Stoichiometry-Regulated Synthesis of Three Adenine-Based Coordination Polymers for Catalytic Excellence through the Synergistic Amalgamation of Coordinative Unsaturation and Lewis Basic Sites.

Nucleobase adenine is a promising candidate for synthesizing fascinating coordination polymers (CPs) due to the presence of five potential metal-ion binding centers. In recent years, CPs have emerged as promising Lewis acid-base centers containing heterogeneous catalysts for a wide range of organic transformations. However, the crucial role of stoichiometric regulations of the starting materials and their consequential impact on catalytic performance are rarely studied.

Self-template impregnated silver nanoparticles in coordination polymer gel: photocatalytic CO reduction, CO fixation, and antibacterial activity.

CO fixation and light-assisted conversion of CO in the presence of water into fuels and feedstocks are clean and sustainable techniques to alleviate the energy crisis and global climate change. In this regard, herein, a waterborne multifunctional metal-organic coordination polymer gel (Ag@GMP) was prepared from silver nitrate and guanosine 5'-monophosphate. Electron microscopy exhibits that Ag@GMP has a flower-like structure, which is composed of vertically grown sheets, and corresponding high magnification images display the presence of silver nanoparticles on the vertically grown sheets.

A "heat set" Zr-Diimide based Fibrous Metallogel: Multiresponsive Sensor, Column-based Dye Separation, and Iodine Sequestration.

Sensing and monitoring hazardous contaminants in water and radioactive iodine sequestration is pivotal due to their detrimental impact on biological ecosystems. In this context, herein, a water stable zirconium-diimide based metallogel (Zr@MG) with fibrous columnar morphology is accomplished through the "heat set" method. The presence of diimide linkage with long aromatic chain manifests active luminescence properties in the linker as well as in the supramolecular framework structure.

A Localized Event-Driven Resilient Mechanism for Cooperative Microgrid Against Data Integrity Attacks.

This article investigates the impact of data integrity attacks (DIAs) on cooperative economic dispatch of distributed generators (DGs) in an ac microgrid. To establish resiliency against such attacks and ensure optimal operation, a localized event-driven attack-resilient scheme is proposed. Most of the existing works examine neighboring information to infer the presence of DIAs, where the detection is limited to events such as multiple link failures.
