Abstract
Utilizing carbon dioxide (CO2) for valuable chemical production is key to a circular economy. Current processes are costly due to limited microorganism use, low-value products, and the need for affordable energy. This study addresses these challenges by using industrial contaminants like thiosulfate (S2O32-) for CO2 conversion into ectoines. Ectoines, are important ingredients as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Here, six microbial genomes were identified as potential candidates to valorize CO2 and S2O32- into ectoine. After laboratory validation at 3 % NaCl, the fastest-growing strain, Guyparkeria halophila, was optimized at 6 %, 9 %, and 15 % NaCl, showing the highest specific ectoine contents (mgEct gbiomass-1) at 15 %. Batch bioreactors, combining optimal conditions, achieved maximum specific ectoine contents of 47 %. These results not only constitute the highest ectoine content so far reported by autotrophs and most of heterotrophs, but also the first proof of a novel valorization platform for CO2 and S2O32-, focused on pharmaceuticals production.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction to valuable chemical compounds is a sustainable technology with enormous potential to facilitate carbon neutrality by transforming intermittent energy sources into stable fuels. Among various electrocatalysts, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have garnered increasing attention for the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) owing to their structural diversity, large surface area, high porosity and tunable chemical properties. Ligands play a vital role in MOFs, which can regulate the electronic structure and chemical environment of metal centers of MOFs, thereby influencing the activity and selectivity of products. This feature article discusses the strategies for the rational design of ligands and their impact on the CO2RR performance of MOFs to establish a structure-performance relationship. Finally, critical challenges and potential opportunities for MOFs with different ligand types in the CO2RR are mentioned with the aim to inspire the targeted design of advanced MOF catalysts in the future to achieve efficient electrocatalytic CO2 conversion.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) coupled with epoxide to generate cyclic carbonate stands out in carbon neutrality due to its 100% atom utilization. In this work, the mechanism of CO2 cycloaddition with propylene oxide (PO) cocatalyzed by windmill-shaped polyoxovanadate, [(C2N2H8)4(CH3O)4VIV4VV4O16]·4CH3OH (V8-1), and n-Bu4NX (X = Br, I) was thoroughly investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The ring-opening, CO2-insertion, and ring-closing steps of the process were extensively studied. Our work emphasizes the synergistic effect between V8-1 and n-Bu4NX (X = Br, I). Through the analysis of an independent gradient model based on Hirshfeld partition (IGMH), it was found that the attack of n-Bu4NX (X = Br, I) on Cβ of PO triggers a distinct attractive interaction between the active fragment and the surrounding framework, serving as the primary driving force for the ring opening of PO. Furthermore, the effect of different cocatalysts was explored, with n-Bu4NI being more favorable than n-Bu4NBr. Moreover, the role of V8-1 in the CO2 cycloaddition reaction was clarified as not only acting as Lewis acid active sites but also serving as "electron sponges". This work is expected to advance the development of novel catalysts for organic carbonate formation.

Abstract
The preparation of MOF composites is considered as an effective method to address the challenges of shaping MOFs and to create porous solids with enhanced properties and broader applications. In this study, CPO-27-Co was crystallized via a simple strategy within porous chitosan beads. The resulting CS@CPO-27-Co composites were tested for CO2 sorption and they demonstrated promising performances by exceeding 3 mmol(CO2) g-1. The versatility of this strategy was further demonstrated by replacing cobalt(II) ions with nickel(II), also leading to the isostructural CPO-27 framework.

Abstract
The chemical fixation of CO2 into epoxides for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates is an appealing solution to both reduce global CO2 emission and produce fine chemicals, but it is still a prime challenge to develop a low-cost, earth-abundant, yet efficient solid catalyst. Herein, Fe2O3/NiFe2O4 heterostructures are facilely constructed for the highly efficient cycloaddition of CO2 with styrene oxide (SO) to produce styrene carbonate (SC). Both experimental findings and density functional theory (DFT) calculations substantiate the prominent electron transfer and charge redistribution within the heterointerfaces between the biphasic components, which induce a unique interfacial microenvironment that can facilitate the adsorption and activation of SO. This endows the biphasic catalyst with a substantially higher reactivity than the individual components. This study sheds new insights into the establishment of heterostructured catalysts consisting of transitional metal oxides for the high-efficiency production of SC from the cycloaddition of CO2 with SO.

Abstract
With the increasingly serious greenhouse effect, the electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) has garnered widespread attention as it is capable of leveraging renewable energy to convert CO2 into value-added chemicals and fuels. However, the performance of CO2RR can hardly meet expectations because of the diverse intermediates and complicated reaction processes, necessitating the exploitation of highly efficient catalysts. In recent years, with advanced characterization technologies and theoretical simulations, the exploration of catalytic mechanisms has gradually deepened into the electronic structure of catalysts and their interactions with intermediates, which serve as a bridge to facilitate the deeper comprehension of structure-performance relationships. Transition metal-based catalysts (TMCs), extensively applied in electrochemical CO2RR, demonstrate substantial potential for further electronic structure modulation, given their abundance of d electrons. Herein, we discuss the representative feasible strategies to modulate the electronic structure of catalysts, including doping, vacancy, alloying, heterostructure, strain, and phase engineering. These approaches profoundly alter the inherent properties of TMCs and their interaction with intermediates, thereby greatly affecting the reaction rate and pathway of CO2RR. It is believed that the rational electronic structure design and modulation can fundamentally provide viable directions and strategies for the development of advanced catalysts toward efficient electrochemical conversion of CO2 and many other small molecules.

Abstract
Rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere are recognized as a threat to atmospheric stability and life. Although this greenhouse gas is being produced on a large scale, there are solutions to reduction and indeed utilization of the gas. Many of these solutions involve costly or unstable technologies, such as air-sensitive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for CO2 capture or "non-green" systems such as amine scrubbing. Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) represent a simpler, cheaper, and greener solution to CO2 capture and utilization. They are often easy to synthesize at scale (a one pot reaction in many cases), chemically and thermally stable (especially in comparison with their MOF and covalent organic framework (COF) counterparts, owing to their amorphous nature), and, as a result, cheap to manufacture. Furthermore, their large surface areas, tunable porous frameworks and chemical structures mean they are reported as highly efficient CO2 capture motifs. In addition, they provide a dual pathway to utilize captured CO2 via chemical conversion or electrochemical reduction into industrially valuable products. Recent studies show that all these attractive properties can be realized in metal-free CMPs, presenting a truly green option. The promising results in these two fields of CMP applications are reviewed and explored here.

Abstract
Electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction (CO2 RR), as an emerging technology, can combine with sustainable energies to convert CO2 into high value-added products, providing an effective pathway to realize carbon neutrality. However, the high activation energy of CO2 , low mass transfer, and competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) leads to the unsatisfied catalytic activity. Recently, Indium (In)-based materials have attracted significant attention in CO2 RR and a series of regulation strategies of nanostructured engineering are exploited to rationally design various advanced In-based electrocatalysts, which forces the necessary of a comprehensive and fundamental summary, but there is still a scarcity. Herein, this review provides a systematic discussion of the nanostructure engineering of In-based materials for the efficient electrocatalytic conversion of CO2 to fuels. These efficient regulation strategies including morphology, size, composition, defects, surface modification, interfacial structure, alloying, and single-atom structure, are summarized for exploring the internal relationship between the CO2 RR performance and the physicochemical properties of In-based catalysts. The correlation of electronic structure and adsorption behavior of reaction intermediates are highlighted to gain in-depth understanding of catalytic reaction kinetics for CO2 RR. Moreover, the challenges and opportunities of In-based materials are proposed, which is expected to inspire the development of other effective catalysts for CO2 RR.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of an FeII /FeIII metal-organic framework (MOF) nanocrystal with spatial heterogeneity that arises from the non-uniform distribution of different valence states is disclosed. The FeII /FeIII -Ni Prussian blue analog (PBA) delivers superior photocatalytic performance in the selective CO2 reduction reaction thanks to the strong FeII /FeIII coupling, with CO yield up to 12.27 mmol g-1 h-1 and 90.6% selectivity under visible-light irradiation. Density functional theory calculation and experimental studies prove that the spatial heterogeneity of FeII /FeIII in the individual MOF nanocrystal not only directs and expedites the charge transfer within a catalyst particle but also creates the heterogeneity of catalytically-active Ni sites for efficient CO2 photoreduction. The current findings add to a growing literature of materials with compositional heterogeneity and provide a reference for future research.

Abstract
We report the use of Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) MOF-545 and MOF-545(Cu) as supports to prepare catalysts with uniformly and highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles (NPs) for CO2 hydrogenation into CH4. In the first step, we studied the MOF support under catalytic conditions using operando diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy, ex situ characterizations (PXRD, XPS, TEM, and EDX-element mapping), and DFT calculations. We showed that the high-temperature conditions undoubtedly confer a potential for catalytic functionality to the solids toward CH4 production, while no role of the Cu could be evidenced. The MOF was shown to be transformed into a catalytically active material, amorphized but still structured with dehydroxylated Zr-oxoclusters, in line with DFT calculations. In the second step, Ni@MOF-545 catalysts were prepared using either impregnation (IM) or double solvent (DS) methods, followed by a dry reduction (R) route under H2 to immobilize Ni NPs. The highest catalytic activity was obtained with the Ni@MOF-545 DS R catalyst (595 mmolCH4 gNi-1 h-1) with 100% CH4 selectivity and 60% CO2 conversion after ∼3 h. The higher catalytic activity of Ni@MOF-545 DS R is a result of much smaller (∼5 nm) and better dispersed Ni NPs than in the IM sample (20-40 nm), the latter exhibiting sintering. The advantages of the encapsulation of Ni NPs by the DS method and of the use of a MOF-545-based support are discussed, highlighting the interest of designing yet-unexplored Zr-based MOFs loaded with Ni NPs for CO2 hydrogenation.

Abstract
MOF-based photoelectrocatalysis (PEC) using CO2 as an electron donor offers a green, clean, and extensible way to make hydrocarbon fuels under more tolerant conditions. Herein, basic principles of PEC reduction of CO2 and the preparation methods and characterization techniques of MOF-based materials are summarized. Furthermore, three applications of MOFs for improving the photoelectrocatalytic performance of CO2 reduction are described: (i) as photoelectrode alone; (ii) as a co-catalyst of semiconductor photoelectrode or as a substrate for loading dyes, quantum dots, and other co-catalysts; (iii) as one of the components of heterojunction structure. Challenges and future wave surrounding the development of robust PEC CO2 systems based on MOF materials are also discussed briefly.

Aluminium-Based Metal-Organic Framework Nano Cuboids and Nanoflakes with Embedded Gold Nanoparticles for Carbon Dioxide Fixation with Epoxides into Cyclic Esters. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1020. [PMID: 38256094 PMCID: PMC10816805 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25021020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The fixation of carbon dioxide with epoxides is one of the most attractive methods for the green utilisation of this greenhouse gas and leads to many valuable chemicals. This process is characterised by 100% atom efficiency; however, an efficient catalyst is required to achieve satisfactory yields. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are recognised as being extremely promising for this purpose. Nevertheless, many of the proposed catalysts are based on ions of rare elements or elements not entirely safe for the environment; this is notable with commercially unavailable ligands. In an effort to develop novel catalysts for CO2 fixation on an industrial scale, we propose novel MOFs, which consist of aluminium ions coordinated with commercially available 1,4-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (Al@NDC) and their nanocomposites with gold nanoparticles entrapped inside their structure (AlAu@NDC). Due to the application of 4-amino triazole and 5-amino tetrazole as crystallization mediators, the morphology of the synthesised materials can be modified. The introduction of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) into the structure of the synthesised Al-based MOFs causes the change in morphology from nano cuboids to nanoflakes, simultaneously decreasing their porosity. However, the homogeneity of the nanostructures in the system is preserved. All synthesised MOF materials are highly crystalline, and the simulation of PXRD patterns suggests the same tetragonal crystallographic system for all fabricated nanomaterials. The fabricated materials are proven to be highly efficient catalysts for carbon dioxide cycloaddition with a series of model epoxides: epichlorohydrin; glycidol; styrene oxide; and propylene oxide. Applying the synthesised catalysts enables the reactions to be performed under mild conditions (90 °C; 1 MPa CO2) within a short time and with high conversion and yield (90% conversion of glycidol towards glycerol carbonate with 89% product yield within 2 h). The developed nanocatalysts can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused several times (both conversion and yield do not change after five cycles). The excellent performance of the fabricated catalytic materials might be explained by their high microporosity (from 421 m2 g-1 to 735 m2 g-1); many catalytic centres in the structure exhibit Lewis acids' behaviour, increased capacity for CO2 adsorption, and high stability. The presence of AuNPs in the synthesised nanocatalysts (0.8% w/w) enables the reaction to be performed with a higher yield within a shorter time; this is especially important for less-active epoxides such as propylene oxide (two times higher yield was obtained using a nanocomposite, in comparison with Al-MOF without nanoparticles).

Abstract
Host-guest chemistry within the confined space of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offers an almost unlimited myriad of possibilities, hardly accessible with other materials. Here we report the synthesis and physical characterization, with atomic resolution by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, of a novel water-stable tridimensional MOF, derived from the amino acid S-methyl-L-cysteine, {SrZn6[(S,S)-Mecysmox]3(OH)2(H2O)}·9H2O (1), and its application as a robust and efficient solid catalyst for the cycloaddition reaction of ethylene/propylene oxide with CO2 to afford ethylene/propylene carbonate with yields of up to 95% and selectivity of up to 100%. These results nicely illustrate the great potential of MOFs to be game changers for the selective synthesis of industrially relevant products, representing a powerful alternative to the current heterogeneous catalysts.

Abstract
The interface interaction between deposited carbon and metallic electrode substrates in tuning the growth of CO2-derived products (e.g., amorphous carbon, graphite, carbide) is mostly unexplored for the high-temperature molten-salt electrolysis of CO2. Herein, the carbon deposition on different transition-metal cathodes was performed to reveal the role of substrate materials in the growth of cathodic products. At the initial stage of electrolysis, transition metals (e.g., Cr, Fe, Ni, and Co) that exhibit appropriate carbon-binding ability (in range of -30 to 60 kJ mol-1) allow carbon diffusing into and then dissociating from metal to form graphite, as the carbon-binding ability can be determined by the Gibbs free energy of formation of metallic carbides. The catalytic cathodes showing super strong (e.g., Ti, V, Mo, and W) or weak (e.g., Cu) carbon-binding ability produce stable carbides or amorphous carbon, respectively. However, the subsequent deposited carbon is immune to the catalysis of the substrate, forming amorphous carbon nanoparticles and nanofibers on the surface of carbides and graphite, respectively. This paper not only highlights the role of the catalytic cathodes for carbon deposition, but also offers a material selection principle for the controllable growth of CO2-derived products in molten salts.

Abstract
Human existence and societal growth are both dependent on the availability of clean and fresh water. Photocatalysis is a type of artificial photosynthesis that uses environmentally friendly, long-lasting materials to address energy and environmental issues. There is currently a considerable demand for low-cost, high-performance wastewater treatment equipment. By changing the structure, size, and characteristics of nanomaterials, the use of nanotechnology in the field of water filtration has evolved dramatically. Semiconductor-assisted photocatalysis has recently advanced to become among the most promising techniques in the fields of sustainable energy generation and ecological cleanup. It is environmentally beneficial, cost-effective, and strictly linked to the zero waste discharge principle used in industrial effluent treatment. Owing to the reduction or removal of created unwanted byproducts, the green synthesis of photoactive nanomaterial is more beneficial than chemical synthesis approaches. Furthermore, unlike chemical synthesis methods, the green synthesis method does not require the use of expensive, dangerous, or poisonous ingredients, making it a less costly, easy, and environmental method for photocatalyst synthesis. This work focuses on distinct greener synthesis techniques utilized for the production of new photocatalysts, including metals, metal doped-metal oxides, metal oxides, and plasmonic nanostructures, including the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning to the design and selection of an innovative photocatalyst in the context of energy and environmental challenges. A brief overview of the industrial and environmental applications of photocatalysts is also presented. Finally, an overview and recommendations for future research are given to create photocatalytic systems with greatly improved stability and efficiency.

Abstract
Multi-component metal-organic frameworks (MC-MOFs) are crystalline porous materials containing multiple organic ligands or mixed metals, which manifest new properties beyond the linear combination of the single component. However, the traditional one-pot synthesis method for MOFs is not always applicable for synthesizing MC-MOFs due to the competitive coordination of multiple ligands and metals. Therefore, the stepwise construction of MC-MOFs has been explored, which enables more precise control of the heterogeneity within the ordered MC-MOFs. This review provides a summary of the synthesis strategies, namely, ligand exchange, coordinative modification, covalent modification, ligand metalation, cluster metalation, and use of mixed-metal precursors, for the stepwise construction of MC-MOFs. Furthermore, we discuss the applications of MC-MOFs with ordered arrangements of multiple functionalities, focusing on gas adsorption and separation, water remediation, heterogeneous catalysis, luminescence, and chemical sensing.

Abstract
An efficient separation technology involving ammonia (NH3) and carbon dioxide (CO2) is of great importance for achieving low-carbon economy, environmental protection, and resource utilization. However, directly separating NH3 and CO2 for ammonia-based CO2 capture processes is still a great challenge. Herein, we propose a new strategy for selective separation of NH3 and CO2 by functional hybrid membranes that integrate polyimide (PI) and ionic liquids (ILs). The incorporated protic IL [Bim][NTf2] is confined in the interchain segment of PI, which decreases the fractional free volume and narrows the gas transport channel, benefiting the high separation selectivity of hybrid membranes. At the same time, the confined IL also provides high NH3 affinity for transport channels, promoting NH3 selective and fast transport owing to strong hydrogen bonding interaction between [Bim][NTf2] and NH3 molecules. Thus, the optimal hybrid membrane exhibits an ultrahigh NH3/CO2 ideal selectivity of up to 159 at 30 °C without sacrificing permeability, which is 60 times higher than that of the neat PI membrane and superior to the state-of-the art reported values. Moreover, the introduction of [Bim][NTf2] also reduces the permeation active energy of NH3 and reverses the hybrid membrane toward "NH3 affinity", as understood by studying the effect of temperature. Also, NH3 molecules are much easier to transport at high temperature, showing great application potential in direct NH3/CO2 separation. Overall, this work provides a promising ultraselective membrane material for ammonia-based CO2 capture processes.

Abstract
The elimination of pathogenic bacteria from water sources is currently crucial for obtaining drinkable water. Therefore, the development of platforms with the ability to interact with pathogens and remove them is a potential future tool for medicine, food and water safety. In this work, we have grafted a layer of NH2-MIL-125 (Ti) on Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanospheres for the removal of multiple pathogenic bacteria from water. The synthesized Fe3O4@SiO2@NH2-MIL-125 (Ti) nano adsorbent was characterized by FE-SEM, HR-TEM, FT-IR, XRD, BET surface analysis, magnetization tests, respectively, which illustrated its well-defined core-shell structure and magnetic behaviour. The prepared magnetic-MOF composite sorbent was attractive towards capturing a wide range of pathogens (S. typhimurium, S. aureus, E. coli, P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae) under experimental conditions. Influence factors such as adsorbent dosage, bacterial concentration, pH and incubation time were optimized for enhanced bacterial capture. The application of an external magnetic field removed Fe3O4@SiO2@NH2-MIL-125 (Ti) nano adsorbent from the solution along with sweeping the attached pathogenic bacteria. The non-specific removal efficiency of S. typhimurium for magnetic MOF composite was 96.58%, while it was only 46.81% with Fe3O4@SiO2 particles. For specific removal, 97.58% of S. typhimurium could be removed selectively from a mixture with monoclonal anti- Salmonella antibody conjugated magnetic MOF at a lower concentration of 1.0 mg/mL. The developed nano adsorbent may find great potential in microbiology applications and water remediation.

Abstract
Thermocatalysis of CO2 into high valuable products is an efficient and green method for mitigating global warming and other environmental problems, of which Noble-metal-free metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are one of the most promising heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 thermocatalysis, and many excellent researches have been published. Hence, this review focuses on the valuable products obtained from various CO2 conversion reactions catalyzed by noble-metal-free MOFs, such as cyclic carbonates, oxazolidinones, carboxylic acids, N-phenylformamide, methanol, ethanol, and methane. We classified these published references according to the types of products, and analyzed the methods for improving the catalytic efficiency of MOFs in CO2 reaction. The advantages of using noble-metal-free MOF catalysts for CO2 conversion were also discussed along the text. This review concludes with future perspectives on the challenges to be addressed and potential research directions. We believe that this review will be helpful to readers and attract more scientists to join the topic of CO2 conversion.

In order to explore the catalytic effect of different Lewis acid sites (LASs) in the CO2 cycloaddition reaction, different secondary building units and N-rich organic ligand 4,4',4″-s-triazine-1,3,5-triyltri-p-aminobenzoate were assembled to construct six reported MOF materials: [Cu3(tatab)2(H2O)3]·8DMF·9H2O (1), [Cu3(tatab)2(H2O)3]·7.5H2O (2), [Zn4O(tatab)2]·3H2O·17DMF (3), [In3O(tatab)2(H2O)3](NO3)·15DMA (4), [Zr6O4(OH)7(tatab)(Htatab)3(H2O)3]·xGuest (5), and [Zr6O4(OH)4(tatab)4(H2O)3]·xGuest (6) (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide, and DMA = N,N-dimethylacetamide). Large pore sizes of compound 2 enhance the concentration of substrates, and the multi-active sites inside its framework synergistically promote the process of the CO2 cycloaddition reaction. Such advantages endow compound 2 with the best catalytic performance among the six compounds and surpass many of the reported MOF-based catalysts. Meanwhile, the comparison of the catalytic efficiency indicated that Cu-paddlewheel and Zn4O display better catalytic performances than In3O and Zr6 cluster. The experiments investigate the catalytic effects of LAS types and prove that it is feasible to improve CO2 fixation property by introducing multi-active sites into MOFs.

Abstract
CNTs/Fe-BTC composite materials were synthesized with the one-step solvothermal method. MWCNTs and SWCNTs were incorporated in situ during synthesis. The composite materials were characterized by different analytical techniques and used in the CO2-photocatalytic reduction to value-added products and clean fuels. In the incorporation of CNTs into Fe-BTC, better physical-chemical and optical properties were observed compared to Fe-BTC pristine. SEM images showed that CNTs were incorporated into the porous structure of Fe-BTC, indicating the synergy between them. Fe-BTC pristine showed to be selective to ethanol and methanol; although, it was more selective to ethanol. However, the incorporation of small amounts of CNTs into Fe-BTC not only showed higher production rates but changes in the selectivity compared with the Fe-BTC pristine were also observed. It is important to mention that the incorporation of CNTs into MOF Fe-BTC allowed for increasing the mobility of electrons, decreasing the recombination of charge carriers (electron/hole), and increasing the photocatalytic activity. In both reaction systems (batch and continuous), composite materials showed to be selective towards methanol and ethanol; however, in the continuous system, lower production rates were observed due to the decrease in the residence time compared to the batch system. Therefore, these composite materials are very promising systems to convert CO2 to clean fuels that could replace fossil fuels soon.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have become a promising support for different active sites to construct multifunctional and heterogeneous catalysts. However, the related investigation mainly focuses on introducing one or two active sites into MOFs and trifunctional catalysts have been very rarely reported. Herein, non-noble CuCo alloy nanoparticles, Pd2+, and l-proline, as encapsulated active species, functional organic linkers, and active metal nodes, respectively, were successfully decorated to UiO-67 to construct a chiral trifunctional catalyst by the one-step method, which was further applied to asymmetric three-step sequential oxidation of aromatic alcohols/Suzuki coupling/asymmetric aldol reactions with excellent oxidation and coupling performance (yields up to 95 and 96%, respectively), as well as good enantioselectivities (eeanti value up to 73%) in asymmetric aldol reactions. The heterogeneous catalyst can be reused at least five times without obvious deactivation due to the strong interaction between the MOFs and the active sites. This work provides an effective strategy to construct multifunctional catalysts via the introduction and combination of three or more of active sites, including encapsulated active species, functional organic linkers, and active metal nodes, into stable MOFs.

Abstract
A porous azo-functionalized organic polymer (JJU-2) was designed and prepared via oxidative coupling polymerization promoted by FeCl3. JJU-2 exhibited reversibly stimuli-responsive CO2 adsorption properties as a result of the trans/cis isomerization of the polymer’s azo-functionalized skeleton. Under UV irradiation and heat treatment, this porous material displayed various porous structures and CO2 adsorption properties. The initial Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of JJU-1 is 888 m2 g−1. After UV irradiation, the BET surface area decreases to 864 m2 g−1, along with the decrease of micropores around 0.50 nm and 1.27 nm during the trans-to-cis isomerization process. In addition, CO2 sorption isotherms demonstrate an 8%t decrease, and the calculated Qst of CO2 has decreased from 29.0 kJ mol−1 to 26.5 kJ mol−1 due to the trans to cis conversion of the azobenzene side group. It is noteworthy that JJU-2′s CO2 uptakes are nearly constant over three cycles of alternating external stimuli. Therefore, this azo-functionalized porous material was a potential carbon capture material that was responsive to stimuli.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive nanocarriers have the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment by allowing precise delivery of drugs to the site of disease. The use of polymeric nanocarriers with surfaces that respond to triggers such as pH, light, temperature, and redox potential enables targeted drug distribution. pH is a particularly useful tool, as the lower pH in tumour microenvironments can trigger changes in drug release. Recent advances in the development of pH-responsive polymer nanoparticles have shown great promise for improved in vivo drug delivery, reduced negative drug responses, and more precise drug distribution. A deeper understanding of these nanocarriers will allow us to overcome the challenges of targeted cancer treatment and create a better drug delivery system.
