Article Abstract

The use of 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Me(4)Phen) as a ligand improves the Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl iodides and bromides with primary and secondary aliphatic, benzylic, allylic, and propargylic alcohols. Most importantly, by employing this catalyst system, the need to use an excessive quantity of the alcohol coupling partner is alleviated. The relatively mild conditions, short reaction times, and moderately low catalyst loading allow for a wide array of functional groups to be tolerated on both the electrophilic and nucleophilic coupling partners.

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in conventional zinc-air batteries (ZABs) involves a complex multielectron transfer process, leading to slow reaction kinetics, high charging voltage, and low energy efficiency. To address these limitations, a zinc-ethanol/air battery (ZEAB) system that strategically replaces the OER with the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) possessing a lower thermodynamic potential has been proposed. Herein, a bimetallic catalyst CuCo-embedded nitrogen-doped carbon (CuCo-20%-1), derived from a Cu/Co/Cd co-coordinated metal-organic precursor, is synthesized and exhibits an excellent performance for both EOR and ORR.

Background: In the United States, cancer is more prevalent in racial and ethnic minority groups and in rural-dwelling and low-income people. Compared with White people of non-Hispanic descent, Black and African American people have higher cancer mortality and Hispanic people are more likely to be diagnosed with infection-related cancers. In addition, people who live in persistent poverty areas are more vulnerable to cancer mortality.

Effective degradation and detoxification of the highly toxic organophosphate pesticide methyl parathion (MP) are important for pollution treatment and sustainable development. Enzymatic hydrolysis of MP by organophosphate hydrolase (OPH) is an effective way. However, hydrolytic product 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) remains environmentally hazardous.

ConspectusMolecular photochemistry, by harnessing the excited states of organic molecules, provides a platform fundamentally distinct from thermochemistry for generating reactive open-shell or spin-active species under mild conditions. Among its diverse applications, the resurgence of the Minisci-type reaction, a transformation historically reliant on thermally initiated radical conditions, has been fueled by modern photochemical strategies with improved efficiency and selectivity. Consequently, the photochemical Minisci-type reaction ranks among the most enabling methods for C()-H functionalizations of heteroarenes, which are of particular significance in medicinal chemistry for the rapid diversification of bioactive scaffolds.

3D printing, as a versatile additive manufacturing technique, offers high design flexibility, rapid prototyping, minimal material waste, and the capability to fabricate complex, customized geometries. These attributes make it particularly well-suited for low-temperature hydrogen electrochemical conversion devices-specifically, proton exchange membrane fuel cells, proton exchange membrane electrolyzer cells, anion exchange membrane electrolyzer cells, and alkaline electrolyzers-which demand finely structured components such as catalyst layers, gas diffusion layers, electrodes, porous transport layers, and bipolar plates. This review provides a focused and critical summary of the current progress in applying 3D printing technologies to these key components.
