Article Synopsis
- Short peptide assemblies that form supramolecular hydrogels are stabilized by noncovalent interactions among amino acid side chains, with a focus on the role of hydrogen bonds from side chains over aromatic π-π interactions.
- Research on Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc)-functionalized peptides showed that certain substitutions significantly impacted minimum gelation concentrations (MGC), identifying Syn-N and Syn-Q as super hydrogelators.
- The study concluded that asparagine enhances hydrogelation through effective hydrogen bonding with water, while glutamine's efficiency is reduced due to its longer side chain potentially disrupting hydrogen bond networks.

Developing cost-effective, high-efficiency, and stable hole transporting materials (HTMs) is crucial for replacing traditional spiro-OMeTAD in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and achieving sustainable solar energy solutions. This work presents two novel air-stable HTMs based on a spiro[fluorene-9,9'-xanthene] (SFX) core functionalized with N-methylcarbazole (XC2-M) and N-hexylcarbazole (XC2-H) rings. These HTMs were synthesized via a straightforward, three-step process with good overall yields (∼40%) and low production costs.

Herein, we report an inexpensive first-row transition metal Ni heterogeneous catalytic system for the C -mono alkylation of fluorene using alcohols as alkylating agents via borrowing hydrogen strategy. The catalytic protocol displayed versatility with high yields of the desired products using various types of primary alcohols, including aryl/hetero aryl methanols, and aliphatic alcohols as alkylating agents. The catalyst Ni NPs@N-C was synthesized via high-temperature pyrolysis strategy, using ZIF-8 as the sacrificial template.
