A new series of binary organogels, which showed good gelated capability and strongly enhanced fluorescence emission, were designed and prepared by simply mixing two components of L-tartaric acid and alkoxyl substituted stilbazoles. It was found that L-tartaric acid could not only introduce stilbazole with fluorescent property into the gel system, but also provided a main motif for the formation of the gel-phase via multiple hydrogen bonds. Meanwhile, pi-pi interactions between the complexes also played a key role in the gel formation. The decreased nonradiative process, suggested by the longer fluorescent lifetime of aggregates than that of monomers and the presence of the J-aggregation for the aggregated state, favored the enhanced fluorescence emission.

In this study, corn starch esters were obtained by a novel methodology using oleic acid as an esterifying agent and L(+)-tartaric acid as both catalyst and esterifying agent. The degree of substitution (DS) was determined along the reaction time to control the level of substitution achieved (up to 0.33), while all the other reaction parameters were maintained constant.

We report the synthesis of three radical-cation salts of BEDT-TTF from racemic tris(oxalato)ferrate by electrocrystallization in the presence of chiral molecules. In the presence of enantiopure l-(+)-tartaric acid, we observe spontaneous resolution of the labile tris(oxalato)ferrate anion to produce the chiral radical-cation salt α-(BEDT-TTF)[Δ-Fe(CO)].[l-(+)-tartaric acid] which contains only the Δ enantiomer of Fe(CO).

Adding specific lactic acid bacteria to yogurt has been known to enhance both its benefits and flavor. However, differences among the strains of the same species present significant challenges. In this study, we constructed a phylogenetic tree of 232 Limosilactobacillus fermentum strains and selected seven strains with distinct evolutionary relationships for yogurt fermentation.

In this study L-(+)-tartaric acid was used to extract metals from either pure cathode material (NMC111) or black mass from spent lithium-ion batteries. The leaching efficiencies of Li, Co, Ni, and Mn from NMC111 are >87 % at 70 °C, with an initial solid to liquid ratio of 17, and >72.4±1.

Nitrogen-doped quantum dots (NCQD) were synthesized by solvothermal means using -phenylenediamine and l-tartaric acid. The resultant NCQD produced a high quantum yield (40.3%) and a vivid green fluorescence.
