Summary: The abuse of antibiotics has caused serious environmental problems and health threats, emphasizing the importance of selectively and sensitively detecting antibiotic residues. In this study, a novel coordination polymer, CP 1, was constructed and showed selective recognition of the nitrofurazone antibiotic with low limit of detection. CP 1 exhibited strong anti-interference properties and recyclability in the detection of the antibiotic in milk, achieving a perfect recovery rate. The fluorescence quenching mechanism of CP 1 was attributed to fluorescence resonance energy transfer and photoinduced electron transfer.

Summary: Designing an imine-based fluorescent probe capable of suppressing the tendency of intrinsic hydrolysis reaction is an attractive topic in chemo-/biosensing. In this study, a hydrophobic 1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diamine was used to synthesize a probe R-1 with two imine bonds linked by two salicylaldehyde groups. The designed imine-based probe showed a high selectivity in fluorescence response by coordinating with Al3+ ions and suppressing the intrinsic hydrolysis reaction.

Summary: This study successfully prepared multicolor fluorescent cellulose hydrogels and utilized them to fabricate actuators with color-changing and shape-morphing functionality. The hydrogels, which also possess antibacterial activity, exhibited different fluorescence colors in acidic and alkaline solutions. An activator shaped like a bionic flower and an intelligent octopus-type soft robot with camouflaging ability were also developed. This research provides an important strategy for developing advanced multi-responsive multicolor tunable behaviors for bionic soft robots, biosensors, and camouflaged robots.

Summary: Gold(II) complexes have been less utilized in catalysis compared to their gold(I) and gold(III) counterparts. However, gold(II) complexes offer potential in homo-coupling and cross-coupling reactions, as they are more easily accessible through simplified oxidation and reduction processes. Gold(II) exhibits characteristics of both soft acid gold(I) and hard acid gold(III). This review explores the unique reactivity and potential applications of gold(II) species, highlighting their significance in catalytic transformations.

Summary: A new aryl selenonium polyoxometalate hybrid was developed and compared with an aryl sulfonium polyoxometalate hybrid in terms of their photocatalytic properties. It was found that the aryl selenonium hybrid exhibited better catalytic performance, which could be attributed to the larger atomic radii of selenium stabilizing the photogenerated electron-hole pair more efficiently. Additionally, the generation of elemental selenium through cleavage of C-Se bonds during catalysis was observed.

Summary: In this work, two metal organic frameworks (MOFs) containing {Cu2I2} clusters, Eu-CuI-INA and Sr-K-CuI-INA, were synthesized and characterized. Both materials have a three-dimensional structure with {Cu2I2} clusters coordinated by INA(-) ligands and Eu3+ or Sr2+ ions. The Sr-K-CuI-INA material exhibited sensitive fluorescence sensing behaviors towards cysteine and nitro-bearing molecules, showing potential applications in bio and explosive molecule sensing. This work provides a good reference for designing fluorescent MOF probes containing CuI molecules.

Summary: Na-ion batteries (NIBs) have attracted great interest as a potential technology for grid-scale energy storage due to the wide distribution, low cost, and environmental friendliness of sodium resources. However, their implementation is hindered by low rate capability and cycling stability caused by the large ionic size of Na+. In this study, a three-dimensional nanoarchitectured coral-like CoSe2@N-doped carbon (CL-CoSe2@NC) was synthesized, and it exhibited improved sodium storage properties with better electrode kinetics and a stable SEI film.
