Summary: Spin-transition heterostructures have been developed to investigate the scaling behavior of strain induced in the shell by the spin transition of the core. The results show that for thicker shells, the shell is influenced to depths greater than 100 nm in response to the spin transition of the core, while for thin shells, the relationship between core volume change and shell strain becomes more complex.

Summary: The effects of pressure on the microstructure and magnetic properties of Co-Fe bistable Prussian blue analogues were investigated. The results showed that pressure can control the interconversion of two structures through charge transfer mediated by cyanide bridges. These findings provide important clues for further understanding the microstructure and magnetic behavior of the material.

Summary: The Fenton reaction is effective for degrading pollutants in wastewater and can be improved by UV/visible light irradiation. A photo-Fenton catalyst, K2Mn[Fe(CN)6], was synthesized using a grinding-washing method and its activity was evaluated through the degradation of various pollutants. The catalyst showed poor degradation efficiency in darkness, but significant improvement under visible light irradiation. Parameters such as catalyst loading and H2O2 concentration also influenced the degradation rate. OH radicals were identified as the main reactive species in the photo-Fenton process. The catalyst could be valuable for water treatment in industrial areas.

Summary: The K0.4Co1.3[Fe(CN)6]·nH2O samples prepared by co-precipitation method exhibit different crystal phase structures and magnetic properties at different temperatures. At 80 degrees C, part of FeIIILS-CN-CoIIHS transformed to FeIILS-CN-CoIIILS configuration, and charge transfer occurred from CoII to FeIII ions, resulting in the discrepancy between experimental and theoretical magnetic moments at room temperature.

Summary: Incorporating radical ligands into metal complexes is a growing trend in the design of single-molecule magnets. The described mononuclear transition metal SMMs feature high-spin iron(II) complexes with antiferromagnetically coupled alpha-diiminato radical ligands. Experimental and theoretical studies indicate that these complexes exhibit slow magnetic relaxation behavior with a strong magnetic exchange coupling.

Summary: The presence of arsenic in groundwater and other drinking water sources poses a significant public health concern. This study compares the performance of different iron oxide nanomaterials supported on sand for arsenic adsorption in continuous flow experiments. The results show that nanomaterials with lower agglomeration and good dispersion tend to be released during water treatment. The use of clusters of nanoparticles synthesized through a solvothermal method (cIONPs) overcomes this implementation issue and exhibits higher adsorption capacities.

Summary: New axially blocked unsymmetrical dirhodium complexes can photocatalyze the production of H-2 under red light irradiation with a high turnover number (TON) of 23 +/- 3 in the presence of acid and a sacrificial donor, thanks to their multiple metal/ligand-to-ligand charge transfer transitions that improve their absorption of light into the near-IR.
