AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

A new versatile and easy-to-use remote-controlled reactor setup aimed at the analysis of chemical reactions under solvothermal conditions has been constructed. The reactor includes a heating system that can precisely control the temperature inside the reaction vessels in a range between ambient temperature and 180 °C. As reaction vessels, two sizes of commercially available borosilicate vessels (V = 5 and 11 ml) can be used. The setup furthermore includes the option of stirring and injecting of up to two liquid additives or one solid during the reaction to initiate very fast reactions, quench reactions, or alter chemical parameters. In addition to a detailed description of the general setup and its functionality, three examples of studies conducted using this setup are presented.

Mixed-metal nickel-iron, NiFe materials draw attention as affordable earth-abundant electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Here, nickel and mixed-metal nickel-iron metal-organic framework (MOF) composites with the carbon materials ketjenblack (KB) or carbon nanotubes (CNT) were synthesized in situ in a one-pot solvothermal reaction. As a direct comparison to these in situ synthesized composites, the neat MOFs were postsynthetically mixed by grinding with KB or CNT, to generate physical mixture composites.

Constructing 3D functional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with both robust linkage and planar macrocycle building blocks still remains a challenge due to the difficulty in adjusting both the crystallinity and the dominant 2D structures. In addition, it is also challenging to selectively convert inert C(sp)-H bonds into value-added chemicals. Herein, robust 3D COFs, USTB-28-M (M=Co, Ni, Cu), have been polymerized from the nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of -symmetric 2,3,6,7,14,15-hexahydroxyltriptycene with -symmetric hexadecafluorophthalocyanine (MPcF) under solvothermal conditions.

We report enhanced proton conductivity promoted by a structural phase transition of MFM-504(Cu)-DMF to MFM-504(Cu)-MeOH and to MFM-504(Cu)-OH via ligand substitution upon exposure to MeOH and HO vapors, respectively. MFM-504(Cu)-DMF can be synthesized by the solvothermal reaction of Cu(NO)·3HO and the flexible zwitterionic ligand, imidazolium-1,3-bis(methylenedicarboxylate) (imidc), to afford a unique layered interwoven network structure. MFM-504(Cu)-OH shows a proton conductivity of 5.

Nickel-based metal-organic frameworks, denoted as three-dimensional nickel trimesic acid frameworks (3D Ni-TMAF), are gaining significant attention for their application in nonenzymatic glucose sensing due to their unique properties. Ni-MOFs possess a high surface area, tunable pore structures, and excellent electrochemical activity, which makes them ideal for facilitating electron transfer and enhancing the catalytic oxidation of glucose. This research describes a new electrochemical enzyme-mimic glucose biosensor in biological solutions that utilizes 3D nanospheres Ni-TMAF created layer-by-layer on a highly porous nickel substrate.
