Summary: There is a growing interest in the search for environmentally friendly catalysts, particularly solid metal oxides. This study investigates the efficiency of SrTiO3 and the SrTiO3/Nb2O5 catalytic system in the oxidation process of thioanisole. The catalyst was synthesized through microwave-assisted hydrothermal process, and it was found that SrTiO3 nanoseeds have an inducing effect on the growth of Nb2O5. The SrTiO3/Nb2O5 catalyst exhibited high efficiency in the oxidation reaction of thioanisole.

Summary: In this research article, a 4H(+)/4e(-) electron-coupled-proton buffer (ECPB) based on Cu and a redox-active ligand is described. The ECPB system catalyzes both the reduction of O-2 to H2O and the dehydrogenation of organic substrates. Mechanistic analysis reveals that fast disproportionation reactions maintain the ECPB equilibrium.

Summary: The structure of Cu(II) complex with chelating fluorinated ligands was investigated using CW X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) at temperatures of 298 K and 90 K. The spin-Hamiltonian and structural parameters were determined and compared with X-ray data, showing good similarity. In addition, the catalytic behavior of the Cu(II) complex during H2O2 decomposition in acetonitrile-aqueous solutions at 313 K was qualitatively studied using EPR and UV-visible spectroscopy.

Summary: Selective oxidation of methane to methanol has been a dream reaction, but faces challenges due to the strong C-H bond and easy overoxidation of the methanol product. Strategies using oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide and a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen have been developed to improve methanol productivity at mild temperatures. Effective catalysts, including supported metal nanoparticles, colloidal metal nanoparticles, and metal@zeolites, have shown significant achievements. The zeolite fixed metal nanoparticle structure has been found to enhance the reaction by facilitating the formation and enrichment of peroxide intermediates, which could guide the development of more efficient catalysts.

Summary: In this study, the impact of various factors on the electroanalytical detection of hydrazine in different media by different types of palladium-modified electrodes was systematically studied. The efficiency of hydrazine electrooxidation was found to be independent of the composition of the medium, presence of oxygen, morphology, or electroactive area, but rather depended on the purity of the electrode surface. Furthermore, the role of hydrazine surface adsorption on oxide-free and oxide-based Pd-electrodes was highlighted using advanced methods.

Summary: In this study, AuPd nanoparticles fixed within aluminosilicate zeolite crystals were used as catalysts for the direct synthesis of H2O2 in aqueous solution. The zeolite-assisted proton transfer process catalyzed the oxygen hydrogenation to form H2O2, leading to high productivity and selectivity of H2O2 in water. The findings highlight the potential of zeolite fixed structures for designing efficient catalysts in H2O2 synthesis.

Summary: This study developed a novel catalyst, CoOx/h-S-1, by loading CoOx nanoparticles within the internal channels of hierarchical silicalite-1 zeolite. This catalyst exhibited promising catalytic activity and lifetime in the aerobic co-oxidation reaction, with high selectivities of epoxide and carboxylic acid. The study also revealed the importance of loaded CoOx nanoparticles in enhancing radical initiation, transformation, and oxygen transfer, and provided fundamental understanding for the rational design of catalysts and the development of process technology.

Summary: The study explores the enhancement of oxygen permeation and its effect on oxygen adsorption and desorption of ceramic particles by polymer-brush modification, resulting in the formation of an ordered array. Modifications were shown to alter chemical states and decrease oxygen desorption rates, with selective modification on non-reactive sites suggested to avoid harmful effects.

Summary: Radical polymerization was used to synthesize thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-1-vinylimidazole) hydrogels, and a postquaternized cross-linking strategy was employed to fabricate thermo-sensitive quaternized-p(NIPAM-co-VIm) ionic hydrogels. The composite material was characterized using high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The catalytic activity of the metal nanocomposites was modulated by the lower critical solution temperature of particles, and the quaternized composites showed higher catalytic activity due to their hydrophobicity, effective interactions with substrates and catalyst, and flexibility. Additionally, the catalytic activity of the nanocomposites was tuned by the volume phase transition within the hydrogel.
