文摘The recovery of gold from waste electronic and electric equipment(WEEE) has gained great attention with the increased number of WEEE,because it can largely alleviate the pressure on the environment and resources.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs) are ideal adsorbents for gold recovery owing to their large surface area,good stability,easily functionalized ability,periodic structures,and definitive nanopores.Herein,a cyano-functionalized COF(COF-CN) with high crystallinity was large-scale prepared under mild conditions for the recovery of gold.The introduction of cyano groups enable COF-CN to exhibit excellent gold recovery performance,which possesses fast adsorption kinetics,high cycling stability,and adsorption capacity up to 663.67 mg/g.Excitingly,COF-CN showed extremely high selectivity for gold ions,even in the presence of various competing cations and anions.The COF-CN maintained excellent selectivity and removal efficiency in gold recovery experiments from WEEE.The facile synthesis of COF-CN and its outstanding selectivity in actual samples make it an attractive opportunity for practical gold recovery.
文摘Under hydrothermal and solvothermal conditions,two novel cobalt-based complexes,{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dtb)]·3.2H_(2)O}n(HU23)and{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dib)]·3.5H2O·DMF}n(HU24),were successfully constructed by coordinatively assembling the semi-rigid multidentate ligand 5-(1-carboxyethoxy)isophthalic acid(H₃CIA)with the Nheterocyclic ligands 1,4-di(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzene(1,4-dtb)and 1,4-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene(1,4-dib),respectively,around Co^(2+)ions.Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that in both complexes HU23 and HU24,the CIA^(3-)anions adopt aκ^(7)-coordination mode,bridging six Co^(2+)ions via their five carboxylate oxygen atoms and one ether oxygen atom.This linkage forms tetranuclear[Co4(μ3-OH)2]^(6+)units.These Co-oxo cluster units were interconnected by CIA^(3-)anions to assemble into 2D kgd-type structures featuring a 3,6-connected topology.The 2D layers were further connected by 1,4-dtb and 1,4-dib,resulting in 3D pillar-layered frameworks for HU23 and HU24.Notably,despite the similar configurations of 1,4-dtb and 1,4-dib,differences in their coordination spatial orientations lead to topological divergence in the 3D frameworks of HU23 and HU24.Topological analysis indicates that the frameworks of HU23 and HU24 can be simplified into a 3,10-connected net(point symbol:(4^(10).6^(3).8^(2))(4^(3))_(2))and a 3,8-connected tfz-d net(point symbol:(4^(3))_(2)((4^(6).6^(18).8^(4)))),respectively.This structural differentiation confirms the precise regulatory role of ligands on the topology of metal-organic frameworks.Moreover,the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra confirmed that HU23 and HU24 have strong absorption capabilities for ultraviolet and visible light.According to the Kubelka-Munk method,their bandwidths were 2.15 and 2.08 eV,respectively,which are consistent with those of typical semiconductor materials.Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements(2-300 K)revealed significant antiferromagnetic coupling in both complexes,with their effective magnetic moments decreasing markedly as the temperature lowered.CCDC:2457554,HU23;2457553,HU24.

文摘Cellulose frameworks have emerged as promising materials for light management due to their exceptional light-scattering capabilities and sustainable nature.Conventional biomass-derived cellulose frameworks face a fundamental trade-off between haze and transparency,coupled with impractical thicknesses(≥1 mm).Inspired by squid’s skin-peeling mechanism,this work develops a peroxyformic acid(HCOOOH)-enabled precision peeling strategy to isolate intact 10-μm-thick bamboo green(BG)frameworks—100×thinner than wood-based counterparts while achieving an unprecedented optical performance(88%haze with 80%transparency).This performance surpasses delignified biomass(transparency<40%at 1 mm)and matches engineered cellulose composites,yet requires no energy-intensive nanofibrillation.The preserved native cellulose I crystalline structure(64.76%crystallinity)and wax-coated uniaxial fibril alignment(Hermans factor:0.23)contribute to high mechanical strength(903 MPa modulus)and broadband light scattering.As a light-management layer in polycrystalline silicon solar cells,the BG framework boosts photoelectric conversion efficiency by 0.41%absolute(18.74%→19.15%),outperforming synthetic anti-reflective coatings.The work establishes a scalable,waste-to-wealth route for optical-grade cellulose materials in next-generation optoelectronics.

文摘Two supramolecular organic frameworks(SOFs)have been constructed from the co-assembly of biimidazolium-derived octacationic components and cucurbit[8]uril in water.Dynamic light scattering and ^(1)H NMR experiments reveal that both SOFs can undergo reversible assembly and disassembly at room temperature.One of the SOFs displays unprecedently high maximum tolerated dose of 120 mg/kg with mice,which improves by 40%compared with the highest value of the reported SOFs.In vitro and in vivo tests show that the SOF can adsorb doxorubicin and overcome the resistance of multidrugresistant MDR A549/ADR tumor cells to realize intracellular delivery,leading to enhanced antitumor efficacy.Moreover,it can also completely inhibit the posttreatment phototoxicity of photofrin and fully neutralize the anticoagulation of both unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparins through efficient inclusion and elimination or sequestration mechanism.As the first examples that undergo roomtemperature reversible assembly and disassembly,the new SOFs in principle allow for quantitative analysis of the molecular components in the body that is prerequisite for preclinical evaluation in the future.

文摘Strained bridged rings bicyclo[3.2.1]octane and tricyclo[3.2.1.0^(2,7)]octane are prevalent in natural products known for their significant biological activities.However,strategies for efficiently synthesizing these complex frameworks from simple starting materials via de novo synthesis remain underexplored.This article presents an efficient strategy that combines phosphine catalysis and photocatalysis to execute a stepwise tandem reaction involving allenoates and α-cyano cinnamaldehydes,including[3+2]cyclization,[5+2]cyclization,acyl transfer,and decarboxylation reactions,synthesizing a series of functional bicyclo[3.2.1]octa-2,6-diene and tricyclo[3.2.1.0^(2,7)]oct-3-ene skeleton derivatives with excellent chemoselectivity demonstrated throughout the process.Meanwhile,the reaction can also be performed via a onepot,scalable phosphine/photocatalytic cascade process,efficiently yielding the bridged products which can serve as versatile intermediates for further applications.

文摘The selective hydrogenation ofα,β-unsaturated aldehydes/ketones enables precise control over product structures and properties by regulating hydrogen transport pathways and bond cleavage sequences to selectively reduce C=C or C=O bonds while preserving other functional groups within the molecule.This approach serves as a critical strategy for the directional synthesis of high-value molecules.However,achieving such selectivity remains challenging due to the thermodynamic equilibrium and kinetic competition between C=O and C=C bonds inα,β-unsaturated systems.Consequently,constructing precisely targeted catalytic systems is essential to overcome these limitations,offering both fundamental scientific significance and industrial application potential.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)and their derivatives have emerged as innovative platforms for designing such systems,owing to their programmable topology,tunable pore microenvironments,spatially controllable active sites,and modifiable electronic structures.This review systematically summarizes the research progress of MOF-based catalysts for selec-tive hydrogenation ofα,β-unsaturated aldehydes/ketones in the last decade,with emphasis on the design strategy,conformational relationship,and catalytic mechanism,aiming to provide new ideas for the design of targeted catalyt-ic systems for the selective hydrogenation ofα,β-unsaturated aldehydes/ketones.
文摘Photocatalytic CO_(2)cycloaddition reaction presents a promising CO_(2)conversion strategy to establish carbon neutrality.Among emerging catalysts,metal‑organic frameworks(MOFs)have been regarded as paradigmshifting photocatalysts for their atomic precision in active site engineering,controllable porosity,and exceptional photochemical stability under ambient conditions.However,inherent limitations persist in conventional MOFs,including restricted solar spectrum utilization,inefficient charge carrier separation,and inadequate epoxide activation ability.Recent breakthroughs address these challenges through multiple strategies:ligand engineering,dopant incorporation,and composite construction.This review systematically maps the evolutionary trajectory of MOF‑based photocatalysts,providing mechanistic insights into structure‑activity relationships and providing insights and directions for the design of high‑performance MOF‑based photocatalysts.
文摘The development of solid frustrated Lewis pairs(FLPs)catalysts with porous structures is a promising strategy for advancing green hydrogenation technologies and has garnered significant attention.Leveraging the diverse oxidation states and structural tunability of cerium-based metal-organic frameworks(Ce-MOFs),this study employed a competitive coordination strategy utilizing a single carboxylate functional group ligand to construct a series of MOF-808-X(X=-NH_(2),-OH,-Br,and-NO_(2))featuring rich solid-state FLPs for hydrogenation of unsaturated olefins.The-X functional group serves as a microenvironment,enhancing hydrogenation activity by modulating the electronic properties and acid-base characteristics of the FLP sites.The unique redox properties of elemental cerium facilitate the exposure of unsaturated Ce sites(Ce-CUS,Lewis acid(LA))and adjacent Ce-OH(Lewis base(LB))sites within the MOFs,generating abundant solid-state FLP(Ce-CUS/Ce-OH)sites.Experimental results demonstrate that Ce-CUS and Ce-OH interact with theσandσ^(*)orbitals of H-H,and this"push-pull"synergy promotes heterolytic cleavage of the H-H bond.The lone pair electrons of the electron-donating functional group are transmitted through the molecular backbone to the LB site,thereby increasing its strength and reducing the activation energy required for H_(2)heterolytic cleavage.Notably,at 100℃and 2 MPa H_(2),MOF-808-NH_(2)achieves complete conversion of styrene and dicyclopentadiene,significantly outperforming MOF-808.Based on in-situ analysis and density functional theory calculations,a plausible reaction mechanism is proposed.This research enriches the theoretical framework for unsaturated olefin hydrogenation catalysts and contributes to the development of efficient catalytic systems.

文摘Metal organic frameworks(MOFs)have emerged as promising candidates for atmospheric water harvesting due to their high porosity and tunable functionality.Among diverse MOFs,MOF-303 has demonstrated excellent water adsorption capacity,rapid desorption kinetics and structural stability.Nevertheless,its practical application is still limited by the time-consuming synthesis process and difficultiesin morphological control.To overcome these challenges,a surfactant-mediated microwaveassisted strategy was proposed.Compared to conventional heating methods,microwave irradiation reduced the reaction duration from 24 h to 1 h with a 13%increase in product yield(from 76%to 89%).However,the accelerated nucleation under microwave irradiation resulted in smaller crystal dimensions(from 50 nm±10 nm to 35 nm±10 nm),therefore inducing severe particle agglomeration.To mitigate this morphological drawback,systematic investigations were conducted to evaluate the effects of surfactants’species on crystal growth.Among the selected surfactants,poly(sodium-p-styrene sulfonate)(PSS)was identifiedas an effective morphology-directing agent,achieving uniform crystal sizes with improved monodispersity through preferential adsorption on specificcrystallographic planes of the MOF.Subsequent optimization of synthetic conditions,including temperature(120-160℃),reaction time(15 min^(-1) h),and surfactant concentration,yielded MOF-303 with a yield of 96.37%,with particle uniformity of(35 nm±10 nm)and predominantly blocky crystal morphology.Water adsorption measurements confirmedthat the surfactant-modifiedMOF-303 retained comparable performance to the surfactant-free counterpart,with a maximum capacity(water/MOF)of 0.214 g·g^(-1) at 35%RH.This study establishes a scalable and tunable synthetic protocol for MOF-303,providing critical insights into microwave-accelerated crystal engineering.

文摘Cancer is one of the most complex diseases and the second leading cause of mortality worldwide.Due to its poor prognosis and challenges in diagnosis,eradicating cancer remains highly difficult.The limitations associated with conventional therapies have led to the emergence of copious therapeutic strategies such as chemotherapy,phototherapy,starvation therapy,radiotherapy and immunotherapy;however,limited therapeutic efficacy,poor tumor cell selectivity and substantial adverse effects remain significant concern.Attributed to the expeditious advancement of nanotechnology,the amalgamation of nanomaterials with therapeutic approaches provides an opportunity to address the shortcomings of conventional chemotherapy.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),which consist of bridging ligands and ions/clusters connected by coordination bonds,have been widely used in cancer therapy to address the limitations of currently therapeutic interventions,such as poor efficacy,low stability and severe side effects.This potential arises from their tuneable porosities,high specific surface area-to-volume ratio,tailorable diameters,tractable morphologies,variegated compositions,biocompatibility and facile functionalization.We summarized the role of MOF-based nanoplatforms along with mechanistic insights into emerging avenues-such as cuproptosis,ferroptosis,cell-penetrating and biomimetic MOFs,and tumor microenvironment-responsive MOFs-alongside recent advancements in mono-and multifunctional cancer therapeutics.Theragnostic and imaging functionalities,as well as regulatory considerations and future prospects of MOF-based nanoplatforms utilized in cancer treatment,are also discussed.
