RESUMEN
Conventional conductive materials such as metals are crucial functional components of conductive systems in diverse electronic instruments. However, their severe intrinsic impedance mismatch with air dielectric causes strong reflection of incident electromagnetic waves, and the resulting low electromagnetic transmissivity typically interferes with surrounding electromagnetic signal communications in modern multifunction-integrated instruments. Herein, graphene glass fiber fabric (GGFF) that merges intrinsic electrical and electromagnetic properties of graphene with dielectric attributes and highly porous macrostructure of glass fiber fabric (GFF) is innovatively developed. Using a novel decoupling chemical vapor deposition growth strategy, high-quality and layer-limited graphene is prepared on noncatalytic nonmetallic GFF in a controlled manner; this is pivotal to realizing GGFF with the desired compatibility among high conductivity, low electromagnetic reflectivity, and high electromagnetic transmissivity. At the same sheet resistance over a wide range of values (250-3000 Ω·sq-1), the GGFF exhibits significantly lower electromagnetic reflectivity (by 0.42-0.51) and higher transmissivity (by 0.27-0.62) than those of its metal-based conductive counterpart (CuGFF). The material design strategy reported herein provides a constructive solution to eliminate the incompatibility between electrical conductivity and electromagnetic transmissivity faced by conventional conductive materials, spotlighting the applicability of GGFF in electric heating scenarios in radar, antenna, and stealth systems.
RESUMEN
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted significant attention as sorbents for gas separation and purification. Ideally, an industrially potential adsorbent should combine exceptional gas uptake, excellent stability, and a lower regeneration energy; however, it remains a great challenge. Here, by utilizing the pore space partition (PSP) strategy, we develop three isostructural MOF materials (Co-BDC-TPB, Co-DCBDC-TPB, and Co-DOBDC-TPB) based on pristine MIL-88(Co). The three pore-space-partitioned crystalline microporous MOFs have triangular bipyramid cages and segmented one-dimensional channels, and among them, Co-DOBDC-TPB exhibits the highest CO2 uptake capacity (4.35 mmol g-1) and good CO2/N2 (29.7) and CO2/CH4 (6.2) selectivity. The selectivity-capacity synergy endows it with excellent CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 separation performance. Moreover, Co-DOBDC-TPB can complete desorption within 10 min. The satisfactory CO2 adsorption ability can be attributed to both microporous aperture arising from PSP and modification of the pore surface by the polar hydroxy group, which enhances the interaction between Co-DOBDC-TPB and CO2 molecules significantly. The exceptional regeneration property may be due to its lower CO2 isosteric heat of adsorption (23.6 kJ/mol). The developed pore-space-partitioned MIL-88(Co) material Co-DOBDC-TPB may have potential application to flue gas and natural gas purification.
RESUMEN
Bilayer graphene (BLG) is intriguing for its unique properties and potential applications in electronics, photonics, and mechanics. However, the chemical vapor deposition synthesis of large-area high-quality bilayer graphene on Cu is suffering from a low growth rate and limited bilayer coverage. Herein, we demonstrate the fast synthesis of meter-sized bilayer graphene film on commercial polycrystalline Cu foils by introducing trace CO2 during high-temperature growth. Continuous bilayer graphene with a high ratio of AB-stacking structure can be obtained within 20 min, which exhibits enhanced mechanical strength, uniform transmittance, and low sheet resistance in large area. Moreover, 96 and 100% AB-stacking structures were achieved in bilayer graphene grown on single-crystal Cu(111) foil and ultraflat single-crystal Cu(111)/sapphire substrates, respectively. The AB-stacking bilayer graphene exhibits tunable bandgap and performs well in photodetection. This work provides important insights into the growth mechanism and the mass production of large-area high-quality BLG on Cu.
RESUMEN
Host-guest doping systems with phthalimides (BI) and N-methylphthalimide (NMeBI) as the host and 1,8-naphthalimide (NI) and 4-bromo-1,8-naphthalimide (4BrNI) as the guest have been developed. The 0.2% NI/BI (molar ratio) with a strong C=O···H-N hydrogen bond exhibited a phosphorescence quantum efficiency (29.2%) higher than that of NI/NMeBI with a weak C=O···H-C hydrogen bond (10.1%). A similar trend was observed in the 4BrNI guest system. A remarkable phosphorescent efficiency of 42.1% was achieved in a 0.5% 4BrNI/BI composite, which represents the highest value in NI-based phosphors. This research indicates stronger hydrogen bonding may have a greater contribution in boosting the phosphorescence efficiency.
RESUMEN
Solar heating and radiative cooling techniques have been proposed for passive space thermal management to reduce the global energy burden. However, the currently used single-function envelope/coating materials can only achieve static temperature regulation, presenting limited energy savings and poor adaption to dynamic environments. In this study, a sandwich-structured fabric, composed of vertical graphene, graphene glass fiber fabric, and polyacrylonitrile nanofibers is developed, with heating and cooling functions integrated through multiband, synergistic, (solar spectrum and mid-infrared ranges) and asymmetric optical modulations on two sides of the fabric. The dual-function fabric demonstrates high adaption to the dynamic environment and superior performance in a zero-energy-input temperature regulation. Furthermore, it demonstrates ≈15.5 and ≈31.1 MJ m-2 y-1 higher annual energy savings compared to those of their cooling-only and heating-only counterparts, corresponding to ≈173.7 MT reduction in the global CO2 emission. The fabric exhibits high scalability for batch manufacturing with commercially abundant raw materials and facile technologies, providing a favorable guarantee of its mass production and use.
RESUMEN
A visible-light-promoted atomic substitution reaction for transforming thiocacids into carboxylic acids with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as the oxygen source has been developed, affording various alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids in over 90% yields. The atomic substitution process proceeds smoothly through the photochemical reactivity of the formed hydrogen-bonding adduct between thioacids and DMSO. A DMSO-involved proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) and the simultaneous generation of thiyl and hydroxyl radicals are proposed to be key steps for realizing the transformation.

The room-temperature phosphorescence of 1,8-naphthalimide was activated by doping it into aromatic dicarboxylic acids. The doping system gives a bright yellow afterglow and 1,8-naphthalimide and isophthalic acid (0.02 mol% doping content) afford a phosphorescent lifetime of 403 ms and a quantum yield of 4.2%. Both energy transfer from the host to the guest and the formation of an intermolecular hydrogen-bonding network are responsible for the observed efficient and long-lived phosphorescence.

The wettability of graphene is critical for numerous applications but is very sensitive to its surface cleanness. Herein, by clarifying the impact of intrinsic contamination, i.e., amorphous carbon, which is formed on the graphene surface during the high-temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, the hydrophilic nature of clean graphene grown on single-crystal Cu(111) substrate was confirmed by both experimental and theoretical studies, with an average water contact angle of â¼23°. Furthermore, the wettability of as-transferred graphene was proven to be highly dependent on its intrinsic cleanness, because of which the hydrophilic, clean graphene exhibited improved performance when utilized for cell culture and cryoelectron microscopy imaging. This work not only validates the intrinsic hydrophilic nature of graphene but also provides a new insight in developing advanced bioapplications using CVD-grown clean graphene films.

Ground-level ozone is the primary source of air pollution in China, particularly during the warmer months. In this study, we investigated the exposure status of ozone pollution and the temperature distribution in an air-conditioned bus in Jinan during the evening peak period based on field measurements obtained with a handheld portable particle counter and indigo disulfonate spectrophotometry. Statistical analysis showed that the passengers experienced poor air quality within the confines of the bus due to the poor air quality outside. Furthermore, the level of passenger comfort was dissatisfactory because of the high temperature, thereby highlighting the urgent need to improve the current situation. Numerical simulations were conducted using FLUENT software to explore the impacts of the air supply angle, the opening and closing of the bus door, and the chemical reaction between ozone and its precursors on the diffusion and distribution of ozone, the temperature, and the airflow field. The results indicated that high concentrations of ozone were present in the middle and front regions of the bus. Pollution can be reduced by keeping the bus door open for no longer than 20 s when waiting for other passengers, and the best optimization effect in relation to the temperature and passenger comfort was determined as an air supply angle of 30°. In addition, the average individual daily intake of ozone was combined with other relevant parameters to assess the exposure level. It is recommended that the elderly and children should avoid peak time travel to reduce their exposure to ozone (inhalation dose values > 60 µg/m3 and > 56 µg/m3 according to simulations, respectively). These findings are expected to effectively improve the air quality and passenger comfort levels in busses, thereby protecting the health of passengers and reducing carbon usage.

A photo- and dioxygen-enabled intermolecular radical Csp3-Nsp2 cross-coupling between guanidines and perfluoroalkyl iodides has been developed. N2-Perfluoroalkacylguanidines, which are of biological importance, were obtained under mild conditions via Nsp2-perfluoroalkylation and subsequent hydrolysis. The role of dioxygen in the reaction system was tentatively elucidated; it was supposed to act as an electron shuttle (redox mediator).
RESUMEN
A visible-light-promoted electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) complex-initiated [5 + 1] annulation between biguanides and perfluoroalkyl halides for the construction of perfluoroalkyl- s-triazines has been developed. It was found that both visible light and dioxygen in the air are favorable for the reaction. A radical-polar crossover mechanism was proposed, in which sequential SET, radical combination, HF elimination, electrocyclization, and aromatization are involved.
RESUMEN
Developing pure organic materials with ultralong lifetimes is attractive but challenging. Here we report a concise chemical approach to regulate the electronic configuration for phosphorescence enhancement. After the introduction of d-pπ bonds into a phenothiazine model system, a phosphorescence lifetime enhancement of up to 19 times was observed for DOPPMO, compared to the reference PPMO. A record phosphorescence lifetime of up to 876â ms was obtained in phosphorescent phenothiazine. Theoretical calculations and single-crystal analysis reveal that the d-pπ bond not only reduces the (n, π*) proportion of the T1 state, but also endows the rigid molecular environment with multiple intermolecular interactions, thus enabling long-lived phosphorescence. This finding makes a valuable contribution to the prolongation of phosphorescence lifetimes and the extension of the scope of phosphorescent materials.
RESUMEN
Perfluoroalkyl-containing aza-tricycles have been prepared in one synthetic operation via an ambient light-promoted three-component reaction of ß-oxo esters, perfluoroalkyl iodide and DBU. Intramolecular C-FO and double C-HF weak interactions and intermolecular C-HO and C-Hπ hydrogen bondings were observed partly due to the incorporation of the perfluoroalkyl group. The perfluoroalkylated non-planar aza-tricycles exhibit interesting room-temperature AIE fluorescence and acid-induced fluorescence enhancement characters.
RESUMEN
An efficient halogenation of electron-deficient (hetero)arenes is described. The reaction utilizes common t-BuONa as a catalyst (for iodination) or a promoter (for bromination and chlorination), and perfluorobutyl iodide, CBr4 or CCl4 as the readily-available halogenating agents, respectively. The protocol features broad scope, high efficiency, mild conditions and gram scalability. An ionic pathway involving halogen bond formation and halophilic attack is proposed. The utility of the resulting iodinated heteroarenes is demonstrated in visible light-mediated Caryl-Caryl cross-coupling reaction.
RESUMEN
An ambient-light-promoted and metal-free three-component reaction of active methylene compounds, perfluoroalkyl iodides, and guanidines/amidines is reported. This constitutes a powerful method to prepare perfluoroalkylated pyrimidines with mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, and simple operation. A radical/polar mechanism involving the formation of a halogen-bond adduct and radical cross-coupling is proposed.
RESUMEN
An organic photoredox catalytic one-pot protocol is developed for the highly stereoselective synthesis of (Z)-1,4-enediones. The reaction starts directly from alkyne precursors, using 4-(4-cyanophenyl)-2,6-diphenylpyrylium tetrafluoroborate (CN-TPT) as an efficient photosensitizer and dioxygen in the air as a green oxidant. A Csp-Csp oxidative coupling/[4 + 2] cyclization (with dioxygen)/fragmentive isomerization cascade mechanism was proposed. The predominant formation of (Z)-1,4-enediones is attributed to the efficient visible-light illumination from blue LEDs, along with possible energy transfer from the photosensitizer CN-TPT to the E-isomers.

Efficient synthesis of spiro[isoquinolinone-4,2'-oxiranes] was achieved based on a multicomponent one-pot reaction of readily available cis-2-acetyl-oxirane-2-carboxamides, arylaldehydes and malononitrile at room temperature. However, in the reaction with trans-2-acetyl-oxirane-2-carboxamide substrates, 3-iminoisoindolinones were obtained in moderate to high yields.
