Despite significant progress in tin-based perovskites, the development of stable and high-performance tin-based perovskite solar cells (TPSCs) remains a challenge. In this pursuit, a multitude of strategies have been explored, encompassing the use of reducing agents, antioxidants, bulky cations, and customized solvent systems. We propose an improved approach for synthesizing SnI from elemental tin and iodine. Here, we generate tin nanoparticles grafted with a carboxylic acid from tin powder-carboxylic acid-assisted synthesis (CAAS). This methodology not only improves the synthesis process of SnI but also enhances precursor stability against oxidation. We use Sn MAS NMR to study the atomic-level structure of the resulting FASnI thin films and find that the CAAS approach leads to highly pure and unoxidized material. We report remarkable reproducibility in fabricating large-area (1 cm) flexible TPSCs with significant improvement in open-circuit voltage leading to the champion device showing a power conversion efficiency of 8.35%.

Ru(II)-catalyzed, carboxylic acid-assisted oxidative annulation of -aryl azoles with alkynes via double C-H activation to produce highly functionalized π-extended imidazo[1,2-]quinolines is reported. The reaction features a broad substrate generality and tolerates various biologically relevant scaffolds. Interestingly, annulated products showed strong fluorescence properties and an AgIE effect and exhibited a selective fluorescent response toward the Cu ion.

A photo-promoted oxidative cyclization, that is, the Mallory reaction of 2,3-diarylbenzophopholes has been developed. With the assistance of Bi(OTf) Lewis acid, the reaction proceeds smoothly under visible light irradiation even without any external oxidants. The newly developed dehydrogenative conditions are compatible with various functional groups and substitution patterns, which enables the streamlined synthesis of highly condensed dibenzophosphole derivatives of potent interest in material chemistry.

Developing multifunctional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for effective catalysis and sensing remain a significant challenge. This study presents the synthesis of an imidazole-based angular linker, 4,4'-(1-methyl-1H-imidazole-4,5-diyl)dibenzoic acid (4,5-HImdb), which is used in the synthesis of the Cd(4,5-Imdb)-MOF. This MOF demonstrates robust and recyclable properties, making it suitable for solvent-free Strecker synthesis and in the detection of the secondary explosive 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) molecule, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 7.

We have developed a family of dinuclear complexes using 2,7-disubstituted 1,8-naphthalenediol ligands that bind by molecular recognition to two neighboring phosphate diesters of the DNA backbone with the dinuclear Cu and Ni complexes exhibiting a severe cytotoxicity for human cancer cells. To increase the binding affinity, we intended to synthesize the corresponding dinuclear Fe complex. Surprisingly, we obtained a tetranuclear Fe perylene-based complex instead of the expected dinuclear Fe naphthalene-based complex.
