Abstract
Conventional catalyst preparative methods commonly entail the impregnation, precipitation, and/or immobilization of nanoparticles on their supports. While convenient, such methods do not readily afford the ability to control collective ensemble-like nanoparticle properties, such as nanoparticle proximity, placement, and compartmentalization. In this Perspective, we illustrate how incorporating colloidal templating into catalyst design for thermocatalysis confers synthetic advantages to facilitate new catalytic investigations and augment catalytic performance, focusing on three colloid-templated catalyst structures: 3D macroporous structures, hierarchical macro-mesoporous structures, and discrete hollow nanoreactors. We outline how colloidal templating decouples the nanoparticle and support formation steps to devise modular catalyst platforms that can be flexibly tuned at different length scales. Of particular interest is the raspberry colloid templating (RCT) method which confers high thermomechanical stability by partially embedding nanoparticles within its support, while retaining high levels of reactant accessibility. We illustrate how the high modularity of the RCT approach allows one to independently control collective nanoparticle properties, such as nanoparticle proximity and localization, without concomitant changes to other catalytic descriptors that would otherwise confound analyses of their catalytic performance. We next discuss how colloidal templating can be employed to achieve spatially disparate active site functionalization while directing reactant transport within the catalyst structure to enhance selectivity in multistep catalytic cascades. Throughout this Perspective, we highlight developments in advanced characterization that interrogate transport phenomena and/or derive new insights into these catalyst structures. Finally, we offer our outlook on the future roles, applications, and challenges of colloidal templating in catalyst design for thermocatalysis.

Abstract
Nanoparticle (NP) size and proximity are two physical descriptors applicable to practically all NP-supported catalysts. However, with conventional catalyst design, independent variation of these descriptors to investigate their individual effects on thermocatalysis remains challenging. Using a raspberry-colloid-templating approach, we synthesized a well-defined catalyst series comprising Pd12Au88 alloy NPs of three distinct sizes and at two different interparticle distances. We show that NP size and interparticle distance independently control activity and selectivity, respectively, in the hydrogenation of benzaldehyde to benzyl alcohol and toluene. Surface-sensitive spectroscopic analysis indicates that the surfaces of smaller NPs expose a greater fraction of reactive Pd dimers, compared to inactive Pd single atoms, thereby increasing intrinsic catalytic activity. Computational simulations reveal how a larger interparticle distance improves catalytic selectivity by diminishing the local benzyl alcohol concentration profile between NPs, thus suppressing its readsorption and consequently, undesired formation of toluene. Accordingly, benzyl alcohol yield is maximized using catalysts with smaller NPs separated by larger interparticle distances, overcoming activity-selectivity trade-offs. This work exemplifies the high suitability of the modular raspberry-colloid-templating method as a model catalyst platform to isolate individual descriptors and establish clear structure-property relationships, thereby bridging the materials gap between surface science and technical catalysts.

Abstract
Achieving selective hydrodeoxygenation of α, β-unsaturated carbonyl groups to alkenes poses a substantial challenge due to the presence of multiple functional groups. In this study, we develop a ZnNC-X catalyst (X represents the calcination temperature) that incorporates both Lewis acidic-basic sites and Zn-Nx sites to address this challenge. Among the catalyst variants, ZnNC-900 catalyst exhibits impressive selectivity for alkenes in the hydrodeoxygenation of α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, achieving up to 94.8% selectivity. Through comprehensive mechanism investigations and catalyst characterization, we identify the Lewis acidic-basic sites as responsible for the selective hydrogenation of C=O bonds, while the Zn-Nx sites facilitate the subsequent selective hydrodeoxygenation step. Furthermore, ZnNC-900 catalyst displays broad applicability across a diverse range of unsaturated carbonyl compounds. These findings not only offer valuable insights into the design of effective catalysts for controlling alkene selectivity but also extend the scope of sustainable transformations in synthetic chemistry.

Abstract
5-hydroxymethylfurfural represents a key chemical in the drive towards a sustainable circular economy within the chemical industry. The final step in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural production is the acid catalysed dehydration of fructose, for which supported organoacids are excellent potential catalyst candidates. Here we report a range of solid acid catalysis based on sulphonic acid grafted onto different porous silica nanosphere architectures, as confirmed by TEM, N2 porosimetry, XPS and ATR-IR. All four catalysts display enhanced active site normalised activity and productivity, relative to alternative silica supported equivalent systems in the literature, with in-pore diffusion of both substrate and product key to both performance and humin formation pathway. An increase in-pore diffusion coefficient of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural within wormlike and stellate structures results in optimal productivity. In contrast, poor diffusion within a raspberry-like morphology decreases rates of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural production and increases its consumption within humin formation.

Abstract
The ability of Janus nanoparticles to establish biological logic systems has been widely exploited, yet conventional non/uni-porous Janus nanoparticles are unable to fully mimic biological communications. Here we demonstrate an emulsion-oriented assembly approach for the fabrication of highly uniform Janus double-spherical MSN&mPDA (MSN, mesoporous silica nanoparticle; mPDA, mesoporous polydopamine) nanoparticles. The delicate Janus nanoparticle possesses a spherical MSN with a diameter of ~150 nm and an mPDA hemisphere with a diameter of ~120 nm. In addition, the mesopore size in the MSN compartment is tunable from ~3 to ~25 nm, while those in the mPDA compartments range from ~5 to ~50 nm. Due to the different chemical properties and mesopore sizes in the two compartments, we achieve selective loading of guests in different compartments, and successfully establish single-particle-level biological logic gates. The dual-mesoporous structure enables consecutive valve-opening and matter-releasing reactions within one single nanoparticle, facilitating the design of single-particle-level logic systems.

Abstract
In tandem catalytic systems, controlling the reaction steps and side reactions is extremely challenging. Here, we demonstrate a nanoreactor platform comprising magnetic- and plasmonic-coupled catalytic modules that synchronizes reaction steps at unconnected neighboring reaction sites via decoupled nanolocalized energy harvested using distinct antennae reactors while minimizing the interconflicting effects. As was desired, the course of the reaction and product yields can be controlled by a convenient remote operation of alternating magnetic field (AMF) and near-infrared light (NIR). Following this strategy, a tandem reaction involving [Pd]-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura C-C cross-coupling and [Pt]-catalyzed aerobic alcohol oxidation enabled an excellent yield of cinnamaldehyde (ca. 95%) by overcoming the risk of side reactions. The customization scope for using different catalytic metals (Pt, Pd, Ru, and Rh) with in situ control over product release through remotely operable benign energy sources opens avenues for designing diverse catalytic schemes for targeted applications.

Abstract
ConspectusBiominerals are unique materials found in many living organisms that often display outstanding functionalities attributed to their mesocrystalline structure. Mesocrystals are nanocrystal superstructures with mutual crystallographic alignment of the building units. One could thus imagine these optimized evolutionary systems as archetypes to fabricate advanced materials. The main advantage of such systems relies on their ability to combine the features of the nanocrystals with those of single crystalline microscopic structures, yielding assemblies with directional, enhanced, and potentially emergent properties. Moreover, fueled by the promises of multifunctional materials with unprecedented and tunable properties, the rational design of mesocrystals assembled from two distinct colloidal nanocrystal ensembles has become a recent focus of research. However, the combination of dissimilar nanocrystals into ordered binary superstructures is still a major scientific challenge due to the nature of the coassembly process.We focus this Account on the growth of tridimensional (3D) binary mesocrystals and the understanding of the self-assembly of two colloidal nanocrystal ensembles with the ultimate goal to serve as a basis for more rational mesocrystal syntheses in the future. The formation of mesocrystals demands nanocrystals with defined surface faceting, the primary factor influencing their oriented self-assembly. Notably, such a process cannot be successfully afforded without functionalized nanocrystals with high and, in many cases, tunable colloidal stability. Besides, the nature and solvation degree of the surface ligand shell influences the effective shape of the nanocrystals and the kinetics of self-assembly. If the assembly is triggered by reducing the colloidal stability with nonsolvents, 3D single-component mesocrystals are often grown. Here, the different magnitude of the van der Waals attraction forces between nanocrystals with differing compositions, dimensions, and morphologies generally favors the segregation and growth of single component mesocrystals. This phenomenon was illustrated during the successful preparation of 3D binary mesocrystals composed of iron oxide and platinum nanocubes. Although the building blocks possessed comparable sizes and were stabilized by similar ligands, the amount of the second component could only be arbitrarily tuned up to some extent, even when the assembly conditions were rationally optimized to achieve 3D binary mesocrystals. Only a small amount of it was effectively incorporated into the matrix of the initial mesocrystal. The 3D binary mesocrystal growth process demands a delicate control over the size, shape, and surface chemistry of the nanocrystals, the solvent nature, and the self-assembly process. Hence, the improvement of our ability to control the synthesis of 3D binary mesocrystalline materials is critical to exploit their potential toward technological applications in catalysis, energy storage, or structural materials.

Abstract
Metal-zeolite composites with metal (oxide) and acid sites are promising catalysts for integrating multiple reactions in tandem to produce a wide variety of wanted products without separating or purifying the intermediates. However, the conventional design of such materials often leads to uncontrolled and non-ideal spatial distributions of the metal inside/on the zeolites, limiting their catalytic performance. Here we demonstrate a simple strategy for synthesizing double-shelled, contiguous metal oxide@zeolite hollow spheres (denoted as MO@ZEO DSHSs) with controllable structural parameters and chemical compositions. This involves the self-assembly of zeolite nanocrystals onto the surface of metal ion-containing carbon spheres followed by calcination and zeolite growth steps. The step-by-step formation mechanism of the material is revealed using mainly in situ Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction and ex situ electron microscopy. We demonstrate that it is due to this structure that an Fe2O3@H-ZSM-5 DSHSs-showcase catalyst exhibits superior performance compared with various conventionally structured Fe2O3-H-ZSM-5 catalysts in gasoline production by the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. This work is expected to advance the rational synthesis and research of hierarchically hollow, core-shell, multifunctional catalyst materials.

Abstract
The construction of hierarchically nanoporous composite for high-performance catalytic application is still challenging. In this work, a series of host-in-host ionic porous materials are crafted by encapsulating ionic organic cages into a hyper-crosslinked, oppositely charged porous poly(ionic liquid) (PoPIL) through an ion pair-directed assembly strategy. Specifically, the cationic cage (C-Cage) as the inner host can spatially accommodate a functional Au cluster, forming a [Au⊂C-Cage+]⊂PoPIL− supramolecular composite. This dual-host molecular hierarchy enables a charge-selective substrate sorting effect to the Au clusters, which amplifies their catalytic activity by at least one order of magnitude as compared to Au confined only by C-Cage as the mono-host (Au⊂C-Cage+). Moreover, we demonstrate that such dual-host porous system can advantageously immobilize electrostatically repulsive Au⊂C-Cage+ and cationic ferrocene co-catalyst (Fer+) together into the same microcompartments, and synergistically speed up the enzyme-like tandem reactions by channelling the substrate to the catalytic centers via nanoconfinement. The encapsulation of catalysts within hosts is a strategy to tune their reactivity. Here, the authors encapsulate a gold cluster within a porous cage and study its reactivity.

Abstract
Surpassing natural enzymes in cost, stability and mass production, nanozymes have attracted wide attention in fields from disease diagnosis to tumor therapy. However, nanozymes intrinsically have low reaction selectivity, which significantly restricts their applications. A general method is reported to address this challenge by following a biomimetic operation principle of substrates channeling and screening. Two oxidase- and peroxidase-like nanozymes (i.e., emerging N-doped carbon nanocages and Prussian blue nanoparticles), were cascaded as a proof of concept to improve the reaction selectivity in transforming the substrate into the targeted product by more than 2000 times. The cascaded nanozymes were also adopted to a spatially confined microfluidic device, leading to more than 100-fold enhancement of the reaction efficiency due to signal amplification.

Abstract
Organelles are responsible for the efficient storage and transport of substances in living systems. A myriad of extracellular vesicles (EVs) acts as a bridge to exchange signaling molecules in cell–cell communication, and the highly dynamic tubulins and actins contribute to efficient intracellular substance transport. The inexhaustible cues of natural cargo delivery by organelles inspire researchers to explore the construction of biomimetic architectures for “smart” delivery carriers. Herein, we report a 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT)-peptide conjugate HpYss that simulates the artificial EV-to-filament transformation process for precise liver cancer therapy. Under the sequential stimulus of extracellular alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and intracellular glutathione (GSH), HpYss proceeds via tandem self-assembly with a morphological transformation from nanoparticles to nanofibers. The experimental phase diagram elucidates the influence of ALP and GSH contents on the self-assembled nanostructures. In addition, the dynamic transformation of organelle-mimetic architectures that are formed by HpYss in HepG2 cells enables the efficient delivery of the anticancer drug HCPT to the nucleus, and the size–shape change from extracellular nanoparticles (50–100 nm) to intracellular nanofibers (4–9 nm) is verified to be of key importance for nuclear delivery. Nuclear targeting of HpYss amplifies apoptosis, thus significantly enhancing the inhibitory effect of HCPT (>10-fold) to HepG2 cells. Benefitting from the spatiotemporally controlled nanostructures, HpYss exhibited deep penetration, enhanced accumulation, and long-term retention in multicellular spheroid and xenograft models, potently abolishing liver tumor growth and preventing lung metastasis. We envision that our organelle-mimicking delivery strategy provides a novel paradigm for designing nanomedicine to cancer therapy. An organelle-inspired nanomedicine for precise liver cancer therapy is proposed. The delivery process mimics the transport of extracellular vesicles and filaments. The extra- and intracellular tandem self-assembly influence the nanostructures. The dynamic size–shape change of nanomedicine actuates the nuclear delivery. Spatiotemporally controlled nanomedicine abolishes liver tumor growth and lung metastasis.

Abstract
Tandem catalysts with multifunctional sites can achieve high-efficiency catalytic transformations for quickly converting simple raw materials into complex value-added products. The integration of highly active species of metal nanoparticles (NPs) and single-atom catalytic sites (SACs) into one tandem system promises to synthesize an ideal bifunctional catalyst on account of the synergistic effect between NPs and SACs. However, such ideas face some challenges as deactivation or loss of active species, and low efficiency or side reactions caused by the disorder of different active species. Herein, a double-shell microencapsulated nanoreactor was fabricated as a bifunctional catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of cyclic carbonates from olefins. The microcapsules consist of an inner shell of nitrogen-doped porous carbon rich in Zn SACs, an outer shell of mesoporous SiO2, and Au NPs confined between the outer and inner shells, noted as Zn-N-C/Au@mSiO2. Particularly, two active species are spatially compartmented within microcapsules. Furthermore, the catalyst was applied in the one-pot synthesis of styrene carbonate from styrene with CO2 under normal pressure and showed admirable performance. The yield of cyclic carbonate reached 92.9% at 93.2% olefins conversion. Furthermore, the catalyst shows good reusability with little loss of catalytic performance (4.0%) even after using it 15 consecutive times. The unique structure used in this work can rationally integrate diverse catalytic species into one system and offering adequate protection, which provides an effective strategy for the development of multi-site catalysts.

Abstract
Biocatalysis is a useful strategy for sustainable green synthesis of fine chemicals due to its high catalytic rate, reaction specificity, and operation under ambient conditions. Addressable immobilization of enzymes onto solid supports for one-pot multistep biocatalysis, however, remains a major challenge. In natural pathways, enzymes are spatially coupled to prevent side reactions, eradicate inhibitory products, and channel metabolites sequentially from one enzyme to another. Construction of a modular immobilization platform enabling spatially directed assembly of multiple biocatalysts would, therefore, not only allow the development of high-efficiency bioreactors but also provide novel synthetic routes for chemical synthesis. In this study, we developed a modular cascade flow reactor using a generalizable solid-binding peptide-directed immobilization strategy that allows selective immobilization of fusion enzymes on anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) monoliths with high positional precision. Here, the lactate dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase enzymes were fused with substrate-specific peptides to facilitate their self-immobilization through the membrane channels in cascade geometry. Using this cascade model, two-step biocatalytic production of l-lactate is demonstrated with concomitant regeneration of soluble nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). Both fusion enzymes retained their catalytic activity upon immobilization, suggesting their optimal display on the support surface. The 85% cascading reaction efficiency was achieved at a flow rate that kinetically matches the residence time of the slowest enzyme. In addition, 84% of initial catalytic activity was preserved after 10 days of continuous operation at room temperature. The peptide-directed modular approach described herein is a highly effective strategy to control surface orientation, spatial localization, and loading of multiple enzymes on solid supports. The implications of this work provide insight for the single-step construction of high-power cascadic devices by enabling co-expression, purification, and immobilization of a variety of engineered fusion enzymes on patterned surfaces.

Abstract
This study developed a cost-efficient hydration/asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) process for the one-pot synthesis of valuable chiral alcohols from alkynes. During this process, the initial homogeneous cobaloxime-catalyzed hydration of alkynes was followed by heterogeneous Ru/diamine-catalyzed ATH transformation of the in-situ generated ketones, which provided varieties of chiral alcohols in good yields with up to 99% ee values. The immobilized Ru/diamine catalyst could be recycled at least three times before its deactivation in the sequential reaction system. This work shows a general method for developing one-pot asymmetric sequential catalysis towards sustainable organic synthesis.

Abstract
Controlling localization of multiple metal nanoparticles on a single support is at the cutting edge of designing cascade catalysts, but is still a scientific and technological challenge because of the lack of nanostructured materials that can not only host metal nanoparticles in different sub-compartments but also enable efficient molecular transport between different metals. Herein we report a multicompartmentalized mesoporous organosilica with spatially separated sub-compartments that are connected by short nanochannels. Such a unique structure allows co-localization of Ru and Pd nanoparticles in a nanoscale proximal fashion. The so designed cascade catalyst exhibits an order of magnitude activity enhancement in the sequential hydrogenation of nitroarenes to cyclohexylamines compared with its mono/bi-metallic counterparts. Crucially, an interesting phenomenon of neighboring metal-assisted hydrogenation via hydrogen spillover is observed, contributing to the significant enhancement in catalytic efficiency. The multicompartmentalized architectures along with the revealed mechanism of accelerated hydrogenation provide vast opportunity for designing efficient cascade catalysts.

Abstract
Modern technology has perfected the synthesis of catalysts such as zeolites and mesoporous silicas using organic structure directing agents (SDA) and their industrial use to catalyze a large variety of organic reactions within their pores. We suggest that early in prebiotic evolution, synergistic interplay arose between organic species in aqueous solution and silica formed from rocks by dynamic dissolution-recrystallization. The natural organics, for example, amino acids, small peptides, and fatty acids, acted as SDA for assembly of functional porous silica structures that induced further polymerization of amino acids and peptides, as well as other organic reactions. Positive feedback between synthesis and catalysis in the silica-organic system may have accelerated the early stages of abiotic evolution by increasing the formation of polymerized species.

Abstract
One of the central aims of synthetic biology and metabolic engineering is to mimic the integrality of eukaryotic cells to construct a multifunctional compartment system to perform multistep incompatible cascade reactions in a one-pot, controlled, and selective fashion. The key challenge is how to address the coexistence of antagonistic reagents and to incorporate these functionalities into an integrated system in a smart and efficient way. A novel strategy called "iterative etching-grafting" is proposed here based on monodispersed photonic spheres (PSs) prepared by microfluidics, which constructs a universal platform for incompatible cascade reactions. As a proof of concept, we spatiotemporally regulated the degree of etching of PSs, then grafted precursory groups of acid and base onto PSs, and incorporated a photocleavage method, which were capable of compartmentalizing the acid and base inside PSs. Utilizing the band-gap offsets of PSs could track the progress of cascade reactions in situ, and grafting various charged polymers on the surface of the pores by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) achieved the selectivity of the substrates, which flexibly constructed a multifunctional and integrated acid-base photonic multicompartment system (PMCS). The created PMCS shows excellent catalytic performance, convenient monitoring, and efficient substrate selectivity in the deacetalization-Knoevenagel cascade reaction. Furthermore, two types of electrophile/nucleophile PMCSs have also been accessibly constructed, demonstrating the facile generation of other incompatible systems with the versatility as well as the advancement and extensibility of the developed strategy.

Abstract
AbstractThe influence of complementary macropores, present in hierarchical macroporous mesoporous SBA-15, on the performance of supported Ni nanoparticles for ethanol steam reforming has been investigated. The increased open nature of the architecture, afforded through the incorporation of the secondary macropore network, enables superior metal dispersion. This, in turn, enhances catalytic hydrogen production performance through the generation of a greater density of active sites.

Abstract
Here, we propose a simple approach for the design of highly porous multicomponent heterostructures by infiltration of block-co-polymer templates with inorganic precursors in swelling solvents followed by gas-phase sequential infiltration synthesis and thermal annealing. This approach can prepare conformal coatings, free-standing membranes, and powders consisting of uniformly sized metal or metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) well dispersed in a porous oxide matrix. We employed this new, versatile synthetic concept to synthesize catalytically active heterostructures of uniformly dispersed ∼4.3 nm PdO nanoparticles accessible through three-dimensional pore networks of the alumina support. Importantly, such materials reveal high resistance against sintering at 800 °C, even at relatively high loadings of NPs (∼10 wt %). At the same time, such heterostructures enable high mass transport due to highly interconnected nature of the pores. The surface of synthesized nanoparticles in the porous matrix is highly accessible, which enables their good catalytic performance in methane and carbon monoxide oxidation. In addition, we demonstrate that this approach can be utilized to synthesize heterostructures consisting of different types of NPs on a highly porous support. Our results show that swelling-based infiltration provides a promising route toward the robust and scalable synthesis of multicomponent structures.

Abstract
Multifunctionalized porous catalytic nanoarchitectures are highly desirable for a variety of chemical transformations; however, selective installation of different catalysts with spatial and functional precision working synergistically and predictably, is highly challenging. Here, a synthetic strategy is developed toward the customizable combination of orthogonally reactive metal nanocrystals within interconnected carbon-cavities as a compartmentalized framework by employing aminated-silica-directed thermal solid-state nanoconfined synthesis of metal nanocrystals and endotemplating concomitant carbonization-mediated interlocking, as key processes. The main advantage of the strategy is the facility to choose any combination of metals, which can be further employed according to the desired application. The strategically synthesized compartmentalized multifunctional catalytic architectures of Pd-Pt@Com-CF regulate the O2 -mediated selective cascade oxidation reaction converting alcohol to acid with high yield and selectivity; and another Pt-Ir@Com-CF platform is demonstrated as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction/evolution reactions.

Abstract
This paper describes the self-assembled fabrication of single-crystal GaN with a bimodal pore (meso/macropore) size distribution (BiPS-GaN). A 4.7 μm-thick BiPS-GaN layer was grown spontaneously using halogen-free vapor phase epitaxy in conjunction with boron impurity doping (>1 × 1019 atoms/cm3) on a GaN template fabricated via metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD-GaN). The boron impurity acted as a surfactant, and its segregation generated a dense (>1 × 1010 cm-2), homogeneous distribution of mesopores with sizes of 30-40 nm in GaN during growth. In addition, macropores with sizes of 0.1-2 μm were produced by the fusion of mesopores in close proximity to one another. As a result, BiPS-GaN exhibited a high density of both meso- and macropores, all aligned in the vertical direction (that is, along the c axis). BiPS-GaN showed good electroconductivity and almost the same high degree of crystallinity as the MOCVD-GaN template. Furthermore, the hybrid meso/macropore structure of BiPS-GaN imparted excellent photoabsorption properties and allowed this material to work as an efficient support for a nanosized IrO x catalyst. The photocurrent density in BiPS-GaN was enhanced by as much as a factor of 5 compared to planar GaN by effective absorption due to the hybrid meso/macropore structure of BiPS-GaN. Moreover, the oxygen generation efficiency of BiPS-GaN with the IrO x catalyst was approximately doubled, compared to that of BiPS-GaN without IrO x, while maintaining long-term stability. These results demonstrate that BiPS-GaN fabricated in this facile manner has significant potential in applications such as photoelectrochemical reactions and catalysis.

Abstract
The catalytic deoxygenation of bio-based feedstocks to fuels and chemicals presents new challenges to the catalytic scientist, with many transformations either performed in or liberating water as a byproduct during reaction. The design of catalysts with tunable hydrophobicity to aid product and reactant adsorption or desorption, respectively, is vital for processes including (trans)esterification and condensation reactions employed in sustainable biodiesel production and bio-oil upgrading processes. Increasing surface hydrophobicity of catalyst materials offers a means to displace water from the catalyst active site, and minimizes potential deactivation or hydrolysis side reactions. Hybrid organic⁻inorganic porous solids offer exciting opportunities to tune surface polarity and hydrophobicity, as well as critical parameters in controlling adsorption, reactant activation, and product selectivity in liquid and vapor phase catalysis. Here, we review advances in the synthesis and application of sulfonic-acid-functionalized periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMO) as tunable hydrophobic solid acid catalysts in reactions relevant to biorefining and biofuel production.

Abstract
Nature generates densely packed micro- and nanostructures to enable key functionalities in cells, tissues, and other materials. Current fabrication techniques, due to limitations in resolution and speed, are far less effective at creating microstructures. Yet, the development of extensive amounts of surface area per unit volume will enable applications and manufacturing strategies not possible today. Here, we introduce chaotic printing-the use of chaotic flows for the rapid generation of complex, high-resolution microstructures. A simple and deterministic chaotic flow is induced in a viscous liquid, and its repeated stretching and folding action deforms an "ink" (i.e., a drop of a miscible liquid, fluorescent beads, or cells) at an exponential rate to render a densely packed lamellar microstructure that is then preserved by curing or photocrosslinking. This exponentially fast creation of fine microstructures exceeds the limits of resolution and speed of the currently available 3D printing techniques. Moreover, we show that the architecture of the microstructure to be created with chaotic printing can be predicted by mathematical modelling. We envision diverse applications for this technology, including the development of densely packed catalytic surfaces and highly complex multi-lamellar and multi-component tissue-like structures for biomedical and electronics applications.

Abstract
A novel disconnection based on cross-coupling chemistry was designed to access pharmaceutically relevant aryl-aminoethyl ethers. The developed palladium-catalyzed functionalization of aryl- and heteroaryl chlorides with a sodium tetrakis-(2-chloroethoxy) borate salt is orthogonal to the simple nucleophilic replacement of the chloro function of the ethylene linker. The transformation enables efficient 2-chloroethoxylation in the absence of an additional external base. Subsequent amine substitution of the alkyl halide affords 2-aminoethoxy arenes. The applicability of this method was demonstrated through the synthesis of various aryl- and heteroaryl-alkyl ethers, including the intermediates of marketed drug molecules.

Abstract
Inorganic microstructured materials are ubiquitous in nature. However, their formation in artificial self-assembly systems is challenging as it involves a complex interplay of competing forces during and after assembly. For example, colloidal assembly requires fine-tuning of factors such as the size and surface charge of the particles and electrolyte strength of the solvent to enable successful self-assembly and minimize crack formation. Co-assembly of templating colloidal particles together with a sol-gel matrix precursor material helps to release stresses that accumulate during drying and solidification, as previously shown for the formation of high-quality inverse opal (IO) films out of amorphous silica. Expanding this methodology to crystalline materials would result in microscale architectures with enhanced photonic, electronic, and catalytic properties. This work describes tailoring the crystallinity of metal oxide precursors that enable the formation of highly ordered, large-area (mm2 ) crack-free titania, zirconia, and alumina IO films. The same bioinspired approach can be applied to other crystalline materials as well as structures beyond IOs.

Abstract
Porous architectures play an important role in various applications of inorganic materials. Several attempts to develop mesoporous materials with controlled macrostructures have been reported, but they usually require complicated multiple-step procedures, which limits their versatility and suitability for mass production. Here, a simple approach for controlling the macrostructures of mesoporous materials, without templates for the macropores, is reported. The controlled solvent evaporation induces both macrophase separation via spinodal decomposition and mesophase separation via block copolymer self-assembly, leading to the formation of hierarchically porous metal oxides with periodic macro/mesostructures. In addition, using this method, macrostructures of mesoporous metal oxides are controlled into spheres and mesoporous powders containing isolated macropores. Nanocomputed tomography, focused ion beam milling, and electron microscopy confirm well-defined macrostructures containing mesopores. Among the various porous structures, hierarchically macro/mesoporous metal oxide is employed as an anode material in lithium-ion batteries. The present approach could provide a broad and easily accessible platform for the manufacturing of mesoporous inorganic materials with different macrostructures.
