Abstract
Coexistence and switching between spin-crossover (SCO) and single molecular magnet (SMM) behaviours in one single complex may lead to materials that exhibit bi-stable and stimuli sensitive properties in a wide temperature range and under multiple conditions; unfortunately, the conflict and dilemma in the principle of approaching SCO and SMM molecules make it particularly difficult; at low temperature, low spin (LS) SCO molecules possess highly symmetrical geometry and isotropic spins, which are not suitable for SMM behaviour. Herein, we overcome this issue by using a rationally designed Co(II) mononuclear complex [Co(MeOphterpy)2] (ClO4)2 (1; MeOphterpy = 4'-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine), the magnetic properties of which reversibly respond to desolvation and solvation. The solvated structure reinforced a low distortion of the coordination sphere via hydrogen bonding between ligands and methanol molecules, while in the desolvated structure a methoxy group flipping occurred, increasing the distortion of the coordination sphere and stabilising the HS state at low temperature, which exhibited a field-induced slow magnetic relaxation, resulting in a reversible switching between SCO and SMM properties within one molecule.

Abstract
Herein, we report nanodiamond oxide (NDOx), obtained from modified Hummers' oxidation of nanodiamond (ND), showing excellent proton conductivity and thermal stability. NDOx possesses hydrophilicity resulting in higher water adsorption and the retention of functional groups at elevated temperatures can be attributed to the high proton conductivity and thermal stability, respectively.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) inactivation of pH-dependent graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets is presented. The observed virus inactivation using an authentic virus (Delta variant) and different GO dispersions at pH 3, 7, and 11 suggests that the higher pH of the GO dispersion yields a better performance compared to that of GO at neutral or lower pH. The current findings can be ascribed to the pH-driven functional group change and the overall charge of GO, favorable for the attachment between GO nanosheets and virus particles.

Abstract
Significant research has been conducted on molecular ferroelectric materials, including pure organic and inorganic compounds; however, studies on ferroelectric materials based on coordination metal complexes are scarce. Ferroelectric materials based on coordination metal complexes have tunable structures and designs, with coexistence or synergy between the ferroelectric behavior and magnetic properties. Compared to inorganic compounds, few coordination metal complexes exhibit coupling between the magnetic and dielectric properties. Coordination metal complexes with strong coupling between the magnetic and dielectric properties exhibit dielectric permittivity variations under external magnetic fields. Therefore, they have attracted substantial interest for their potential use in magnetoelectric devices. In this review, we discuss recent advances in coordination metal complexes, that exhibit coupled magnetic functionalities and ferroelectricity or dielectric properties, including single-molecule magnets, electron delocalization systems, and external stimuli responsive compounds.

Abstract
A long alkyl-chained organic molecule, 4,5,6,7-tetrachloro-2-dodecylisoindoline-1,3-dione (1), was crystallized into needle-like crystals in dichloromethane (1DCM) or plate-like ones in tetrahydrofuran (1THF) depending on the recrystallisation solvent. X-ray crystallography analyses revealed the alkyl chains of the molecules, in which they were assembled differently, with the former responding flexibly bendable and elastic deformation, and the later being a permanent plastic one by external mechanical stress. The elastic modulus (E) and hardness (H) indicating both compliant and soft nature, reflecting their weak interaction in crystals, were quantified from the nano-indentation test.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the changes in knee pain, a dominant cause of physical disability, following the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, and to identify factors affecting the changes in knee pain. METHODS We analysed the pre- and post-COVID-19 longitudinal data set of the Nagahama Study. Knee pain was assessed using the Knee Society Score (KSS). The estimated KSS from the age and sex using regression model in the pre- and post-COVID-19 data set was compared. Factors including the activity score, educational level, and various impacts of COVID-19 were analysed for correlation analyses with changes in KSS. RESULTS Data collected from 6409 participants showed statistically significant differences in KSS, pre- (mean = 22.0; SD = 4.4) and post-COVID-19 (mean = 19.5; SD = 6.4). Low activity score (p = .008), low educational level (p < .001), and undesirable financial impact (p = .030) were independently associated with knee pain exacerbation. CONCLUSION The harmful effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on knee pain were suggested. People should be encouraged to engage in physical activities, such as walking, despite the state of emergency. Furthermore, social support for economically disadvantaged groups may improve healthcare access, preventing the acute exacerbations of knee pain.

Abstract
The development of efficient proton conductors that are capable of high power density, sufficient mechanical strength, and reduced gas permeability is challenging. Herein, we report the development of a series of aromatic sulfonic acid/graphene oxide hybrid membranes incorporating benzene sulfonic acid (BS), naphthalene sulfonic acid (NS), naphthalene disulfonic acid (DS) or pyrene sulfonic acid (PS) using a facile freeze dried method. For out-of-plane proton conductivity, the 3DGO-BS and 3DGO-NS yielded proton conductivities of 4.4×10-2 S cm-1 and 3.1×10-2 S cm-1 , respectively; this represents a two-times higher value than that which occurs for three dimensional graphene oxide (3DGO). Additionally, the respective prepared films as membranes in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) show maximum power density of 98.76 mW cm-2 for 3DGO-NS while it is 92.75 mW cm-2 for 3DGO-BS which are close to double that obtained for 3DGO (50 mW cm-2 ).

Microwave-assisted catalytic conversion of chitin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural using polyoxometalate as catalyst. RSC Adv 2021; 12:406-412.

Abstract
The key challenges for converting chitin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) include the low 5-HMF yield. Moreover, the disadvantages of traditional acid–base catalysts including complex post-treatment processes, the production of by-products, and severe equipment corrosion also largely limit the large-scale conversion of chitin to 5-HMF. In this view, herein we have demonstrated a microwave aided efficient and green conversion of chitin to 5-HMF while using polyoxometalate (POM) as a catalyst and DMSO/water as solvent. Chitin treated with H2SO4 followed by ball-milling (chitin-H2SO4-BM) was selected as the starting compound for the conversion process. Four different POMs including H3[PW12O40], H3[PMo12O40], H4[SiW12O40] and H4[SiMo12O40] were used as catalysts. Various reaction parameters including reaction temperature, amount of catalyst, mass ratios of water/DMSO and reaction time have been investigated to optimize the 5-HMF conversion. The H4[SiW12O40] catalyst exhibited the highest catalytic performance with 23.1% HMF yield at optimum operating conditions which is the highest among the literature for converting chitin to 5-HMF. Significantly, the disadvantages of the state of the art conversion routes described earlier can be overcome using POM-based catalysts, which makes the process more attractive to meet the ever-increasing energy demands, in addition to helping consume crustacean waste. We have demonstrated an efficient conversion of chitin to 5-HMF using a microwave aided method while using polyoxometalate (POM) as catalyst and DMSO/water as solvent.![]()

Abstract
Magnetoelectric (ME) materials exhibiting coupled electric and magnetic properties are of significant interest because of their potential use in memory storage devices, new sensors, or low-consumption devices. Herein, we report a new category of ME material that shows liquid crystal (LC), ferroelectric (FE), and field-induced single molecule magnet (SMM) behaviors. Co(II) complex incorporating alkyl chains of type [Co(3C16 -bzimpy)2 ](BF4 )2 (1; 3C16 -bzimpy=2,2'-(4-hexadecyloxy-2,6-diyl)bis(1-hexadecyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole)) displayed a chiral smectic C mesophase in the temperature range 321 K-458 K, in which distinct FE behavior was observed, with a remnant polarization (88.3 nC cm-2 ). Complex 1 also exhibited field-induced slow magnetic relaxation behavior that reflects the large magnetic anisotropy of the Co(II) center. Furthermore, the dielectric property of 1 was able to be tuned by an external magnetic field occurring from both spin-lattice coupling and molecular orientational variation. Clearly, this multifunctional compound, combining LC, FE, and SMM properties, represents an entry to the development of a range of next-generation ME materials.

Abstract
The rapid transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-driven infection signifies an ultimate challenge to global health, and the development of effective strategies for preventing and/or mitigating its effects are of the utmost importance. In the current study, an in-depth investigation for the understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 inactivation route using graphene oxide (GO) is presented. We focus on the antiviral effect of GO nanosheets on three SARS-CoV-2 strains: Wuhan, B.1.1.7 (U.K. variant), and P.1 (Brazilian variant). Plaque assay and real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) showed that 50 and 98% of the virus in a supernatant could be cleared following incubation with GO (100 μg/mL) for 1 and 60 min, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis and protein (spike (S) and nucleocapsid (N) proteins) decomposition evaluation confirm a two-step virus inactivation mechanism that includes (i) adsorption of the positively charged spike of SARS-CoV-2 on the negatively charged GO surface and (ii) neutralization/inactivation of the SARS-CoV-2 on the surface of GO through decomposition of the viral protein. As the interaction of S protein with human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is required for SARS-CoV-2 to enter into human cells, the damage to the S protein using GO makes it a potential candidate for use in contributing to the inhibition of the worldwide spread of SARS-CoV-2. Specifically, our findings provide the potential for the construction of an effective anti-SARS-CoV-2 face mask using a GO nanosheet, which could contribute greatly to preventing the spread of the virus. In addition, as the effect of surface contamination can be severe in the spreading of SARS-CoV-2, the development of efficient anti-SARS-CoV-2 protective surfaces/coatings based on GO nanosheets could play a significant role in controlling the spread of the virus through the utilization of GO-based nonwoven cloths, filters, and so on.

Abstract
The interlayer spaces in two dimensional (2D) layered materials such as graphene, metal oxides and metal chalcogenides can be used in a number of roles that include the trapping of gases, for ion transfer and for water purification applications. In such spaces, "inner" pressure occurs on guest species enclosed between the layers and its variation can, in principal, be used for precisely controlling particular guest properties. In this study, a mixture of two 2D materials including graphene oxide (GO) and nickel hydroxide (Ni(OH)2), was employed to yield an anisotropic GO-Ni(OH)2 hybrid 2D sheet. The inner pressure associated with this material was able to be tuned by reduction of the GO (to yield rGO) and this in turn was shown to affect the magnetic behaviour of Ni(OH)2. The ferromagnetic transition temperature (Tc) for Ni(OH)2 decreases as the interlayer distance became shorter, which is opposite to the behaviour observed for the application of hydrostatic pressure to the hybrid sheet. The uniaxial pressure affecting the interlayer of the 2D material, and generated by the reduction of GO to rGO, has the potential to not only influence the behaviour of a range of magnetic materials, but also individual properties of other types of functional materials.

Abstract
The viability of biorefining technology primarily depends on the facile cellulose conversion route with adequate conversion efficiency. Here we have demonstrated the microwave-assisted hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose using polyoxometalate (POM) clusters as acid catalysts. Two different types of POM, including Wells-Dawson and Keggin were justified as catalysts in the cellulose conversion process. In particular, the cellulose to glucose catalytic conversion using Wells-Dawson type POMs has not been reported to date. Also, even though there have been some previous reports about the catalytic biomass conversion of Keggin type POMs, the systematic study to optimize the conversion efficiency in terms of catalyst amount, reaction temperature, reaction time, and the amount of solvent is lacking. Under the experimental conditions employed, the Keggin-type catalyst showed higher cellulose conversion and glucose yield than the Wells-Dawson-type catalyst. Furthermore, the cellulose conversion efficiency and glucose yields were optimized by tuning the reaction conditions including temperature, reaction time, and the amount of solvent. Under optimized conditions, the Keggin-type POM catalyst shows a remarkably high glucose yield of 77.2% and a cellulose conversion of 90.1%. The unique complex properties of the POM catalyst, including being (i) strong acids with extremely high Brønsted and Lewis acidity and (ii) efficient microwave adsorbants which enhanced interaction between substrate and the catalyst can be attributed to the outstanding efficacy of the conversion process.

We observed a charge-cycling performance (∼16 times) with three electrons/Li+ ion insertion and extraction, corresponding to the stoichiometry redox of Cl2An2- + e- ↔ Cl2An·3- and Fe3+ + e- ↔ Fe2+. The generation/annihilation of radicals, Cl2An·3-, enables the significant improvement/deterioration of the magnetic phase transition temperature with Tc = 100 K.

Abstract
The magnetic properties and structural aspects of the 1-D cobalt(ii) complexes, [Co(pyterpy)Cl2]·2H2O (1·2H2O; pyterpy = 4'-(4'''-pyridyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine) and [Co(pyethyterpy)Cl2]·2H2O (2·2H2O; pyethyterpy = 4'-((4'''-pyridyl)ethynyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine) are reported. In each complex the central cobalt(ii) ion displays an octahedral coordination environment composed of three nitrogen donors from the terpyridine moiety, a nitrogen donor from a pyridyl group and two chloride ligands which occupy the axial sites. 1·2H2O exhibits abrupt spin-crossover (SCO) behaviour (T1/2↓ = 218 K; T1/2↑ = 227 K) along with a thermal hysteresis loop, while 2·2H2O and the dehydrated species 1 and 2 exhibit high-spin (HS) states at 2-300 K as well as field-induced single-molecule magnet (SMM) behaviour attributed to the presence of magnetic anisotropic HS cobalt(ii) species (S = 3/2). 1·2H2O exhibited reversible desorption/resorption of its two water molecules, revealing reversible switching between SCO and SMM behaviour triggered by the dehydration/rehydration processes. Single crystal X-ray structural analyses revealed that 1·2H2O crystalizes in the orthorhombic space group Pcca while 2 and 2·2H2O crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2/n. Each of the 1-D chains formed by 1·2H2O in the solid state are bridged by hydrogen bonds between water molecules and chloride groups to form a 2-D layered structure. The water molecules bridging 1-D chains in 1·2H2O interact with the chloride ligands occupying the axial positions, complementing the effect of Jahn-Teller distortion and contributing to the abrupt SCO behaviour and associated stabilization of the LS state.

Abstract
Skin volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can cause body odor or reveal human disease and may result from lipid peroxidation or activity by skin bacteria. We examined the effect of intake of New Zealand blackcurrant (NZBC) powder for 77 skin VOCs in middle-aged and older adults in a crossover design. Fourteen adults (nine males, age: 55 ± 5 yrs) consumed NZBC powder for 7 days (6 g·day-1 with 138.6 mg anthocyanins). Two hours after the last intake, a passive flux sampler with trapping media was applied in the base of the neck for 1 hour. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used for media analysis. Habitual anthocyanin intake was quantified using a food frequency questionnaire. Compared to control (i.e., no intake of NZBC powder), emission of six skin VOCs (i.e., 2-nonenal, acetic acid, 2-hexanone, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, benzaldehyde, allyl methyl sulfide) were lower by more than 25%. Increases were observed for γ-octanolactone (+184%) and γ-decanolactone (+89%). A trend for a decrease for isovaleraldehyde, hexanal, and 2-pentanone, and an increase for heptanoic acid and γ-nonanolactone was observed. There was a significant correlation with daily habitual dietary anthocyanin intake for control values of hexanal and percentage change of γ-octanolactone. NZBC powder can change emanation of some VOCs in human skin. Analysis of skin VOCs following specific polyphenol intake may address the impact of dietary components to affect internal metabolic processes, body odor, and health.

Abstract
Bifunctional electrocatalytic properties of freeze-dried Ni/NiOx, freeze-dried NiO, and freeze-dried Ni(OH)2 are reported. Freeze-dried Ni(OH)2 was synthesized by the freeze-drying method. Freeze-dried Ni/NiOx and freeze-dried Ni were obtained from the thermal annealing of the material. Both Ni(OH)2 and Ni/NiOx could sustain with freestanding freeze-dried 3D structures without any carbon support. Freeze-dried Ni/NiOx exhibited excellent bifunctional electrocatalytic properties with the ORR performance at 0.62 V (half-wave potential) and OER at 1.47 V (η = 10 mA cm-2). Using freeze-dried metal hydroxides can be considered useful in a wide range of carbon-free applications and can improve the electrocatalytic performance. The bifunctional catalytic activities were calculated to be 0.86, 0.98 and 1.14 V for freeze-dried Ni/NiOx, freeze-dried NiO and freeze-dried Ni(OH)2, respectively. The stacking of 2D sheets into 3D mass seemed to play a vital role behind this excellent bifunctionality of freeze-dried Ni/NiOx. The material reveals possible applications in Zn-air batteries. Besides, the strategy developed herein could be justified to obtain other transition metal-oriented bifunctional electrocatalysts as alternatives to Pt- and Ir/Ru-based expensive benchmark catalysts.

Abstract
Molecular materials whose electronic states are multiply varied depending on external stimuli are among the most promising targets for the development of multiply accessible molecular switches. Here, we report a honeycomb layer composed of tetraoxolene-bridged iron (Fe) subunits whose charge-ordered states are multiply variable via thermal treatments and solvation/desolvation with the crystallinity intact. The compound is (NPr4)2[Fe2(Cl2An)3] (1-d; NPr4 + = tetra-n-propylammonium; Cl2An2- = 2,5-dichloro-3,6-dihydroxo-1,4-benzoquinonate), which possesses three charge-ordered states: a low-temperature (LT) phase [(Fe3+)2(Cl2An2-)(Cl2An˙3-)2]2-; an intermediate (IM) phase [(Fe2.5+)2(Cl2An2-)(Cl2An2.5-)2]2-; and a high-temperature (HT) phase [(Fe2+)2(Cl2An2-)3]2- that varies according to temperature. In addition, the LT phase of 1-d is reversibly changeable to another IM phase in its solvated compound 1 via a solvation/desolvation process at room temperature. This example demonstrates a new multiple-switching system based on electron transfer and host-guest chemistry in a charge-flexible metal-organic framework.

Abstract
A series of substituted benzoate-bridged dichromium(ii,ii) complexes [Cr2(RCO2)4(THF)2] ([Cr2]), where RCO2- is substituted benzoate, was synthesized and its structural and magnetic properties were investigated. The orbital energies, as well as magnetic coupling energies, were also investigated using computational approaches. The HOMO/LUMO energy levels of the complexes are strongly dependent on the acidity, i.e., pKa, of the corresponding benzoic acids (RCO2H), revealing a linear trend in the respective groups of non-ortho, mono-ortho, and bi-ortho substituted groups. The CrCr magnetic coupling constant (ES-T) is little affected by pKa; instead, the ES-T is associated with the HOMO/LUMO gap and strongly correlated with the CrCr distance.

Abstract
A novel tetraoxolene-bridged Fe two-dimensional honeycomb layered compound, (NPr4 )2 [Fe2 (Cl2 An)3 ] ⋅2 (acetone)⋅H2 O (1), where Cl2 Ann- =2,5-dichloro-3,6-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinonate and NPr4+ =tetrapropylammonium cation, has been synthesized. 1 revealed a thermally induced valence tautomeric transition at T1/2 =236 K (cooling)/237 K (heating) between Fem+ (m=2 or 3) and Cl2 Ann- (n=2 or 3) that induced valence modulations between [FeIIHS FeIIIHS (Cl2 An2- )2 (Cl2 An.3- )]2- at T>T1/2 and [FeIIIHS FeIIIHS (Cl2 An2- )(Cl2 An.3- )2 ]2- at T<T1/2 . Even in a two-dimensional network structure, the low-temperature phase [FeIIIHS FeIIIHS (Cl2 An2- )(Cl2 An.3- )2 ]2- valence set can be regarded as a magnetic chain-knit network, where ferrimagnetic Δ and Λ chains of [FeIIIHS (Cl2 An.3- )]∞ are alternately linked by the diamagnetic Cl2 An2- . This results in a slow magnetization behavior attributed to the structure acting as a single-chain magnet at lower temperatures.

Abstract
Paddlewheel-type carboxylate-bridged dichromium(II,II) complexes possess intriguing properties such as high redox activity and thermally assisted paramagnetism. However, the relationship of their structures with electronic states and physical properties has not been extensively studied. In this work, we investigated a series of one-dimensional chain complexes based on the paddlewheel-type dichromium(II,II) tetraacetate complex ([Cr2II,II(OAc)4] = [Cr2II,II]) with pyridine/pyrazine-type organic linkers (μ2-Lax) having different σ- and π-donating abilities to clarify the electronic structure of [Cr2II,II] assemblies. The chain compounds are stable in air, probably owing to their robust polymerized forms. X-ray crystallographic studies and magnetic measurements revealed that the basicity (p Kb) of Lax, which quantitatively correlates with the σ-donor strength of Lax, modulates the Cr-Cr and Cr-Lax distances and the energy separation ( ES-T) between the diamagnetic (singlet) and thermally populated paramagnetic (triplet) states. The Cr-Cr and Cr-Lax distances are strongly influenced by σ- and π-donation from Lax, while the frontier δ orbital makes only a small contribution to the structural features. Density functional theory calculations were conducted to clarify this issue. The calculations produced the following unanticipated results against the long-known model: (i) the σ bonding orbital is the HOMO and dominates bonding in the [Cr2II,II] unit, (ii) the total Cr-Cr bond order is less than 1.0, and (iii) the δ orbital electron density is almost completely localized on the chromium sites. The computational results accurately predict the magnetic behavior and provide evidence for a new configuration of frontier orbitals in [Cr2II,II(RCO2)4(Lax)2].
