Development of novel photocatalysts for hydrogen peroxide (HO) production from water and oxygen is gathering great attention, but still suffers from inefficient photogenerated charge mobility. Reticular chemistry in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) provides a promising platform to enhance the charge-transfer kinetics by assembling a donor-acceptor (D-A) system. Here, we designed and synthesized a series of D-A type MOFs (UiO-67-NB, UiO-67-PE/BB, and UiO-67-PE/NB) via regulating the interaction mode of donor and acceptor. As the first example of short and long-range combined D-A MOF, UiO-67-PE/NB exerted enhanced photogenerated electron transfer as well as suppressed their backward recombination, which facilitated the indirect two-step 2e ORR for visible-light driven photosynthesis of HO, with a remarkable production rate of 5141 μmol h g, superior to that of short-range UiO-67-NB (813 μmol h g) and long-range UiO-67-PE/BB (3361 μmol h g), and also exceeding most of MOF-based photocatalysts. This work puts forward new insights into systematic engineering of D-A MOFs at the molecular level for highly efficient HO photosynthesis.

Background: Of the mycotoxins, aflatoxin is the most significant. The detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is crucial for ensuring food safety, as this highly carcinogenic toxin readily contaminates crops such as grains and nuts, and timely detection can effectively prevent associated health risks. The selection of luminophores is of paramount importance in the detection of ECL (electrochemiluminescence).

Background: Bisulfite (HSO) plays crucial roles in food safety and physiological health. In the food industry, sulfur dioxide (SO) and its derivative bisulfite (HSO) are extensively employed as preservatives and bleaching agents. Nonetheless, overconsumption of bisulfite can present health hazards like asthma and potentially cancer.

Background: Sulfur dioxide (SO) is recognized as a major atmospheric pollutant and its excessive emissions can pose a great threat to the environment, flora and fauna, and human health. Long-term exposure to excessive SO can cause chronic poisoning, leading to neurological disorders and cardiovascular diseases. However, there are two sides to everything.

The photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) stands as a pivotal determinant in the therapeutic efficacy of photothermal nanoagents (PTNAs) within the context of photothermal therapy (PTT). The dearth of universal strategies to greatly enhance PCE has markedly curtailed the practical deployment of PTNAs. Now this problem is addressed by proposing a universal approach founded on molecular rotors and J-aggregates, "highly efficient molecular motor matrix", to greatly elevate the PCE of traditional PTNAs.

While fluorene-containing materials are widely used in organic optoelectronics as bright emitters and hole semiconductors, their diazafluorene analogues have been poorly explored, though their nitrogen atoms could result in electron transport and bring sensory abilities. Here, we report the synthesis, characterization, and detailed study of a series of 4,5-diazafluorene-derivatives with different donor/acceptor substituents and organic semiconductors based on these molecules. The crystal structures of all the materials were solved by X-ray diffraction, indicating the presence of extensive π-stacking and anisotropic charge-transfer pathways.
