Due to almost identical boiling points of benzene and cyclohexane, the extraction of trace benzene from cyclohexane is currently performed the energy-intensive extractive distillation method. Their adsorptive separation by porous materials is hampered by their similar dimensions. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with versatile pore environments are capable of molecular discrimination, but the separation of trace substrates in liquid-phase remains extremely challenging.

The d-f transition rare earth complexes have recently emerged as a promising candidate for display applications due to the parity-allowed transition, high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), short excited lifetime, and tunable emissions. Besides, inkjet printing has been regarded as an important technique for realizing full-color display. However, inkjet-printed d-f transition rare earth complexes have not been investigated.

White organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) is a new generation of lighting technology and has stimulated wide-ranging studies. Despite the advantage of simple device structure, single-emitting-layer WOLEDs (SEL-WOLEDs) still face the challenges of difficult material screening and fine energy level regulation. Herein, we report efficient SEL-WOLEDs with a sky-blue emitting cerium(III) complex Ce-TBO and an orange-red emitting europium(II) complex Eu(Tp) as the emitters, showing a maximum external quantum efficiency of 15.

Doublet emission from open-shell molecules has demonstrated its research and application value in recent years. However, understandings of the photoluminescence mechanism of open-shell molecules are far less than that of closed-shell molecules, leading to challenges in molecular design of efficient doublet emission systems. Here we report a cerium(III) 4-(9H-carbozol-9-yl)phenyl-tris(pyrazolyl)borate complex Ce(CzPhTp) with a new luminescence mechanism of delayed doublet emission, which also represents the first example with metal-centered delayed photoluminescence.

Plastic packaging material is widely used to package high-temperature soup food in China, but this combination might lead to increased exposure to phthalates. The health effects and potential biological mechanisms have not been well studied. This study aimed to examine urinary phthalate metabolites and the expression of inflammatory cytokines in the blood before, during, and after a "plastic-packaged high-temperature soup food" dietary intervention in healthy adults.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are considered as next-generation displays and lighting technologies. During the past three decades, various luminescent materials such as fluorescence, phosphorescence, and thermally activated delayed fluorescence materials have been subsequently investigated as emitters. To date, blue OLEDs are still the bottleneck as compared to red and green ones because of the lack of efficient emitters with simultaneous high exciton utilization efficiency and long-term stability.

Compared with red and green organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), blue is the bottleneck that restricts the wide development of OLEDs from being the next-generation technology for displays and lighting. As a new type of emitter, a Ce(III) complex shows many satisfactory advantages, such as a short excited-state lifetime, 100% theoretical exciton utilization efficiency, and tunable emission color. Herein we synthesized three heteroleptic Ce(III) complexes Ce(Tp)(dtfpz), Ce(Tp)(dmpz), and Ce(Tp)(dppz) with the hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate (Tp) main ligand and different substituted pyrazole ancillary ligands, namely, 3,5-di(trifluomethyl)pyrazolyl (dtfpz), 3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl (dmpz), and 3,5-diphenylpyrazolyl (dppz), and studied their structures and luminescence properties.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have had commercial success in displays and lighting. Compared to red and green OLEDs, blue OLEDs are still the bottleneck because the high-energy and long-lived triplet exciton in traditional blue OLEDs causes the short operational lifetime of the device. As a new type emitter, lanthanide complexes with a 5d-4f transition could have short excited-state lifetimes on the order of nanoseconds.

Luminescent Eu complexes with a characteristic 5d-4f transition have potential applications in many fields. However, their instability in ambient conditions impedes further exploration and application. Herein, we report two new Eu complexes, bis[hydrotris(3-trifluoromethylpyrazolyl)borate]europium(II) (Eu-1) and bis[hydrotris(3-methylpyrazolyl)borate]europium(II) (Eu-2).
