Abstract
Prussian blue and Prussian blue analogues have attracted increasing attention as versatile framework materials with a wide range of applications in catalysis, energy conversion and storage, and biomedical and environmental fields. In terms of energy storage and conversion, Prussian blue-based materials have emerged as suitable candidates of growing interest for the fabrication of batteries and supercapacitors. Their outstanding electrochemical features such as fast charge-discharge rates, high capacity and prolonged cycling life make them favorable for energy storage application. Furthermore, Prussian blue and its analogues as rechargeable battery anodes can advance significantly by the precise control of their structure, morphology, and composition at the nanoscale. Their tunable structural and electronic properties enable the detection of many types of analytes with high sensitivity and specificity, and thus, they are ideal materials for the development of sensors for environmental detection, disease trend monitoring, and industrial safety. Additionally, Prussian blue-based catalysts display excellent photocatalytic performance for the degradation of pollutants and generation of hydrogen. Specifically, their excellent light capturing and charge separation capabilities make them stand out in photocatalytic processes, providing a sustainable option for environmental remediation and renewable energy production. Besides, Prussian blue coatings have been studied particularly for corrosion protection, forming stable and protective layers on metal surfaces, which extend the lifespan of infrastructural materials in harsh environments. Prussian blue and its analogues are highly valuable materials in healthcare fields such as imaging, drug delivery and theranostics because they are biocompatible and their further functionalization is possible. Overall, this review demonstrates that Prussian blue and related framework materials are versatile and capable of addressing many technical challenges in various fields ranging from power generation to healthcare and environmental management.

Abstract
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a necessary procedure in various devices including water splitting and rechargeable metal-air batteries but required a higher potential to improve oxygen evolution efficiency due to its slow reaction kinetics. In order to solve this problem, a heterostructured electrocatalyst (Co3O4@FeOx/CC) is synthesized by deposition of iron oxides (FeOx) on carbon cloth (CC) via plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition, then growth of the cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanosheet arrays. The deposition cycle of FeOxon the CC strongly influences thein situgrowth and distribution of Co3O4nanosheets and electronic conductivity of the electrocatalyst. Owing to the high accessible and electroactive areas and improved electrical conductivity, the free-standing electrode of Co3O4@FeOx/CC with 100 deposition cycles of FeOxexhibits excellent electrocatalytic performance for OER with a low overpotential of 314.0 mV at 10 mA cm-2and a small Tafel slope of 29.2 mV dec-1in alkaline solution, which is much better than that of Co3O4/CC (448 mV), and even commercial RuO2(380 mV). This design and optimization strategy shows a promising way to synthesize ideally designed catalytic architectures for application in energy storage and conversion.

Abstract
A cyano-bridged heterometallic coordination polymer with partial deficiencies of CN- ligands, [MnII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)], forms open metal sites both on MnII and FeII ions by liberation of monodentate ligands such as NH3 and H2O. [MnII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] exhibits high catalytic activity and selectivity of benzene oxygenation to phenol in the presence of m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid as an oxidant. The postcatalytic spectroscopy of [MnII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] and catalysis comparison with a physical mixture of [MnII(H2O)3]2[FeII(CN)6] and [Fe(H2O)3/2]4/3[Fe(CN)6], which has open metal sites on both MnII and Fe ions separately, indicated that the high activity resulted from high oxidation ability and phenol adsorption ability of FeII and MnII ions, respectively.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted considerable attention from researchers because of their distinct structures and characteristics, especially in maximizing atomic utilization and elevating the intrinsic catalytic activity. More recently, SACs have been becoming a burgeoning area of the environmental field and are extensively applied to remove various refractory organic pollutants. This review summarizes the emerging synthetic and characterization strategies of SACs and analyzes their development tendency. Besides, the application of SACs in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs, e.g., catalysis of H2O2, activation of persulfates and photocatalysis) is discussed. The excellent removal of pollutants depends on the fast generation of reactive oxygen species (SO4•-, •OH, 1O2, and O2•-). The advantages of SACs in AOPs are summarized, and constructive opinions are put forward for the stability and activity of the catalyst. Finally, the opportunities and challenges faced by SACs and its future development direction in the AOPs catalytic field are proposed.

Abstract
CN-deficient Prussian blue analogues (PBAs), [MN(H2O)x]y[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] (MN = CuII, CoII, or GaIII), were synthesized and examined as a new class of heterogeneous catalysts for hydrolytic decomposition of organophosphates often used as pesticides. The active species of the CN-deficient PBAs were mainly C-bound FeII ions with only single open sites generated by liberation of the NH3 ligand during the catalytic reactions. [CuII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] showed higher catalytic activity than [CoII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] and [GaIII(H2O)][FeII(CN)5(NH3)], although N-bound CuII species has been reported as less active than CoII and GaIII species in conventional PBAs. IR measurements of a series of the CN-deficient PBAs after the catalytic reactions clarified that a part of the NH3 ligands remained on [CoII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] and that hydrogen phosphate formed as a product strongly adsorbed on the FeII ions of [GaIII(H2O)][FeII(CN)5(NH3)]. Hydrogen phosphate also adsorbed, but weakly, on the FeII ions of [CuII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)]. These results suggest that heterogeneous catalysis of the FeII ions with single open sites were tuned by the MN ions through metal-metal interaction.

Abstract
The importance of advanced energy-conversion devices such as water electrolysis has manifested dramatically over the past few decades because it is the current mainstay for the generation of green energy. Anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting is one of the biggest obstacles because of its extremely high kinetic barrier. Conventional OER catalysts are mainly noble-metal oxides represented by IrO2 and RuO2, but these compounds tend to have poor sustainability. The attention on Prussian blue (PB) and its analogs (PBA) in the field of energy conversion systems was concentrated on their open-framework structure, as well as its varied composition comprised of Earth-abundant elements. The unique electronic structure of PBA enables its promising catalytic potential, and it can also be converted into many other talented compounds or structures as a precursor. This undoubtedly provides a new approach for the design of green OER catalysts. This article reviews the recent progress of the application of PBA and its derivatives in OER based on in-depth studies of characterization techniques. The structural design, synthetic strategy, and enhanced electrochemical properties are summarized to provide an outlook for its application in the field of OER. Moreover, due to the similarity of the reaction process of photo-driven electrolysis of water and the former one, the application of PBA in photoelectrolysis is also discussed.
