Summary: Configurational entropy-stabilized single-phase high-entropy oxides (HEOs) have been found to exhibit reversible lithium storage and high specific capacity, which are challenging for conventional electrodes. In this study, in situ transmission electron microscopy techniques were used to investigate the reaction dynamics and structural evolutions of rocksalt-type HEOs during cycling. It was revealed that the composition-dependent conversion/alloying reaction kinetics and spatiotemporal variations of valence states are responsible for the reversible and symmetrical delithiation reactions in HEOs. The recovery of the original rocksalt structure after delithiation was observed, which is not possible in monometallic oxide systems. Rigorous electrochemical tests and postmortem TEM analysis confirmed the importance of structural recovery capability in achieving high-capacity Li-storage in HEOs.

Summary: By using in situ transmission electron microscopy and density functional theory calculations, the influence of planar defects on the diffusion pathways and transport kinetics of Li ions in a tungsten trioxide lattice is revealed. It is found that planar defects disrupt the continuity of ion conduction channels by altering the charge distribution and lattice spacing, leading to a significant increase in energy barrier for Li diffusion. This atomic-level understanding has important implications for rational interface design in solid-state batteries and solid oxide fuel cells.

Summary: Graphite is a major anode material for lithium-ion batteries, and the study provides direct evidence of the anisotropic transport behavior of Li+ along intra and interlayer pathways. The experiments show that when interlayer Li+ transport becomes dominant, it leads to the generation of a substantial amount of heat, causing melting of the tungsten tip and possibly thermal failure in graphite-based lithium-ion batteries.

Summary: To increase chemical reaction rates, general solutions include increasing the concentration/temperature and introducing catalysts. In this study, the rate constant of an electrophilic metal coordination reaction is accelerated 23-fold on the surface of layered aluminosilicate (LAS), where the reaction substrate (ligand molecule) induces dielectric polarization owing to the polar and anionic surface. This unique method to accelerate the chemical reaction is expected to expand the range of utilization of LASs, which are chemically inert, abundant, and environmentally friendly. The concept is also applicable to other metal oxides which have polar surfaces, which will be useful for various chemical reactions in the future.

Summary: Hierarchically porous bimetallic zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) particles (etched Zn33Co67-ZIF) were designed and prepared through an ethylene glycol-assisted aqueous etching method, which effectively increased their pore size and surface area. After thermal treatment, the etched Zn33Co67-ZIF particles transformed into cobalt and nitrogen co-doped hierarchically porous carbon (etched Zn33Co67-C), which exhibited increased mesoporosity and specific capacitance compared to the unetched one. The presented ethylene glycol-assisted aqueous etching process provides a facile template-free strategy for improving the energy storage performance of MOFs and their corresponding porous carbons.

Summary: In this study, a hybrid material of pyrazine-based pi-conjugated organic molecule, hexaazatrinaphthalene (HATN), and MXene was reported. The combination of MXene as a conductive substrate and HATN as an electroactive material resulted in a unique 3D structure with increased ion transport channels, leading to enhanced charge transfer and ion diffusion rates. The obtained HATN/MXene composite exhibited a high desalination capacity of 57.5 mg g(-1), a fast desalination rate of 13.2 mg g(-1) min(-1), and good long-term stability. This work provides valuable insights for the design and application of organic molecules in the field of capacitive deionization.

Summary: Currently, the Haber-Bosch (HB) process dominates artificial ammonia synthesis. However, concerns over energy consumption and air pollution have led to a growing demand for economical and eco-friendly approaches like electrocatalysis. Through density functional theory calculations, we investigated bimetallic alloys of iron and group-IVA elements for their potential in electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (e-N2RR). Our findings showed that alloying iron with group-IVA elements can significantly enhance the e-N2RR activity, with an optimal Fe-Si ratio of 3:1 yielding a theoretical overpotential of only 0.21 V, one of the best results observed. Our work proposes a rational design for practical and economical e-N2RR electrocatalysts, as many of the bimetallic alloys studied have already been synthesized.

Summary: Iron phthalocyanine-coated hexagonal boron nitride nanoparticles were heat treated to form single atom Fe-1/h-BN catalysts. The deposition process of FePc was optimized to avoid nanoparticle formation. The FePc exhibits high thermal stability and decomposes into single iron atoms under oxidizing conditions. Reduction treatment results in the formation of Fe-based nanoparticles and a decrease in catalytic activity. The results demonstrate the potential of metal phthalocyanine as a precursor for cheap and efficient single atom catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation.

Summary: The self-adaptability of galvanostatic electrolysis was found to be helpful in a multistage chemo- and diastereoselective electrochemically promoted cyclodimerization of chalcones. Through a series of reductive events, densely functionalized cyclopentanes with five contiguous stereocenters were obtained (25 examples, yields up to 95%, dr values up to >20:1). Further experimental and electrochemical investigations indicated the crucial role of dynamic kinetic resolution of the aldol intermediate in the reaction mechanism.
