Abstract
Heteroatom-doped porous carbon-based materials with high surface area compared to their metal-based homologs are considered environmentally friendly and ideal catalysts for organic reactions. In this paper, a new method for the convenient fabrication, cost-effective, and high efficiency of nitrogen/selenium co-doped porous carbon-based catalysis (marked as N/SePC-T) was designed. The N/SePC-T catalysts were created from the direct pyrolysis of a eutectic solvent containing choline chloride/urea as the nitrogen-rich carbon source, selenium dioxide as a source of heteroatom and chitosan as a secondary carbon source in different temperatures (T). The efficacy of the carbonization temperature on the pore structure, morphology, and catalytic activity of the N/SePC-T materials was investigated and displayed, the N/SePC-900 (having a surface area of 562.01 m2/g and total pore volume of 0.2351 cm3 g-1) has the best performance. The morphology, structure, and physicochemical properties of N/SePC-900 were characterized using various analyses including XRD, TEM, TGA, FE-SEM, EDX, FT-IR, XPS, and Raman. The optimized N/SePC-900 catalyst indicated excellent catalytic performance in the oxidation of benzylalcohols to corresponding aldehydes in very mild conditions.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with active metals dispersed atomically have shown great potential in heterogeneous catalysis due to the high atomic utilization and superior selectivity/stability. Synthesis of SACs using carbon-neutral biomass and its components as the feedstocks provides a promising strategy to realize the sustainable and cost-effective SACs preparation as well as the valorization of underused biomass resources. Herein, we begin by describing the general background and status quo of carbon-based SACs derived from biomass. A detailed enumeration of the common biomass feedstocks (e.g., lignin, cellulose, chitosan, etc.) for the SACs preparation is then offered. The interactions between metal atoms and biomass-derived carbon carriers are summarized to give general rules on how to stabilize the atomic metal centers and rationalize porous carbon structures. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of catalysts in diverse domains (e.g., chemocatalysis, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis, etc.) is comprehensively introduced. The structure-property relationships and the underlying catalytic mechanisms are also addressed, including the influences of metal sites on the activity and stability, and the impact of the unique structure of single-atom centers modulated by metal/biomass feedstocks interactions on catalytic activity and selectivity. Finally, we end this review with a look into the remaining challenges and future perspectives of biomass-based SACs. We expect to shed some light on the forthcoming research of carbon-based SACs derived from biomass, manifestly stimulating the development in this emerging research area.

Abstract
Synthesis and manufacturing of metal-organic framework derived carbon/metal oxide nanomaterials with an advisable porous structure and composition are essential as catalysts in various organic transformation processes for the preparation of environmentally friendly catalysts. In this work, we report a scalable synthesis of sulfur-doped porous carbon-containing copper oxide nanoparticles (marked CuxO@CS-400) via direct pyrolysis of a mixture of metal-organic framework precursor called HKUST-1 and diphenyl disulfide for aromatic nitro compounds reduction. X-ray diffraction, surface area analysis (BET), X-ray energy diffraction (EDX) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, elemental mapping, infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscope, and scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) analysis were accomplished to acknowledge and investigate the effect of S and CuxO as active sites in heterogeneous catalyst to perform the reduction-nitro aromatic compounds reaction in the presence of CuxO@CS-400 as an effective heterogeneous catalyst. The studies showed that doping sulfur in the resulting carbon/metal oxide substrate increased the catalytic activity compared to the material without sulfur doping.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 259:129093.

Abstract
MOF-derived heteroatom-doped mesoporous carbons have gained the significant consideration in heterogenous catalytic reactions because of their multipurpose features. Especially, the high Specific Surface Area (SSA) of these materials provides abundant activated sites for the catalytic reactions, while the mesoporous structure allows for the effective mass transfer, enhancing the overall capability of the catalytic process. Herein, the efficient NiO/CN-T (T referred to the pyrolysis temperature) was prepared by facile pyrolysis of MOF/CS composite (Ni-MOF (74), Chitosan) in the presence of excess amount of starch as the carbon precursor. The NiO/CN-T as heterogenous catalyst has desired SSA varied from 1094 to 491 m2.g-1. The optimized catalyst (NiO/CN-600) possesses the superior catalytic activity toward the oxidation of the BnOHs due to its high SSA (1094 m2.g-1), which can notably rectify the mass transfer proficiency. Additionally, the NiO/CN-600 heterogenous catalyst also represents the acceptable chemical stability. So, it was demonstrated that such an innovative strategy can provide several versatile tunability insights for the preparation of MOF/biopolymer-derived heterogenous catalysts.

Abstract
Adsorptive desulfurization of light fuels is sustainable due to its ambient operation and reusability of exhausted adsorbents. In this study, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide [HEMIM][DCA] IL was synthesized and utilized to modify N-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to produce N-CNT/[HEMIM][DCA] as a green hybrid adsorbent. The adsorbent was characterized using XRD, FE-SEM, FTIR, BET, and TGA. It was indicated that the N-CNT treatment with [HEMIM][DCA] IL resulted in decreased crystallinity with the cubic and rod-shaped morphology and harsh surfaces and curved edges. The absence of shifts or variations in FTIR peaks of starting materials and N-CNT/[HEMIM][DCA] suggested that neither component was affected by chemical interactions. The adsorption capacity of N-CNT and N-CNT/[HEMIM][DCA] was 54.3 mg/g and for 83.6 mg/g for 50 ppm BT, respectively. Saturated with BT, the adsorbent's performance was decreased at high BT concentrations. The adsorption isotherms provided an understanding of interactions of BT with sorbent surface which follows the Langmuir model for N-CNT/[HEMIM][DCA] and N-CNT. The kinetics of BT adsorption on N-CNT/[HEMIM][DCA] was fitted with second-order kinetic model with the decreased adsorption ratio over time due to pore saturation. 25 % reduction of the adsorption capacity was obtained after two recycling cycles of the adsorbent (62.5 mg/g). N-CNT/[HEMIM][DCA] showed good recyclability and potential as a promising BT adsorbent.

Abstract
In this study, a novel heterogeneous catalyst (Fe3O4@β-CD@Pd) has been developed by the deposition of palladium nanoparticles on the β-cyclodextrin-functionalized surface of magnetic Fe3O4. The catalyst was prepared by a simple chemical co-precipitation method and characterized extensively by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) analyses. Herein, the applicability of the prepared material was evaluated for the catalytic reduction of environmentally toxic nitroarenes to the corresponding anilines. The catalyst Fe3O4@β-CD@Pd showed excellent efficiency for the reduction of nitroarenes in water under mild conditions. A low catalyst loading of 0.3 mol % Pd is found to be efficient for reducing nitroarenes in excellent to good (99-95%) yields along with high TON values (up to 330). Nevertheless, the catalyst was recycled and reused up to the 5th cycle of reduction of nitroarene without any loss of significant catalytic activity.

Abstract
Design and preparation of low-cost, effective, and novel catalysts are important topics in the field of heterogeneous catalysis from academic and industrial perspectives. Recently, heteroatom-doped porous carbon/metal materials have received significant attention as promising catalysts in divergent organic reactions. Incorporation of heteroatom into the carbon framework can tailor the properties of carbon, providing suitable interaction between support and metal, resulting in superior catalytic performance compared with those of traditional pure carbon/metal catalytic systems. In this review, we try to underscore the recent advances in the design, preparation, and application of heteroatom-doped porous carbon/metal catalysts towards various organic transformations.
