Direct α-C(sp3)−H arylation of 4-aminopyrazolones involving arynes, enabled by dual phase-transfer catalysis and ultraviolet irradiation, has been developed. The dual phase-transfer catalytic pathway powered by triaminocyclopropenium salts gave rise to the generation of structurally diverse 4-amino-4-arylpyrazolones in moderate to excellent yields, while the photochemical protocol furnished the products with moderate yields. Notably, these products are tentatively proposed as candidates for carbamate pesticides based on the preliminary structural analysis. The synthetic potentials of the methods were shown by gram-scale reactions, and the possibilities for greater structural diversity of the product were highlighted by derivatizations. The results of control experiments indicated that the timely capture of the transient arynes by the activated 4-aminopyrazolone nucleophiles is the key to the success of the reactions.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG, C3 and C4 paraffins) from syngas have attracted much attention recently due to the growing demand of non-oil resource as well as its environmentally friendly features, but the catalytic reaction process controlled by thermodynamics and CO conversion rate is low with many side reactions. Here we report a catalyst with core shell structure for LPG synthesis from syngas. Zeolite as shell was synthesized by hydrothermal method firstly and then coated on Cu/ZnO core with Ludox (CZ@Z), the Cu/ZnO core was prepared by co-precipitation method. The unique core shell structure had efficient synergistic effect. The reaction equilibrium favored forward reaction because methanol as an intermediate was directly transformed to dimethyl ether. The zeolite type in the core shell structure catalyst had great effects on the activity and selectivity. The catalysts have been characterized by XRD, NH 3 -TPD and SEM. The activities were determined after in situ H 2 reduction. CZ@H-β catalyst showed a more effective catalytic activity compared with the traditional hybrid catalyst. The excellent catalytic performance was attributed to the combined contribution of both unique core shell structure and proper zeolite type. At these reaction conditions, temperature of 350 °C, pressure of 3.0 MPa and flow rate of 40 ml min −1 , CO conversion and hydrocarbons selectivity achieved 61.8% and 64.2%, respectively. LPG selectivity in hydrocarbons was 70.2%.

Nonaqueous amine-based absorbents offer advantages over aqueous monoethanolamine (MEA), but they inevitably evolve into water-lean systems when treating humid flue gas, presenting a challenge for long-term performance stability. In this work, a formulated water-lean absorbent, 50B-40BE-10 W, was evaluated for CO 2 capture from simulated humid flue gas in an upgraded lab-scale continuous plant over 720 h, benchmarking it against 30 mass% MEA. Key operational parameters and water balance behavior were systematically investigated to inform rational process design. Under a framework of absorbent-tailored regeneration strategy coupled with dynamic water-balance control, the 50B-40BE-10 W solvent achieved a remarkably low desorber heat duty, about 50–65% reduction compared to MEA. Critically, a dynamic water-management strategy was proposed and demonstrated, involving controlled discharge of desorber overhead condensate following a membrane dehydration process. This approach successfully maintained stable water content of ∼10 wt% in the solvent over a 100-h period, effectively addressing the challenge of water accumulation in water-lean systems. Furthermore, NMR analysis of the absorbent after ∼1700 h of operation, even under high‑oxygen exposure, indicated no catastrophic degradation. The compelling performance and stability demonstrated at the bench-scale pave a solid pathway for further development of this advanced water-lean capture technology.

The abundant hydrophilic
hydroxyl groups and porous structure make
wood highly susceptible to moisture absorption from the environment,
leading to issues such as deformation and decay. This work aims to
in situ construct a multifunctional organosilicon/organic hybrid resin
coating on the wood surface derived from the click reaction of polymethylhydrosiloxane
(PMHS), using PMHS, divinylbenzene (DVB), and the Karstedt catalyst.
At room temperature, through the Si–H addition click reaction
between PMHS and DVB, a cross-linked and rigid hybrid resin coating
with a hardness of 94.00 HA is fabricated on the wood surface. Simultaneously,
a dehydrogenation click reaction takes place between the Si–H
groups of PMHS and the –OH groups on the wood surface, anchoring
the hybrid resin coating to the wood via covalent bonds. These endow
the hybrid resin coating with excellent mechanical stability. The
low surface energy of organosilicon resin in the hybrid coating affords
the modified wood with good waterproofness by decreasing the 24 h
water absorption rate from 78.6% to 13.9%. Most importantly, the coating
remains hydrophobic even after being immersed in an alkaline solution
(pH = 13) for 24 h. SEM images of the coating after alkaline corrosion
indicate that while the Si–O–Si skeleton of the organosilicon
component is partially dissolved due to its susceptibility to alkali,
the hydrophobic organic resin skeleton remains intact, imparting good
alkali resistance to the hybrid resin coating. In summary, the organosilicon/organic
hybrid coating constructed via the click reaction of PMHS on the wood
surface effectively addresses the issue of poor alkali resistance
commonly associated with traditional organosilicon coatings.

Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites possess outstanding specific stiffness and strength but typically exhibit low intrinsic damping, which limits vibration attenuation in lightweight dynamic structures. Herein, a hybrid toughening strategy combining carboxyl-terminated butadiene nitrile rubber (CTBN) and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is developed to enhance the damping of CFRP laminates while preserving cure feasibility and thermomechanical stability. An E51/DICY/accelerator epoxy system (100:6.5:1.2, mass ratio) is used as the baseline matrix. Differential scanning calorimetry shows that both CTBN and h-BN shift the cure peak temperature upward (Tp: 160.6 → 170.3 °C) and reduce the reaction enthalpy (ΔH:386.5 → 255.1 J/g), indicating dilution/transport effects and altered cure kinetics. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) reveals that CTBN exhibits an optimum damping enhancement at 25 phr (tan δ_max= 0.300), whereas h-BN provides a stronger monotonic increase up to 25 phr (tan δ_max= 0.437). Notably, the CTBN/h-BN hybrid (25/25 phr) delivers a hightan δ_maxof 0.468 together with the broadest effective damping window (ΔT_half= 28.6 °C), exceeding 85% of the linear additivity criterion proposed herein. When the materials are transferred into CFRP laminates, free-vibration tests (using the logarithmic decrement method) demonstrate a clear structural damping improvement (ζ:0.021 → 0.035;δ:0.132 → 0.221; t1/2: 0.48 → 0.27 s). Overall, the results suggest that the damping enhancement arises from a combination of EPBN-mediated ductile energy dissipation and h-BN-related interfacial/interlayer frictional losses, which can be jointly tuned to balance processability, thermal response, and damping performance in CFRPs.

Zinc-air batteries, widely regarded as a frontrunner in sustainable energy storage solutions, struggle with performance constraints stemming from the insufficient activity and durability of bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts. This research presents a composite catalyst (FeCo@Fe-N-CNTs) synthesized through a straightforward in situ growth method, effectively integrating FeCo alloys with Fe single atoms incorporated in nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs). Theoretical and experimental studies show that FeNx atoms weaken the interaction between active iron sites and reactants, enhancing the reaction energy optimization. The optimization improves the characteristics of the intermediates’ adsorption and desorption, enabling the catalyst to exhibit remarkable bifunctional activity under alkaline conditions, achieving an overall overpotential as low as 0.67 V, with overpotential of merely 290 mV for the oxygen evolution process. The performance boost stems from a 38% larger electrochemical surface area (ECSA) combined with an 18% lower charge transfer resistance (Rct), pointing to gains in both active site numbers and intrinsic catalytic efficiency. We also employed X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and in situ Raman measurements to probe the Fe–Nx bonding configuration and track how the surface changes under the working conditions. Notably, zinc-air batteries using dual-function catalyst reached a peak energy density of 894 mAh g–1, maintained stable cycling for over 3000 h, and exhibited consistent charge–discharge capabilities in flexible quasi-solid-state devices (with voltage fluctuation remaining under 5% during bending strain), highlighting its immense potential for practical use in creating compact, high-capacity rechargeable batteries that can be worn or carried around. It is like giving us the keys to unlock a world where we can seamlessly incorporate portable energy solutions for renewable energy projects.

H-Beta supported InO x -IrO x dual-function active sites with abundant acid sites are designed. • Synergy of InO x -IrO x regulates surface redox properties and InO⁺ species generation. • InO⁺ species and acid sites facilitates NO conversion while IrO x sites promote CH₄ activation. • IrIn/H-Beta demonstrates superior CH 4 -SCR performance. In the field of selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides with methane (CH 4 -SCR), achieving a balance between high CH 4 -SCR selectivity and high CH 4 activation ability remains challenging. Herein, InO x -IrO x dual-function active sites anchored on the H-Beta zeolite with abundant acid sites are rationally designed. The InO x -IrO x bimetallic oxide structures and the confinement effect of the zeolite framework effectively suppress the migration and sintering of IrO x species, while the electron transfer between In and Ir facilitates the formation of Ir-O-In bond and the generation of InO⁺ species. The In sites, together with the acid sites of H-Beta, assist the conversion of NO into NO 3 - and NO⁺ species, while the CH 4 is predominantly dissociated on Ir sites to form In-CH 3 species via the Ir-O-In bond. These In-CH 3 species react with nitrate species on adjacent InO⁺ sites to form reactive intermediates such as CH 3 NO 2 , which further interact with NO⁺ to produce N 2 , CO 2 , and H 2 O. Owing to the dual functionality of InO x -IrO x active sites, the as-designed IrIn/H-Beta simultaneously achieves superior performance of 81% NO x conversion and 100% CH 4 conversion at 500°C under a gas velocity of 120,000 mL g -1 h -1 . Such proposed dual-function bimetallic catalyst design strategy demonstrates potential for developing a catalyst with high activity and high selectivity in CH 4 -SCR reactions. The as-proposed dual-function bimetallic IrIn/H-Beta catalyst demonstrates high activity and high selectivity in CH 4 -SCR reactions.

h-BN is a two-dimensional ceramic material with a lamellar structure , known for its typical orientation characteristics on mechanical and thermal properties. By optimizing the size and arrangement of h-BN grains in the matrix, the anisotropic characteristics of h-BN ceramics can be fully utilized to obtain ceramic materials with high thermal conductivity or high strength . In order to study the effect of grain orientation distribution on the mechanical and thermal properties of materials, the index of orientation distribution (IOP) was used to quantitatively characterize the orientation degree of h-BN grains and analyzed the effect of h-BN grain size on material properties . The results show when the initial h-BN size is 13.50 μm, the ceramic has the highest orientation degree/-507, and the mechanical and thermal properties show obvious anisotropy. While the related properties of BN-YAG ceramics varies significantly with the decrease of initial h-BN grain size.

Gene therapy holds tremendous potential for the treatment of incurable brain diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD), stroke, glioma, and Parkinson's disease. The main challenge is the lack of effective gene delivery systems traversing the blood–brain barrier (BBB), due to the complex microvessels present in the brain which restrict substances from the circulating blood passing through. Recently, increasing efforts have been made to develop promising gene carriers for brain-related disease therapies. One such development is the self-assembled heavy chain ferritin (HFn) nanoparticles (NPs). HFn NPs have a unique hollow spherical structure that can encapsulate nucleic acid drugs (NADs) and specifically bind to cancer cells and BBB endothelial cells (BBB ECs) via interactions with the transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) overexpressed on their surfaces, which increases uptake through the BBB. However, the gene-loading capacity of HFn is restricted by its limited interior volume and negatively charged inner surface; therefore, these drawbacks have prompted the demand for strategies to remould the structure of HFn. In this work, we analyzed the three-dimensional (3D) structure of HFn using Chimera software (v 1.14) and developed a class of internally cationic HFn variants (HFn+ NPs) through arginine mutation on the lumenal surface of HFn. These HFn+ NPs presented powerful electrostatic forces in their cavities, and exhibited higher gene encapsulation efficacy than naive HFn. The top-performing candidate, HFn2, effectively delivered siRNA to glioma cells after traversing the BBB and achieved the highest silencing efficacy among HFn+ NPs. Overall, our findings demonstrate that HFn+ NPs obtained by this genetic engineering method provide critical insights into the future development of nucleic acid delivery carriers with BBB-crossing ability.

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT), a noninvasive therapy that relies on sonosensitizers and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), has attracted considerable attention in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. However, being surrounded by dense stromal barriers, pancreatic cancer exhibits high interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) and hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME), resulting in poor SDT efficacy. Collagenase-loaded hollow TiO2 (Col-H-TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) capable of degrading stromal barriers and producing sufficient ROS production were synthesized in this study. After administration of NPs in the patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model, ultrasonic irradiation-released collagenase degraded tumor matrix fibers, decreased intratumoral IFP, and enhanced the penetration and retention of NPs within tumor tissues. Moreover, the NPs accumulated within the tumor not only generate abundant ROS under the influence of ultrasound irradiation but also improve intratumoral ultrasound signal, providing ultrasonic imaging-guided highly effective SDT for pancreatic cancer. In conclusion, this research improves the SDT technique and enhances the visualization of pancreatic cancer by remodeling the TME and is a promising strategy for further clinical applications.

In this study, a novel nanocomposite (FeS@h-BN) that FeS nanoparticles anchored onto h-BN nanosheets was synthesized for chromium (Cr(VI)) removal in aqueous solutions and characterized by SEM, TEM , XRD , FTIR, Zeta, and XPS . The effect of removal parameters including initial pH, temperature, FeS@h-BN dosage, the initial concentration of Cr(VI) and contact time were investigated. Experiment results revealed that h-BN as a stabilizer for FeS had good stability and effectively reduced FeS agglomeration. The remarkable performance of removing total Cr in aqueous solution was obtained by effectively converting Cr(VI) to Cr(III) on FeS and simultaneously adsorbing Cr(III) on h-BN. The adsorption capacity of FeS@h-BN for Cr(VI) was extremely sensitive to the pH and the optimum adsorption was 399.72 mg/g at pH of 1.0. In addition, the efficiency of removing Cr(VI) by FeS@h-BN increased with the increase of adsorbent dosage and Cr(VI) concentration, and the efficiency reached 100% at an adsorbent dosage of 0.30 g/L. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model can fully explain the experimental rate data. The mechanism of FeS@h-BN to remove Cr(VI) was adsorption and chemical reduction, of which chemical adsorption was the main one. These results revealed that h-BN as a stabilizer can improve the FeS stability and reactivity for the rapid removal of Cr(VI) contamination in water solution.

There are increasing concerns of environmental-pollution and energy issues. Herein, an exfoliation-restacking process was firstly employed to synthesize H + -restacked H + Ti 2 NbO 7 − nanosheets (HTNS), and then heated with melamine at 510 °C to obtain direct Z-scheme layered N-doped H + Ti 2 NbO 7 − /g-C 3 N 4 (TCN) heterojunctions with an increased specific surface area. Two-dimensional (2D) g-C 3 N 4 material was in-situ formed on the surface of HTNS to achieve a layered heterostructure between two components, which could maximize interfacial contact area and minimize interfacial distance for the efficient charge carrier separation. Simultaneously, the surface of HTNS was doped by nitrogen atoms to form visible-light-responsive N-doped HTNS. All TCN x ( x = 1, 2 and 3) composites exhibited the enhanced photocatalytic activity for both hydrogen (H 2 ) production and rhodamine B (RhB) degradation. As an optimal sample, the resulted TCN2 composite exhibited the best photocatalytic efficiency for H 2 production and RhB degradation. The enhanced photocatalytic activity was assigned to the combined effects of layered heterojunction, N-doping and large specific surface area. According to trapping experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra, the holes (h + ), superoxide (·O 2 − ) and hydroxyl (·OH) radicals were responsible for photocatalytic RhB degradation and especially the ·O 2 − was the key active specie. A possible charge transfer pathway was analyzed in detail. This work will hopefully provide some guidance on designing Z-scheme layered heterojunction photocatalyst systems with highly photocatalytic efficiency. Graphical Abstract Direct Z-scheme layered N-doped H + Ti 2 NbO 7 − /g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction photocatalysts were constructed by a three-step exfoliation-restacking-calcination process, showing the highly photocatalytic efficiency for H 2 production and RhB degradation under visible light due to the synergistic effects of layered heterojunction, N-doping and large specific surface area.
