Abstract
Supramolecular assemblies, formed through electronic charge transfer between two or more entities, represent a rich class of compounds dubbed as charge-transfer complexes (CTCs). Their distinctive formation pathway, rooted in charge-transfer processes at the interface of CTC-forming components, results in the delocalization of electronic charge along molecular stacks, rendering CTCs intrinsic molecular conductors. Since the discovery of CTCs, intensive research has explored their unique properties including magnetism, conductivity, and superconductivity. Their more recently recognized semiconducting functionality has inspired recent developments in applications requiring organic semiconductors. In this context, CTCs offer a tuneable energy gap, unique charge-transport properties, tailorable physicochemical interactions, photoresponsiveness, and the potential for scalable manufacturing. Here, an updated viewpoint on CTCs is provided, presenting them as emerging organic semiconductors. To this end, their electronic and chemical properties alongside their synthesis methods are reviewed. The unique properties of CTCs that benefit various related applications in the realms of organic optoelectronics, catalysts, and gas sensors are discussed. Insights for future developments and existing limitations are described.

Abstract
Potential applications of 2D metal-organic frameworks (MOF) require the frameworks to be monophase and well-defined at the atomic scale, to be decoupled from the supporting substrate, and to remain stable at the application conditions. Here, we present three systems meeting this elusive set of requirements: M-TCNQ (M = Ni, Fe, Mn) on epitaxial graphene/Ir(111). We study the systems experimentally by scanning tunneling microscopy, low energy electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. When synthesized on graphene, the 2D M-TCNQ MOFs are monophase with M1(TCNQ)1 stoichiometry, no alternative structure was observed with slight variation of the preparation protocol. We further demonstrate a remarkable chemical and thermal stability of TCNQ-based 2D MOFs: all the studied systems survive exposure to ambient conditions, with Ni-TCNQ doing so without any significant changes to its atomic-scale structure or chemical state. Thermally, the most stable system is Fe-TCNQ which remains stable above 500 °C, while all the tested MOFs survive heating to 250 °C. Overall, the modular M-TCNQ/graphene system combines the atomic-scale definition required for fundamental studies with the robustness and stability needed for applications, thus we consider it an ideal model for research in single atom catalysis, spintronics or high-density storage media.

Abstract
The design and development of highly efficient electrocatalysts are very important in energy storage and conversion. As a kind of inorganic organic hybrid material, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been used as electrocatalysts in electrocatalytic reactions due to their structural diversities and fascinating functionalities. Particularly, MOF thin films are coordinated on substrate surfaces by a liquid phase epitaxial (LPE) layer by layer (LBL) growth method (called surface-coordinated MOF thin films, SURMOFs), and recently have been studied in various applications due to their precisely controlled thickness, preferred growth orientation and homogeneous surface. In this review, we will summarize the preparation and electrocatalysis of SURMOFs and their derived thin films (SURMOF-D). The SURMOF based thin films possess diverse topological structures and flexible properties, providing abundant catalytically active sites and fast charge transfer for efficient electrocatalytic performance in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CRR), supercapacitors, tandem electrocatalysis and so on. The research challenges and problems of SURMOFs for electrocatalytic applications are also discussed at the end of the review.

Abstract
Rational design of highly efficient catalyst for ORR is critical for development of advanced air cathode in Zn-air cells and fuel cells. To optimize the ORR performance of Co based cathode, the structure of carbon nanotube from DCI-Co precursor could be controlled through modulate synthetic parameters. The optimized ORR catalyst Co@NCNT-700 exhibit larger BET area, higher content of Co-N x and graphitic N, which performance could be improved in further through Cu doping. The experiment data approved that the activity of Co-N x was enhanced by the synergistic effect with introduced Cu. Furthermore, the high-performance zinc-air batteries was fabricated with the bimetal catalyst CuCo@NCNT-700 as an air electrode. The high open-cycle potential (1.54 V) and peak power density (0.275 W.cm-2 at 0.474 A.cm-2) were achieved, which would be potentially used to develop next generation energy conversion devices.

Abstract
Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are one of the most prominent clean energy technologies designed to achieve hydrogen utilization and solve problems such as low efficiency and high pollution associated with fossil fuel combustion. In order to bring about PEMFC commercialization, especially for automobile applications, developing high-activity and -selectivity catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is of critical importance. Based on the density functional theory, the catalytic activity of the conductive, two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks TM3(HITP)2 monolayer (where HITP = hexaiminotriphenylene; TM = Ni, Co, Fe, Pd, Rh, Ru, Pt, Ir, and Os) for ORR has been investigated systematically. Furthermore, the classical volcano curves of the ORR activity, as a function of the OH binding, are found where the Ni, Pd, and Pt located at the weak binding side suffer from the sluggish *OOH formation and prefer the inefficient 2e - mechanism, while for other elements belonging to the strong binding side, the reactions are hindered by the poison due to ORR intermediates. Based on the free energy profiles, the corresponding overpotentials μORR exhibit the inverted volcano curve as a function of the atomic number of the 3d/4d/5d TM active center in the same period. Based on the μORR data, ORR activity decreases in the order of Ir > Co ≈ Rh > Ni ≈ Pd > Pt ≈ Fe > Ru > Os. Herein, the Co, Rh, and Ir central atoms exhibit enhanced catalytic activity in combination with the desirable selectivity of the O2 reduction to H2O. This systematic work may open new avenues for the development of high-performance non-PGM catalysts for practical applications of ORR.

Abstract
The activation of molecular oxygen (O2) is extremely crucial in heterogeneous oxidations for various industrial applications. Here, a charge-transfer complex CuTCNQ nanowire (CuTCNQ NW) array grown on the copper foam was first reported to show CO catalytic oxidation activity at a temperature below 200 °C with the activated O2 as an oxidant. The molecular O2 was energetically activated over the Cu(I)-mediated C≡N bond with a lower energy of -1.167 eV and preferentially reduced to •O2- through one-electron transfer during the activation process by density functional theory calculations and electron paramagnetic resonance. The theoretical calculations indicated that the CO molecule was oxidized by the activated O2 on the CuTCNQ NW surface via the Eley-Rideal mechanism, which had been further confirmed by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra. These results indicated that the local C≡N bond electron-state engineering could effectively improve the molecular O2 activation efficiency, which facilitates the low-temperature CO catalytic oxidation. The findings reported here enhance our understanding on the molecular oxygen activation pathway over metal-organic nanocatalysts and provide a new avenue for rational design of novel low-cost, organic-based heterogeneous catalysts.

Abstract
The design of efficient schemes for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) regeneration is essential for the development of enzymatic biotechnological processes in order to sustain continuous production. In line with our motivation for the encapsulation of redox cascades in liposomes to serve as microbioreactors, we developed a straightforward strategy for the interfacial oxidation of entrapped NADH by ferricyanide as an external electron acceptor. Instead of the commonly applied enzymatic regeneration methods, we employed a hydrophobic redox shuttle embedded in the liposome bilayer. Tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) mediated electron transfer across the membrane and thus allowed us to shortcut and emulate part of the electron transfer chain functionality without the involvement of membrane proteins. To describe the experimental system, we developed a mathematical model which allowed for the determination of rate constants and exhibited handy predictive utility.
