In recent years, significant attention has been directed toward advancing compact, point-of-care testing (POCT) devices to better deliver patient care and alleviate the burden on the medical care system. Common POCTs, such as blood oxygen sensors, leverage electrochemical sensing in their design. However, conventional electrochemical devices typically use Ag/AgCl reference electrodes, which are likely to release trace amounts of silver ions that contaminate the working electrode, causing rapid deterioration of the devices.

A section in the Acta Crystallographica Section C article by Raymond & Girolami [Acta Cryst. (2023), C79, 445-455] stated that the product of the reaction of [(Cp*Rh)(μ-OH)] (Cp* is 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadiene) with 1-methylthymine (1-MT) at pH 10 and 60 °C, to synthesize the anionic component [Rh(η-N-1-MT)], was not an Rh complex, but rather an Ag complex, due to the use of silver triflate (AgOTf) to remove Cl from [Cp*RhCl] to synthesize [Cp*Rh(HO)](OTf), a water-soluble crystalline complex. We will clearly show that this premise, as stated, is invalid, while the authors have simply avoided several important facts, including that Cp*OH, a reductive elimination product, at pH 10 and 60 °C, was unequivocally identified, thus leading to the Rh anionic component [Rh(η-N-1-MT)].

A water-soluble ruthenium(II) complex (L), capable of producing singlet oxygen (O) when irradiated with visible light, was used to modify the surface of an indium-tin oxide (ITO) electrode decorated with a nanostructured layer of TiO (TiO/ITO). Singlet oxygen triggers the appearance of a cathodic photocurrent when the electrode is illuminated and biased at a proper reduction potential value. The L/TiO/ITO electrode was first characterized with cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectroscopy, NMR, and Raman spectroscopy.

In a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell, the production of solar fuels such as hydrogen is often accompanied either by the oxidation of water or by the oxidation of organic substrates. In this study, we report bromide-mediated PEC oxidation of alkenes at a mesoporous BiVO photoanode and simultaneous hydrogen evolution at the cathode using water as an oxygen source. NaBr as a redox mediator was demonstrated to play a dual role in the PEC organic synthesis, which facilitates the selective oxidation of alkenes into epoxides and suppresses the photocorrosion of BiVO in water.

Large-scale use of chemical fertilizers has resulted in the contamination of agricultural runoff waters by soil macronutrients NPK, whose detection is of significant interest. This work reports the determination of macronutrients in the form of urea (N), orthophosphate PO (P), and potassium K (K) in simulated agricultural runoff waters. Their solutions were prepared by extracting water-soluble constituents of soil.
