Presented herein are two luminescent magnesium coordination polymers (Mg-CPs), namely [Mg2 (H2O)2 (2-NDC)4 (1,10-phen)2] (1) and [Mg2 (H2O)(1,4-NDC)2 (1,10-phen)] (2), in which 2-NDCH=2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid, 1,4-NDCH2 =1,4-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, and 1,10-phen=1,10-phenanthroline. Based on the mixed ligands, the title compounds exhibit linker-based photoluminescence (PL) properties thanks to the unique configuration of the Mg(2+) ions. The two compounds show interesting dual emission on excitation of the different luminophores of the mixed linkers. In particular, the emissions of compound 2 could be tuned from green to yellow simply by varying the excitation energies. Furthermore, 2 could be excited by using a commercial λ=450 nm blue LED chip to generate white-light emission, which allows the fabrication of a white-light-emitting diode (WLED) with 20 lm W(-1) luminous efficacy. This work may provide a new method for designing tunable PL CPs by using the low-cost and abundant magnesium ion.

The development of materials from renewable resources has been increasing, intending to reduce the consumption of fossil sources, with terpenes being one of the main families that reduce the consumption of isoprene. The study of the binary catalytic system neodymium versatate/dibutyl magnesium (NdV/Mg(-Bu)), for the coordination homopolymerization of β-myrcene and β-farnesene, was carried out analysing different [Nd] : [Mg] ratios (between 4 and 10). Reporting conversions of 92% and 83% at an [Nd] : [Mg] ratio of 8 for polymyrcene (PMy) and polyfarnesene (PFa), respectively, and microstructures comprising 1,4 content above 80% for both polymers (PMy, -59% and PFa, -83%).

Herein, we report a Lewis acid-mediated ring expansion of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) to substituted azetidines via nucleophilic nitrogen group transfer from readily accessible iminoiodinane. This protocol operates under mild, transition-metal-free conditions, and showcases excellent chemoselectivity, along with broad functional group tolerance. We report for the first time that challenging alkyl donor-acceptor cyclopropanes can undergo ring expansion leading to aliphatic azetidines without relying on external oxidants or precious transition-metal catalysts.

Magnesium aluminates (MgO)(AlO) belong to a class of refractory materials with important applications in glass and glass-ceramic technologies. Typically, these materials are fabricated from high-temperature molten phases. However, due to the difficulties in making measurements at very high temperatures, information on liquid-state structure and properties is limited.

Anode-free all solid-state batteries (AF-ASSBs) employ "empty" current collector with three active interfaces that determine electrochemical stability; lithium metal - Solid electrolyte (SE) interphase (SEI-1), lithium - current collector interface, and collector - SE interphase (SEI-2). Argyrodite LiPSCl (LPSCl) solid electrolyte (SE) displays SEI-2 containing copper sulfides, formed even at open circuit. Bilayer of 140 nm magnesium/30 nm tungsten (Mg/W-Cu) controls the three interfaces and allows for state-of-the-art electrochemical performance in half-cells and fullcells.

This manuscript explores the post-synthetic modification (PSM) of amine-functionalized porous coordination cages, specifically focusing on the formation of imine bonds through reactions with aldehydes. Targeting various cage topologies, including zirconium-, magnesium-, and molybdenum-based structures, we demonstrate the tunability of cage solubility and porosity through selective functionalization where the proximity of amine groups on the parent cage impacts the extent of modification. The work highlights the reversible nature of imine formation, offering potential applications in solubility switching and mixed-metal solid synthesis.
