Article Abstract
Exploring the facile synthesis of Pb-free energetic metal-organic frameworks (EMOFs) with both high nitrogen content and high thermostability is a significant but challenging task in the field of MOF-based green energetic materials. Herein, a new EMOF, [Zn(atz)(N)] (atz = 5-amino-1-tetrazole), has been synthesized by simply using a commercial ligand (atz) under mild conditions. A probable mechanism for the formation of azide groups in the product has been proposed, in which the fraction of C-N and N-N bonds in atz is the key. The X-ray single crystal structure analysis reveals the EMOF's unique graphene-like and azide-group-bridged 2D bilayer structure with gourd-type micropores. More impressively, the EMOF shows a high nitrogen content of 59.33% and superior thermostability of up to 362 °C, both among the best of existing EMOFs. In addition, detonation property calculations and sensitivity tests have been carried out, which demonstrate its high-energy and low-sensitivity features. Moreover, [Zn(atz)(N)] shows the ability to accelerate the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) and hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20), making it a potential combustion promoter for green and insensitive propellants.

Over the past few years, alkali and alkaline earth metals have emerged as alternative catalysts to transition metal organometallics to catalyze the hydroboration of unsaturated compounds. A highly selective and cost-effective lithium-catalyzed method for the synthesis of an organoborane has been established based on the addition of a B-H bond to an unsaturated bond (polarized or unpolarized) using pinacolborane (HBPin). In the present work, the neosilyllithium-catalyzed hydroboration of nitriles, aldehydes, and esters has been investigated using high-level DLPNO-CCSD(T) calculations to unravel the mechanistic pathways and substrate-dependent reactivity.

ConspectusHydrogen spillover, the simultaneous diffusion of protons and electrons, has recently emerged as a key phenomenon in the functionalization of hydrogen in cutting-edge research fields. Its occurrence has been found to significantly impact hydrogen-related fields of science, such as catalysis, reduction, and hydrogen storage. Since the discovery of hydrogen spillover more than half a century ago, although many scientists have reported its unique properties and have attempted to utilize them, no practical advanced applications have been established yet.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are environmentally persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic chemicals that contaminate global drinking water resources. Their ubiquity and potential impact on human health motivate large-scale remediation. Conventional materials used to remove PFASs during drinking water production are functionally inefficient or energetically expensive, motivating the discovery of new materials and technologies.

We demonstrate a direct synthesis of coumarin-3 derivatives from aryl alkynoates and hydrazines in visible light, photocatalyzed by rose bengal. The method is facile, transition-metal-free, versatile, and furnishes various 3-functionalized coumarins such as ester, acyl, aryl, carbamoyl, and sulfonyl in moderate to good yields, with the respective hydrazine reagent serving as the radical precursor. Two anti-TB molecules, and , were synthesized using this method.

The development of high-performance, cost-effective non-noble metal catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is critical to advancing sustainable hydrogen production via water electrolysis. Herein, we report a facile and mild strategy for synthesizing amorphous bimetallic organic framework materials (NiFe-MOFs) using pyridine-modified threonine (l-PyThr) as an organic ligand. The optimized NiFe-PyThr-4:1 catalyst exhibits remarkable OER activity, requiring low overpotentials of only 162 and 222 mV to achieve current densities of 10 and 100 mA cm, respectively, along with a small Tafel slope of 34.
