Summary: Asymmetric catalysis is essential due to the increasing demand for optically pure substances. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) show great potential for heterogeneous asymmetric catalysis. The unique properties of MOFs and COFs make them highly active and enantioselective for a wide range of asymmetric catalytic organic transformations.

Summary: In this study, a new luminescent material called BABCz was synthesized by three simple reactions. The material was characterized and tested for its thermal stability and luminescence properties. It was found that BABCz can be doped with CBP to create highly uniform films for the fabrication of OLED devices. The simplest device in the sandwich structure emitted green light at voltages ranging from 6.6 to 12 V and had a brightness of 2300 cd/m(2), suggesting its potential for OLED manufacturing.

Summary: This review summarizes the challenges and progress in the development of solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes (SOLEDs) in both industry and academia. Solution processing offers advantages like material efficiency, low-cost production, and scalability. However, there are complications related to solvent resistance and suitable solution-processable materials, ultimately leading to less efficient and shorter-lived SOLEDs compared to those fabricated by thermal evaporation. This review highlights the current status of SOLED development and presents research guidelines to overcome these limitations and achieve efficient, long-lasting, and commercially-viable SOLEDs.

Summary: Enantiomers are pairs of chiral compounds that have similar chemical and physical properties, but often exhibit opposite biological effects. Chiral recognition plays a crucial role in various fields such as medicine, food, and biochemistry. β-cyclodextrin (CD) with its hydrophilic external cavity and hydrophobic internal cavity can enhance the chiral recognition of guest molecules in a chiral sensor by combining with different materials.

Summary: This article presents a molecular emitter that combines circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) with high radiative rate constants of the triplet exciton decay. The emitter shows efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) and high sensitivity to hydrogen bonding of the ligands. The mechanism behind this behavior is a thermal equilibrium between excited states and inter-ligand C-Hmiddotmiddotmiddot pi interactions.
