We report an environmentally-friendly approach to the synthesis of hybrids based on porous graphene and metal nanoparticles. The nitrogen-doped porous graphene (N-PG) and Pd nanoparticles decorated N-PG (Pd/N-PG) was synthesized by a plasma method. The N-PG was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, and the results clearly indicate that the amount of nitrogen doping was 6.65 wt%. The synthesized Pd/N-PG hybrid materials were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping. The hybrid material based on Pd/N-PG as a new catalyst was applied in Suzuki reaction. This catalyst offers a number of advantages such as high stability, easy removal from the reaction mixture and reusability with minimal loss of activity, showing better performance than the well-known commercial Pd/C catalyst.

A mesoporous carbon was fabricated using MCM-41 as a template and sucrose as a carbon source. The carbon material was coated on stainless-steel wires by using the sol–gel technique. The prepared solid-phase microextraction fiber was used for the extraction of five volatile aromatic compounds (chlorobenzene, ethylbenzene, o -xylene, bromobenzene, and 4-chlorotoluene) from tea beverage samples (red tea and green tea) prior to gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection. The main experimental parameters affecting the extraction of the volatile aromatic compounds by the fiber, including the extraction time, sample volume, extraction temperature, salt addition, and desorption conditions, were investigated. The linearity was observed in the range from 0.1 to 10.0 μg/L with the correlation coefficients ( r ) ranging from 0.9923 to 0.9982 and the limits of detection were less than 10.0 ng/L. The recoveries of the volatile aromatic compounds by the method from tea beverage samples at spiking levels of 1.0 and 10.0 μg/L ranged from 73.1 to 99.1%.

Phenothiazine derivatives, as sustainable cathode materials for batteries , show significant promise for large-scale electrical energy storage applications. However, the irreversibility of the sulfur redox active center severely limits their energy density and discharge voltage in rechargeable organic batteries . This study concentrates on identifying the potential side reactions that contribute to the irreversibility of phenothiazine-based materials. We propose a molecular design strategy that synergistically blocks the active site and extends the conjugation, markedly improving the electrochemical reversibility of these materials. Our findings reveal that phenothiazine derivatives can undergo two successive, one-electron redox reactions without interference from chemical bond rearrangement and reactive radicals. The assembled cells, utilizing lithium (Li) and sodium (Na) as anodes, display two distinct discharge plateaus at 3.3/3.9 V vs. Li + /Li and 3.1/3.7 V vs. Na + /Na, respectively, with nearly identical contributions from the nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) redox centers. The phenothiazine derivatives designed via this strategy rank among the few phenothiazine-based organic electrode materials capable of achieving highly reversible, two-electron transfer redox reactions in organic batteries.

Nonlinear optical (NLO) materials are useful for applications varying from modulation of optical signals to cancer therapy. Besides inorganic crystals and organic molecules with defined structures, carbonized products have emerged as a new generation of materials showing good NLO properties. Due to the small sizes, the NLO performance of such materials mainly originates from nonlinear absorption. Obtaining a product with a high content of π-conjugated moiety is the key to improving the NLO performance. By using aldehydes bearing π units as the precursors, in this work we synthesized three polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) through one-step pyrolysis, which also have large contents of π-conjugated structures. It was found that a larger size of π unit in the precursor led to a higher content as well as the size of the π-conjugated structure, which induced a bathochromic shift in the emission and an improved performance in the NLO response. When embedded in polymethylmethacrylate films, the products showed reverse saturable absorption (RSA) behavior with β up to 4.20 × 10 −6 m W −1 and optical limit threshold down to 0.0012 J cm −2 , which are comparable to those of metal-doped counterparts. This work gives deep insight on the structure-property relationship of the pyrolyzed products from π-conjugated small molecules, which is also useful for the preparation of task-specific carbon dots (CDs) or PNPs in future.

Palladium (Pd) catalysts play a crucial role in facilitating Suzuki cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of valuable organic compounds. However, conventional heterogeneous Pd catalysts often encounter challenges such as leaching and deactivation during reactions, leading to reduced catalytic efficiency. In this study, we employed an innovative intercalation templating strategy to prepare two-dimensional carbon nanosheets with high nitrogen doping derived from petroleum asphalt, which were utilized as a versatile support for immobilizing Pd nanoparticles (Pd/N-CNS) in efficient Suzuki cross-coupling reactions. The results indicate that the anchoring effect of high-pyridinic N species on the two-dimensional carbon nanosheets enhances interactions between Pd and the support, effectively improving both the dispersibility and stability of the Pd nanoparticles. Notably, the Pd/N-CNS catalyst achieved an overall turnover frequency (TOF) of 2390 h−1for the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction under mild conditions, representing approximately a nine-fold increase in activity compared to commercial Pd/C catalysts. Furthermore, this catalyst maintained an overall TOF of 2294 h−1even after five reaction cycles, demonstrating excellent stability. Theoretical calculations corroborate these observed enhancements in catalytic performance by attributing them to improved electron transfer from Pd to the support facilitated by abundant pyridinic N species. This work provides valuable insights into feasible strategies for developing efficient catalysts aimed at sustainable production of biaromatic compounds.

Stable organic radicals have emerged as a promising option to enhance fluorescence quantum yield (QY), gaining traction in medical treatment due to their unique electronic transitions from the ground state (D 0 ) to the doublet excited state (D 1 ). We synthesized a stable dicyanomethyl radical with a NIR-II fluorescence QY of 0.86 %, surpassing many NIR-II organic dyes. Subsequently, amphiphilic polymer-encapsulated nanoparticles (NPs) containing the radical were created, achieving a NIR-II fluorescence QY of 0.32 %, facilitating high-contrast bio-imaging. These CNPPs exhibit self-enhanced photothermal properties, elevating photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) from 43.5 % to 57.5 % under 915 nm laser irradiation. This advancement enables more efficient photothermal therapy (PTT) with lower dye concentrations and reduced laser power, enhancing both feasibility and safety. Through regular fractionated mild photothermal therapy, we observed the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and an increase in cytokine expression, culminating in combined mild phototherapy (m-PTT)-mediated immunogenic cell death (ICD). Consequently, we developed an immunostimulatory tumor vaccine, showcasing a novel approach for refining photothermal agents (PTA) and optimizing the PTT process.

An efficient and stable palladium species catalyst immobilized on functionalized hyper–cross-linked polymers (HCPs-Pd) has been successfully developed and applied in the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction of diverse types of aromatic halides with aryl boronic acid in this work. The results demonstrated that HCPs-Pd exhibited high catalytic activity, which benefited from the microporous structure of the catalyst guaranteed high dispersibility of active palladium, and high specific surface area, large pore volume, good chemical stability. Under optimal reaction conditions, 93.0% of biphenyl yield in the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction with bromobenzene (C 6 H 5 Br) and phenylboronic acid (C 6 H 7 BO 2 ) as raw material was obtained. The good stability of the HCPs-II-Pd catalyst was verified by five cycles experiments. Perhaps this work provides new insights into the high-yield preparation of aromatic biphenyl compounds employing HCPs-Pd as an efficient and stable catalyst in the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction.

Fast charging of high-energy batteries is critical for transportation electrification but remains challenging because the rapid rise in cell overpotential easily exceeds electrolytes’ fixed electrochemical stability window. Here we design a self-adaptive electrolyte with a dynamically expanding electrochemical stability window that increases in real time during charging, outpacing the rise in overpotential as the charging current intensifies. The self-adaptive electrolyte is a single-phase solution of salt and complementary oxidation- and reduction-resistant solvents at the cloud point composition but can undergo solvent separation to dynamically redistribute solvent components during charging. The oxidation-resistant solvents concentrate at the positive electrode and reduction-resistant solvents accumulate at the negative electrode, broadening the electrolyte stability window in real time during charging. Proof-of-concept experiments validate the versatility of this design in both aqueous zinc-metal and non-aqueous lithium-metal batteries, achieving high Coulombic efficiencies of negative electrodes and enhanced oxidative stability for positive electrodes.

The cGAS-STING pathway mediates the innate immune response to cytosolic DNA, contributing to surveillance against microbial invasion or cellular damage. Once activated, STING recruits TBK1 at the trans-Golgi network (TGN), which in turn phosphorylates IRF3 to induce type I interferon (IFN-I) expression. In contrast to STING, little is known about how TBK1 is transported to the TGN for activation. Here, we show that multiple TGN tethering factors, a group of proteins involved in vesicle capturing, are indispensable for STING-IFN-I signaling. Deletion of TBC1D23, a recently reported tethering factor, in mice impairs the STING-IFN-I signaling, but with insignificant effect on STING-NF-κB signaling. Mechanistically, TBC1D23 interacts with TBK1 via the WASH complex subunit FAM21 and promotes its endosome-to-TGN translocation. Furthermore, multiple TGN tethering factors were reduced in aged mice and senescent fibroblasts. In summary, our study uncovers that TGN tethering factors are key regulators of the STING-IFN-I signaling and suggests that their reduction in senescence may produce aberrant STING signaling.

The debenzylation reaction of hexabenzylhexaazaisowurtzitane (HBIW) and 2,6,8,12-tetraacetyl-4,10-dibenzyl-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (TADBIW) to synthesize 2,6,8,12-tetraacetyl-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (TAIW) is the major challenge in the production of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (HNIW). This is primarily attributed to the reaction needing a lot of palladium catalysts, which tend to deactivate rapidly during the process. In this work, a series of Pd(OH)2/C catalysts were successfully prepared through a convenient deposition-precipitation method by controlling the flow rate of the PdCl2 solution. Employing the 10% Pd(OH)2/C–F0.5 sample, the debenzylation reaction was successfully completed with a lower usage of Pd and shorter time of reaction. For the HBIW debenzylation reaction, the yield of TADBIW was 87.4% at low temperature (25 °C) when 1‰ Pd/HBIW was used, and the higher yield was 89.8% at high temperature (45 °C) when 3‰ Pd/HBIW was used. The TADBIW/Pd/h values of them were 42.5 and 95.7, respectively. For the TADBIW debenzylation reaction, the complete conversion of the reactant was realized when Pd/TADBIW was 2‰. The value of TAIW/Pd/h was 154.6 when Pd/TADBIW was 4‰, which was higher than the reports. Compared to the reported catalysts, the dosage of Pd used in the debenzylation reactions of HBIW and TADBIW was significantly decreased. Furthermore, the 10% Pd(OH)2/C–F0.5 sample was recycled six times with similar performance, demonstrating excellent stability. Based on the analysis of characterization results, it is effortless to find that the flow rate of the PdCl2 solution plays a key role in controlling the adsorption behavior of palladium species on activated carbon. The lower flow rate is beneficial to obtaining Pd nanoparticles with a smaller size, a higher proportion of Pd2+, and a higher metal distribution. This study may provide a simple way to develop palladium catalysts with high performance for related applications.
