The title compound, [Cu(C(9)H(13)N(5)O(2))(CH(4)O)](NO(3))(2), consists of square-planar cationic complex units where the Cu(II) centre is coordinated by an N,N',O-tridentate pyridoxal-aminoguanidine Schiff base adduct and a methanol molecule. The tridentate ligand is a zwitterion exhibiting an almost planar conformation. The dihedral angles between the mean planes of the pyridoxal ring and the six- and five-membered chelate rings are all less than 2.0 degrees. The charge on the complex cation is neutralized by two nitrate counter-ions. Extensive N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonding connects these ionic species and leads to the formation of layers. The pyridoxal hydroxy groups are the only fragments that deviate significantly from the flat layer structure; these groups are involved in O-H...O hydrogen bonding, connecting the layers into a three-dimensional crystal structure.

To efficiently capture, activate, and transform small molecules, metalloenzymes have evolved to integrate a well-organized pocket around the active metal center. Within this cavity, second coordination sphere functionalities are precisely positioned to optimize the rate, selectivity, and energy cost of catalytic reactions. Inspired by this strategy, an artificial distal pocket defined by a preorganized 3D strap is introduced on an iron-porphyrin catalyst (sc-Fe) for the CO-to-CO electrocatalytic reduction.

The remarkable efficiency with which enzymes catalyze small-molecule reactions has driven their widespread application in organic chemistry. Here, we employ automated fast-flow solid-phase synthesis to access catalytically active full-length enzymes without restrictions on the number and structure of noncanonical amino acids incorporated. We demonstrate the total syntheses of iron-dependent myoglobin (BsMb) and sperm whale myoglobin (SwMb).

With increasing global environmental awareness and concerns about food safety, biodegradable active packaging has garnered widespread attention. In this study, the stability and bioactivity of tea polyphenol (TP) were enhanced through the preparation of TP-ferric nanoparticles (TP-Fe NPs) using metal-polyphenol ion coordination. Moreover, the introduction of Fe ions can further enhance the antibacterial effects of NPs.

This study explores evolved Hyaluronidase, Lipase, and Elastase's identification, characterization, and therapeutic potential to enhance tissue regeneration and drug delivery systems in otolaryngology. Hyaluronidase variant H5 exhibited a turnover number (k_cat) of 1500 min, a 200 % increase over wild-type (500 min), demonstrating superior hyaluronic acid degradation. Similarly, lipase variant L2 reached 1200 min (400 min wild-type), and elastase variant E3 showed a turnover of 2200 min (1000 min wild-type).

The interactions of nanoplastics (NPs) with natural organic matter (NOM) are influenced by their surface functional groups. In this study, the effects of representative functional groups on the interactions among polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-COOH and PS-NH), hydrophilic low molecular weight (LMW) substances (salicylic acid (SA), phthalic acid (PA), and gluconic acid (GA)), and a novel AlTi-based coagulant were investigated. We found that PS-NH (83.
