Over the past few decades, the escalating issue of water pollution has primarily originated from the direct discharge of industrial and municipal waste. The perilous ramifications of waste laden with pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) are particularly concerning, largely due to the rise of antibiotic-resistant microbes. This makes the implementation of effective treatment processes for mitigating PhAC pollution increasingly difficult. This review highlights the proliferation of PhACs, their risk to aquatic life, and the subsequent development of antimicrobial-resistant microbes. Photocatalysis has emerged as a promising, environmentally friendly approach for pollutant degradation, but its practical application remains limited due to challenges such as poor photocatalytic efficiency, incomplete mineralization, generation of intermediate products, and inefficient catalyst recovery. This review explores bio-based modifications of photocatalytic materials to enhance catalytic performance by lowering the bandgap, delaying electron-hole pairs recombination, and improving hydrophilicity. This review also introduces a novel integrated mechanism combining photocatalytic degradation, membrane-assisted photocatalyst recovery, and biological degradation of PhACs and their intermediates, offering valuable insights for researchers and industrialists.

Cell-mimicking nanoreactors with fascinating physicochemical properties have attracted impressive interest in sustainable catalysis, energy conversion, environmental remediation, and synthetic biology applications. Hollow covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are ideal candidates for rational construction of artificial nanoreactors owing to their high-order crystalline structure, well-defined cavity with permeable shells, tailorable chemical structures, and easy functionalization. The current review paper aims to present a comprehensive summary of the precise synthetic chemistry of hollow COF nanoreactors as well as their latest advancements in energy conversion and environmental molecule processing. Initially, we expound the definition of nanoreactor and highlight the fundamental properties of hollow COF nanoreactors. Subsequently, a detailed summary and discussion are presented in terms of the molecular-level synthesis strategies of these nanoreactors, providing a detailed analysis of the formation mechanisms reported to date. Following this, we present the significant achievements towards photo/electrocatalysis applications based on the unique features and structure-activity relationship of hollow COF nanoreactors. Lastly, we look ahead the development challenges and provide the perspective for the potential directions in future research.

Green hydrogen (H2) production through hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) via water splitting is deemed an efficient and sustainable fuel or energy carrier without environmental detriments. However, its higher cost remains the bottleneck in the commercialization process. Ubiquitously, porous binary metal-based catalysts so far remain the most active electrocatalysts for the HER, owing to their electronic effect, optimum hydrogen binding energy, and lower activation energies for H-desorption and recombination close to the thermodynamic potential. Despite plentiful efforts and developments, the engineering of porous binary metals for the HER still comprises numerous scientific problems to be unraveled, which still await deliberation. This review emphasizes the rational design of porous noble binary-metal-based electrocatalysts, porous transition binary-metal electrocatalysts (i.e., carbides/oxides, phosphides, chalcogenides) for the HER, both experimentally and theoretically (i.e., density functional theory (DFT) simulations and machine learning). Additionally, the associated mechanism, fundamental, and current interrogations (i.e., electronic effect, phase, strain, phase engineering, and interaction support) are highlighted related to porous bimetallic electrocatalysts for the HER. Eventually, a brief synopsis of the relevant milestones of current challenges and revitalizing perspectives to direct future research is presented aimed at developing effective porous binary metal-based electrocatalysts for large-scale HER applications.
通过水分裂进行氢进化反应(HER)生产绿色氢气(H2)被认为是一种高效、可持续的燃料或能源载体,不会对环境造成危害。然而,其较高的成本仍然是商业化进程中的瓶颈。由于多孔二元金属催化剂的电子效应、最佳氢结合能以及接近热力学势能的较低氢解吸和重组活化能,迄今为止,多孔二元金属催化剂仍是最活跃的氢进化反应电催化剂。尽管做出了大量努力并取得了长足发展,但多孔二元金属在氢转换反应中的工程应用仍存在许多有待解决的科学问题,这些问题仍有待深入研究。这篇综述从实验和理论(即密度泛函理论(DFT)模拟和机器学习)两方面强调了多孔惰性二元金属电催化剂、多孔过渡二元金属电催化剂(即碳化物/氧化物、磷化物、铬化物)在氢效率反应器中的合理设计。此外,还重点介绍了与用于 HER 的多孔双金属电催化剂相关的机制、基础和当前研究(即电子效应、相、应变、相工程和相互作用支持)。最后,简要概述了当前挑战的相关里程碑以及指导未来研究的新视角,旨在开发用于大规模 HER 应用的有效多孔双金属电催化剂。

Sensor technology is considered to be one of the three pillars of modern information technology and has a wide range of applications in many fields. As an emerging two-dimensional (2D) material, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have attracted more interests in sensor applications due to the characteristics such as layered structure, large surface area, unique exchangeability of intercalated anions and environmental friendliness. The unique structure and surface properties of LDHs have enabled them to be utilized in a broad application in electrochemical, optical, photodetectors, humidity, and gas sensor. However, a comprehensive review on this topic is still lacking in this field. In this paper, the research progress of LDHs in sensor field is summarized. Firstly, the development process and structural characteristics of LDHs is introduced. Secondly, the characteristics of common synthesis methods of LDHs are discussed. Thereafter, we systematically describe the great potential of LDHs in sensor applications, including electrochemical, optical, photodetectors, humidity and gas sensors. Finally, based on the current state of technology, we summarize the challenges and future prospects in this field.

After the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for highly sensitive, miniaturized, non-destructive sensing of disease biomarkers has received significant attention. Nanomaterial-coated paper-based electrochemical biosensors were utilized to diagnose various disease biomarkers. Nanomaterials have contributed significantly to electrochemical biosensors advancements because they improve biosensing properties such as specificity, sensitivity, robustness, and reproducibility. Moreover, the viability of environmentally friendly paper-based electrochemical biosensors for the highly sensitive detection of target analytes in complicated samples has improved. Paper-based electrode (PE) substrates are desirable for lab-scale and large-scale manufacturing applications because they are inexpensive, do not require microfluidic pumps because electrolyte migration can be achieved through capillary action, can be stacked with reagents for reagent-less applications, and can achieve multiphase detection via origami-based approaches. Therefore, this review considers the properties of functional nanomaterials, such as the active surface area available for interactions, attachment of biorecognition species to the electrode via microporous capillary action, cellulose conductivity, and photochemical functional properties, and electrochemical properties of carbon-based conductive pastes that are widely used to print sensors onto paper substrates. The conclusions can be used to improve PE biosensors for biomedical research. Recent paper-based electrodes modified with different nanomaterials for detecting various biomarkers are discussed.
COVID-19 大流行之后,对高灵敏度、微型化、非破坏性疾病生物标志物传感的需求受到极大关注。基于纳米材料涂层纸的电化学生物传感器被用来诊断各种疾病生物标记物。纳米材料提高了生物传感特性,如特异性、灵敏度、稳健性和可重复性,因而极大地推动了电化学生物传感器的发展。此外,环保型纸基电化学生物传感器在高灵敏度检测复杂样品中目标分析物方面的可行性也有所提高。纸基电极(PE)基板是实验室规模和大规模生产应用的理想选择,因为它们价格低廉,不需要微流泵,因为电解质迁移可以通过毛细作用实现,可以与试剂堆叠在一起实现无试剂应用,还可以通过折纸方法实现多相检测。因此,本综述考虑了功能纳米材料的特性,如可用于相互作用的活性表面积、生物识别物种通过微孔毛细作用附着到电极上、纤维素的导电性和光化学功能特性,以及广泛用于在纸基底上打印传感器的碳基导电浆料的电化学特性。这些结论可用于改进用于生物医学研究的 PE 生物传感器。本文讨论了最近用不同纳米材料修饰的纸基电极,用于检测各种生物标记物。

The ability of gold-based complexes in diagnosis and treatment of cancers as the main worldwide health problems, along with the successful clinical reports of bioactive azole-based drugs has attracted high attention from medicinal chemists and increased the significant interest in conducting research of azole-based gold complexes. The present review gives an updated overview of the anticancer potential of nitrogen-rich azole-based gold coordination complexes with the aim of providing an insight into the correlations between the biological activity and chemical structures of these complexes to the achievement of efficient anticancer agents. Comparison of the anticancer potential of these complexes clearly indicates the role of various influencing factors in this case. Selection and designing of suitable ligands and analysis of the structure-activity relationships (SAR) of compounds is the true cornerstone and a key constituent in medicinal chemistry. The geometry of complexes, the oxidation states of the gold centers along with the effect of the donor atoms, the types of ligands and the existence of different groups in the framework of the ligands are the important parameters that determine the final bioactivity of the complexes. The synergic mechanism of action along with combination therapies of them are another approach that can overcome the limitations of some of the approved drugs. These complexes can be efficient in cancer therapy as chemotherapy agents, as photodynamic therapy (PDT) agents and as biomolecule imaging agents. We believe that this review can prompt widespread studies and progress in order to design and synthesize efficient complexes in treatment and diagnosis of cancer. Finding and concluding the molecular mechanism of action and the synergic pathway of the complexes and comparison of the corresponding data can help to the development of efficient anticancer drugs with low toxicity and least side effects with respect to the combination therapy and considering the synergic mechanism of action of them. This review will be interesting for inorganic chemists and specialists in medicinal chemistry about the discovery and development of anticancer drugs.

Chemotherapy is a fundamental modality in the treatment of breast cancer (BC), employed across both early and advanced stages. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), known for its aggressive behavior and propensity for metastasis, presents significant treatment challenges due to its resistance to standard chemotherapeutic approaches. Identifying molecular targets for TNBC is imperative, especially in the absence of specifically targeted drugs and given the generally poor prognosis of the disease. Although nanomedicine has substantially grown, incorporating a variety of clinical applications, challenges such as dose-limiting toxicities and limited patient response rates continue to hinder its broader application. Over the past decade, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have emerged as a promising category of luminescent materials, characterized by their outstanding optoelectronic properties, and their highly tunable structures and surface functionalities. These attributes make GQDs ideal candidates as drug carriers, facilitating straightforward functionalization, heightened chemotherapy sensitivity, and substantial drug loading capacities. This review provides a thorough exploration of recent advancements in GQDs applied to BC, with a specific focus on TNBC. It delves into the dynamics of breast cancer, emphasizing the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of TNBC and the innovative potential of GQDs in this context. Furthermore, it discusses various GQD-based therapeutic strategies that hold promise for enhancing outcomes in breast cancer treatment, potentially leading to transformative advancements in the management of TNBC. Additionally, this review incorporates insights from three-dimensional (3D) tumor models, offering a comprehensive perspective on GQD-mediated interventions in breast cancer therapy.

The energy crises and environmental pollution are the current main challenges for society. In this regard, efficient electrochemical energy conversion and storage technologies could be a promising solution to overcome these challenges. In the past few years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their derived materials have emerged as potential candidates for energy conversion and storage owing to their finely tuned structural and electronic properties, 3D morphology, large surface area, abundant active sites, good stability, and improved mass transport and diffusion. Among the thousands of MOFs reported in the literature, most are prepared using divalent 3d-metals (i.e., Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) with a combination of various organic linkers. In contrast, MOFs based on high-valent 3d metals, such as Ti, V, Cr, and Mn are less studied but have shown promise in energy conversion and storage. The high-valent 3d-metal-based MOFs offer easier synthesis, facile charge, and mass transport, tunable electronic properties, and high synergistic effects. Although many reviews have been published in recent years, none have focused on high-valent 3d-metal-based MOFs and their usage in energy conversion and storage. The current review summarizes the applications of MOFs made from high-valent 3d metals (Ti, V, Cr, and Mn) and their derived materials. This review focuses on the structure, porosity, and stability of high-valent 3d-metal-based MOFs and MOF-derived materials with their application in energy conversion and storage. Taking into account pioneering reports, this review offers a deeper comprehension and insight into the characteristics and uses of high-valent 3d-metal-based MOFs and MOF-derived materials. The recent progress, challenges related to the field, and the structure-activity-stability correlation have been established with plausible prospects.
能源危机和环境污染是当前社会面临的主要挑战。在这方面,高效的电化学能量转换和储存技术可能是克服这些挑战的一个有前途的解决方案。在过去几年中,金属有机框架(MOFs)及其衍生材料因其精细的结构和电子特性、三维形态、大比表面积、丰富的活性位点、良好的稳定性以及更佳的质量传输和扩散性,已成为能量转换和存储的潜在候选材料。在文献报道的数以千计的 MOFs 中,大多数都是利用二价 3d 金属(即 Fe2+、Co2+、Ni2+、Cu2+ 和 Zn2+)与各种有机连接剂结合制备的。相比之下,基于高价 3d 金属(如 Ti、V、Cr 和 Mn)的 MOF 研究较少,但在能量转换和储存方面已显示出前景。基于高价 3d 金属的 MOFs 具有合成容易、电荷和质量传输方便、电子特性可调以及协同效应高等特点。虽然近年来发表了许多综述,但没有一篇综述关注高价 3d 金属基 MOFs 及其在能量转换和存储中的应用。本综述总结了由高价 3d 金属(钛、钒、铬和锰)及其衍生材料制成的 MOFs 的应用。本综述侧重于高价 3d 金属基 MOF 及其衍生材料的结构、孔隙率和稳定性,以及它们在能量转换和储存中的应用。本综述结合先驱性报告,对高价三维金属基 MOFs 和 MOF 衍生材料的特性和用途进行了深入的理解和洞察。该领域的最新进展、面临的挑战以及结构-活性-稳定性的相关性均已确定,并具有合理的前景。

Over the preceding years, there has been a notable rise in scientific inquiry focused on nanocrystals composed of transition metal sulfides (TMSs) materials. This heightened interest stems from their potential applications in environmental conservancy and the advancement of renewable energy solutions. This is largely attributed to the plentiful availability of materials with readily adjustable electronic-optical, physical, and chemical characteristics. TMSs represent semiconducting compounds wherein sulfur functions as the anion coordinated with a metal cation. These compounds can exhibit mono-, bi-, or multiple forms of metal ions. The extensive range of TMSs materials offers a distinctive framework for generating a myriad of potential materials showcasing diverse chemical, physical, and electronic phenomena, along with innovative serviceable characteristics and applications. Unlocking the complete potential of these captivating materials necessitates the development of scalable techniques for fabricating cost-effective TMSs, heterostructures, and high-quality hybrids. This inclusive review delineates methodologies for the precise fabrication of TMSs, followed by an examination of the recent morphologies of TMSs nanocrystals achieved through various material fabrication techniques. This study highlights the notable contribution of various metal-sulfide-based nano-photocatalysts in efficiently degrading toxic organic pollutants, antibiotics, and dyes. Additionally, a detailed exploration of their role in water splitting for hydrogen fuel has been presented by specifying different charge transfer mechanisms in nanocomposites containing TMSs nanocrystals. Furthermore, TMSs-based electrodes for electrocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic water splitting, carbon dioxide reduction, energy storage, and supercapacitance have been chartered in detail to cope with energy crises. Finally, some shortcomings of TMSs-based semiconductors are discussed from a future perspective in this review article. We hope this review article presents new directions for pollutant degradation, energy generation, and storage to reduce the impacts of global warming.
