepared through a two-step precipitation–cation exchange route using a K2MnF6 precursor as the Mn4+ source. The phase purity, morphology, and constituent were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectric spectroscopy (XPS), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) examination. Optical properties were investigated by photoluminescence spectra (PL and PLE) and high-resolution PL. A temperature-dependent PL examination was performed to investigate the electron–phonon coupling emission mechanism of Mn4+ in these alkali fluorogermanates. The PL data show that both ordered distribution and appropriate distance between Mn4+ ions are propitious for enhancement of the emission intensity. A resonance emission enhancement (REE) mechanism has been proposed to explain the intensity increment among these products. These phosphors present bright red emission under blue light (467 nm) illumination, among which Cs2GeF6:0.03Mn4+ exhibits the most excellent optical properties with a quantum yield (QY) of 93%. A WLED (white light-emitting diode) fabricated with blend of commercial YAG:Ce3+ and this phosphor emits intense warm white light with low color temperature (CCT = 3385 K) and high color rendering index (Ra = 90.5), implying its potential application as red phosphor in WLEDs.

This study addresses the unclear crystallization behavior of rubidium in chlorobromine coexisting brine systems through experimental and simulation approaches. First, the phase equilibrium data of the ternary system RbCl–RbBr–H2O at 298.15 K were determined using the isothermal dissolution equilibrium method, and the corresponding phase diagram was constructed. The solid phase was characterized by XRD and SEM-EDS, and solubility was theoretically calculated and validated using the Pitzer model. To further elucidate the solid-solution formation behavior of rubidium in chlorobromine coexisting brine systems at the microscopic level, molecular dynamics simulations were performed. Combined with the previously reported phase diagrams of MCl–MBr–H2O systems (M = Li+, Na+, K+, NH4+), the radial distribution functions, coordination numbers, and mean square displacements of different systems were systematically analyzed to examine the differences in ionic hydration structures and migration behavior. From macroscopic phase equilibria to microscopic ion dynamics, this study systematically clarifies the common patterns of formation of continuous solid solutions in chlorobromine coexisting brine systems.

Mn 4+ -activated fluoride red-emitting narrow-band phosphors have been successfully used in wide color-gamut white LEDs for liquid crystal display (LCD) backlights. However, highly concentrated and toxic HF is usually used in their synthesis, causing environment and safety issues. In this work, we proposed a HF-free green method, that is, using NH 4 F/HCl instead of HF, to synthesize a series of A 2 X F 6 :Mn 4+ ( A = K, Na, Rb, Cs; X = Si, Ge, Ti) phosphors. The microstructure, photoluminescence (PL) properties, thermal quenching, and applications of the synthesized phosphors were investigated. Using the proposed approach, the phosphors generally showed a pure phase, a particle size ranging from 5 to 45 μm, and some characteristic sharp emission lines of Mn 4+ in the red spectral range. The internal quantum efficiency was varied in a broad range of 69%-94% under the 460 nm excitation, depending on the composition of the fluoride host. Among these compositions, K 2 X F 6 :Mn 4+ ( X = Ge and Ti) phosphors even had a similar external quantum efficiency (>60%) with commercial ones. By combining K 2 GeF 6 :Mn 4+ (narrow-band red) and β -sialon:Eu 2+ (narrow-band green) with a blue LED, a white light-emitting diode (wLED) backlight with a color gamut of 87.7% National Television System Committee Standard, color temperature of 8423 K, and a luminous efficacy of 110.8 lm/W was demonstrated. These results indicate that the synthetic method proposed in this work is universal for preparing highly efficient fluoride phosphors used in wLEDs.

Four alkali metal bismuth sulfates, NaBi(SO 4 ) 2 · H 2 O ( 1 ) and ABi(SO 4 ) 2 [A = K ( 2 ), Rb ( 3 ), Cs ( 4 )], were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal methods. The crystal structure of 1 features a three-dimensional tunnel framework constructed by BiO 9 tri-capped trigonal prisms and SO 4 tetrahedra interconnected via common corners and edges. Compound 2 exhibits a two-dimensional 2 ∞ [Bi(SO 4 ) 2 ] – double-layered structure, assembled by one-dimensional 1 ∞ [BiS(1)O 4 ] + chains which are linked via S(2)O 4 2– tetrahedra. The isostructural compounds 3 and 4 possess a two-dimensional layered structure, and the layers being composed by BiO 8 square antiprism and SO 4 tetrahedra. The alkali metal cations are located between the layers or in the tunnels of the structures, respectively. The differences in the crystal structures of the title compounds can mainly be attributed to the different sizes of the alkali metal cations and their different coordination environments. Thermogravimetric analysis evidence that compound 1 losses one equivalent of water at 120 °C whereas the anhydrous compounds 2 – 4 are stable up to about 450, 575, and 578 °C, respectively. The solid-state UV/Vis/NIR diffuse reflectance spectra indicate bandgaps of approximately 4.48, 4.43, 3.98, and 3.96 eV for compounds 1 – 4 , respectively.

Birefringent crystals with strong anisotropy are important components in modern optical devices. The newly discovered planar π-conjugated cyanurate group (HxC3N3O3)x−3 (x = 0–3) has been demonstrated as an effective functional motif for improving birefringence in the ultraviolet region. Here, single co-crystals of alkali halide cyanurates, RbBr·(H3C3N3O3) (I), RbI·(H3C3N3O3) (II), and CsBr·(H3C3N3O3) (III) were synthesized by the ethanol solution method, and NaBr·(H3C3N3O3) (IV) was obtained via the solvent-drop grinding method. These four co-crystals feature a planar (H3C3N3O3) arrangement and exhibit wide band gaps (> 4.90 eV), tunable birefringence (Δnexp ∼ 0.124–0.256), and high thermal stability (156 °C–349 °C). In addition, first principles calculations were also carried out to evaluate the relationship between molecule density, spatial arrangement and optical birefringence, and suggested a great tailoring effect of the alkali metal and halogen species on regulating the optical anisotropy of co-crystal cyanurates.

Previously, the formation of a stable adduct 2H3BO3·3CsCl (BC) was observed in CsCl(aq) but not in RbCl(aq). The phase equilibria of the H3BO3 + RbCl + CsCl + H2O system were studied to assess the potential for selective separation of Cs from Rb. Solubility isotherms were determined experimentally. Appropriate liquid composition ranges were preselected using modeling with ISLEC’s equilibrium software. Schreinemakers’ wet solid method, XRD, Raman and IR spectra, Roozeboom’s plots, and SEM-EDS were applied to identify the four phase regions H3BO3, 2H3BO3·3(Cs,Rb)Cl (Bss), (Rb,Cs)Cl, and (Cs,Rb)Cl. Notably, in the presence of RbCl, the BC phase incorporates Rb+, forming a substitutional solid solution, Bss, which inhibits selective separation of CsCl. Roozeboom’s plot analysis revealed that RbCl exhibits higher solubility in the Bss phase compared to the (Cs,Rb)Cl solid solution. The separation factor βCs/Rb between the solid Bss phase and the corresponding solution was 2.0, significantly lower than that of (Cs,Rb)Cl (βCs/Rb = 9.5) in the ternary system without H3BO3. This indicates a stronger coordination between CsCl and H3BO3 relative to that of RbCl in the ternary system without H3BO3. The above understanding provides new strategies designing novel B–OH compounds to enhance Cs/Rb separation efficiency in aqueous systems.
