AST-type zeolite with a plate morphology can be synthesized by topotactic conversion of a layered silicate (β-helix-layered silicate; HLS) by using N,N-dimethylpropionamide (DPA) to control the layer stacking of silicate layers and the subsequent interlayer condensation. Treatment of HLS twice with 1) hydrochloric acid/ethanol and 2) dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) are needed to remove interlayer hydrated Na ions and tetramethylammonium (TMA) ions in intralayer cup-like cavities (intracavity TMA ions), both of which are introduced during the preparation of HLS. The utilization of an amide molecule is effective for the control of the stacking sequence of silicate layers. This method could be applicable to various layered silicates that cannot be topotactically converted into three-dimensional networks by simple interlayer condensation by judicious choice of amide molecules.

Multielemental transition metal compounds represent a class of promising candidates for the biomedical field due to their unique structure and biomedical application potential. However, their synthesis process remains challenging, which was subject to the high-temperature treatment of the multimetallic elements integrated within one system. Herein, for the first time, we have fabricated the nanotripod, , (FeCoNiCuZnAl)O (denoted as HEO) agent, via the structural topotactic transformation of layered double hydroxide (LDH) precursors with the tunable disorder degree, for highly efficient high-entropydynamic therapy associated with metabolism homeostasis.

Intense research efforts on transition metal chalcogenides (oxides and sulfides), pnictides (nitrides and phosphides), and fluorides have demonstrated the complex, intertwined effects of structural and chemical changes on their electrochemical response leading to intercalation, conversion, or displacement reactions when reacting with lithium. Prior efforts largely left halides unexplored due to their heightened solubility in classical liquid electrolytes. In this work, we employ superconcentrated electrolytes to demonstrate the composition- and structure-dependent electrochemical reactivity of AMCl compounds (A = Li or Na and M = Cr, Mn, Fe, and Co).

The reverse water-gas shift chemical looping (RWGS-CL) process that utilizes redox reactions of metal oxides is promising for converting CO to CO at low temperatures. Metal oxides with perovskite structures, particularly, perovskite LaCoO are promising frameworks for designing RWGS-CL materials as they can often release oxygen atoms topotactically to form oxygen vacancies. In this study, solid solutions of perovskite LaCoAlO (0 ≤ ≤ 1), which exhibited high CO production capability and thermal stability under the RWGS-CL process, were developed.

Titanium-oxo cluster (TOC)-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received considerable attention in recent years due to their ability to expand the application of TOCs to fields that require highly stable frameworks. Herein, a new cyclic TOC formulated as [TiO(OPr)(TTFTC)(phen)] (, where TTFTC = tetrathiafulvalene tetracarboxylate and phen = phenanthroline) was crystallographically characterized. TOC takes a rectangular ring structure with two phen-modified Ti clusters as the width and two TTFTC ligands as the length.
