Using low catalyst loadings while maintaining precise polymer property control is a critical challenge in the O-ATRP field. Herein, we report a novel O-ATRP system utilizing 1-bromopyrene (Py-Br) as a photoredox catalyst, enabling controlled polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) at an ultra-low loading of 10 ppm. When combined with ethyl α -bromophenylacetate (EBPA) as an initiator, this system produces polymers with a molecular weight distribution of 1.48 and an initiation efficiency of 66.7%. Mechanistic studies, including UV–Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and time-resolved fluorescence measurements, elucidate the photophysical and photochemical properties of Py-Br in O-ATRP. Kinetic analyses reveal first-order polymerization kinetics, while the linear increase of molecular weight with monomer conversion and low dispersity values indicate good control over the polymerization. The living nature of the system is further confirmed through successful chain extension experiments. This Py-Br-catalyzed O-ATRP system explores the feasibility of conducting polymerization at lower catalyst concentrations, offering insights into approaches for reducing catalyst usage in polymer synthesis. Graphical Photoinduced metal-free ATRP of MMA using ppm-level Py-Br as the organic photocatalyst.

The widespread use and subsequent accumulation of florfenicol (FFC), a common antibiotic, through the food chain poses significant risks to aquatic ecosystems and human health, necessitating effective strategies for its removal from water bodies. To solve the challenge, herein, we developed a novel aluminum-based metal–organic framework CAU-1, engineered for the efficient adsorption of FFC. CAU-1 contains the plentiful –NH 2 and μ-OH groups with the positively charged on the surface. In the adsorption process, CAU-1 perform hydrogen bonding interactions with FFC’s functional groups (−F, –OH, −Cl, –NH–, and −SO 2 –). Furthermore, the positively charged surface of CAU-1 enhances FFC adsorption via electrostatic attraction together. FFC adsorption equilibrium on CAU-1 is attained within 180 min with a monolayer adsorption capacity of 386 mg/g at 303 K, surpassing most of the reported adsorbents. The exothermic FFC adsorption process on CAU-1 remains largely unaffected by coexisting ions. Additionally, CAU-1 can be efficiently regenerated using a mixed solution of 0.1 M HCl and ethanol–water as an eluent. This work highlights CAU-1’s potential as an effective adsorbent for FFC removal, emphasizing the importance of tuning or designing surface functional groups on adsorbents to boost their adsorption capabilities.

Sulfonation of 1-tetradecene with liquid-phase sulfur trioxide generates simultaneously the alkene sulfonic acid and alkene sulfonate. The kinetics study is contributed to a deeper understanding of the sulfonation reaction and better controlling the process. The continuous microfluidic system was established to determine the kinetic parameters of 1-tetradecene sulfonation. A comprehensive kinetic model was developed, and the kinetic parameters were obtained. The activation energy is 14.7 ± 0.8 kJ mol −1 , with a pre-exponential factor of 118.4 ± 1.4. The reaction order for 1-tetradecene is second-order, and for sulfur trioxide, the reaction order is 0.3. By discretizing the reactor into microelements and conducting mass balance on each differential element method, integrating the obtained reaction kinetics model, calculating the required reaction time, and comparing it with experimental data within a reasonable range of error, the correctness of the derived reaction kinetics model has been verified.

The accumulation of glyphosate during its application in agriculture and its toxicity seriously threaten ecosystems and human health. Currently, glyphosate residual contamination is mainly accomplished through bioremediation techniques based on enhanced microbial degradation activity. However, there are drawbacks, such as poor environmental adaptability of strains and low degradation efficiency. Therefore, in this study, an efficient glyphosate-degrading strain, Pseudomonas alcaligenes Z1–1, was isolated from herbicide-contaminated environments and was capable of completely degrading glyphosate at a concentration of 200 mg/L within 7 days. Kinetics analysis showed that glyphosate degradation was concentration-dependent, with a maximum tolerant concentration of 800 mg/L. Mass spectrometric analysis indicated that AminoMethylPhosphonic acid (AMPA) was the predominant intermediate produced in the degradation pathway of glyphosate, revealing that glyphosate destruction began with breaking the C-N bond. Whole genome sequencing identified the key genes potentially involved in glyphosate degradation, including the thiO , glpA , aroA , soxB , and argA genes. Furthermore, in contrast to the majority of the metabolic pathways previously reported for glyphosate degradation via glyphosate oxidoreductase , the breaking of the C-N bond was primarily catalyzed by glycine oxidase . Overall, this research provides novel insights into the mechanisms of glyphosate degradation, offering valuable degradation enzyme resources for future applications.

HKSUT-1 is often used as an adsorbent because of its excellent adsorption properties. In this study, Ag + was impregnated into the HKSUT-1 precursor solution using the impregnation method, with sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ) serving as the reducing agent. This was done to examine the removal efficiency of NR dye. The Ag-HKSUT-1 composites were prepared by varying the additions of AgNO 3 and NaBH 4 . The morphology and structure of the Ag-HKSUT-1 composites were characterized by TG, FT-IR, BET and TEM. The adsorption performance of AH1 for neutral red dye in wastewater was investigated. The adsorption process was described by the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption capacity of AH1 for NR dye at 298 K was calculated to be 64.59 mg/g, indicating that Ag-HKUST-1 effectively adsorbed NR dye. The adsorption process is driven by a chemisorption mechanism, where intermolecular forces between Ag-HKUST-1 and NR, electrostatic interactions, and π-π conjugation between benzene rings play key roles. The results enhance our understanding of the surface interactions between Ag-HKUST-1 and NR dyes and broaden the application of HKUST-1 as an adsorbent for pollutant removal in water.

We synthesized the energetic molecular perovskite DAI-1 (C 48 H 112 I 24 N 16 Na 8 O 96 ) and investigated its behavior under high pressure using high-pressure Raman spectroscopy. DAI-1 exhibits an ABX 3 cubic perovskite structure, with significant changes in its Raman spectrum occurring between 4.3 and 7.1 GPa, signaling a phase transition. Releasing the pressure after applying it up to 12.3 GPa showed that the Raman spectrum did not return to its original state, indicating an irreversible phase transition. Furthermore, we conducted simulations to analyze the trend of changes in the crystal structure under pressure. This study serves as a reference for in-depth research on the high-pressure behavior of DAI-1 and other related substances.

As the key to open the Pandora’s box of gas efficient capture, water-based porous liquids have doubled the popular attention. Nevertheless, the synthesis of water-based porous liquids is a significant challenge due to the inherent limitation in the wettability of nanoporous hosts. In this work, Silicalite-1 was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis, based on which a water-based porous liquid of S-1-PL was successfully prepared, and CH 4 capture in the porous liquid via adsorption-absorption synergistic approach was evaluated. It was demonstrated that S-1-PL exhibited excellent stability and flowability, with a pore opening ratio up to 90 %. CH 4 capture capacity in S-1-PL with the solid content of 15 wt% was 0.57 mol/L, which was 2.6 times that in pure water system, demonstrating excellent CH 4 physisorption performance. When the adsorption-absorption synergistic approach was employed, CH 4 capture capacity increases to 1.88 mol/L with an increase by 229.8 %. In addition, a hydrate nano-promoter of −SO 3 - @PSNS was prepared to enhance hydration efficiency, which resulted in a notable enhancement in the hydration conversion rate, and it increases from 12.54 % to 61.99 % in the system of S-1-PL 15wt% , giving rise to a significant increase in CH 4 capture to 6.22 mol/L, which is 12.67 times that in the system of −SO 3 - @PSNS solution. These findings provide clear evidence for the first time on the exceptional adaptability of water-based porous liquid for the capture of CH 4 by adsorption-absorption synergistic approach, offering a new strategy for the emission reduction of CH 4 .

Upgrading lignin-derived phenols to high-value arenes has garnered significant attention, while the major challenge lies in the selective cleavage of Caromatics–OH via hydroxyl hydrogenolysis. We systematically investigated the morphology-dependent properties of Ni@S-1 catalysts, encompassing their physicochemical characteristics, Ni nanoparticle properties, and the interaction between NiOx species and silicalite-1 (S-1) crystals as well as their performance in hydroxyl hydrogenolysis of vapor-phase m-cresol conversion. Both Ni@S-1 exhibited comparable Ni loading and crystal sizes but distinct morphologies, which originated from the complex intergrowth structures leading to variations in the dispersion and the location of Ni nanoparticles and significant differences in the shape-selective catalysis based on the confinement effect of S-1 channels for the vertical adsorption of m-cresol. Ellipsoidal Ni@S-1-Ell achieved m-cresol conversion of 96.9% (model reaction) along with hydrogenolysis products’ yield of 94.0%, which was 6.97 times in conversion and 22.38 times in yield of hydrogenolysis products than those of cylindrical Ni@S-1-Cyl under identical reaction conditions at 300 °C, 2.5 atm, and a feed rate of 6.0 g[m-cresol]/g[catalyst]·h.

High-energy-density materials (HEDMs) based on five-membered nitrogen heterocycles functionalized with dinitromethyl groups hold significant potential but face challenges in balancing energy and stability. While dinitromethyl derivatives of azoles and oxadiazoles exhibit high enthalpies of formation and detonation performance, their inherent acidity, mechanical sensitivities, and poor stability limit practical applications. Energetic salts have been widely explored to enhance stability, yet most reported salts suffer from reduced densities compared to their neutral analogs. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a novel meta-substituted dinitromethylpyrazole derivative, 4-dinitromethyl-1-nitropyrazole ( 5 ), and its ammonium ( 6a ), hydrazinium ( 6b ), and hydroxylammonium ( 6c ) salts. Remarkably, all three salts exhibit superior densities (1.81–1.89 g cm −3 ), surpassing that of neutral 5 (1.74 g cm −3 ), while maintaining enhanced thermal stabilities and reduced mechanical sensitivities. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction and theoretical calculations jointly reveal that the structural transformation from a twisted neutral molecule to a planar dinitromethyl anion, driven by deprotonation, induces a synergistic interplay of intermolecular forces. This transition fosters robust hydrogen-bond networks, intensified π-π stacking interactions, and elevated packing coefficients, while simultaneously enhancing aromaticity and conjugation effects. Concurrently, destabilizing O···O repulsions are significantly reduced. These combined structural and electronic modifications collectively contribute to superior density and thermochemical stability, overcoming the typical density loss observed in analogous systems. This work challenges the conventional limitations of ionic HEDMs and provides a strategic approach to designing high-density, low-sensitivity energetic salts through rational substitution and crystal engineering. The results highlight the critical role of molecular geometry and counterion selection in achieving balanced energetic performance, offering new avenues for advancing HEDM development.

Decapod Iridescent Virus 1 (DIV1) leads to high mortality rates in shrimp farming, significantly impacting the aquaculture industry economically. Currently, there are no effective treatments for controlling DIV1 infections, and management primarily relies on preventative measures. Rapid and precise diagnosis of DIV1 is crucial. In this study, we identified two DNA enzymes, MCP-1 and MCP-8, that can specifically recognize DIV1 via in vitro selection. The detection limit of MCP-1 was 6.89 copies/μL of DIV1. We developed a DNAzyme-based “turn off” biosensor for quick detection of DIV1, which is both highly specific and sensitive, by integrating SYBR Green I to enhance the signal. The detection limit of biosensor could reach 2.01 copies/μL of DIV1. Compared to conventional detection methods, this sensor delivers results in 5 min without the need for complex procedures, greatly streamlining the detection process.

Phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1) plays important roles in glycolysis, yet its forward reaction kinetics are unknown, and its role especially in regulating cancer cell glycolysis is unclear. Here, we developed an enzyme assay to measure the kinetic parameters of the PGK1-catalyzed forward reaction. The Km values for 1,3-bisphosphoglyceric acid (1,3-BPG, the forward reaction substrate) were 4.36 μm (yeast PGK1) and 6.86 μm (human PKG1). The Km values for 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PG, the reverse reaction substrate and a serine precursor) were 146 μm (yeast PGK1) and 186 μm (human PGK1). The Vmax of the forward reaction was about 3.5- and 5.8-fold higher than that of the reverse reaction for the human and yeast enzymes, respectively. Consistently, the intracellular steady-state concentrations of 3-PG were between 180 and 550 μm in cancer cells, providing a basis for glycolysis to shuttle 3-PG to the serine synthesis pathway. Using siRNA-mediated PGK1-specific knockdown in five cancer cell lines derived from different tissues, along with titration of PGK1 in a cell-free glycolysis system, we found that the perturbation of PGK1 had no effect or only marginal effects on the glucose consumption and lactate generation. The PGK1 knockdown increased the concentrations of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, dihydroxyacetone phosphate, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, and 1,3-BPG in nearly equal proportions, controlled by the kinetic and thermodynamic states of glycolysis. We conclude that perturbation of PGK1 in cancer cells insignificantly affects the conversion of glucose to lactate in glycolysis.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common type of primary adult brain tumor. Glioma stem cell (GSC) residence and temozolomide (TMZ) resistance in GBM both contribute to poor patient outcome. TRAF4 is a scaffold protein with E3 ubiquitin ligase activity that has recently been discovered to promote invasion and metastasis in several malignancies, but the effects and functions of TRAF4 in GBM remain to be determined. Here, we report that TRAF4 is preferentially overexpressed in GSCs and is required for stem-like properties as well as TMZ sensitivity in GBM cells. TRAF4 specifically interacted with the N-terminal tail of Caveolin-1 (CAV1), an important contributor to the tumorigenicity of GBM cells. TRAF4 regulated CAV1 stability by preventing ZNRF1-mediated ubiquitination and facilitating USP7-mediated deubiquitination independently of its E3 ubiquitin ligase catalytic activity. TRAF4-mediated stabilization of CAV1 activated protumorigenic AKT/ERK1/2 signaling, and disruption of this axis resulted in defects in stemness maintenance. In addition, expression of TRAF4 and CAV1 was positively correlated and predicted poor prognosis in human GBM samples. Screening of common nervous system drugs identified risperidone interaction with TRAF4, and risperidone treatment resulted in the dissociation of TRAF4 and CAV1. Importantly, pharmacologic inhibition of TRAF4 with risperidone potently inhibited self-renewal, abrogated tumorigenicity, and reversed TMZ resistance in GBM. Overall, TRAF4-mediated stabilization of CAV1 promotes stemness and TMZ resistance in GBM, providing a therapeutic strategy that could improve patient outcomes. Significance: The identification of a TRAF4/Caveolin-1 axis that plays a crucial role in malignant progression of glioblastoma provides new insights into the function of TRAF4 in ubiquitin signaling and suggests TRAF4 as a potential therapeutic target.
