Summary: A non-nucleic acid templated synthesis of peptide macrocycle complexes is described. Short peptide oligomers are template-organized along a solid supported peptide strand and cyclized using microwave-assisted solid phase peptide synthesis to form sequence and size defined macrocycles. The size of the macrocycle products can be precisely tuned by altering the length and number of binding peptide oligomers.

Summary: Dynamic covalent chemistry has seen significant advancements in the past two decades. These developments are mainly focused on two aspects: the continuous discovery of new dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs) and the incorporation of various DCBs into polymer materials for different functionalities. These functional polymer materials have opened up new opportunities for sustainable development. This review provides an overview of the diverse functions enabled by DCBs in polymer materials, including self-healing, chemical recycling, and shape controlling. Key emphasis is given to three-dimensional shape reconfiguration/programming, surface patterning, and reversible actuation. Current issues, challenges, and future development directions of DCBs-containing materials are also discussed.

Summary: A liquid crystalline elastomer (LCE) network with dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs), known as LCE vitrimers, can have its mesogen alignment and network topology reprogrammed locally through bond exchange reactions induced by external stimulus. Upon removal of the external stress, a new network is formed and the reprogrammed shape is fixed, resulting in different physical properties of the LCE vitrimers. This review gives a brief introduction to LCE fundamentals, discusses various DCBs and design principles for LCE vitrimers, presents strategies to improve stability and reprogrammability of registered mesogen alignment, explores preparation methods for LCE vitrimers with complex shapes and their actuations, reviews potential applications such as self-healing and recycling, mechanochromic effects, and post-functionalization of nanopores, and concludes with a discussion on remaining challenges and opportunities.

Summary: In this study, blue-emitting carbon dots with reversible polymerization were successfully designed and constructed for the first time using a Schiff base reaction between tannic acid and ethylenediamine. The formation of carbon dots was attributed to the crosslinking polymerization of precursors caused by imine bond. The reversible depolymerization and polymerization of carbon dots were achieved by pH-controlled imine bond cleavage and re-formation. These properties of reversible fluorescence photoswitching make the carbon dots promising for reversible information encryption.

Summary: Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterial-based membranes hold great promise for various applications due to their attractive properties in molecular separation and transport. However, the swelling problem of 2D membranes has hindered their performance. In this study, the insertion of flexible and hydrophilic carboxylated cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) effectively stabilized the Ti3C2Tx MXene laminar architecture, enhancing mechanical strength, fixing interlayer distance, and improving anti-swelling properties. Furthermore, the intercalation of nanocelluloses increased interlayer spacing and created open gaps for fast and selective molecular transport. When applied in antibiotics separative filtration process, the resulting membrane exhibited excellent anti-swelling properties and high selectivity of antibiotics, making it ideal for various applications.

Summary: Novel thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes with flower-like MnO2 nanomaterials doped in the polyamide (PA) skin layer were prepared for efficient organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) by interfacial polymerization (IP). The optimized TFN-0.50 membrane exhibited significantly improved OSN performance compared to pristine thin film composite (TFC) and spherical MnO2 nanoparticle-doped (TFN-S) membranes. This improved performance is attributed to the unstable interfacial polymerization and the special flower-like structure of the MnO2 nanomaterials, allowing for increased solvent contact area and additional transport channels.

Summary: CO2-responsive magnetic microspheres were prepared by enveloping Fe3O4 with SiO2 and grafting it on PDEA through ATRP technique, followed by molecular imprinting using PDA with BSA as a template. The microspheres showed good selectivity and reversibility in adsorbing BSA under CO2 stimulus. The interaction between BSA and PDEA was theoretically studied and the conformation of proteins remained unchanged under CO2 stimulus. This work provides a strategy to develop selective and switchable materials for protein recognition and separation.

Summary: Microgel-enhanced thermal-sensitive hydrogels are utilized as electrolytes to achieve active heat management, controllable energy storage, and mechanical flexibility in supercapacitors. The improved thermal sensitivity of microgel-enhanced hydrogel electrolyte allows efficient heat consumption through volume phase transition, while slowing down ion transport to weaken the energy storage process. Reversibly controlled energy storage is demonstrated by varying temperature below and above the volume phase transition temperature of the hydrogel electrolytes. The hydrogel electrolytes also provide mechanical flexibility, allowing stable charge-discharge under a bending angle from 0 to 180 degrees. Overall, this work provides a new clue for constructing intelligent hydrogel devices through elegant structure design.

Summary: A copper (II) ions-doped thin film composite (TFC-Cu) membrane with ridge-valley morphology was prepared by incorporating copper (II) ions in the aqueous phase during interfacial polymerization (IP). The ridge-valley morphology increases the contact area between the membrane and the solvent, leading to improved solvent permeability. The hydrophilicity and permeability of the membrane can be adjusted by changing the content of copper (II) ions in the aqueous phase. The modified TFC-Cu-100 membrane exhibited significantly enhanced methanol permeation performance and high dye retention level, as well as maintained good long-term organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) performance.

Summary: With the increasing industrialization, the need for oil-water separation in oil spill accidents and wastewater treatments has become urgent. However, developing superhydrophobic materials for harsh environments and remote drives still poses a significant challenge. This study presents an alternative solution by decorating poly lauryl methacrylate (LMA) on Fe foam via the solution polymerization method. The prepared Fe foam exhibits excellent superhydrophobicity (>150 degrees) under a wide pH range (1 < pH < 12) and temperature range (-55°C to 180°C), with high separation efficiency (>99.1%), cycle stability (>50 times), and oil flux (63.7-114.6 kL m-2 h-1) against various oil/water mixtures under gravity. Additionally, remote magnetic driving enables oil harvesting both above and beneath the water.

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.
