- - A new method is introduced for turning lignin into graphite at room temperature, achieving a high yield of 87% and notable properties like a strong negative surface potential and super-hydrophilicity.
- - The super-hydrophilic graphite can easily mix with polar solvents, making it useful for various applications, especially when combined with liquid metals for creating electrical circuit patterns.
- - These electrically conductive patterns retain strong performance even when flexed or twisted, paving the way for innovative designs in flexible electronics, sensors, and biomedical devices.
Article Abstract
A cost-effective, and low-energy room-temperature cascade catalytic carbonization strategy is demonstrated for converting lignin into graphite with a high yield of 87 %, a high surface potential of -37 eV and super-hydrophilicity. This super-hydrophilic feature endows the lignin-derived graphite to be dispersed in a variety of polar solvents, which is important for its future applications. Encapsulating of liquid metals with the graphite for electrical circuit patterning on flexible substrates is also advocated. These written patterns show superb conductivity of 4.9 × 10 S/m, offering good performance stability and reliability while being repeatedly stretched, folded, twisted, and bent. This will offer new designs for flexible electronic devices, sensors, and biomedical devices.

A Cr-doped VO nanobelt (Cr/VO) with remarkable peroxidase-like activity was synthesized and coupled with uricase to catalyze the cascade reaction for detection of uric acid. Notably, the affinity of Cr/VO for 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine dihydrochloride hydrate (TMB) and hydrogen peroxide (HO) is tenfold and 20-fold higher, respectively, than that of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The Cr/VO exhibits highly reactive and stable peroxidase activity at temperatures of 20-60 ℃.

Reported herein is a concise synthesis of sulfoximidoyl amidines enabled by a Pd-catalyzed cascade aza-Claisen rearrangement and nucleophilic reaction at room temperature. Free -sulfoximines and -allylynamides were employed as the modular building blocks to produce the expected sulfoximine amidine derivatives in highly chemoselective models and in 100% atom efficiency. A broad range of functional groups were well tolerated under these gentle reaction conditions to give the desired products in generally good to excellent yields.

Herein, a novel zinc-organic gel with self-catalysis-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance was prepared as an emitter for the first time to assemble a biosensor for ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-221 (miR-221) related to liver cancer. Interestingly, Zn served as a central ion to coordinate with multidentate ligands 2,4,6-tris(4-carboxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TATB) at room temperature to form Zn-TATB-MOGs with excellent ECL intensity. More importantly, compared to metal ions (e.

Enzymatic glycosylation is an efficient and biocompatible approach to enhance natural product bioavailability. Cellobiose phosphorylase, a novel glycosyltransferase, utilizes 1-phospho-glucose (1-p-Glc) as a glycosyl donor for regioselective glycosylation of various natural substrates. However, the high cost of 1-p-Glc limits the economic feasibility of the process.
