Herein we show that hydrazine intercalation into 2D titanium carbide (Ti3C2-based MXene) results in changes in its surface chemistry by decreasing the amounts of fluorine, OH surface groups and intercalated water. It also creates a pillaring effect between Ti3C2Tx layers pre-opening the structure and improving the accessability to active sites. The hydrazine treated material has demonstrated a greatly improved capacitance of 250 F g(-1) in acidic electrolytes with an excellent cycling ability for electrodes as thick as 75 μm.

Two copper(II) complexes [Cu(Hpmoh)(NO)(NCS)] (1) and [Cu(peoh)(N)] (2) were designed and synthesized by reaction of Cu(NO)·3HO with hydrazone Schiff base ligands,abbreviated with Hpmoh and Hpeoh. Hpmoh and Hpeoh were prepared by condensation reaction of octanoic hydrazide with pyridine-2-carboxyaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine, respectively. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized using different analytical techniques such as FT-IR, UV-Vis, IR, EPR and single X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses as well as computational methods (DFT).

Copper can be opportunely complexed to modulate oncogenic pathways, being a promising strategy for cancer treatment. Herein, three new copper(II) complexes containing long-chain aliphatic hydrazides and 1,10-phenanthroline (1,10-phen), namely, [Cu(octh)(1,10-phen)(HO)](NO)1, [Cu(dech)(1,10-phen)(HO)](NO)2 and [Cu(dodh)(1,10-phen)(HO)](NO).HO 3 (where octh = octanoic hydrazide, dech = decanoic hydrazide, dodh = dodecanoic hydrazide) were successfully prepared and characterized by several physical-chemical methods.

Herein, we envisioned the design and synthesis of novel pyrazolopyrimidines (confirmed by elemental analysis, H and C NMR, and mass spectra) as multitarget-directed drug candidates acting as EGFR/TOPO II inhibitors, DNA intercalators, and apoptosis inducers. The target diphenyl-tethered pyrazolopyrimidines were synthesized starting from the reaction of phenyl hydrazine and ethoxymethylenemalononitrile to give aminopyrazole-carbonitrile 2. The latter hydrolysis with NaOH and subsequent reaction with 4-chlorobenzaldhyde afforded the corresponding pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ol 4.

A highly efficient visible-light-driven photoanode, N-intercalated tungsten trioxide (WO) nanorod, has been controllably synthesized by using the dual role of hydrazine (NH), which functioned simultaneously as a structure directing agent and as a nitrogen source for N intercalation. The SEM results indicated that the controllable formation of WO nanorod by changing the amount of NH. The values of lattice parameters of the monoclinic phase and the lattice volume changed significantly with the n: n ratio.

Simultaneously achieving exceptional mechanical strength and resilience of graphene aerogel (GA) remains a challenge, while GA is an ideal candidate for formaldehyde removal. Herein, flexible polyethyleneimine (PEI) is grafted chemically onto carbon nanotube (CNT) surface, and CNT-PEI@reduced GA (rGA) is fabricated via hydrothermal self-assembly, pre-frozen, and hydrazine reduction process. Introducing CNT-PEI contributes to well-interconnected/robust 3D network construction by connecting reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets through enhancing cross-linking, while entangled CNT-PEI is intercalated into rGO layers to avoid serious restacking of sheets, producing larger surface area and more formaldehyde adsorption sites.
