A series of Co-Mn mixed oxide catalyst supported on a cordierite monolith was facilely synthesized by ultrasonic impregnation. Its catalytic performance was evaluated in the combustion of toluene, ethyl acetate and its mixture. It was observed that with incorporating Mn into CoO, the formation of solid solution with spinel structure could significantly improve the catalytic activity of pure phase CoO. And the monolithic CoMnO catalyst showed the best catalytic performance in the catalytic oxidation of toluene and ethyl acetate which could be completely oxidized at 220 and 180°C respectively under the reaction velocity (WHSV) about 45,000 mL/(g•hr) and pollutant concentration of 500 ppmV. The total conversion temperature of the VOCs mixture was at 230°C (500 ppmV toluene and 500 ppmV ethyl acetate) and determined by the temperature at which the most difficult molecule was oxidized. The excellent catalytic performance of monolithic CoMnO was attributed to the higher content of Mn, Co, surface adsorbed oxygen and better redox ability. The prepared catalyst showed the good mechanical stability, reaction stability, and good adaptability to different reaction conditions.

A series of Cu-based single-atom catalysts (SACs) with asymmetric coordination were designed to accelerate lithium-sulfur (Li-S) chemistry. The electronegativity contrast from the dopant induces a localized electronic asymmetry that amplifies Jahn-Teller distortion at the Cu center. This distortion profoundly modulates the Cu 3d electronic structure and its interaction with Li-S intermediates.

This review delivers a focused and critical evaluation of recent progress in the green synthesis of carbon quantum dots (CQDs), with particular attention to state-of-the-art approaches utilizing renewable biomass as precursors. The main objective is to systematically examine innovative, environmentally friendly methods and clarify their direct influence on the core properties and photocatalytic performance of CQDs. The novelty of this review stems from its comprehensive comparison of green synthetic pathways, revealing how specific processes determine key structural, optical, and electronic attributes of the resulting CQDs.

The rational design of non-precious metal catalysts as a replacement for Pd is of great importance for catalyzing various important chemical reactions. To realize this purpose, the palladium-like superatom NbN was doped into a defective graphene quantum dot (GQD) model with a double-vacancy site to design a novel single superatom catalyst, namely, NbN@GQD, based on density functional theory (DFT), and its catalytic activity for the Suzuki reaction was theoretically investigated. Our results reveal that this designed catalyst exhibits satisfactory activity with a small rate-limiting energy barrier of 25.

Aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) is a promising strategy for enhancing electrochemiluminescence (ECL) efficiency by minimizing energy loss of excited-state ECL emitters. However, rational design of high-efficiency AIECL emitters is hindered by limited mechanistic understanding and an unclear structure-performance relationship. To address this, four supramolecular coordination frameworks (SCFs) with varying π-bridge structures are synthesized using pyridine-functionalized tetraphenylethene (TPE) as the ligand and Pt(II) as the coordination center.
