Electron-transfer properties of a nonheme Mn(IV)-oxo complex, [(Bn-TPEN)Mn(IV)(O)](2+), reveals that Mn(IV)-oxo complex acts as a stronger one-electron oxidant than the Fe(IV)-oxo analogue. As a result, an electron transfer process in N-dealkylation has been detected by a transient radical cation intermediate, para-Me-DMA˙(+), in the oxidation of para-Me-DMA by [(Bn-TPEN)Mn(IV)(O)](2+).

In this study, an iridium-catalyzed selective 1,4-reduction of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds is realized, with water as a solvent and formic acid as a hydride donor. The new efficient iridium catalyst features a 2-(4,5-dihydroimidazol-2-yl)quinoline ligand. The chemoselectivity and catalyst efficiency are highly dependent on the electronic and steric properties of the substrates.

TiO:Eu nanoparticles with varying europium concentrations were successfully synthesized via a one-pot sol-gel approach using a molecular heterometallic single-source precursor (SSP) Eu-Ti. For comparison, nanomaterials with similar europium levels were also produced by impregnating europium salts onto the same TiO substrate. All the nanomaterials were thoroughly characterized using Eu elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning (SEM), transmission (TEM), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL).

Vegetation concrete is one of the most widely used substrates in ecological slope protection, but its practical application often limits the growth and nutrient uptake of plant roots due to consolidation problems, which affects the effectiveness of slope protection. This paper proposed the use of a plant protein foaming agent as a porous modifier to create a porous, lightweight treatment for vegetation concrete. Physical performance tests, direct shear tests, plant growth tests, and scanning electron microscopy experiments were conducted to compare and analyze the physical, mechanical, microscopic characteristics, and phyto-capabilities of differently treated vegetation concrete.

The production of green hydrogen through proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a promising technology for industry decarbonization, outperforming alkaline water electrolysis (AWE). However, PEMWE requires significant investment, which can be mitigated through material and design advancements. Components like bipolar porous plates (BPPs) and porous transport films (PTFs) contribute substantially to costs and performance.

Nowadays, polycrystalline lead telluride is one of the premier substances for thermoelectric devices while remaining a hopeful competitor to current semiconductor materials used in mid-infrared photonic applications. Notwithstanding that, the development of reliable and reproducible routes for the synthesis of PbTe thin films has not yet been accomplished. As an effort toward this aim, the present article reports progress in the growth of polycrystalline indium-doped PbTe films and their study.
