Summary: This study investigates the CO2 adsorption process on MgO and Mg(OH)2 surfaces, revealing that H2O molecules significantly enhance CO2 capture on MgO but not on Mg(OH)2, while dehydration defects on Mg(OH)2 dramatically increase the CO2 absorption energy. Three electronic mechanisms responsible for the increase in CO2 adsorption energy were identified, potentially enabling the design of composite MgO/Mg(OH)2 adsorbents with exciting possibilities in carbon capture, utilisation, and storage applications.

Summary: This work investigated the influence of different regeneration conditions on CO2 adsorption on NaA zeolite at high pressures. The characterization of NaA zeolite showed a stable and highly porous structure, with a specific surface area of 247 m2 g-1. The adsorption isotherms of CO2 on NaA zeolite were highly favorable, and the heats of adsorption indicated a physisorption process. The working capacity of NaA zeolite was found to be highly sensitive to pressure and less affected by adsorption temperature.

Summary: The low specific capacity and Mg non-affinity of graphite limit the energy density of ion rechargeable batteries. In this study, we identify that the monolayer C12-3-3 in sp2-sp3 carbon hybridization with high Li/Mg affinity is a suitable anode material for Li-ion batteries and Mg-ion batteries. The monolayer C12-3-3 exhibits high specific capacities for Li and Mg, surpassing most previous anodes. The 2D carbon material of C12-3-3 also demonstrates rapid diffusion kinetics, making it a promising choice for high-capacity and high-rate performance batteries.

Summary: In this study, a sludge-activated carbon adsorbent with CO2 adsorption capacity was prepared by pyrolysis and activation of municipal sewage sludge, and then the activated carbon was modified to increase its CO2 adsorption capacity. The results showed that modification with hydrofluoric acid and sodium hydroxide increased the specific surface area and pore volume of the activated carbon, while modification with aminopropyl triethoxysilane-diethanol monoisopropanolamine reduced these properties. The modifications had a significant impact on the saturated adsorption capacity, and the promoting pressure thresholds were determined for each modification method.

Summary: In this article, a novel catalytic reaction using Pd(0) and Bronsted acid is reported for the synthesis of biologically important imidazolidinone-fused N-heterocycles through redox-neutral intramolecular N-allylation of indoles and pyrroles with alkynes. This atom-economical method is applicable to a wide range of substrates and eliminates the need for leaving groups or oxidizing agents commonly used in traditional allylation reactions.

Summary: This study presents the design and synthesis of sulfated disaccharide inhibitors based on IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S), which showed potent inhibition of Sulf-2. The results suggest that IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S) is the shortest fragment size required for effective inhibition of Sulfs, and a trisulfated disaccharide is identified as the minimal fragment size of heparan sulfate for effective endosulfatase inhibition.

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.

Summary: In this study, the synthesis of functionalized benzo[a]phenazines and indazolo[2,3-a]quinolines was achieved through Rh(III)-catalyzed oxidative annulation of 2-arylquinoxalines and 2-aryl-2H-indazoles with allyl alcohols. The method showed a wide substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, good to high yields of annulated products, and the capability for scaled-up synthesis. A tentative mechanism of the annulation reaction was proposed based on a preliminary mechanistic investigation.
