Summary: The condensation reaction between n-butylstannoic acid and ArCOOH yielded hexameric organostannoxanes with drum-like structures, showing good blue emission in solution. Different aromatic groups exhibited varying levels of intra- and intermolecular interactions, and emission efficiencies decreased with smaller spacers between fluorophores and stannoxane core. Thermal studies indicated the compounds remain robust and stable up to around 300°C, and SnO2 was successfully synthesized from organotin drum 3 in the temperature range of 600-1200°C.

Summary: Supercapacitors are highly effective electrochemical energy storage devices due to their high power density, lengthy cyclability, quick charge-discharge rates, and environmentally friendly design. Various metal oxides with 2D composites and high concentration electrolytes have been used to increase their specific power and cyclic stability. However, challenges such as low energy density, high production cost, and short cyclic life still exist. In this study, a multiphase inorganic-organic material with a suitable concentration of electrolyte was selected to resolve the low energy density and operating voltage of electrodes, resulting in promising electrode materials for energy storage applications.

Summary: It is more important to assess the performance of photocatalysts against volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as a mixture rather than as single-component systems. The study found that VOCs generally exist in the form of complicated mixtures in ambient air, which requires understanding of the factors and processes governing their photocatalytic destruction. The humidity conditions had varying effects on the photocatalytic destruction of different types of VOCs.
