Novel pyrrole derivatives were discovered as potent agonists of the niacin receptor, GPR109A. During the derivatization, compound 16 was found to be effective both in vitro and in vivo. The compound 16 exhibited a significant reduction of the non-esterified fatty acid in human GPR109A transgenic rats, and the duration of its in vivo efficacy was much longer than niacin.

The in-depth research on the charge transport properties of BN-embedded polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (BN-PAHs) still lags far behind studies of their emitting properties. Herein, we report the successfully synthesis of novel ladder-type BN-PAHs (BCNL1 and BCNL2) featuring a highly ordered BC3N2 acene unit, achieved via a nitrogen-directed tandem C-H borylation. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis unambiguously revealed their unique and compact herringbone packing structures.

The ultrahigh-sensitive detection of HS is reported using a novel dual-ligand metal-organic framework (MOF) electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor. By combining tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl) pyrene (TBAPy) as ligands and employing zirconium as the metal source, a spindle-shaped Zr-PyTCPPMOF was successfully designed and synthesized. Notably, the multiple nitrogen structures of porphyrin provided abundant binding sites for sulfur (S), further enhancing the ECL signal of Zr-PyTCPPMOF.

A novel detection technique is introduced that offers sensitive and reliable ochratoxin A (OTA) detection. The method leverages the etching of gold nanorods (AuNRs) stabilized by hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) using the oxidized form of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl benzidine sulfate (TMB), creating a susceptible multicolor visual detection system for OTA. The visual detection is enabled by Mg-assisted DNAzyme catalysis combined with the catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) signal amplification strategy.

The DPE-based chromophores exhibit a large Stokes shift and maintain good fluorescence quantum yields. Remarkably, these chromophores demonstrate reversible colourimetric changes and a fluorometric 'on-off-on' switch in response to pH variations.
