Employment of H3L (= 2-(β-naphthalideneamino)-2-hydroxymethyl-1-propanol) in mixed-metal copper-lanthanide cluster chemistry has led to the isolation of four new enneanuclear heteronuclear isostructural [Cu₇(II)Ln₂(III)] complexes. More specifically, the solvothermal reaction of Cu2(OAc)4·2H2O with H3L and the corresponding lanthanide nitrate salt in MeCN in the presence of a base, NEt3, yielded three complexes with the general formula [Cu₇(II)Ln₂(III)(L)4(HL)2(OAc)4]·2MeCN (Ln: Gd, 1·2MeCN; Tb, 2·2MeCN; Dy, 3·2MeCN), while in addition the Y(III) analogue, [Cu₇(II)Y₂(III)(L)4(HL)2(OAc)4]·2MeCN (4·2MeCN), was also synthesized in the same manner. The structure of the cluster describes two corner-sharing [Cu3Ln] cubane metallic units, each one further connected to one Cu(II) ion. Dc magnetic susceptibility studies in the 5-300 K range for complexes 1-4 reveal the presence of both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic exchange interactions within the metallic clusters.

The recovery and separation of organic solvents is highly important for the chemical industry and environmental protection. In this context, porous organic polymers (POPs) have significant potential owing to the possibility of integrating shape-persistent macrocyclic units with high guest selectivity. Here, we report the synthesis of a macrocyclic porous organic polymer (np-POP) and the corresponding model compound by reacting cyclotetrabenzil naphthalene octaketone macrocycle with 1,2,4,5-tetraaminobenzene and 1,2-diaminobenzene, respectively, under solvothermal conditions.

Silver-based fast ionic conductors show promising potential in thermoelectric applications. Among these, AgS offers unique high plasticity but low electrical conductivity, whereas AgTe exhibits high intrinsic electrical conductivity yet faces limitations due to high thermal conductivity and poor plasticity. Developing a composite thermoelectric material that combines the benefits of both is therefore essential.

Carbon dots (CDs) are promising candidates as oxygen photosensitizers, in cancer therapeutic applications due to their high quantum yield, superior chemical and photostability, low cytotoxicity and ease of chemical functionalization/tuning. Nitrogen doping can further improve oxygen photosensitization performance. Besides photodynamic therapy, however, the possibility to finely and remotely regulate the intracellular redox balance by using physical stimuli has been attracting more and more interest not only for nanotheranostic application, but also as a novel, fully biocompatible therapeutic tool.

Highly effective adsorbents, with their impressive adsorption capacity and outstanding selectivity, play a pivotal role in technologies such as carbon capture and utilization in industrial flue gas applications, leading to significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. This study aims to synthesize advanced composites via solvothermal methods, incorporating a defective Zirconium-based MOF and amine-functionalized graphene oxide. The main objective is to enhance the CO adsorption capacity of the composite and improve its CO/N separation selectivity.

Designing semiconductor photocatalysts with unique structures can improve the transfer efficiency of solar energy to hydrogen (H). In this study, a dual modification method of element doping and morphological control was used. The Mn-doped hollow octahedron ZnInS (ZHO-Mn) was synthesized by a simple one-pot solvothermal method using the octahedral Mn-based metal-organic framework (Mn-MOF) as a template.
