Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) exhibit similar physicochemical properties to the ionic liquids. They are inexpensive, renewable, nontoxic, and environmentally benign solvents and have gradually attracted attention in several fields, for example, biorefinery. Here choline chloride-based DESs have been used as solvents and catalysts for the preparation of deoxyfructosazine (DOF) through a self-condensation reaction of d-glucosamine (GlcNH2). The catalytic performances of a “green cocatalyst”, amino acids, and the reaction mechanism were also studied. The results displayed that choline chloride/urea was capable to convert GlcNH2 efficiently, with a 13.5% yield of DOF at low temperature and with a short reaction time (100 °C, 150 min). Among the screened amino acids, arginine showed the highest activity and gave the highest yield of DOF (30.1%) under the optimized reaction conditions. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies revealed a strong hydrogen bond interaction between GlcNH2 and arginine. Moreover, a detectable intermediate, namely dihydrofructosazine, in the condensation of GlcNH2 to DOF/fructosazine (FZ) was captured by in situ NMR technique.

We herein report the synthesis and structures of two salicylate-stabilized polyoxo-titanium clusters (PTCs) with and without fluorine, namely, H2[Ti13(μ3-O)7(μ2-O)4(Sal-F)9(OiPr)14] (PTC-95, H2Sal-F = 5-fluorosalicylic acid) and H2[Ti14(μ3-O)8(μ2-O)4(Sal)8(OiPr)18]·HOiPr (PTC-96, H2Sal = salicylic acid). Structural analyses indicated that PTC-95 is a fairly compact structure made up of a quadrangular prism with an appended linear Ti3 cluster and two additional Ti atoms. PTC-96 possesses an arch bridge-shaped structure linked by two Ti4(μ3-O)2 and two Ti3(μ3-O) clusters. Apart from the intrinsic structural features, their diverse photocurrent response properties and photocatalytic activities towards dye degradation were also demonstrated.

Exogenous xylose exhibited a significant temperature-dependent regulatory effect on the furans and pyrazines formation during the degradation of dual-glycated Amadori rearrangement product of lysine (Lys), N α ,N ε -di(1-deoxy- d -xylulos-1-yl)lysine ( N α ,N ε -di-Xul-Lys ARP). At 100 °C, xylose primarily enhanced the dehydration pathway of deoxypentosone. This significantly increased furans yield, while delaying lysine release by interacting with mono-glycated Lys-ARPs, thereby inhibiting the early formation of pyrazines. 120 °C accelerated the dehydration and retro-aldolization of deoxypentosone, markedly boosting furans formation and further promoting the substantial production of α -dicarbonyl compound with extra-added xylose. Additionally, xylose buffered the rapid pH decline, enhancing the α -aminoketones electrophilicity and facilitating pyrazines formation in N α ,N ε -di-Xul-Lys ARP. At 140 °C, xylose hindered furans formation but notably increased methylpyrazine levels during 30–60 min. Furthermore, increasing the xylose concentration to 60 mmol/L at 120 °C markedly enhanced glyoxal and methylglyoxal production, yielding the highest pyrazine concentration of 98.04 μg/L within 60 min.

Various excellent catalysts have been explored for the methanolysis of polycarbonate (PC), but it is still challenging to develop green and economical catalysts for solvent-free PC methanolysis to recover both bisphenol A (BPA) and dimethyl carbonate (DMC). Herein, green, efficient and solvent-free degradation of PC to BPA and DMC was achieved using urea as a cheap green catalyst. At 140 °C for 3 h, PC was completely degraded to BPA and DMC with yields of 93.4% and 74.7%, respectively. A possible catalytic degradation mechanism of PC was proposed by kinetic experiments and NMR, where urea, methanol and carbonate formed a six-membered ring in the reaction. It was found that the increase of urea concentration significantly reduced the activation energy, which was attributed to the fact that the increase of urea concentration made the six-membered ring easier to form and activated the carbonate bond. The degradation system can be reused directly up to 10 times and 100% degradation rate can be maintained. This work provides a simple, green and economical method for industrial PC recycling.

Graphene oxide (GO) was used as an efficient and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of N-substituted pyrrole using a Paal–Knorr condensation reaction between 2,5-hexanedione and aniline. The effects of reaction time, reaction temperature, solvent, catalyst loading and molar ratio of aniline to 2,5-hexanedione on the yield of 2,5-dimethyl-N-phenyl pyrrole were investigated. In situ NMR was used to follow the Paal–Knorr reaction at the molecular level. Results revealed that the oxygen-containing groups of GO, such as sulfonic acid and carboxyl groups, played a key role in this catalytic reaction. Polar protic solvents were favorable for the reaction. The catalytic activity increased with temperature without any side reaction. The GO could be easily recovered and showed remarkable reusability and excellent catalytic performance allowing it to be reused 5 times.

BACKGROUND The typical aroma compounds in methionine-glucose Maillard products often undergo further degradation and polymerization during storage and thermal processing, leading to flavor dispersion and aroma distortion. It is crucial to identify measures that enhance typical aroma substances in such flavor matrices. RESULTS The effect of oxygen on the flavor formation of methionine-glucose thermal reaction system was explored by determining typical flavor substance contents and flavor differences. Compared with the oxygen concentration in the air (21%), a high oxygen concentration (30% and 40%) effectively promoted the formation of typical flavor substances. Pyrazines increased by 44% and thioethers increased by 13%. The reaction process and the content of key substances were both measured to explain the involvement of oxygen. It was found that high oxygen concentration increased the reaction efficiency of glucose and methionine and promoted the formation of α -dicarbonyl compounds, including glyoxal, methylglyoxal and 3-deoxyglucosinone. Moreover, a glyoxal-methylglyoxal-methionine model system was established to verify the effect of oxygen intervention on the formation of pyrazines and thioethers generating from α -dicarbonyl compounds. It was confirmed that a high oxygen concentration promoted the consumption of glyoxal and methylglyoxal, which were more readily converted into pyrazines and thioethers without forming melanoidins. CONCLUSION A high concentration of oxygen promoted the formation of pyrazines and thioethers during the Maillard reaction of methionine and glucose, and effectively inhibited the occurrence of browning. The present study provides a new concept for the typical flavor enhancement of methionine-glucose Maillard reaction products. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Two-dimensional metal – organic frameworks (2D MOFs) hold great promise as electrochemically active materials. However, their application in MOF nanocomposite electrodes in solution engineering is limited by structural self-stacking and imperfect conductive pathways. In this study, we used meso -tetra(4-carboxyphenyl ) porphine (TCPP) with off-domain π-bonds to reconstitute Zn-TCPP (ZMOF) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) through an interfacial modulation strategy involving electrostatic coupling and hydrogen bonding, creating a conductive composite with a nanosheet structure. The negatively charged PSS and ZMOF formed a three-dimensional interconnected conductive network with excellent interfaces. The positively charged PEDOT, fine tuned with the lamellar structure, established strong π-π stacking interactions between the porphyrin and thiophene rings. ZMOF also induced changes in the PEDOT chain structure, weakening PSS entanglement and enhancing charge-transport properties. The specific capacitance of the prepared supercapacitor was as high as 967.8 F g −1 . Flexible supercapacitors produced on a large scale using dispensing printing technology exhibited an energy density of 1.85 μWh cm −2 and a power density of 7.08 μW cm −2 . This interfacial modulation strategy also exhibited excellent wearable properties, with 96 % capacitance retention at a 180° bending angle and stable cycling performance. This study presented a significant advancement in the functionalization of 2D materials, highlighting their potential for device-grade capacitive architectures.

The separation and purification of light hydrocarbons are performed by energy-intensive distillation processes. Microporous metal–organic framework based absorbents acting as alternative technology gains focus. Open metals sites (OMSs) enriched MOF-74 show great potential in light hydrocarbons but its separation selectivity is low and difficult to regenerate. To address this issue, we introduced N -donor ligands into open sites of Co-MOF-74 by post modification. Structure was determined by powder X-ray diffraction, element analysis, infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analyses. As-synthesized modified Co-MOF-74 display potential in C 2 H 4 /C 2 H 6 , C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 , C 3 H 8 /CH 4 and C 2 H 6 /CH 4 separation for N -donor ligands placeholder.

Economical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) bifunctional catalysts with high activity aimed at replacing precious metal catalysts for rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs) must be developed. In this study, a multiple hierarchical-structural material is developed using a facile dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma surface treatment, solvothermal reaction, and high-temperature carbonization strategy. This strategy allows for the construction of nanosheets using nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) material-encapsulated ternary CoNiFe alloy nanoparticles (NPs) on a network of NC nanotubes (NCNTs), denoted as CoNiFe–NC@p–NCNTs. Precisely, the presence of abundant CoNiFe alloy NPs and the formation of M–N–C active sites created by transition metals (cobalt, nickel, and iron) coupled with NC can provide superior OER/ORR bifunctional properties. Moreover, the prepared NC layers with a multilevel pore structure contribute to a larger specific surface area, exposing numerous active sites and enhancing the uniformity of electron and mass movement. The CoNiFe 0.08 –NC@p–NCNTs show remarkable dual functionality for electrochemical oxygen reactions (ORR half-wave potential of 0.811 V, limiting current density of 5.73 mA cm −2 measured with a rotating disk electrode at a rotation speed of 1600 rpm, and OER overpotential of 351 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ), which demonstrates similar ORR performance to 20 wt% Pt/C and better OER performance than the commercial RuO 2 . A liquid ZAB prepared using the proposed material has excellent bifunctionality with an open-circuit voltage of 1.450 V and long-term cycling stability of 230 h@10 mA cm −2 .

Host–guest charge transfer (HGCT) plays a key role in applications from solar energy conversion to photocatalysis. Herein, a HGCT system, a pillared Pt(II) metallacage with encapsulated coronene was synthesized and the ultrafast excited-state dynamics were investigated by combination of femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, nanosecond transient emission spectrocopy and quantum chemistry calculations. Two significant ultrafast dynamic processes were unveiled: (i) charge transfer from a singlet local excited (1LE) state associated with the coronene moiety to a 1HGCT state with τ = 9.5 ps; and (ii) triplet–triplet energy transfer from a high 3HGCT state to a 3LE state with τ = 139.5 ps. The resulting long-lived species, the lowest 3LE and 3HGCT states eventually decay to the ground state in microsecond time scales of 5.2 and 43.4 μs respectively. Moreover, a clear mechanism depicting the main excited-state decay pathways connecting the initial photoexcited transients with the resulting species was proposed.

As the second most widely consumed eggs, duck eggs are made into preserved eggs, salted duck eggs, and roasted duck eggs to extend their shelf-life. To investigate the differences in potent odorants (POs) between salted duck egg yolk (SDEY) and roasted duck egg yolk (RDEY), the volatiles in SDEY and RDEY were extracted through solvent extraction coupled with solvent-assisted flavor evaporation and were assayed with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry. A total of 45 volatiles were identified in two samples, 24 odor-active compounds (OACs) were screened, and more OACs were in RDEY. The flavor-dilution (FD) factors of OACs were obtained by aroma extract dilution analysis and ranged from 3 to 6561. Twenty-two OACs with FD factors ≥ 9 were quantitated, and the results indicated the concentrations of OACs in yolk increased greatly after salted duck eggs were roasted. Based on the concentrations and thresholds, odor activity values (OAVs) were determined; 17 odorants with OAVs ≥ 1 were determined as POs. Acetoin was the most PO in SDEY; there were more POs in RDEY, including 2-ethyl-3,6-dimethylpyrazine, acetoin, 2-acetyl-3-methylthiophene, dihydro-4-hydroxy-2(3H)-furanone, etc. The outcomes obtained have reference values for making better use of duck eggs in the food industry.
