Abstract
The field of intermetallic catalysts, alloying a p-block and a transition metal to form a pM-TM bimetallic alloy, is experiencing robust growth, emerging as a vibrant frontier in catalysis research. Although such materials are increasingly used in the form of nanoparticles, a precise description of their atomic arrangements at the nanoscale remains scarce. Based on the In-Pd binary as a typical pM-TM system, we performed density functional theory calculations to investigate the morphologies, relative stabilities and electronic properties of 24 Å and 36 Å nanoparticles built from the In3Pd2, InPd and InPd3 compounds. Wulff equilibrium structures are compared to other ordered and disordered structures. Surface energies are computed to discuss their thermodynamic stability, while work functions are calculated to examine their electronic structures. For any compound, increasing the size leads to the stabilisation of Wulff polyhedra, which are found to offer smaller surface energies than non-crystalline and chemically disordered structures. Disordered In3Pd2 and InPd nanoparticles show a tendency towards amorphisation, owing to repulsive short In-In bonds. Tuning nanoparticles' work functions can be achieved through the control of the surface structure and composition, by virtue of the roughly linear correlation found between the surface composition and the work function which nevertheless includes a certain number of outliers. This work paves the way to rationalisation of both structural and electronic properties of pM-TM nanoparticles.

Abstract
Manganese complexes [(arene)Mn(CO)3]+ were prepared in one step from arenes and Mn(CO)5Br. They were found to be efficient catalysts in the carbonyl cyanation with TMSCN, CO2 fixation by epoxides, and direct reductive amination in the presence of syngas. The amination reaction tolerated various reducible functional groups. The synergy of carbon monoxide and hydrogen in syngas provides high efficiency of the catalytic system. The developed protocols do not require an inert atmosphere, and the catalysts can be handled in air.

Abstract
Understanding the nucleation and growth mechanism of 3d transition bimetallic nanocrystals (NCs) is crucial to developing NCs with tailored nanostructures and properties. However, it remains a significant challenge due to the complexity of 3d bimetallic NCs formation and their sensitivity to oxygen. Here, by combining in situ electron microscopy and synchrotron X-ray techniques, we elucidate the nucleation and growth pathways of Fe-Ni NCs. Interestingly, the formation of Fe-Ni NCs emerges from the assimilation of Fe into Ni clusters together with the reduction of Fe-Ni oxides. Subsequently, these NCs undergo solid-state phase transitions, resulting in two distinct solid solutions, ultimately dominated by γ-Fe3Ni2. Furthermore, we deconvolve the interplays between local coordination and electronic state concerning the growth temperature. We directly visualize the oxidation-state distributions of Fe and Ni at the nanoscale and investigate their changes. This work may reshape and enhance the understanding of nucleation and growth in atomic crystallization.

Abstract
Methane is a valuable resource and its valorization is an important challenge in heterogeneous catalysis. Here it is shown that CeO2/CuO composite prepared by ball milling activates methane at a temperature as low as 250 °C. In contrast to conventionally prepared catalysts, the formation of partial oxidation products such as methanol and formaldehyde is also observed. Through an in situ Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) and operando Near Edge X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy (NEXAFS) approach, it can be established that this unusual reactivity can be attributed to the presence of Ce4+/Cu+ interfaces generated through a redox exchange between Ce3+ and Cu2+ atoms facilitated by the mechanical energy supplied during milling. DFT modeling of the electronic properties confirms the existence of a charge transfer mechanism. These results demonstrate the effectiveness and distinctiveness of the mechanical approach in creating unique and resilient interfaces thereby enabling the optimization and refining of CeO2/CuO catalysts in methane activation reactions.

Abstract
The CoSn(OH)6 perovskite hydroxide is a structure stable and inexpensive electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, the OER activity of CoSn(OH)6 is still unfavorable due to its limited active sites. In this work, an Fe3+ doping strategy is used to optimize the d-band state of the CoSn(OH)6 perovskite hydroxide. The CoSn(OH)6 catalyst with slightly Fe3+ doped nanocubes is synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method. Structure characterization shows that Fe3+ ions are incorporated into the crystal structure of CoSn(OH)6. Owing to the regulation of the electronic structure, CoSn(OH)6-Fe1.8% exhibits an OER overpotential of 289 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 in OER electrochemical tests. In situ Raman spectroscopy shows that no obvious re-construction occurred during the OER for both CoSn(OH)6 and CoSn(OH)6-Fe1.8%. DFT calculations show that the introduction of Fe3+ into CoSn(OH)6 can shift the d-band center to a relatively high position, thus promoting the OER intermediates' adsorption ability. Further DFT calculations suggest that incorporation of an appropriate amount of Fe3+ into CoSn(OH)6 significantly reduces the rate-determining Gibbs free energy during the OER. This work offers valuable insights into tuning the d-band center of perovskite hydroxide materials for efficient OER applications.

Abstract
Photocatalytic reactions using copper-based nanomaterials have emerged as a new paradigm in green technology. Selective photocatalysis is very important for improving energy utilization efficiency, and in order to directional improve catalytic selectivity, it is necessary to understand the mechanism of interfacial reactions at the molecular level. Therefore, a unique bifunctional Cu-CuBr substrate is first fabricated via an electrochemical method, which overcomes the instability of traditional copper-based materials and endows high surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensitivity and photocatalytic performance and can be stored stably for more than a year. Further modification of the surface with Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) containing carboxyl functional groups can significantly tune the surface properties of the substrate. This increases the adsorption of cationic dyes to improve the SERS effect, and 10-10 M methylene blue can easily be detected with this substrate. Surprisingly, in-situ SERS monitoring of the interfacial photocatalytic dehalogenation reaction of aromatic halides through its intrinsic SERS effect reveal two competing selective reaction pathways, self-coupling and hydrogenation. Typically, the SERS spectra reveal that the latter's selectivity was greatly enhanced after MOFs modification, and the yield rate of the hydrogenated product increased from 27.6 % to 46.9 % (selectivity increased from 32.7 % to 51.5 %). This proves that the surface properties of catalysts, especially the affinity for reaction intermediates, can effectively regulate catalytic selectivity.

Abstract
Hydrogenation reactions play a critical role in the synthesis of value-added products within the chemical industry. Electrocatalytic hydrogenation (ECH) using water as the hydrogen source has emerged as an alternative to conventional thermocatalytic processes for sustainable and decentralized chemical synthesis under mild conditions. Among the various ECH catalysts, copper-based (Cu-based) nanomaterials are promising candidates due to their earth-abundance, unique electronic structure, versatility, and high activity/selectivity. Herein, recent advances in the application of Cu-based catalysts in ECH reactions for the upgrading of valuable chemicals are systematically analyzed. The unique properties of Cu-based catalysts in ECH are initially introduced, followed by design strategies to enhance their activity and selectivity. Then, typical ECH reactions on Cu-based catalysts are presented in detail, including carbon dioxide reduction for multicarbon generation, alkyne-to-alkene conversion, selective aldehyde conversion, ammonia production from nitrogen-containing substances, and amine production from organic nitrogen compounds. In these catalysts, the role of catalyst composition and nanostructures toward different products is focused. The co-hydrogenation of two substrates (e.g., CO2 and NOx n, SO3 2-, etc.) via C─N, C─S, and C─C cross-coupling reactions are also highlighted. Finally, the critical issues and future perspectives of Cu-catalyzed ECH are proposed to accelerate the rational development of next-generation catalysts.

Abstract
Transition metal compounds (TMCs) have the advantages of abundant reserves, low cost, non-toxic and pollution-free, and have attracted wide attention in recent years. With the development of two-dimensional layered materials, a new two-dimensional transition metal carbonitride (MXene) has attracted extensive attention due to its excellent physicochemical properties such as gas selectivity, photocatalytic properties, electromagnetic interference shielding and photothermal properties. They are widely used in gas sensors, oil/water separation, wastewater and waste-oil treatment, cancer treatment, seawater desalination, strain sensors, medical materials and some energy storage materials. In this view, we aim to emphatically summarize MXene with their properties, applications and their wettability regulation in different applications. In addition, the properties of transition metal oxides (TMOs) and other TMCs and their wettability regulation applications are also discussed.

Abstract
The development of methods for selective cleavage reactions of thermodynamically stable C-C/C=C bonds in a green manner is a challenging research field which is largely unexplored. Herein, we present a heterogeneous Fe-N-C catalyst with highly dispersed iron centers that allows for the oxidative C-C/C=C bond cleavage of amines, secondary alcohols, ketones, and olefins in the presence of air (O2 ) and water (H2 O). Mechanistic studies reveal the presence of water to be essential for the performance of the Fe-N-C system, boosting the product yield from <1 % to >90 %. Combined spectroscopic characterizations and control experiments suggest the singlet 1 O2 and hydroxide species generated from O2 and H2 O, respectively, take selectively part in the C-C bond cleavage. The broad applicability (>40 examples) even for complex drugs as well as high activity, selectivity, and durability under comparably mild conditions highlight this unique catalytic system.

Abstract
In the domain of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), the development of efficient and durable catalysts for the electro-oxidation of small organic molecules, especially of alcohols (methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, et al.) has always been a hot topic. A large number of related electrocatalysts with splendid performance have been designed and synthesized till now, while the preparation processes of most of them are demanding on experimental operations and conditions. Herein, we put forward a facile and handy method for the preparation of multifunctional Ni(OH)2 -supported core-shell Ni@Pd nanocomposites (Ni(OH)2 /Ni@Pd NCs) with the assistance of galvanic replacement reaction (GRR) at room temperature and ambient pressure. As expected, the Ni(OH)2 substrate can prevent the aggregation of core-shell (CS) Ni@Pd nanoparticles (NPs) and inhibit the formation of COads and further prevent Pd from being poisoned. The synergistic effect between CS Ni@Pd NPs and Ni(OH)2 substrate and the electronic effect between Pd shell and Ni core contribute to the outstanding electrocatalytic performance for methanol, ethanol, and ethylene glycol oxidation in alkaline condition. This study provides a succinct method for the design and preparation of efficient Pd-based electrocatalysts for alcohol electro-oxidation.

Abstract
Fused coumarins, because of their remarkable biological and therapeutic properties, particularly pyranocoumarins, have caught the interest of synthetic organic chemists, leading to the development of more efficient and environmentally friendly protocols for synthesizing pyranocoumarin derivatives. These compounds are the most promising heterocycles discovered in both natural and synthetic sources, with anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, antitubercular, antihyperglycemic, and antibacterial properties. This review employed the leading scientific databases Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed up to the end of 2022, as well as the combining terms pyranocoumarins, synthesis, isolation, structural elucidation, and biological activity. Among the catalysts employed, acidic magnetic nanocatalysts, transition metal catalysts, and carbon-based catalysts have all demonstrated improved reaction yields and facilitated reactions under milder conditions. Herein, the present review discusses the various multicomponent synthetic strategies for pyranocoumarins catalyzed by transition metal-based catalysts, transition metal-based nanocatalysts, transition metal-free catalysts, carbon-based nanocatalysts, and their potential pharmacological activities.

Abstract
Since the intercalation of anions into layered hydroxides (LHs) has a great impact not only on their nucleation and growth but also on their structure, composition, and size, the intercalation chemistry of LHs has aroused the strong interest of researchers. However, the progress in the fundamental understanding of LHs intercalated with guest anions have not been paralleled by a concomitant development of the preparation and performance improvement of such materials. Considering the guidance of a timely in-depth review for scientists in this area, a systematic introduction about the development that is made on the above-mentioned issues is highly needed but yet missing so far. Herein, recent advances in understanding the chemical composition and structure of LHs intercalated with guest anions are systematically summarized. Meanwhile, typical and emerging bottom-up synthesis methods of LHs intercalated with anions are reviewed, and the potential impact of external reaction parameters on the intercalation of anions into LHs are discussed . Besides, different analytical characterization techniques employed in the examination of guest anion-intercalated LHs are deliberated upon. Finally, although progress is slow in exploring the intercalation mechanism, as many examples as possible are included in this review and inferred the possible intercalation mechanism.

Abstract
Iron-based heterogeneous catalysts are ideal metal catalysts owing to their abundance and low-toxicity. However, conventional iron nanoparticle catalysts exhibit extremely low activity in liquid-phase reactions and lack air stability. Previous attempts to encapsulate iron nanoparticles in shell materials toward air stability improvement were offset by the low activity of the iron nanoparticles. To overcome the trade-off between activity and stability in conventional iron nanoparticle catalysts, we developed air-stable iron phosphide nanocrystal catalysts. The iron phosphide nanocrystal exhibits high activity for liquid-phase nitrile hydrogenation, whereas the conventional iron nanoparticles demonstrate no activity. Furthermore, the air stability of the iron phosphide nanocrystal allows facile immobilization on appropriate supports, wherein TiO2 enhances the activity. The resulting TiO2-supported iron phosphide nanocrystal successfully converts various nitriles to primary amines and demonstrates high reusability. The development of air-stable and active iron phosphide nanocrystal catalysts significantly expands the application scope of iron catalysts.

Abstract
An efficient, secondary amine-catalyzed cascade annulation of 2-O/N-propargylarylaldehydes with 2,6-dialkylphenols was established to access biologically relevant functionalized 2H-chromenes and 1,2-dihydroquinolines tethered with a synthetically useful p-quinone methide scaffold in high yields under microwave irradiation and conventional heating conditions. The microwave-assisted strategy was convenient, clean, rapid, and high yielding in which the reactions were completed in just 15 min, and the yields obtained were up to 95%. This highly atom-economical domino process constructed two new C-C double bonds and a six-membered O/N-heterocyclic ring in a single synthetic operation. Its mechanism process was rationalized as involving sequential iminium ion formation, nucleophilic addition, and intramolecular annulation steps. Furthermore, the synthesized 2H-chromene derivatives were transformed into valuable indeno[2,1-c]chromenes, 5H-indeno[2,1-c]quinolines, and oxireno[2,3-c]chromene via a palladium-catalyzed double C-H bond activation process and epoxidation, respectively.

Abstract
Two essential characteristics that are required for hybrid electrocatalysts to exhibit higher oxygen and hydrogen evolution reaction (OER and HER, respectively) activity are a favorable electronic configuration and a sufficient density of active sites at the interface between the two materials within the hybrid. In the present study, a hybrid electrocatalyst is introduced with a novel architecture consisting of coral-like iron nitride (Fe2 N) arrays and tungsten nitride (W2 N3 ) nanosheets that satisfies these requirements. The resulting W2 N3 /Fe2 N catalyst achieves high OER activity (268.5 mV at 50 mA cm-2 ) and HER activity (85.2 mV at 10 mA cm-2 ) with excellent long-term durability in an alkaline medium. In addition, density functional theory calculations reveal that the individual band centers experience an upshift in the hybrid W2 N3 /Fe2 N structure, thus improving the OER and HER activity. The strategy adopted here thus provides a valuable guide for the fabrication of cost-effective multi-metallic crystalline hybrids for use as multifunctional electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with photothermal combined chemodynamic therapy (PTT-CDT) have attracted the attention of researchers owing to their excellent synergistic therapeutic effects on tumors. Thus, the preparation of multifunctional materials with higher photothermal conversion efficiency and catalytic activity can achieve better synergistic therapeutic effects for melanoma. In this study, a Cu-Zn bimetallic single-atom (Cu/PMCS) is constructed with augmented photothermal effect and catalytic activity due to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Density functional theory calculations confirmed that the enhanced photothermal effect of Cu/PMCS is due to the appearance of a new d-orbital transition with strong spin-orbit coupling and the induced LSPR. Additionally, Cu/PMCS exhibited increased catalytic activity in the Fenton-like reaction and glutathione depletion capacity, further enhanced by increased temperature and LSPR. Consequently, Cu/PMCS induced better synergistic anti-melanoma effects via PTT-CDT than PMCS in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, compared with PMCS, Cu/PMCS killed bacteria more quickly and effectively, thus facilitating wound healing owing to the enhanced photothermal effect and slow release of Cu2+ . Cu/PMCS promoted cell migration and angiogenesis and upregulated the expression of related genes to accelerate wound healing. Cu/PMCS has potential applications in treating melanoma and repairing wounds with its antitumor, antibacterial, and wound-healing properties.

Abstract
Low-cost non-noble metal nanoparticles are promising electrocatalysts that can catalyze oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Various factors such as poor activity and stability hinder the practical applications of these materials. The electroactivity and durability of the electrocatalysts can be improved by optimizing the morphology and composition of the materials. Herein, we report the successful synthesis of hollow porous carbon (HPC) catalysts loaded with ternary alloy (FeCoNi) nanoparticles (HPC-FeCoNi) for efficient OER. HPC is firstly synthesized by a facile carbon deposition method using the hierarchical porous zeolite ZSM-5 as the hard template. Numerous defects are generated on the carbon shell during the removal of zeolite template. Subsequently, FeCoNi alloy nanoparticles are supported on HPC by a sequence of impregnation and H2 reduction processes. The synergistic effect between carbon defects and FeCoNi alloy nanoparticles endows the catalyst with an excellent OER performance (low overpotential of 219 mV; Tafel slope of 60.1 mV dec-1) in a solution of KOH (1 M). A stable potential is maintained during the continuous operation over 72 h. The designed HPC-FeCoNi presents a platform for the development of electrocatalysts that can be potentially applied for industrial OER.

Abstract
Sigmatropic rearrangement provides a versatile strategy to site-selectively reorganize carbon-skeleton with high atom- and step-economy. Herein, we disclose a Mn(I)-catalyzed sigmatropic rearrangement of β, γ-unsaturated alcohols via C-C σ bond activation. A variety of α-aryl-allylic alcohols and α-aryl-propargyl alcohols could undergo in-situ 1,2- or 1,3- sigmatropic rearrangements to allow for converting to complex structural arylethyl- and arylvinyl- carbonyl compounds under a simple catalytic system. More importantly, this catalysis model can be further applied to assemble macrocyclic ketones through bimolecular [2n + 4] coupling-cyclization and monomolecular [n + 1] ring-extension. The presented skeleton rearrangement would be a useful tool complementary to the traditional molecular rearrangement.

Abstract
Increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere is a problem that must be urgently resolved if the rise in current global temperatures is to be slowed. Chemically reducing CO2 into compounds that are useful as energy sources and carbon-based materials could be helpful in this regard. However, for the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to be operational on a global scale, the catalyst system must: use only renewable energy, be built from abundantly available elements and not require high-energy reactants. Although light is an attractive renewable energy source, most existing CO2RR methods use electricity and many of the catalysts used are based on rare heavy metals. Here we present a transition-metal-free catalyst system that uses an organohydride catalyst based on benzimidazoline for the CO2RR that can be regenerated using a carbazole photosensitizer and visible light. The system is capable of producing formate with a turnover number exceeding 8,000 and generates no other reduced products (such as H2 and CO).

Abstract
The photocatalytic enhancement of sliver-based metals compounded with semiconductor materials has been demonstrated. However, there are relatively few studies on the effect of particle size in the system on photocatalytic performance. In this paper, silver nanoparticles of two different sizes, 25 and 50 nm, were prepared by a wet chemical method and subsequently sintered to obtain a photocatalyst with a core-shell structure. The photocatalyst Ag@TiO2-50/150 prepared in this study has a hydrogen evolution rate as high as 4538.90 μmol·g-1·h-1. It is interesting to find that when the ratio of silver core size to composite size is 1:3, the hydrogen yield is almost not affected by the silver core diameter, and the hydrogen production rate is basically the same. In addition, the rate of hydrogen precipitation in air for 9 months was still more than 9 times those of previous studies. This provides a new idea for the study of the oxidation resistance and stability of photocatalysts.

Abstract
Nickel(0) nanoparticles coordinated to NHC ligands bearing N-coordinated cinnamyl moieties were readily prepared by reduction of a [NiCpBr(NHC-cinnamyl)] complex with methyl magnesium bromide. The combination of a strong σ-donor NHC ligand with a π-coordinating appended cinnamyl moiety likely prevents nickel(0) nanoparticle aggregation to larger inactive species, and allows the effective and (Z)-selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes and ynamides.

Abstract
Controlling semiconductor photocatalysts by doping rare-earth ions is an effective strategy to improve photocatalytic performance. Simple solvothermal and calcination methods were used to prepare La3+ and Sm3+ modified Bi5O7I nanomaterials. Some characterizations such as XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, UV-vis, etc. were carried out to explore its structural composition and photoelectrochemical properties. The photocatalytic activity was investigated by simulating the degradation of TC and RhB under visible-light irradiation. The degradation results showed that the photocatalytic efficiency of 4S4L-Bi5O7I was the best among the samples with the 100% degradation rate of TC (Tetracycline hydrochloride) and 93% of RhB (Rhodamine B). The capture experiment and ESR test proved that the active substances that play a role in the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants were ·O2-, 1O2 and h+, and on this basis, the possible degradation mechanism was proposed. The final results showed that La/Sm co-doping expanded the light absorption range of Bi5O7I and improved the charge separation efficiency and the specific surface area. Besides, the surface defects were formed on the surface of Bi5O7I due to ion-doping, which could catch e- to promote the separation and transfer of carriers and improve the photocatalytic activity. LC-MS was used to analyze the possible degradation pathways of TC. And the toxicity of TC was also analyzed via T.E.S.T and Toxtree. The results showed comprehensive toxicity of TC was decreased by 4S4L-Bi5O7I so that the overall water pollution was reduced. This work can provide a reference for the subsequent development of bismuth-based photocatalysts.

Abstract
Precious metal catalysts are the cornerstone of many industrial processes. Replacing precious metal catalysts with earth-abundant metals is one of key challenges for the green and sustainable development of chemical industry. We report in this work a surprisingly effective strategy toward the development of cost-effective, air-stable, and efficient Ni catalysts by simple surface modification with thiols. The as-prepared catalysts exhibit unprecedentedly high activity and selectivity in the reductive amination of aldehydes/ketones. The thiol modification can not only prevent the deep oxidation of Ni surface to endow the catalyst with long shelf life in air but can also allow the reductive amination to proceed via a non-contact mechanism to selectively produce primary amines. The catalytic performance is far superior to that of precious and non-precious metal catalysts reported in the literature. The wide application scope and high catalytic performance of the developed Ni catalysts make them highly promising for the low-cost, green production of high-value amines in chemical industry.

Abstract
A two-step electrodeposition of CoMn2O4 and its chemical analogue CoMn(OH)x directly over Ni-foam yields an excellent water oxidation overpotential of 260 mA cm-2 with a Tafel slope of 29 mV dec-1 and a four-fold increase in turnover frequency. The enhanced efficacy of the composite catalyst is realized through synchronized redox pairs and superior carrier transport.

Abstract
Exploring low-cost and high-efficient electrocatalyst is an exigent task in developing novel sustainable energy conversion systems, such as fuel cells and electrocatalytic fuel generations. 2D materials, specifically 2D superlattice materials focused here, featured highly accessible active areas, high density of active sites, and high compatibility with property-complementary materials to form heterostructures with desired synergetic effects, have demonstrated to be promising electrocatalysts for boosting the performance of sustainable energy conversion and storage devices. Nevertheless, the reaction kinetics, and in particular, the functional mechanisms of the 2D superlattice-based catalysts yet remain ambiguous. In this review, based on the recent progress of 2D superlattice materials in electrocatalysis applications, the rational design and fabrication of 2D superlattices are first summarized and the application of 2D superlattices in electrocatalysis is then specifically discussed. Finally, perspectives on the current challenges and the strategies for the future design of 2D superlattice materials are outlined. This review attempts to establish an intrinsic correlation between the 2D superlattice heterostructures and the catalytic properties, so as to provide some insights into developing high-performance electrocatalysts for next-generation sustainable energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
The serpentine germanate materials are promising oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts due to their unique layered crystal structure and electronic structure. However, the catalytic activities still need to be improved to satisfy the practical applications. Adjusting the d-band center of metal active site to balance the adsorption and desorption of intermediates is considered an effective approach to improve the OER activity. In this work, an element dopant strategy was proposed to optimize the d-band state of Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4 serpentine to improve the OER activity. The density functional theory calculations revealed that Fe3+ doping increased the d-band center of the Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4 serpentine, which optimized the adsorption strength of intermediates on surface Ni and Fe atoms so that the Fe3+ doped Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4 (Ni2.25Fe0.75Ge2O5(OH)4) exhibited much reduced Gibbs free energy changes in the rate-determining step compared with pristine serpentine. Inspired by the theoretical calculations, the NixFe3-xGe2O5(OH)4 nanosheets with different amounts of doped Fe3+ were designed and synthesized. The structural characterizations indicated that Fe3+ was successfully doped into Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4 and replaced the Ni2+. The Fe3+ doped NixFe3-xGe2O5(OH)4 nanosheets showed greatly improved OER activity than Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4 and Fe3Ge2O5(OH)4. Further electrochemical analysis illustrated that Fe3+ doping reduced the adsorptive/formative resistance of intermediates and the charge transfer resistance and facilitated the kinetic process of OER. The in situ Raman spectra indicated that the Fe3+ doped Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4 possesses a more active Ni-O bond than pristine Ni3Ge2O5(OH)4. This work provides an effective strategy to tune the d-band center of serpentines for efficient electrocatalytic OER.

Abstract
Irrigation using sewage water can be beneficial, as it can increase the productivity of crops but has negative consequences on crops, soil contamination, and human health. It contains a variety of toxins, such as chemicals and heavy metals, which damage the soil and crops. In this regard, the aim of the research was to assess the potential health hazards of iron (Fe) metal in food crops (leafy and root crops) treated with wastewater (T_1), canal water (T_2), and tube well water (T_3). Water, soil, and edible components of food crops were collected at random from three distinct locations. Fe concentration in samples was estimated using atomic absorption spectrophotometer, following wet digestion method. The Fe concentrations, ranged from 0.408 to 1.03 mg/l in water, 31.55 to 187.47 mgkg-1 in soil and 4.09 to 32.583 mgkg-1 in crop samples; which were within permissible limits of the World Health Organization (WHO). There was a positive correlation between soils and crops. The bioconcentration factor, enrichment factor (EF), daily intake of metals (DIM), health risk index (HRI), and target hazard quotient (THQ) all values were <1, except for a pollution load index >1, which indicated soil contamination, but there was no Fe toxicity in crops, no health risk, and no-carcinogenic risk for these food crops in humans. To prevent the excessive accumulation of Fe metal in the food chain, regular monitoring is needed.

Abstract
Coloured wastewater is a major issue of today for human health and ecology. Among all available processes such as physical, chemical, biological and electrochemical methods, photocatalysis can be a promising solution because of its ability to degrade colour-causing compounds completely by converting them into simpler molecules (H2O, CO2) depending on dye structure. In this work, NiFe2O4 was synthesized by the co-precipitation method. Furthermore, the composites of NiFe2O4 with TiO2 were synthesized by varying amounts of TiO2. The spinel and composites were characterized by XRD, ZETA analysis and UV-DRS. Their photocatalytic activities were investigated using the photocatalytic degradation of reactive turquoise blue 21 (RB 21) dye as model pollutants under sunlight. The increased absorption of the visible light and the enhanced separation of the electron-hole pairs due to the relative energy band positions in NiFe2O4 and TiO2 are considered as the main advantages. Our results showed that NiFe2O4-based nanocomposites could be used as an effective and magnetic retrievable photocatalyst.

Abstract
Heterostructural nanomaterials demonstrate great potential to replace noble metal-based catalysts because heterojunctions could induce relocalization of electrons and facilitate the migration of electrons and charge carriers at the heterostructural boundary between electron-rich and electron-deficient metal sites; however, the instability of heterojunctions greatly hinders their practical applications. We report herein an effective strategy for the fabrication and stabilization of Ni0/NiII heterojunctions inside a porous metal silicate (PMS) material PMS-22 using a nickel coordination complex as the bifunctional template. The synergistic activity between metallic nickel and nickel silicate in PMS-22 highly boosts the catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of phenol, which could activate phenol at a very low temperature of 50 °C. Most importantly, PMS-22 demonstrates robust stability in catalysis, attributed to the strong interaction and charge transfer between metallic Ni and nickel silicate at the heterointerfaces inside the confined pores. Therefore, this work paves a new pathway to improve the stability and activity of heterostructural nanomaterials for catalytic applications.

Abstract
Developing catalysts to obtain high space time yield (STY) of gasoline-range hydrocarbons via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is a huge challenge due to the restriction of Anderson-Schulz-Flory distribution. Herein, a nitrogen doped biochar-based iron catalyst was synthesized by a one-step method using sugar cane bagasse as carbon precursor, which exhibited an excellent gasoline STY of 8.65 gC5-12 gFe-1 h-1, exceeding most reported catalysts. A strong positive relationship between the amount of pyrrolic N and long-chain hydrocarbons selectivity was displayed. The characterization results indicated that pyrrolic N configuration on anchor sites tuned effectively the dispersion of iron species and metal-support interaction as well as CO adsorption, improving the FTS performance.

Abstract
Hot carriers generated by localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) excitation of plasmonic metal nanoparticles are known to enhance electrocatalytic reactions. However, the participation of plasmonically generated carriers in interfacial electrochemical reactions is often limited by fast relaxation of these carriers. Herein, we address this challenge by tuning the electronic structure of a plasmonic electrocatalyst. Specifically, we design an electrocatalyst for alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) that consists of nanoparticles of a ternary Cu-Pt-Ni ternary alloy. The CuPt alloy has both plasmonic attributes and electrocatalytic HER activity. Ni doping contributes an electron-deficient 3d band and fully filled 4s band, which promotes water adsorption and prolongs the lifetimes of excited carriers generated by plasmonic excitation. As an outcome, the Cu-Pt-Ni nanoparticles exhibit boosted activity for electrochemical water dissociation and HER under LSPR excitation.

Abstract
The development of high-content non-noble metal nanocatalysts is important for multiphase catalysis applications. However, it is a challenge to solve the agglomeration in the preparation of high-content metal catalysts. In this paper, a carbon-based catalyst (Co@CN-G-600) with 71.28 wt % cobalt metal content was prepared using a new strategy of gas-phase carbon coating assisted by glycerol. The core of this strategy is to maintain the spacing of metallic cobalt by continuous replenishment of dissociated ligands during pyrolysis over gas-phase glycerol. This approach is also applicable to other non-noble metals. When Co@CN-G-600 was further used as a catalyst for the selective hydrogenation of furfural (FF) to prepare furfuryl alcohol (FOL), the yield of FOL was >99.9% under mild conditions of 80 °C, compared to only 8.23% catalytic yield at up to 130 °C for Co@CN-600 without glycerol. The excellent catalytic performance mainly lies in the fact that the introduction of glycerol modulates the size effect, electronic effect, and acidic site intensity of the high-content Co catalyst, which promotes the activation of FF and hydrogen. Meanwhile, the optimized specific surface area and pore structure by glycerol improve the accessibility of high-density active sites and promote more efficient mass transfer. In addition, the introduction of glycerol produced a graphitic carbon layer encapsulation structure relative to Co@CN-600, which substantially improved the cycling stability of the catalyst. This study resolves the paradox of high content and high dispersion of non-noble metal catalysts in the synthesis process and provides a general pathway and example for the preparation of stable high-content metal catalysts.

Abstract
Water is necessary for the survival of life on Earth. A wide range of pollutants has contaminated water resources in the last few decades. The presence of contaminants incredibly different dyes in waste, potable, and surface water is hazardous to environmental and human health. Different types of dyes are the principal contaminants in water that need sudden attention because of their widespread domestic and industrial use. The toxic effects of these dyes and their ability to resist traditional water treatment procedures have inspired the researcher to develop an eco-friendly method that could effectively and efficiently degrade these toxic contaminants. Here, in this review, we explored the effective and economical methods of metal-based nanomaterials photocatalytic degradation for successfully removing dyes from wastewater. This study provides a tool for protecting the environment and human health. In addition, the insights into the transformation of solar energy for photocatalytic reduction of toxic metal ions and photocatalytic degradation of dyes contaminated wastewater will open a gate for water treatment research. The mechanism of photocatalytic degradation and the parameters that affect the photocatalytic activities of various photocatalysts have also been reported.

Abstract
Antibiotic contamination in water bodies poses ecological risks to aquatic organisms and humans and is a global environmental issue. Persulfate-based advanced oxidation processes (PS-AOPs) are efficient for the removal of antibiotics. Sustainable biochar materials have emerged as potential candidates as persulfates (Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and Peroxydisulfate (PDS)) activation catalysts to degrade antibiotics. In this review, the feasibility of pristine biochar and modified biochar (non-metal heteroatom-doped biochar and metal-loaded biochar) for the removal of antibiotics in PS-AOPs is evaluated through a critical analysis of recent research. The removal performances of biochar materials, the underlying mechanisms, and active sites involved in the reactions are studied. Lastly, sustainability considerations for future biochar research, including Sustainable Development Goals, technical feasibility, toxicity assessment, economic and life cycle assessment, are discussed to promote the large-scale application of biochar/PS technology. This is in line with the global trends in ensuring sustainable production.

Abstract
In recent years, copper-based electrodes have attracted intense attention for the electrochemical reduction of nitrate (NO3-), the so-called ECRN. However, these electrodes suffer from low activity and selectivity. Herein, we report a novel Cu-based electrode (IE-Cu-400) for the ECRN fabricated by loading Cu-based nanoparticles onto graphite felt using in situ electrodeposition followed by annealing. Compared with traditional Cu-based electrodes, the IE-Cu-400 is comprised of smaller particles and the copper is present in a high oxidation state (Cu2+ in CuO). During operation, the CuO is converted to Cu, which is the active ECRN species. In addition, an increased surface area and high density of grain boundaries resulting from the reduction of CuO were observed for IE-Cu-400. This resulted in a 3.38-fold increase in the NO3- removal rate and a 1.36-fold increase in NH4+ selectivity. Further analyses revealed that the enhanced ECRN performance of IE-Cu-400 is linked to its increased number of active sites, as well as its improved adsorption and reduction ability for NO2-. Moreover, IE-Cu-400 displays high stability for the ECRN. Finally, the produced NH4+ was effectively oxidised to N2 with approximately 100% selectivity via chlorination. Hence, the two-stage treatment strategy (i.e. ECRN by IE-Cu-400 + chlorination treatment) presented here shows great potential for the complete electrocatalytic denitrification of water. Further, this work highlights the beneficial effect of decreasing the particle size and controlling the surface oxidation of Cu-based catalysts simultaneously for enhancing the ECRN and offers new suggestions for the design of high-performance electrode materials for the ECRN.

Abstract
The technique of using biochar-based catalysts in persulfate activation is a promising alternative to remov emerging and refractory pollutants (e.g., tetracycline-) in wastewater. However, the situation of biochars derived from waste pulp/paper mill sludge is still unclear. The pulp/paper mill sludge biochars (SBC300, SBC500, and SBC700) were obtained and characterized at pyrolysis temperatures of 300, 500, and 700 °C. Tetracycline degradation using peroxydisulfate activated by SBCs was investigated. The results demonstrated the removal efficiencies of tetracycline in SBC300-, SBC500- and SBC700-peroxydisulfate systems, which increased with the pyrolysis temperatures and were 4.3, 4.8, and 5.0 times that of a system with peroxydisulfate alone. The experiments of free radical quenching, singlet oxygen quenching, and electrochemistry indicated that the degradation of tetracycline in SBC-peroxydisulfate systems was mainly not a free radical pathway, but a non-radical pathway. Singlet oxygen (1O2) and electron transfer could play main roles in the degradation removal of tetracycline. The removal efficiencies of tetracycline in the SBC-peroxydisulfate systems could be up to 96.0% (SBC700-peroxydisulfate) under the optimum dosage of SBC, the molar ratio of peroxydisulfate to tetracycline and the solution pH value. The results indicate that a SBC700-peroxydisulfate system could be an effective “trash-to-treasure” treatment technique for wastewater containing antibiotics.

Abstract
In this work, magnetic mesocellular foam (M-MCF) silica nanoparticles were prepared via inserting magnetic nanoparticles into the pores of mesocellular foams, the inner surface of which was functionalized with a methionine-nickel complex (M-MCF@Met-Ni). The structure of the as-prepared nanocatalysts was studied by FT-IR spectroscopy, BET, TGA, VSM, SEM, HR-TEM, EDS, WDX, XRD, and ICP-OES techniques. Thereafter, this nanocatalyst was used as a new, effective, and magnetically reusable catalyst for C-S and C-Se bond formation under mild conditions. All corresponding products were prepared with good yields and appropriate turnover number (TON) and turnover frequency (TOF), which reveals the high activity of this magnetic nanocatalyst in both reactions. In addition, the recovery and hot filtration tests indicated that this catalyst could be simply separated from the reaction mixture using an outside magnet and reused five consecutive times without any significant loss of its catalyst activity or metal leaching.
