5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is an important platform chemical derived from biomass. Tremendous efforts have been made to transform HMF into valuable chemicals for applications in biofuels, materials science, and pharmaceuticals. Here we report the conversion of HMF into 5-hydroxymethyl-2-vinylfuran (HMVF), a versatile adhesive. HMVF can bond to a variety of substrates, e.g. metal, glass, plastics and rubber, under heating or acid treatment at room temperature. Mechanistic studies show that the vinyl group undergoes free radical polymerization and the hydroxyl group dehydrates to form an ether linkage to crosslink HMVF under either heating or acid treatment. The bonding strength (τ) of HMVF cured by heating (h-HMVF) is close to that of Krazy Glue (Loctite 401, cyanoacrylate) and higher than that of white glue (Pattex No. 710, PVA) and Pattex PKME15C epoxy glue. The outstanding adhesive performance of HMVF is attributed both to the interaction of hydroxyl groups with substrates and crosslinking by etherification between hydroxyl groups. Similar to Krazy Glue, HMVF is also used in its monomer form, which eliminates the use of solvents. Cells show good adhesion on crosslinked HMVF, which makes HMVF a potential bio-adhesive.

The global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has indisputably wreaked havoc on societies worldwide, compelling the scientific community to seek urgently needed therapeutic agents with low-cost and low-side effect profiles. Numerous approaches have been investigated in the quest to prevent or treat COVID-19, but many of them exhibit unwelcome side effects, such as dysfunctional viral immune responses and inflammation. Herein, we present the preparation of solid natural human pulmonary alveolar epithelial cell (ATII) membrane-coated PLGA NPs (PLGA NPs@ATII-M), which demonstrate remarkable affinity and competitiveness to neutralize the SARS-CoV-2 S1 protein-coated NPs (SCMMA NPs–S1), which are employed as a surrogate for coronavirus particles. In addition, we first considered the antifouling properties of these types of NPs, and we found that this membrane-coated NP formulation boasts excellent antifouling capabilities, which serve to protect their neutralization properties out of shielding by protein coronas in blood circulation. Moreover, this formulation is easily prepared and stored with a low-cost profile and exhibits good specificity, high targeting efficiency, and potentially side effect avoiding, thus making it a highly promising candidate for COVID-19 treatment.

In the current work, the microviscosity, encapsulation, and permeability of 2-ketooctanoic acid (KOCOOH) vesicle membranes were investigated by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques, using 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH), riboflavin, and calcein as fluorescence probes. Our results show that the microviscosity of KOCOOH membranes is similar to that of common bilayer aggregates, the KOCOOH vesicles have the ability to encapsulate hydrophilic guests, and the KOCOOH membranes are permeable to ions. The permeation of OH− across KOCOOH membranes can be well described using a first-order kinetic model. The KOCOOH vesicles may be a good alternative protocell model that possesses some functional properties necessary for early cell membranes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the characteristics of vesicle membranes of single-tailed keto-acid amphiphiles.

To identify suitable extractants for extractive enhanced glycerol-CO2 carbonylation, liquid–liquid equilibrium data were determined for glycerol–glycerol carbonate systems with 2-pentanone, cyclohexanone, and 4-methyl-2-pentanone at 423.2, 433.2, and 443.2 K under a pressure of 1.5 MPa. The efficacy of the three extractants in the extraction of glycerol carbonate from glycerol was evaluated using distribution coefficients and extractive selectivity. Among the extractants, cyclohexanone possessed the highest distribution coefficient (>1) and superior extraction capability, while 4-methyl-2-pentanone exhibited the best selectivity for glycerol carbonate over glycerol. The liquid–liquid equilibrium data were then correlated using the Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) model, and the corresponding binary interaction parameters were determined. The regressed parameters effectively reproduced the phase equilibrium trends observed for all studied systems. This work provides fundamental data and parameters for the selection of extractant to enhance the glycerol-CO2 carbonylation through extractive reactions as well as for subsequent process development and optimization for the carbonylation.

Solid-liquid phase-change absorbents (SLPCAs) have a great potential to reduce the energy consumption of CO 2 capture. The main issue in the practical application of SLPCAs is the difficulty in the phase separation of gelatinous solid products. In this study, 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) was used as a regulator to tune the physical form of the solid products of triethylenetetramine (TETA)-based SLPCAs. Experimental results showed that the AMP-regulated TETA-based SLPCAs successfully avoided the formation of gelatinous products (viscosity up to more than 1000 mPa·s) and yielded easily separated crystalline powders. Among the investigated SLPCAs, TETA/AMP/ N -methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) (TETA:AMP = 2:8, 1 M) exhibited the best CO 2 capture performance with a high CO 2 loading of 0.94 mol·mol −1 and a high regeneration efficiency of 84.14 %. XRD, FT-IR and 13 C NMR analyses indicated that TETA/AMP/NMP absorbed CO 2 to form highly polar carbamate species and protonated amines, which could break the original assimilation state of the SLPCA system; thus, the polar products precipitated out from less polar NMP, leading to a phase change. The theoretical calculations revealed that in the absence of AMP, the TETA-derived products had a tendency to form gelatinous aggregation with large amounts of hydrogen bonds; with the introduction of AMP, the AMP-derived products tended to combine with the TETA-derived products via strong electrostatic attraction and Van der Waals force and effectively inhibited the aggregation formation. Since there was only one hydrogen bond forming between the AMP- and TETA-derived product molecules, the amount of hydrogen bonds was significantly reduced. Eventually, the TETA/AMP/NMP SLPCA avoided the formation of gelatinous products and yielded crystalline powder products.

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) copolymers are important precursors for the preparation of high-performance PAN-based carbon fibers. In this study, different ratios of P(AN-co-AMPS) and P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) were prepared by solution polymerization. The compositional structure, thermal, and crystallization properties of P(AN-co-AMPS) and P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) were characterized. The results show that an increase in the AMPS feeding ratio is beneficial for improving the thermal stability and crystallization ability of the PAN copolymer; however, it also reduces the molecular weight of the copolymer and increases the cyclization exothermic peak temperature, which is not conducive to the preparation of high-performance carbon fibers. This problem is avoided in P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS), which maintains its high thermal stability and crystallization properties when appropriate amounts of MA and AMPS are introduced, and P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) has smoother cyclization exothermic rates, lower onset exothermic temperatures and lower peak exothermic temperatures. The structural changes of PAN, P(AN-co-MA), and P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) during thermal stabilization were investigated in detail using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and it was found that P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) formed more stable structures at lower temperatures. Furthermore, when the AN:MA:AMPS mass ratio is 97.5:1.5:1, P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) has the best overall performance. Our results suggest that the P(AN-co-MA-co-AMPS) has potential as a precursor for carbon fibers.

Two major green leaf volatiles (GLVs) in tea that contribute greatly to tea aroma, particularly the green odor, are (E)-2-hexenal and (Z)-3-hexenal. Until now, their formation and related mechanisms during tea manufacture have remained unclear. Our data showed that the contents of (E)-2-hexenal and (Z)-3-hexenal increased more than 1000-fold after live tea leaves were torn. Subsequently, a new (Z)-3:(E)-2-hexenal isomerase (CsHI) was identified in Camellia sinensis . CsHI irreversibly catalyzed the conversion of (Z)-3-hexenal to (E)-2-hexenal . Abiotic stresses including low temperature, dehydration, and mechanical wounding, did not influence the (E)-2-hexenal content in intact tea leaves during withering, but regulated the proportions of (Z)-3-hexenal and (E)-2-hexenal in torn leaves by modulating CsHI at the transcript level. For the first time, this work reveals the formation of (E)-2-hexenal during tea processing and suggests that CsHI may play a pivotal role in tea flavor development as well as in plant defense against abiotic stresses.

A thin-layer flow cell of low internal volume (12 μL) is incorporated in a flow injection analysis (FIA) system for simultaneous and real-time photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay of anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike 1 (S1) and anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) antibodies. Covalent linkage of S1 and N proteins to two separate polyethylene glycol (PEG)-covered gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)/TiO 2 nanotube array (NTA) electrodes affords 10 consecutive analyses with surface regenerations in between. An indium tin oxide (ITO) allows visible light to impinge onto the two electrodes. The detection limits for anti-S1 and anti-N antibodies were estimated to be 177 and 97 ng mL −1 , respectively. Such values compare well with those achieved with other reported methods and satisfy the requirement for screening convalescent patients with low antibody levels. Additionally, our method exhibits excellent intra-batch (RSD = 1.3%), inter-batch (RSD = 3.4%), intra-day (RSD = 1.0%), and inter-day (RSD = 1.6%) reproducibility. The obviation of an enzyme label and continuous analysis markedly decreased the assay cost and duration, rendering this method cost-effective. The excellent anti-fouling property of PEG enables accuracy validation by comparing our PEC immunoassays of patient sera to those of ELISA . In addition, the simultaneous detection of two antibodies holds great potential in disease diagnosis and immunity studies.

Fe(II)/2-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase (Fe(II)/2-KG DO)-mediated hydroxylation is a critical type of C–H bond functionalization for synthesizing hydroxy amino acids used as pharmaceutical raw materials and precursors. However, DO activity requires 2-ketoglutarate (2-KG), lack of which reduces the efficiency of Fe(II)/2-KG DO-mediated hydroxylation. Here, we conducted multi-enzymatic syntheses of hydroxy amino acids. Using (2s,3r,4s)-4-hydroxyisoleucine (4-HIL) as a model product, we coupled regio- and stereo-selective hydroxylation ofl-Ile by the dioxygenase IDO with 2-KG generation from readily availablel-Glu byl-glutamate oxidase (LGOX) and catalase (CAT). In the one-pot system, H2O2significantly inhibited IDO activity and elevated Fe2+concentrations of severely repressed LGOX. A sequential cascade reaction was preferable to a single-step process as CAT in the former system hydrolyzed H2O2. We obtained 465 mM 4-HIL at 93% yield in the two-step system. Moreover, this process facilitated C–H hydroxylation of several hydrophobic aliphatic amino acids to produce hydroxy amino acids, and C–H sulfoxidation of sulfur-containingl-amino acids to yieldl-amino acid sulfoxides. Thus, we constructed an efficient cascade reaction to produce 4-HIL by providing prerequisite 2-KG from cheap and plentifull-Glu and developed a strategy for creating enzymatic systems catalyzing 2-KG-dependent reactions in sustainable bioprocesses that synthesize other functional compounds.Keywords:Fe(II)/2-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase;2-ketoglutarate generation;regio- and stereo-selective synthesis;hydroxy amino acids;sequential cascade reaction

Design and synthesis of highly selective fluorine ion probes become particularly important owing to the specific role of fluorine ion in chemical and biomedical progresses. As a new-type of fluorescent material, conjugated polymers with unique photometric properties have been widely researched by scientists in the field of the fluorescence sensors. In this study, the polymer PBTPV-OSi containing benzothiazole moiety is synthesized via palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling reaction. This polymer not only exhibits good solubility in organic solvents but also shows high selectivity for fluorine ion detection in comparison to other anions. Upon addition of F− to PBTPV-OSi solution, Si–O cleavage of PBTPV-OSi leads to the fluorescence quenching of the polymer in tetrahydrofuran dramatically, and the detection limit is 8 × 10−6 mol/L. Moreover, besides detecting fluorine ion from organic phase, the probe can also effectively detect potassium fluoride from inorganic phase. More importantly, a naked-eye detectable chromogenic and fluorogenic dual response to fluorine ion (F−) can be visibly noted and the detection process of fluorine ion is relatively fast.

A molecular photosensitizer [Ru(dcbpy)(bpy)2]2+ (dcbpy = 2,2′-bipyridyl-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid) and a proton reduction catalyst Pt(dcbpy)Cl2 were successfully incorporated into a highly robust metal–organic framework (MOF) of Zr(IV)6O4(OH)4(bpdc)6 (bpdc = 4,4′-biphenyldicarboxylic acid) by making use of a mix-and-match approach. The molecular integrity of the Ru and Pt complexes within the MOFs was demonstrated by a variety of techniques, including XRD, BET, TGA, SEM, TEM, HAADF-STEM, EDX, DRUS and XPS. This di-component Ru–Pt@UIO-67 MOF assembly allows a facile arrangement of the photosensitizer and the reduction catalyst with close spatial proximity, promotes the electron transfer between them, and thus leads to a significantly improved hydrogen evolution activity in aqueous solution at pH 5.0 upon visible light irradiation. This Ru–Pt@UIO-67 system represents the first example of MOFs functionalized with two different transition metal complexes, which can be used as a photosensitizer and catalyst, respectively, for hydrogen generation from water.

The density and viscosity of the cyclopropyl methyl ketone (CPMK) + 2-acetylbutyrolactone (ABL) and CPMK + 5-chloro-2-pentanone (CPE) binary mixtures were measured at the temperature range of 303.15 to 333.15 K at atmospheric pressure (about 101.325 ± 0.3 kPa). The excess molar volume and viscosity deviation were calculated based on the experimental data of density and viscosity, and they could be accurately described by the Redlich–Kister equation. In addition, the vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the CPMK-ABL binary system were measured at atmospheric pressure. It was shown that there is no azeotrope in this binary mixture. The VLE data were correlated with NRTL, Wilson, and UNIQUAC models and the interaction parameters obtained were reported. The prediction accuracies of these models were about the same.
