Ionic strength-responsive microcapsules with auto-fluorescence were fabricated by incubation of poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH)-doped CaCO 3 particles in triethylamine (Et 3 N), followed by core removal using HCl. Based on the combination of hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonding , PAH and Et 3 N formed a complex with a molar ratio of 3:1 (repeating unit of PAH: Et 3 N). The as-prepared capsules showed extraordinary stability against 1 M HCl, 1 M NaOH and 6 M urea solutions, and could swell or shrink reversibly in response to the ionic strength. Furthermore, the capsules possessed auto-fluorescence, allowing easily tracking of capsules during applications. Such interaction may be expanded to formation of stimuli-responsive multilayer films and other colloidal particles.

It is well known that low-silica SAPO-34, with an extra porosity (meso- and/or macropores) system, affords excellent catalytic performance in the methanol-to-olefins (MTO) reaction, while the direct synthesis of low-silica SAPO-34 with a hierarchical structure is difficult to achieve, principally because the crystal impurities are usually formed under a low silica content in a gel precursor. Herein, low-silica SAPO-34 nanocrystals were successfully fabricated for the first time by constructing an isomorphous core–shell structure in an epitaxial growth manner. In which, low-silica, ultrasmall nanosquare-shaped SAPO-34 crystals with the same growth orientation along the (100) crystal plane compactly grow on the monocrystal SAPO-34 cores. Crucially, the external surface acid properties of the core SAPO-34 with the Si-rich outer layer are effectively modified by the low-silica SAPO-34 shell. Furthermore, the growth process and Si-substitution mechanism of the shell zeolite were comprehensively investigated. It was found that with the prolonged crystallization time, more and more coordinated Si(4Al) and Si(3Al) structures via two substitution mechanisms (SM2 and SM3) are generated in the nanocrystalline SAPO-34 shell, which endow moderate acidity of the core–shell SAPO-34. Compared to the uncoated SAPO-34, the core–shell SAPO-34 performs a longer lifespan and a higher average selectivity of light olefins (ethylene plus propylene) when applied to the MTO reaction, which is attributed to the positive effects of the luxuriant interstitial pores offering a fast diffusion channel and the moderate acid density depressing the hydrogen transfer reaction of light olefins. This work provides new insights into the fabrication of low-silica SAPO-34 nanocrystals, which are based on the rational design of the isomorphous core–shell zeolite.

The electrical and magnetic properties of strongly correlated manganese oxides originate from and depend on the coupling of spin, orbital, lattice and other degrees of freedom, and can also be controlled by external stimuli (such as a magnetic field). Here, the films have been prepared using spin-coating method to determine the role of Jahn–Teller (JT) distortion and double exchange (DE) interaction in electronic transport and magnetoresistance (MR) by magnetic field in La 0 . 7 − x Sm x Ca 0 . 3 MnO 3 /SrTiO 3 (001). The Sm-induced lattice distortion suppresses the metal-insulator transition temperature and increases the films’ resistivity, which is due to the weakening of the DE interaction between Mn 3 + –O 2 − –Mn 4 + ions and the enhancement of the single electron bandwidth. Moreover, the MR can be increased to 96.5% and the AMR can be increased to 66.6% under 1 T magnetic field. These findings indicate the importance of JT distortion in multi-field control of hole-doped perovskite manganites.

Direct ethanol fuel cells have garnered considerable attention owing to their minimal pollution, high energy density and diverse fuel sources. However, the slow anodic ethanol oxidation reaction has limited its large-scale application. In this work, the green self-reduction method of Co 2 (CO) 8 as precursor and reducing agent is used to design PdCo bimetallene for ethanol oxidation reaction. The ultra-thin porous nanosheet structure of PdCo bimetallene leads to its abundant defects, facilitating increased active sites and enhanced electrical conductivity. The findings demonstrate substantial enhancements in both the activity and stability of the catalyst. The mass activity of PdCo bimetallene reached 1.58 A mg −1 , marking a 2.8-fold increase compared to Pd black. Moreover, the catalyst maintained no less than 98% of the initial current over five consecutive 4000 s chronoamperometric tests, highlighting its remarkable stability. This work provides a green self-reduction synthesis strategy for the preparation of defect-rich bimetallene for ethanol electrocatalytic applications.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy is a powerful technology in trace analysis. However, the wide applications of SERS in practice are limited by the expensive substrate materials and the complicated preparation processes. Here we report a simple and economical galvanic-replacement-assisted synthesis route to prepare Ag nanoparticles on Cu(0) foil (nanoAg@Cu), which can be directly used as SERS substrate. The fabrication process is fast (ca. 10 min) and easily scaled up to centimeters or even larger. In addition, the morphology of the nanoAg@Cu (with Ag particles size from 30 nm to 160 nm) can be adjusted by various additives (e.g., amino-containing ligands). Finally, we show that the as-prepared nanoAg@Cu can be used for SERS characterization of two-dimensional polymers, and ca. 298 times relative enhancement of Raman intensity is achieved. This work offers a simple and economical strategy for the scalable fabrication of silver-based SERS substrate in thin film analysis.

Group transfer polymerization (GTP) plays a crucial role in polymerizing (methyl) acrylate. The utilization of cheap and easily synthesized thiourea anion (TUA) combined with pinacolborane (HBpin) undergoes controlled GTPs of methyl methacrylate (MMA), methacrylate (MA), and α-methylenebutyrolactone (MBL) at ambient temperature. The mechanistic study reveals that the TUA′-1 having -NEt 2 moiety works out as a cocatalyst to assist HBpin undergoes the 1,4-hydroboration reaction with α, β-unsaturated acrylates to in situ generate a boron enolate (boryl ketene acetal [BKA]). Different from typical GTP, in which silyl ketene acetal (SKA) is used as an initiator, this work shows that BKA could act as an initiator with the assistance of the cocatalyst TUA′-1 to generate the polymer. The chain end groups of the obtained polymer are characterized by MALDI-TOF-MS, indicating one of the chain ends features a hydride from the HBpin and another chain end has a linear or back-biting cyclic structure. Moreover, the polymerization process is strongly supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The application of BKA expands the research area of GTP reactions. The tunable and structural properties of TUA/hydroboranes significantly broaden the types of initiators in the GTP and pave a new methodology to achieve functional polymers. Graphical

Innovation of 137 Cs + and 90 Sr 2+ ion exchangers is achieved through heteroatom-bridged integration of polyoxovanadate clusters, whose soft Lewis basic nature and large size promote the selective capture of cesium/strontium radionuclides. The radiolytically stable Na 6 P 4 V 10 O 34 ·19H 2 O ( VPO-1 ) features an interlinkage of {NaV 10 O 26 } clusters and phosphorus bridges, forming nanoscale voids with hydration-lubricated sodium ions. This structure endows VPO-1 with remarkable exchange kinetics ( k 2 Cs = 3.774 g mg −1 min −1 ; k 2 Sr = 1.376 g mg −1 min −1 ), equilibrium removal ( R > 99.3% within 5–10 min), and maximum capacities ( q m Cs = 300.32 mg g −1 ; q m Sr = 113.00 mg g −1 ). The exchange mechanism is illuminated through single-crystal XRD by revealing cluster-vacancy pathways and ionic-radius-dependent adsorption sites. VPO-1 exhibits stability across pH = 3–12, with exceptional K d Cs and K d Sr values above 10 5 mL g −1 , and high selectivity for Cs + and Sr 2+ over various competing ions. These properties enable excellent column filtration performance ( R = 99%–100%) for mixed Cs + and Sr 2+ during a 3000 mL test. Deep cleaning of these ions is also possible via suction filtration using an ultra-thin VPO-1 /PTFE membrane, with high exchange activity ( R = 98.8%–99.9%) retained after simple regeneration with 2 m NaCl, offering significant potential for nuclear wastewater treatment applications.

Gushudan (GSD) was a traditional Chinese prescription with the remarkable effect of kidney-tonifying and bone-strengthening. However, the potential prevention mechanisms of the GSD on kidney-yang-deficiency-syndrome (KYDS) and its regulation on gut microbe metabolism still need to be further systematically investigated. This study established untargeted urinary metabolomics based on RP/HILIC-UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS and combined with multivariate statistical analysis to discover differential metabolites and key metabolic pathways. And the gut microbe metabolism pathway-targeted metabolomic based on HILIC-UHPLC-MS/MS was developed and validated to simultaneously determine 15 gut microbe-mediated metabolites in urine samples from the control group (CON), KYDS model group (MOD), GSD-treatment group (GSD) and positive group (POS). The results showed that a total of 36 differential metabolites were discovered in untargeted metabolomics. These differential metabolites included proline, cytosine, butyric acid and nicotinic acid, which were primarily involved in the gut microbe metabolism, amino acid metabolism, energy metabolism and nucleotide metabolism. And GSD played a role in preventing KYDS by regulating these metabolic pathways. The targeted metabolomics found that the levels of 10 gut microbe-mediated metabolites had significant differences in different groups. Among them, compared with the CON group, the levels of lysine, tryptophan, phenylacetylglycine and hippuric acid were increased in the MOD group, while the levels of threonine, leucine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, succinic acid and butyric acid were decreased, which verified the disorders of gut microbe metabolism in the KYDS rats and GSD had a significant regulatory effect on this disorder. As well as by comparing analysis, it was found that the experimental results were consistent with previous metabolomics and microbiomics of fecal samples. Therefore, this integrated strategy of untargeted and targeted metabolomics not only elucidated the potential prevention mechanism of GSD on KYDS, but also provided a scientific basis for GSD preventing KYDS via the “gut-kidney” axis.

Bromination reactions involving bromine monomers tend to be polybrominated, resulting in poor product selectivity and subsequent separation difficulties. This proposal outlines a multistep cascade for continuous flow synthesis involving photobromination and debromination. The process comprises five units: bromine generation, photobromination, quenching, water/oil separation, and photodebromination. A full-process continuous and efficient synthesis of the trifluorostrolibin intermediate (E)-Methyl-2-(2-broMoMethylphenyl)-2-MethoxyiMinoacetate (MBPA) was achieved. This process converts the byproduct (E)-Methyl-2-(2-dibroMoMethylphenyl)-2-MethoxyiMinoacetate into the target product MBPA. At a total residence time of 12.9 min, the conversion of (E)-Methy-2-(methoxyimino)-2-(o-toly) acetate reached 99.0%, and the total yield of MBPA reached 94.2%. Machine learning and quantum chemical calculations enhance the comprehension of photodebromination mechanisms. Simultaneously, through comprehensive simulations involving sensitivity and scenario analyses, the optimization of photon utilization emerged as a pivotal factor for improving the overall applicability of the production process. This method of synthesizing halogenated products is anticipated to play a crucial role in pharmaceuticals or pesticides.

With the increasing global aging population, osteoarthritis (OA) has emerged as a major public health concern. OA pathogenesis is characterized by a complex interplay among inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen species, and extracellular matrix components, leading to cartilage degradation. Astragaloside-IV (AS-IV), a natural antioxidant, has shown promise in alleviating OA symptoms but is limited by poor bioavailability and ineffective cartilage drug delivery. To address these challenges, we aimed to develop a drug delivery system using copper silicate nanoparticles modified with polyethylene glycol and loaded with AS-IV (referred to as CSP@AS-IV). This system uses mesoporous silica nanoparticles with a hybrid metal framework to enhance drug release and efficacy. CSP@AS-IV degrades in the acidic OA microenvironment, releasing copper ions (Cu 2+ ) and AS-IV, which synergistically exert antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and chondroprotective effects. Both in vitro and in vivo rat model experiments demonstrated that CSP@AS-IV significantly alleviated joint inflammation, downregulated inflammatory marker expression, and promoted cartilage repair. These findings underscore that CSP@AS-IV offers considerable clinical potential for enhancing OA treatment outcomes.

Catalytic oxidative desulfurization (ODS) using titanium silicate catalysts emerges as an efficient technique for the complete removal of organosulfur compounds from automotive fuels. However, the precise control of highly accessible and stable framework Ti active sites remains highly challenging. Here we reveal for the first time by the density functional theory calculations that framework hexa-coordinated Ti (TiO6) species of mesoporous titanium silicates are the most active sites for ODS and lead to a lower-energy pathway of ODS. A novel method to achieve highly accessible and homogeneously distributed framework TiO6 active single sites at the mesoporous surface has been developed. Such surface framework TiO6 species exhibit an exceptional ODS performance. A removal of 920 ppm of benzothiophene (BT) is achieved at 60°C in 60 min, which is 1.67 times that of the best catalyst reported so far. For bulky molecules such as 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (DMDBT), it takes only 3 min to remove 500 ppm of DMDBT at 60°C with our catalyst, which is 5 times faster than that with the current best catalyst. Such catalyst can be easily up-scaled and could find its concrete industrial application in ODS of bulky organosulfur compounds with minimized energy consumption and high reaction efficiency.

A simple, rapid, and reliable method for detecting harmful gases is urgently required in environmental security fields. In this study, a highly effective cataluminescence sensor based on SiO 2 /MIL-53(Al) composites was developed to detect trace isobutylaldehyde. The sensor was designed using isobutylaldehyde to generate an interesting cataluminescence phenomenon in SiO 2 /MIL-53(Al). Under optimized conditions, a positive linear relationship was observed between the signal intensity of the cataluminescence and isobutylaldehyde concentration. The isobutylaldehyde concentration range of 1.55–310 ppm responded well to the sensing test, with an excellent correlation coefficient of 0.9996. The minimum detectable concentration signal-to-noise ratio ( S/N = 3) was found to be 0.49 ppm. In addition, the sensor was effectively utilized for analyzing trace isobutylaldehyde; the analysis resulted in recoveries ranging from 83.4% to 105%, with relative standard deviations ( RSDs ) of 4.8% to 9.4%. Furthermore, the mechanism of cataluminescence between SiO 2 /MIL-53(Al) and isobutylaldehyde was explored using GC–MS analysis and density functional theory. We expect that this cataluminescence methodology will provide an approach for the environmental monitoring of isobutylaldehyde.
