One conjugated polymer consisting of carbazole and 3-hexylthiophene moiety, poly (N-Hexyl-2,7-di(2-(4-hexylthiophene)carbazole) (PNDC), has been synthesized by ferric chloride oxidative polymerization. The monomer N-Hexyl-2,7-di(2-(4-hexylthiophene)carbazole was synthesized and characterized by IR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR and MS. UV-vis absorption spectrum, fluorescence spectrum, photoluminescence spectrum and electrochemical properties of the polymer were investigated. Polymer PNDC shows maximum peak appearing at 394 nm in UV-vis absorption spectrum, strongest fluorescence-emission at 482 nm in fluorescence spectrum and maximum emission peak at 492 nm in photoluminescence spectrum. The band-gap ( E
g ), HOMO energy ( E
HOMO ), and LUMO energy ( E
LUMO ) of the polymer were obtained as 2.58, -5.32, and -2.74 eV, respectively.

Novel bio-based and biodegradable block copolymers were synthesized by “click” reaction between poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and polyamide 4 (PA4). Upon tuning the molar mass of PLLA block, the properties of copolymers and electrospun ultrafine fibers were investigated and compared with those of PLLA and PA4 blends. PLLA and PA4 were found incompatible and formed individual crystalline regions, along with reciprocal inhibition in crystallization. Electrospun fibers were highly hydrophobic, even if hydrophilic PA4 was the rich component. The crystallinity of either PLLA or PA4 decreased after electrospinning and PLLA-rich as-spun fibers were almost amorphous. Immersion tests proved that fibers of block copolymers were relatively homogeneous with micro-phase separation between PLLA and PA4. The fibrous structures of copolymers were different from those of the fibers electrospun from blends, for which sheath-core structure induced by macro-phase separation between homopolymers of PLLA and PA4 was confirmed by TEM, EDS, and XPS.

Magnetic solid acid catalysts SO 4 2− /Zr(OH) 4 –Fe 3 O 4 were prepared using magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles , ZrOCl 2 ·8H 2 O, and sulfuric acid as starting materials in the calcination temperature range 110–650 °C. The properties of the magnetic solid acid, such as loaded SO 4 2− content, acid distribution, surface morphology, and porous structure, were characterized. In the aqueous asymmetric aldol reaction of various benzaldehydes with strong electron-withdrawing groups (R = NO 2 and CN), good to excellent catalytic performance (83%–100% yield, 86.0%–95.6% ee anti , and anti/syn = 88–96/12–4) was achieved. These nanomagnetic solid acids can be quantitatively recycled from the reaction mixture using an external magnet and reused five times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

A general and efficient method for the synthesis of 4-sulfenylated oxazoles is described. Trisubstituted oxazoles are obtained in good to excellent yields from β-keto sulfoxides and nitriles. The mechanistic study suggests that the reaction proceeds via the nucleophilic addition of nitriles to the in situ formed α-carbonyl cation followed by intramolecular cyclization.

Despite recent advances, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients remain refractory to therapy. Dysregulated overproduction of angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is thought to contribute to the disease development. ANGPTL4 was initially identified as a regulator of lipid metabolism, which is hydrolyzed to N-terminal and C-terminal (cANGPTL4) fragments in vivo . cANGPTL4 is involved in several non-lipid-related processes, including angiogenesis and inflammation. This study revealed that the level of ANGPTL4 was markedly elevated in the sera and synovial tissues from patients with RA versus controls. The administration of a neutralizing antibody against cANGPTL4 (anti-cANGPTL4 Ab) resulted in the inhibition of inflammatory processes and bone loss in animal models of collagen-induced arthritis and adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA). Transcriptomic and proteomic profiling of synovial tissues from an AIA model indicated that the anti-cANGPTL4 Ab inhibited fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS) immigration and inflammatory-induced osteoclastogenesis. Mechanistically, the anti-cANGPTL4 Ab has been shown to inhibit TNF-α-induced inflammatory cascades in RA-FLS through the sirtuin 1/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway. Moreover, the anti-cANGPTL4 Ab was found to block FLS invasion- and immigration-induced osteoclast activation. Collectively, these findings identify ANGPTL4 as a prospective biomarker for the diagnosis of RA, and targeting cANGPTL4 should represent a potential therapeutic strategy.

The occurrence of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (CNB) in the environment due to increased agricultural and economic activities worldwide has been a serious concern for various environmental agencies; hence the qualitative and quantitative determination of CNB is of great significance. In this study, we took into consideration the features of carbon nanohorns (CNHs), such as high surface area and electron transfer ability, and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), such as high host–guest recognition ability with a hydrophilic outer layer, to design a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for detecting CNB by preparing CNHs and β-CD nanohybrids through a simple ultrasonication process. The outcome of our study revealed that the CNHs/β-CD nanohybrid modified electrode is an excellent electrochemical sensor for CNB. Under the optimized conditions, the experimental results show a considerable linear response range, unsubstantial interference from familiar organic and inorganic compounds and a detection limit of 9.0 nM.

Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin-derived phenolic compounds plays a crucial role in the production of renewable biofuels. In this regard, a series of different Co@NC catalysts were prepared with ZIF-67 as a sacrificial template by modulating the catalyst pyrolysis temperature and used for the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of lignin-derived phenolic model compound 4-ethylphenol for the preparation of cyclohexanols/ cyclohexanes. The results showed that the low-temperature pyrolysis will retain a large number of CoO x compounds, which led to a high dispersion of Co. For Co@NC catalysts, the uniformly dispersed Co component facilitated the adsorption and transfer of hydrogen, and the exposed surface of the carrier promoted the adsorption of reactants. The pyrolysis temperature also played a crucial role in the differences in catalyst crystal surface, specific surface area, acid strength distribution and oxygen vacancies. Co@NC catalyst prepared at 600 °C has a stronger hydrogen absorption capacity, the largest specific surface area and a higher number of oxygen vacancies. Therefore, the Co@NC-600 catalyst showed the best HDO activity. Under the mild conditions (220 °C, 2.5 h and 3 MPa H 2 ), the conversion of 4-ethylphenol was close to 100 %, and the selectivities of 4-ethylcyclohexanol and ethylcyclohexane were 62.7 % and 10.8 %, respectively.

In this work, magnetic CuFe2O4/Ag nanoparticles activated by porous covalent organic frameworks (COF) was fabricated to evaluate the heterogenous reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The core-shell CuFe2O4/Ag@COF was successfully prepared by polydopamine reduction of silver ions on CuFe2O4nanoparticles, followed by COF layer condensation. By integrating the intrinsic characteristics of the magnetic CuFe2O4/Ag core and COF layer, the obtained nanocomposite exhibited features of high specific surface area (464.21 m2g−1), ordered mesoporous structure, strong environment stability, as well as fast magnetic response. Accordingly, the CuFe2O4/Ag@COF catalyst showed good affinity towards 4-NP via π-π stacking interactions and possessed enhanced catalytic activity compared with CuFe2O4/Ag and CuFe2O4@COF. The pseudo-first-order rate constant of CuFe2O4/Ag@COF (0.77 min−1) is 3 and 5 times higher than CuFe2O4/Ag and CuFe2O4@COF, respectively. The characteristics of bi-catalytic CuFe2O4/Ag and the porous COF shell of CuFe2O4/Ag@COF made a contribution to improve the activity of 4-NP reduction. The present work demonstrated a facile strategy to fabricate COF-activated nano-catalysts with enhanced performance in the fields of nitrophenolic wastewater treatment.Keywords:magnetic covalent organic frameworks;nanocomposite;core-shell;p-nitrophenol;reduction

In this study, we report a cross-linker-based poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) for the sensitive detection of 4-nonylphenol (4-NP). PIL was poly(1,4-butanediyl-3,3′-bis-l-vinylimidazolium dibromide) (poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)). Poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) was prepared via one-step free-radical polymerization. The poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analyzer and scanning electron microscope. The poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) was then drop-cast onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to obtain poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE. In comparison with a bare GCE, poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE exhibited higher peak current responses for [Fe(CN)6]3−/4−, lower charge transfer resistance, and larger effective surface area. While comparing the peak current responses, we found the peak current response for 4-NP using poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE to be 3.6 times higher than a traditional cross-linker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) based poly(EGDMA) modified GCE. The peak current of poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) sensor was linear to 4-NP concentration from 0.05 to 5 μM. The detection limit of 4-NP was obtained as 0.01 μM (S/N = 3). The new PIL based electrochemical sensor also exhibited excellent selectivity, stability, and reusability. Furthermore, the poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE demonstrated good 4-NP detection in environmental water samples.Keywords:poly(ionic liquid);cross-linker;electrochemical detection;4-nonylphenol

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) holds promise for tumor ablation, but the clinical translation of photosensitizers, such as chlorin e6 (Ce6), is limited by poor aqueous solubility, low bioavailability, and insufficient tumor selectivity. To address these limitations, we constructed a nanobody–photosensitizer conjugate (NPC) by covalently linking Ce6 to a variable heavy-chain domain targeting Nectin-4, a clinically relevant tumor biomarker. Cell-based assays demonstrated that NPC exhibited markedly enhanced aqueous solubility, efficient cellular uptake, and strong Nectin-4-dependent binding compared with free Ce6. Upon light activation, NPC generated abundant reactive oxygen species (ROS), triggered lysosomal disruption, and induced apoptosis and immunogenic cell death. In xenograft mouse models, NPC displayed prolonged circulation, rapid and selective tumor-specific accumulation, and potent PDT to inhibit tumor growth, whereas free Ce6 displayed weak tumor retention and limited therapeutic benefit. Importantly, NPC treatment caused no measurable systemic toxicity or body weight loss during repeated administration. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that nanobody conjugation can overcome key pharmacological limitations of conventional photosensitizers by improving solubility, tumor targeting, and therapeutic index. NPC, thus, represents a promising next-generation PDT agent with potential for tumor-selective and clinically translatable phototherapy.

Potassium vanadium phosphate (K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 ) has emerged as one of the most promising cathode candidates for potassium-ion batteries because of exceptionally stable structural framework, yet suffers from intrinsic poor electronic conductivity characteristic of polyanionic compounds. Herein, a strategic Mg 2+ doping approach was adopted to prepare Mg-doped K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 /C (K 3+x V 3-x Mg x (PO 4 ) 4 /C, x = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3) composites, where larger Mg 2+ (0.72 Å) substitution for V 3+ (0.64 Å) effectively widens K + diffusion pathways. Optimal doping of Mg 2+ significantly elevates K + diffusion, rate capability, and cyclability beyond undoped K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 /C. The optimal K 3.2 V 2.8 Mg 0.2 (PO 4 ) 4 /C (Mg0.2-KVP/C) demonstrates comprehensive performance enhancements over pristine K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 /C, exhibiting 16.5 % higher initial discharge capacity (67.0 vs. 57.5 mAh g −1 ) at 1C with significantly improved cycling stability (85.8 % vs. 65.5 % capacity retention after 150 cycles). Notably, Mg0.2-KVP/C maintains 63.8 % larger capacity at 5C rate (53.4 vs. 32.6 mAh g −1 ) while achieving capacity retention of 75.2 % after 1000 cycles-representing a 50 % improvement in long-term cycle stability compared to the undoped K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 /C. The significant improvement in electrochemical performance of K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 /C upon Mg doping suggests that strategic ionic doping is an effective strategy for improving potassium storage performance of K 3 V 3 (PO 4 ) 4 /C and other polyanionic compounds for potassium-ion batteries.

Acid-activated sepiolite nanofibers (ASep) were organically modified with (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) to produce the amino-functionalized nanofibers (NH 2 -ASep). Due to the amino groups, highly dispersed silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were assembled on the surface of NH 2 -ASep by a simple chemical reduction approach, and the AgNPs were smaller than those directly deposited onto ASep surface. The as-synthesized Ag/NH 2 -ASep nanofiber catalysts exhibited an excellent catalytic activity in the reduction process of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol with full conversion within 150 s in the presence of NaBH 4 as the reductant . The results indicated that Ag/NH 2 -ASep nanofiber catalysts exhibited excellent catalytic activities because the highly dispersed of small-sized AgNPs were exposed on the surface of highly dispersed nanofibers with amino functional groups, allowing effective contact with the reactants and catalysis of the reaction. Moreover, the Ag/NH 2 -ASep nanofiber catalysts are stable and easy to use for the catalytic reaction due to their one-dimensional nanofiber structure with functional amino groups.
