The application of lithium metal anodes (LMAs) in batteries promises high energy density but faces challenges due to uncontrollable Li dendrite formation and instability of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). The architectural features and diversity of fabrication methods of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), such as well-ordered pores, functionalities tunability, and remarkable stability, endow COF-based interfacial layers with homogenizing ion flux and accelerating ion transport, have demonstrated to be a straightforward and efficient way to tackle LMA problems. This review thoroughly reviews the general structure and linking modes of COFs, the Li+ interfacial chemistry and associated characteristics as well as the prominent progress occurring from 2019 to 2024. Meanwhile, this review attempts to propose some tactics anticipated in the future development of COFs for LMA applications in terms of large-scale manufacturing, improvement of battery performance, and exploration of the mechanism. It is widely believed that optimizing the synergistic effects between the building blocks of COFs will offer valuable insights and guidance for both researchers and practitioners working in this area.

With the widespread application of lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, safety issues have become increasingly important. Lithium-ion batteries may experience thermal runaway under conditions such as overcharging and thermal abuse, leading to serious safety incidents. Therefore, timely monitoring and early warning of thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries are crucial for ensuring their safe operation. Current monitoring methods mainly include temperature sensors, voltage monitoring, and gas sensors. Although temperature sensors and voltage monitoring are relatively mature, they lack sufficient sensitivity for early detection of thermal runaway. In contrast, gas sensors, particularly semiconductor gas sensors, have gradually become a research hotspot due to their high sensitivity and rapid response. The performance of semiconductor gas sensors primarily depends on their material composition and sensing mechanisms, which are usually based on the interactions between gas molecules and the surface electrons of the semiconductor. This paper discusses the sensitivity enhancement mechanisms of materials in detail from five perspectives: microstructure, micro-morphology, noble metal modification, element doping, and heterostructures. Based on recent reports, insights into the performance improvement and application potential of gas-sensitive materials are provided, offering new ideas and directions for future research. Additionally, this section elaborates on the working principle of lithium-ion batteries and the reaction mechanisms of thermal runaway. When thermal runaway occurs in lithium-ion batteries, the internal reactions can be divided into several stages based on temperature: dendrite formation, decomposition of the SEI film, reactions between the anode material and the electrolyte, melting of the separator and short-circuiting, decomposition of the electrolyte, and reactions between the electrolyte and the cathode and binder. These processes are accompanied by the generation and consumption of characteristic gases such as H<sub>2</sub>, CO<sub>2</sub>, CO, CH<sub>4</sub>, and HF. Focusing on the characteristic gases of thermal runaway, the latest developments in semiconductor gas sensors in recent years are discussed in detail. A thorough review and in-depth summary of articles related to the use of semiconductor gas sensors for safety detection of thermal runaway in lithium batteries over the past few years are provided, aiming to help readers quickly and comprehensively understand and grasp the key technologies and current developments in this field.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have emerged as promising catalysts in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NOx) using NH3. This review highlights the various types of MOF materials commonly applied in NH3-SCR processes, including UiO-66, MIL-101, MIL-100, HKUST-1 (Cu-BTC), ZIF-8, ZIF-67, and other BTC series catalysts. Additionally, it provides a comprehensive analysis of the NH3-SCR denitrification (de-NOx) reaction mechanism occurring on MOF materials, encompassing active sites, intermediate states, and reaction processes. Furthermore, the review conducts a thorough analysis of the poisoning mechanisms of water, sulfur, alkali metal, and alkaline-earth metal that may occur during NH3-SCR reactions with MOF materials, along with strategies to enhance their tolerance to poisoning. The challenges that MOF materials face in NH3-SCR de-NOx applications are outlined, alongside prospective future directions and applications. Effective strategies, such as constructing protective sites, modifying coordination structures, tuning pore architectures, and designing multi-metal active centers, are proposed to improve the redox and acid cycles and the tolerance to poisoning in NH3-SCR reactions. In conclusion, MOF materials hold tremendous potential in de-NOx catalysis, but practical gaps relative to industrial demands remain. This review aims to bridge these gaps and enhance the feasibility and efficiency of their industrial applications. Attention is drawn to the importance of continued research and development to optimize these materials for practical use, ensuring they meet the robustness, durability, and performance required for large-scale implementation in NH3-SCR de-NOx technologies.

The significant potential of electrocatalytic reduction reactions to address the world's energy crisis and protect the environment has established them as a crucial area of investigation. In recent years, the value of zero-dimensional carbon dots (CDs), which show great promise as electrocatalysts for solving the energy crisis, has become increasingly prominent as research continues to elucidate their large specific surface area, abundant surface functional groups, and unique electron transfer ability. Accordingly, understanding the fundamental relationship between the structures and properties of CDs and their creation mechanism will be critical in directing the synthesis of CDs and achieving superior catalytic performance. Furthermore, it is of particular importance to ascertain the precise source of catalytic activity and to gain an understanding of the reaction mechanism of the catalytic process, given the complexity of the structural composition of CDs. Accordingly, this review initially presents a comprehensive description and analysis of the classification, preparation, performance adjustment, and significance of CDs. On this basis, the latest research advances in improving the electrocatalytic activity and stability of CDs materials are evaluated from the perspectives of advanced in-situ and ex-situ characterization. Furthermore, the challenges and corresponding solutions for the development of high-performance CDs catalysts are highlighted to encourage the generation of innovative thinking and approaches for further investigation based on a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between CDs and electrocatalytic performance. This review is intended to enhance the knowledge of cutting-edge CDs electrocatalysis materials and advance their application in the creation of next-generation high-energy electrocatalytic materials.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), encompassing various metabolic disorders, are considered to be one of the leading global diseases. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has received special attention due to its higher fatality rates, which is regarded as one of the significant CVDs. Hence, there is a huge demand for developing a low-cost diagnostic technique (biosensors) to identify CVDs effectively at premature stages. In this context, various biomaterials have been explored towards the development of CVD biosensors. MXene, being one of the functional next-generation 2D-nanomaterials, finds its potential in diverse healthcare applications because of its superior characteristics. However, in the context of CVD biosensors, MXenes have been finding their significance, and they are yet to be explored in developing point-of-care (PoC) devices. With this motivation, this state-of-the-art comprehensive review has been compiled for the first time, emphasising the background of MXene-based biosensing techniques utilized in CVD diagnosis and treatments. Versatile MXene-based CVD biosensing technologies such as electrochemical (probing of blood biomarkers), electromechanical, Immunochromatographic test strips (ITS), conductive/tissue-engineered cardiac patches, piezoresistive polymer-based strain sensors, heart-on-a-chip/organ-on-a chip microdevices in diagnosis and treatment of CVDs have been spotlighted in this review article. The rationale of MXene and its associated mechanisms are highlighted in this review, along with the critical challenges and perspectives. Further, this review article encourages a broad readership and paves the way forward for developing next-generation PoC devices with bio-inspired MXenes.

Protein aggregation is implicated in numerous pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases, cancers, and cardiovascular disorders, making it a crucial target for innovative diagnostics and therapeutics. Recent advancements in organic fluorescent probes have transformed the visualization of protein aggregation, enabling non-invasive, real-time imaging with unprecedented sensitivity and resolution. This review provides a comprehensive exploration of cutting-edge strategies for designing and applying organic fluorescent probes, with a focus on key classes such as aggregation-induced emission (AIE) probes, molecular rotors, and conjugated polyelectrolytes. These probes have significantly advanced our ability to detect distinct aggregation stages, from early oligomer formation to mature fibrils, while overcoming challenges such as fluorescence quenching and specificity. By summarizing innovations in multi-modal imaging and near-infrared (NIR) probes, we highlight their strengths and discuss how these advancements may inspire the development of next-generation probes tailored for studying protein aggregation. Finally, we identify opportunities to enhance probe design for improved biocompatibility, quantitative capabilities, super-resolution imaging and therapeutic integration, positioning next-generation fluorescent probes as transformative tools in clinical and research settings.

Globally photocatalysis has been considered the most auspicious technology that can activate and convert organic pollutants into sustainable environment, and renewable energy-related systems. A practical way to increase solar radiation sensitivity and accelerate electron (e−) mobility is to construct semiconductor hetero-interface wide-ranging sunlight-driven photocatalysts. CeVO4 is a ceria-based semiconducting material revealing exceptional photo-physical properties including reversible valence state, high oxygen storing capacity, thermo-mechanically & chemically stable, and abundant mobile oxygen vacancies that assist in the conversion of the associated chemical reactions. Comprehensively summarized important factors affecting the photocatalysis reaction efficiency namely, morphology, crystal facets, defect structure, doping metallic & non-metallic ions, and coupling or formation of hybrid heterojunction with different materials. A considerable effort should be exercised to architect appropriate heterointerfaces, which efficiently promote the absorption of photons under UV, visible, and solar illumination to enrich the immigration of photoexcited charge carriers during the excitation stage, and reduces losses of e−s, while the excitation state is necessary for the outstanding performance of CeVO4 photocatalysis reaction. Intriguing and distinctive characteristics of metallic ion doping, coupling binary, ternary oxides, and carbonaceous materials with CeVO4 photocatalytic systems have drawn much curiosity to build the most efficient photocatalyst technology development. Some external parameters including photo-produced e−−h+ pairs recombination, concentration of the photocatalysts/organic contaminants, pH of solution temperature, and oxidizing agent, significantly influence the photocatalysis reaction process consequently reducing the quantum yield. This review provides valuable insights, and critically assesses recent progress in designing highly efficient and sustainable photocatalytic systems, with broad implications for environmental remediation and renewable energy technologies.

Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), an emerging category of porous crystalline materials, are engineered via intermolecular H-bonding between organic monomers. Distinctive features of HOFs, including ease of solution processing, high crystallinity, and facile regeneration, have sparked significant research interest, providing innovative platforms for diverse multifunctional applications. Here, we summarize the strategies to expand the stability of HOFs, such as strengthening intermolecular interactions (via integrating multiple H-bonds and creating assisted H-bonds), introducing additional intermolecular interactions (including π–π stacking and Van der Waals (VDW) interactions), interpenetration, avoiding donor/acceptor structure formation, and cross-linking. In photocatalysis, visible light absorption is crucial, so to enhance this property of HOFs, several building blocks, including pyrene, perylene, porphyrin, heptazine units, and the addition of metal, are thoroughly discussed. Furthermore, this review explored the creation of heterojunctions, such as conventional heterojunction and Z/S-scheme, as modification strategies, along with their synergistic effects on enhancing the photocatalytic performance of HOF-based materials. With the growing immense potential applications of current HOF-related research in addressing critical environmental and energy challenges, this review emphasizes advancements in dyes and antibiotics degradation, energy conversion processes such as CO2 conversion, H2 and O2 evolution, and reduction of toxic metal-ions, especially U(VI). Lastly, the forthcoming prospects and challenges related to HOFs are explored.

Furthermore, this review explored the creation of heterojunctions, such as conventional heterojunction and Z/S-scheme, as modification strategies, along with their synergistic effects on enhancing the photocatalytic performance of HOF-based materials. With the growing immense potential applications of current HOF-related research in addressing critical environmental and energy challenges, this review emphasizes advancements in dyes and antibiotics degradation, energy conversion processes such as CO<sub>2</sub> conversion, H<sub>2</sub> and O<sub>2</sub> evolution, and reduction of toxic metal-ions, especially U(VI). Lastly, the forthcoming prospects and challenges related to HOFs are explored.","PeriodicalId":289,"journal":{"name":"Coordination Chemistry Reviews","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":20.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143661116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dithiolenes are a unique class of non-innocent ligands known for their ligand-centered redox activity and ability to stabilize multiple oxidation states. Their electronic properties can be fine-tuned by varying the metal center, making metal-dithiolene complexes particularly versatile. This review focuses on the electronic structure of dithiolene complexes of first-row transition metals, highlighting their redox behavior and bonding characteristics. These insights are critical for designing systems with targeted electronic properties. In the context of clean energy, metal-dithiolene complexes have gained attention as electrocatalysts, particularly for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), a vital component of water splitting. These complexes, along with 1D, 2D, and 3D metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or coordination polymers (CPs) incorporating dithiolenes, have demonstrated significant HER activity in both organic and aqueous media. We discuss key studies exploring their performance and delve into mechanistic insights that reveal how these materials facilitate hydrogen generation. Despite recent advances, the field faces challenges such as understanding the long-term stability of these systems, optimizing their activity under practical conditions, and exploring their scalability for industrial applications, as well as efforts to increase the conductivity of the standalone materials.

Interpenetration is a common phenomenon existed in porous crystalline materials like covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Although the development of COFs has made prosperous achievements during past years, the interpenetration phenomenon has still been paid less attention in this field. In view of this, this review will summarize the recent progress of interpenetrated phenomenon in 3D COFs, including their types, syntheses and related applications. It aims to summarize the strategies to control the interpenetration degree in 3D COFs. In comparison to 2D COFs and 3D non-interpenetrated COFs, characteristics of 3D interpenetrated COFs with different interpenetration degrees are comprehensively compiled, with a focus on topological structure and, in particular, on the applications of 3D interpenetrated COFs in different aspects. We also navigate through the challenges and opportunities of the interpenetrated phenomenon in 3D COFs. Overall, this review aims to deliver new guidance for the future advancement of 3D interpenetrated COFs.
