A new core of [1,2,5]-thiadiazolo-[3,4-c]-pyridine was employed for the fabrication of microporous organic polymers exhibiting a very high CO uptake of 5.8 mmol g (25.5 wt%) at 273 K and 1 bar. The presence of CO-philic active sites and microporosity confer the high uptake and superior selectivity (61) towards CO over N.

Synthetic photobiocatalysts are promising catalysts for valuable chemical transformations by harnessing solar energy inspired by natural photosynthesis. However, the synergistic integration of all of the components for efficient light harvesting, cascade electron transfer, and efficient biocatalytic reactions presents a formidable challenge. In particular, replicating intricate multiscale hierarchical assembly and functional segregation involved in natural photosystems, such as photosystems I and II, remains particularly demanding within artificial structures.

This study introduces a green approach to sample preparation by applying natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) to determine phthalates in carbonated soft drinks using high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). The method employs hollow fiber-microporous membrane liquid-liquid microextraction combined with a 96-well plate system, utilizing fatty-acid-based DES in the pores of the membranes. This methodology substantially reduces the use of organic solvents, and its efficiency is comparable to or better than conventional methods.

The design and synthesis of photoactive metal-free 2D materials for selective heterogeneous photoredox catalysis continue to be challenging due to issues related to nonrecyclability, and limited photo- and chemical stability. Herein, we report the photocatalytic properties of a triazine-based porous COF, , which is found to be capable of facilitating both SET (single electron transfer) for photocatalytic reductive debromination of phenacyl bromide in absence of oxygen and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) for benzylamine photo-oxidation in the presence of oxygen, respectively, under visible light irradiation. Inspired by the latter results, we further systematically investigated different-sized benzylamine substrates in this single-component reaction and compared the results with an analogous COF () exhibiting a larger pore size.

The separation and purification of acetylene from the light hydrocarbon gas mixtures is considered as one of the most industrially challenging task for the production of fine chemicals. Though metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidates for such separation and offer a cost and energy-efficient pathway, achieving the trade-off between sorption capacity and separation selectivity along with framework robustness is a daunting task and demands effective design. Herein, a new 3D chemically stable MOF, IITKGP-24 (stable over a wide range of aqueous pH solution, pH = 2-12) is developed, displaying excellent separation selectivity of 13.

Although plant evolution has offered diverse biomass resources, the production of high-quality biochar from desirable lignocelluloses remains unexplored. In this study, distinct lignocellulose substrates derived from eight representative plant species were employed to prepare biochar samples under three different temperature treatments. Correlation analysis showed that only hemicellulose was a consistently positive factor of lignocellulose substrates to account for the dye-adsorption capacities of diverse biochar samples.
