Most of the antitumor chemotherapeutic drugs execute the therapeutic performance upon eliciting tumor cell apoptosis, which may cause chemoresistance of tumors. Design of novel drugs to eradicate apoptosis-resistant tumors via non-apoptotic cell death pathways is promising for improving the long-term chemotherapeutic efficacy. Herein, a Fe(III)-Shikonin metal-polyphenol-coordinated supramolecular nanomedicine for combined therapy of tumor via ferroptosis and necroptosis is designed. The construction of the nanomedicine based on the coordinated self-assembly between Fe 3+ and Shikonin not only overcomes the shortcomings of Shikonin including its low bioavailability and high toxicity toward normal tissues, but also integrates the theranostics functions of Fe ions. Under the exposure of the high concentration of glutathione (GSH) in tumor cells, the as-prepared nanomedicine will disassemble into Fe 2+ and Shikonin, followed by stimulating the tumor cell death through ferroptosis and necroptosis. In addition, benefiting from the stealth effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and the targeting ability of cyclo(Arg-Gly-Asp- d -Phe-Lys) (cRGD) to α v β 3 -integrin, NH 2 -PEG-cRGD-modified nanomedicine exhibits a GSH-responsive therapy toward 4T1 tumor in vivo and self-enhanced longitudinal relaxation (T 1 )-weighted imaging property. Since the self-assembly of natural Shikonin and human body-necessary Fe element is facile and feasible, the work may provide a promising supramolecular nanomedicine for next-generation chemotherapeutic applications.

A kind of layered Li 2 MSiO 4 material, Fe saponite with Na + pillaring (Na + -FSAP) was developed as a low-cost and environment-friendly lithium-ion storage material. The Na + -FSAP follows the insertion/deinsertion working mechanism accompanied by valence change of Fe from Fe 1.86+ to Fe 2.71+ (average value) after stabilization, and displays a specific capacity of 125 mAh g −1 at 50 mA g −1 with retention ratio of 80.8% after 75 cycles. The Na + -pillaring effect and abundant structural water in the gallery urge Li + migrate rapidly, resulting in a large Li + diffusion coefficient within a range of 10 −6.5 –10 −7.5 cm 2 s −1 . Thus, the Na + -FSAP provides a model material to design electrode materials with rapid lithium-ion migration and has great potential to take place of polyanionic-type Li 2 MSiO 4 (M = Mn, Fe, Co) cathode materials.

To remedy the widespread chromium (Cr) pollution in the environment, this study mainly used the ultrasonic-assisted co-precipitation and precipitation methods to prepare FeS-modified Fe-Al-layered double hydroxide (FeS/LDH) composite material. The experimental results showed that FeS/LDH has higher removal efficiency of Cr in aqueous solution and stronger anti-interference ability than unmodified LDH. Under the same reaction conditions, the removal efficiency of total Cr(Cr(T)) using LDH was 34.85%, and the removal efficiency of Cr(VI) was 46.76%. For FeS/LDH, the removal efficiency of Cr(T) and Cr(VI) reached 99.57% and 100%, respectively. The restoration of Cr(T) and Cr(VI) by FeS/LDH satisfied the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(T) and Cr(VI) achieved 102.9 mg/g and 147.7 mg/g. The efficient removal of Cr by FeS/LDH was mainly based on the triple synergistic effect of anion exchange between Cr(VI) and interlayer anions, redox of Cr(VI) with Fe2+and S2−, and co-precipitation of Fe3+and Cr3+.Keywords:chromium;FeS/LDH;double reduction;anti-interference;co-precipitation

Generally, using transition metal oxides as catalysts is the typical method for ammonia-selective catalytic reduction (NH 3 -SCR) under the medium temperature zone (150–400 °C). The controllable structure and uniformly distributed active sites of (Fe&Mn)AlOx-based catalysts via a facilely operative and green prepared method were employed for high NO catalyzed efficiency and selectivity . Among them, the Mn 1.2 Al 0.8 O x sample exhibited excellent low-temperature activity, and Fe 1.2 Al 0.8 O x exhibited excellent N 2 selectivity, which could be ascribed to the unique surface feature (more redox sites on Mn 1.2 Al 0.8 O x and more acid sites on Fe 1.2 Al 0.8 O x ). This creative work has directly demonstrated the importance of coordination between the adsorption of species and electron transportation that emerged on active sites. Meanwhile, the reaction process has been clearly presented in in-situ DRIFTS, declaring the synergetic mechanism (Eley-Rideal mechanism and Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism) in the systems. The Eley-Rideal mechanism could be the dominant one due to its rapid reaction rate. The predictable insights are beneficial for profoundly understanding the dual-sites synergetic interaction for controllable conversion rate and high selectivity in the medium temperature SCR process.

A lot of nanomaterials are using T1-T2dual mode magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agents (CAs), but multilayer nanowire (NW) with iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) as T1-T2dual modal CAs has not been reported yet. Herein, we synthesized a Fe/Mn multilayer NW with an adjustable Fe layer, as T1-T2dual-mode CAs. The relaxation performance of Fe/Mn multilayer NW was studied at 1.5 T. Results show that, when the length of the Fe layer is about 10 nm and the Mn is about 5 nm, the r1value (21.8 mM−1s−1) and r2value (74.8 mM−1s−1) of the Fe/Mn multilayer NW are higher than that of Mn NW (3.7 mM−1s−1) and Fe NW (59.3 mM−1s−1), respectively. We predict that our Fe/Mn multilayer NW could be used as T1-T2dual mode MRI CAs in the near future.Keywords:dual modal;MRI;CAs;nanowire;relaxation

The development of nonprecious metal-based electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a central task in renewable electrochemical energy conversion and storage technologies. Iron-nitrogen doped carbon-based (Fe−N/C) materials are promising alternatives to Pt-based ORR electrocatalysts. Owing to large specific surface area and outstanding electrical conductivity, carbon black is an inborn support for electrocatalysts. Unfortunately, the direct incorporation of Fe−N x moieties onto the surface of carbon black has not been realized to date. Herein, Fe−N x moieties are directly incorporated onto the surface of carbon black through surface modification and the following Fe and N co-doping. The obtained Fe and N co-doped carbon back (Fe−N/CB) catalyst has very large specific surface area and abundant accessible Fe−N x moieties. As a result, Fe−N/CB electrocatalyst exhibits a more positive half-wave potential (0.86 V) than Pt/C. The Fe−N/CB catalyst also displays better stability and methanol resistance than Pt/C. The Zn-air battery with Fe−N/CB as cathodic catalyst shows a maximum power density of 68 mW cm −2 and a specific capacity of 676 mAh g Zn -1 . Our finding provides a convenient and low-cost approach to fabricating efficient M−N/C-based catalysts and will be helpful to the development of renewable electrochemical energy conversion and storage technologies.

The activation of persulfate by ferrous iron (Fe(II)) is of great interest to the environmental remediation community, but the reduction of ferric iron (Fe(III)) to Fe(II) is slow and the accumulation of iron sludge resulted from the precipitation of Fe(III) is a great concern. Here, molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) was studied as a co-catalyst to improve the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by Fe(III) for sulfadiazine (SDZ) degradation and different characterization technologies were used to reveal the reactive species. The results showed that a strong synergy existed between MoS 2 and Fe(III); approximately 94.3% of the SDZ was removed by MoS 2 -Fe(III)-PMS after reaction for 30 min, while only 8.5% and 56.4% of the SDZ was removed by Fe(III)-PMS and MoS 2 -PMS, respectively. Both hydroxyl radicals and sulfate radicals were generated and the latter was the primary species. In addition to the radicals, singlet oxygen was found to be generated and contributed to the degradation of SDZ. The chemical probe reaction with methyl phenyl sulfoxide showed that the generation of high-valent iron-oxo species was not obvious by MoS 2 -Fe(III)-PMS under both acidic and neutral conditions. MoS 2 had good stability. No noticeable deactivation was observed during the 1st to 5th run and no obvious oxidation of surface Mo(IV) occurred. Based on the characterization of catalyst and oxidizing species, a mechanism for the activation of PMS by MoS 2 -Fe(III) was proposed. The results from this study are expected to clarify the reactive species and deepen the understanding of MoS 2 -promoted persulfate activation by Fe(II)/Fe(III).

A self-correcting fluorescent assay of tyrosinase (TYR) was developed by utilization of Fe-MIL-88B-NH 2 as a peroxidase-like nanozyme and a capture probe. Fe-MIL-88B-NH 2 nanozyme was selected as an electron donor, and the oxidization product (dopamine- o -quinone) acts as an energy acceptor. First, TYR catalyzes the oxidation of tyramine hydrochloride to dopamine and then to dopamine- o -quinone. Second, Fe-MIL-88B-NH 2 with intrinsic peroxidase-like activity decomposes H 2 O 2 to produce ·OH radicals, which further accelerate the oxidation of dopamine to dopamine- o -quinone. Excessive H 2 O 2 and ·OH radicals reduce the interferences from ascorbic acid at the same time providing a self-correcting ability. Dopamine- o -quinone reacts with -NH 2 groups on the ligand of Fe-MIL-88B-NH 2 through Michael reaction which results in fluorescence quenching. Under 365-nm excitation, the fluorescence emission intensity at 452 nm gradually decreased with increasing TYR concentration varying from 0 to 10 U mL −1 . The linear range is from 1 to 5 U mL −1 and the detection limit is 0.05679 U mL −1 . This self-correcting fluorescent assay of tyrosinase exhibits good sensitivity and selectivity which is also successfully applied for tyrosinase inhibitor detection. Graphical abstract

Heterogeneous Fenton-like catalytic oxidation is a promising method for organic pollutants removal. However, the catalytic activity is restricted by the redox cycles of active sites. In this study, Fe was doped into ilmenite cobalt titanate to prepare Fe-doped CoTiO 3 catalysts for antibiotic tetracycline (TC) degradation. Experiments and theoretical calculations illustrated that doping Fe in CoTiO 3 increased the electron density of Co atoms of active sites, enhancing the redox cycles during peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation, and facilitating the generation of radicals for degrading pollutants. After doping Fe, over 99% of TC (20 mg/L) can be degraded in 40 min, and the reaction rate increased 5 folds compared with the pristine CoTiO 3 . The inherent crystal stability of ilmenite guarantees the reusability of catalysts and limited cobalt ions leaching (≤0.22 mg/L). Besides, the impacts of PMS concentration, catalyst dosage, initial pH, coexisting ions, and reaction temperature on TC removal were systematically investigated, and the possible degradation pathway was proposed. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra indicated that sulfate radicals and singlet oxygen participated in TC degradation. This work provides new clues and strategies to construct highly efficient catalysts for heterogeneous catalytic oxidation.

This paper mainly introduces the Ph−Fe/RDX(HMX) composite microspheres prepared by ultrasonic spray drying. Their morphology was observed by SEM and found that the composite microspheres were spherical. Also, the composite microspheres exhibited good dispersion. The results of the granularity data show that the D 50 data of Ph−Fe/RDX and Ph−Fe/HMX were 580.78 nm and 496.52 nm, respectively. The DSC data showed that the catalytic effect of the composite microspheres was significantly better than that of the mixed powder. The DSC data showed that the decomposition peak temperature of the Ph−Fe/RDX(HMX) composite microsphere was 229.6 °C (279.6) lower than the 235.6 °C (284.3) of the mixed powder. The DSC data demonstrated that the catalytic performance of the composite microspheres was significantly better than that of the mixed powder. Therefore, the ultrasonic spray drying method has great potential for preparing energetic composite microspheres.

Integrating magnetic resonance (MR) and photoacoustic (PA) contrast agents into porous nanomaterials is a favorable way for screening of potential theranostic nanomedicines. Hollow carbon nanospheres (HCSs) dotted with GdPO4 and γ-Fe2O3 (Gd–Fe) nanoparticles are therefore prepared and studied in this work. The resultant Gd–Fe/HCSs possess a size of ∼100 nm with a cavity of ∼80 nm and a shell thickness of ∼10 nm, where the magnetic Gd–Fe nanoparticles are dotted. Owing to the synergistic effects, the Gd–Fe/HCSs give 2.5 times enhanced PA signals as compared with HCSs as well as the inherited MR imaging properties from Gd–Fe nanoparticles. In vivo MR and PA imaging of the liver in mice are consequently evaluated and validated. Furthermore, taking the tunable particle size, hollow cavity, shell thickness, and dotted amounts of nanoparticles into consideration, our studies here provide a useful structural model for the synergistic integration of MR and PA imaging in HCSs.

Transition metal phosphates (TMPs) are considered as promising anode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their high theoretical capacity (up to 1000 mAh g −1 ) and low cost. However, the poor electrochemical reaction kinetics and large volume expansion of TMPs are not conducive to practical applications in SIBs. In view of this, a kind of self-supported iron nickel phosphide (Fe-Ni-P) composite nanosheet arrays are obtained by reasonable hydrothermal reaction and phosphidation process. The nanosheet arrays construction can significantly release the mechanical strain and promote electrochemical reaction kinetics. Furthermore, the volume expansion can be largely alleviated by the synergistic effect of Fe 2 P and Ni 2 P. Benefiting from the unique design, the robust Fe-Ni-P arrays manifest remarkable Na + storage capability. The Fe-Ni-P nanosheet arrays exhibit a large discharge capacity of 300.9 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g −1 . And there is a reversible capacity of 201.7 mAh g −1 can be maintained without obvious capacity loss after 200 cycles at 0.5 A g −1 in SIBs.
