Summary: The liquid state NMR chemical shift of protons is a commonly used parameter to characterize host-guest complexes. The theoretical counterpart of this parameter, H-1 NMR chemical shielding affected by the solvent (H-1 CS), can provide valuable insights into spatial arrangements of supramolecular systems. Computational analysis can reliably predict H-1 CS values for challenging cases, such as aggregation of aromatic and antiaromatic molecules in solution.

Summary: In this study, the dynamics of water molecules confined in zeolites were investigated using H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance. The results showed that water molecules exhibited complex behavior at different temperatures, including freezing, fast rotation, and translational motion. The activation energy for translational motion was significantly lower than in other materials, indicating that the hierarchical porosity of zeolites affects water diffusion not only through the presence of mesopores, but also the arrangement of meso- and micropores.

Summary: The researchers investigated the molecular diffusivity of reactants, catalyst, and product in a copper-catalyzed click reaction. They developed new NMR diffusion methods and found that while the reactants showed decreased diffusivity over time, the product showed increased diffusivity and the catalyst showed slight diffusion enhancement. This suggests the presence of a relatively large intermediate species with lower diffusivity than the reactants and product.

Summary: Proton diffusion in the co-PNIS85/15 membrane was investigated at temperatures ranging from 200 to 363 K and different water contents using H-1 SFG NMR diffusometry. At high hydration values, two different activation modes were observed, with the crossover point occurring at approximately 250-260 K. Above the crossover point, the activation energy was similar to that of bulk water. Below the crossover point, the activation energy was higher. At low hydration values, the activation energies for the high-temperature and low-temperature modes converged.

Summary: Scientific warnings on the health effects of dietary lipid oxidation products in culinary oils have not received sufficient attention. This study used high-resolution NMR analysis to characterize the modifications to fatty acids and the evolution of LOPs in different oils under thermal stress. The results showed that oils rich in PUFA were more susceptible to thermo-oxidative stress, while ghee and macadamia oil produced low levels of toxic LOPs.

Summary: Artificial molecular machines are expected to operate in environments where solvent behaviors dramatically change upon confinement into limited spaces, impacting molecules significantly. In this study, an amphidynamic metal-organic framework with barrierless rotators was demonstrated to operate as NMR sensors for solvent viscosity, showing that confined solvents have significantly higher viscosity values compared to bulk solvents. Relaxation times and activation energies for rotational dynamics of solvents in MOFs were also explored, revealing different behaviors compared to those in bulk solvents. Translational diffusion measurements of solvents in MOFs showed intermediate dynamics for the translational motion.

Summary: This work demonstrates p-H-2-based SABRE hyperpolarization at pressures up to 200 bar, which is much higher than previously reported. The study shows that increasing pressure enhances signal intensities until reaching a plateau. It is also found that H-2 solubility increases linearly with pressure, indicating that p-H-2 availability is not the limiting factor beyond a certain pressure. Additionally, the use of liquefied ethane and compressed CO2 as removable solvents for hyperpolarization is demonstrated.

Summary: Understanding aging phenomena of alternative fuels is crucial due to the introduction of different aging-related phenomena. A novel test rig was designed to simulate real conditions and achieve knowledge gain for fuel aging and additive technology development. The results showed that pure FAME performed well in the realistic setup due to its high polarity preventing deposit accumulation. Insightful information with minimal effort and sample volume was obtained through benchtop 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Conventional fuel and FAME blends were found to lead to system failures and large quantities of deposits.

Summary: Hollow MoS2 cubes and spheres were successfully synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal method with the hard template method. The hollow MoS2 cubes exhibited higher specific capacitance and energy density compared to the hollow MoS2 spheres. The symmetrical supercapacitors assembled with these hollow structures showed good performance and high capacity retention after multiple cycles. These findings suggest that controlling the pore structure and surface characteristics of MoS2 is crucial for enhancing its electrochemical properties.

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
