This review summarizes reports for synthesis of vanadium-, niobium-alkylidene complexes (complexes containing metal‑carbon double bonds) and the related reaction chemistry especially over the past 30 years (1995–2025). Some of these alkylidene complexes demonstrate promising capability as catalysts for olefin metathesis reactions such as highly active and thermal resistant (stereospecific) ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of cyclic olefins, living metathesis polymerization of internal alkynes, and ring closing metathesis (RCM) reactions. Some metal-alkylidene, alkyl-alkylidene complexes also display unique reactivities in activation of small molecules through CH bond activation.

Mitochondria are pivotal organelles in eukaryotic cells, intricately linked to cellular functions and energy metabolism. Mitochondrial metabolic processes can be induced by intracellular or extracellular factors, leading to alterations in metabolite levels and subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction and related diseases. Consequently, developing noninvasive, real-time imaging techniques capable of monitoring mitochondrial metabolites in complex biological systems is crucial for elucidating the relationship between mitochondrial metabolism and disease mechanisms. Optical imaging technology, with its advantages of noninvasiveness and high spatiotemporal resolution, has emerged as a powerful tool for studying mitochondrial metabolic activities. This review begins with the structure and energy metabolism of mitochondria, discussing the correlation between metabolites and mitochondrial activity. It then focuses on the emission mechanisms and functional design strategies of various optical materials, including small-molecule fluorophores, semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs), aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials, and lanthanide metal complexes, while summarizing their applications in detecting mitochondrial metabolites. Finally, the limitations and challenges of optical imaging in clinical translation are discussed.

Food safety as a global major public health issue, has put forward an urgent demand for highly sensitive, reliable, and onsite rapid detection technologies. Although traditional analytical methods are accurate, they are cumbersome to operate. Early biosensors based on nanozymes solved the stability problem of natural enzymes, but were limited by single-modality sensing strategies, facing the bottlenecks of weak anti-interference ability and insufficient information dimension in complex food matrices. This review systematically discusses how the sensing paradigm for food safety detection has achieved a profound evolution from monomodal to multimodal and finally to artificial intelligence (AI) driven intelligence through the core material of photoelectric nanozymes (PENz). In this paper, PENz material library covering noble metals, metal oxides, carbon-based materials, Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and their derivatives was first constructed, and the synergistic mechanism of their photo-electric-enzyme triple activities was elucidated. Furthermore, the strategic evolution from monomodal sensing to multimodal integration, such as photo-electric, photo-photo, and photo-electric-photo, as well as its applications in the field of food safety detection, were analyzed in detail. The core advantage of multimodal sensing in improving the accuracy and reliability of detection through signal cross validation is emphasized. Finally, the enabling role of AI technology in intelligent analysis of multi-modal data, accurate prediction of pollutants, and rational design of novel nanozymes was discussed. This paper aims to provide a clear theoretical blueprint and technical path for the future construction of an intelligent and onsite food safety monitoring system.

Aqueous zinc metal batteries (ZMBs) represent a highly promising solution for sustainable energy storage. However, their large-scale deployment is challenged by critical interfacial instabilities at the anode, including uncontrolled dendrite growth, parasitic hydrogen evolution, and severe corrosion. These issues originate from the inherently disordered and reactive interface between the electrode and the aqueous electrolyte. In response, the construction of an artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) has emerged as a foundational strategy for reconfiguring interfacial dynamics at the micro- and mesoscopic scale. By exerting precise control over ion transport, nucleation, and electrochemical reactivity, an engineered SEI layer can significantly improve Coulombic efficiency and long-term cycling stability. This review systematically examines the pivotal functions and stabilization mechanisms of artificial SEI layers for zinc anodes, discussing design principles, advanced construction methodologies, and performance evaluation under realistic conditions. We comprehensively summarize in-situ and ex-situ construction techniques, evaluate their respective applicability, and offer strategic insights for the rational design of high-performance SEI structures. By synthesizing recent theoretical and experimental advances, this work bridges fundamental research with practical applications, provides deep insights into SEI-mediated interfacial protection, and guides the development of ZMBs toward commercial realization.

Efficient electrochemical energy conversion and sustainable development largely depend on improving the catalytic activity of electrocatalysts. In recent years, exogenous elements, especially rare earth elements, have demonstrated significant potential in modifying transition metal-based electrocatalysts due to their unique electronic structure and chemical properties. This review summarizes recent advances in rare earth-modified catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction, highlighting their roles in tuning electronic structures, enhancing the exposure of active sites, and lowering the energy barriers of reaction processes. Through strategies such as lattice doping, surface modification, composite structure construction, and defect engineering, rare earth elements have significantly enhanced catalytic performance. This review further delves into the critical challenges confronting rare earth -base d electrocatalysts, encompassing atomic-level structure regulation, cost-effective scalable synthesis, in-depth reaction mechanism elucidation, and durability under practical operational conditions. It systematically explores their prospective applications in emerging renewable electrochemical energy technologies encompassing water-splitting conversion and energy storage application thereby offering critical theoretical insights and defining viable research trajectories for the rational design of efficient electrocatalysts.

Metal single-atom absorbers (M-SAAs) are redefining the frontier of electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption by exploiting atomically dispersed sites, programmable coordination environments, and strong metal-support interactions. Unlike conventional absorbers, M-SAAs deliver extraordinary dielectric loss efficiency and broadband absorption, thereby opening new avenues for lightweight, wideband, and adaptive EM protection. Despite these advances, the intrinsic dielectric loss mechanisms and the structure–property correlations between coordination environments and dielectric loss remain poorly understood. This review provides the first atomic-scale mechanistic analysis of M-SAAs, offering a comprehensive dissection of their polarization loss mechanisms, a systematic summary of regulation strategies involving metal species, coordination environments, loading densities, and support architectures, and a fundamental elucidation of the underlying principles governing their dielectric performance. Building on these insights, we propose a forward-looking roadmap encompassing scalable and cost-effective synthesis, exploration of non‑carbon supports, multidimensional structural engineering, and the creation of intelligent, dynamically tunable, and programmable absorption systems. We further outline the key challenges and emerging opportunities of M-SAAs in extreme-environment protection, adaptive sensing, and stealth technologies. This work provides both a theoretical foundation and a visionary outlook for accelerating disruptive breakthroughs in EM compatibility and radiation mitigation.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a rapidly evolving class of porous crystalline materials characterized by the modular assembly of metal nodes and organic linkers. While early research predominantly focused on frameworks with uniform metal centers and single organic ligands, recent advancements have steered toward multicomponent MOFs, materials constructed from multiple metal ions and/or diverse organic ligands. These hybrid architectures offer enhanced structural complexity and functional tunability, enabling synergistic properties and broader application scopes. In this review, we systematically summarize the design principles, synthetic strategies, and structural features of multicomponent MOFs. We further discuss their emerging roles in biomedical applications, highlighting how structural complexity supports multifunctionality, present key examples in drug delivery, imaging, and combination therapy, and outline challenges for clinical translation. Finally, we highlight current challenges and future opportunities in this dynamic research area, with an emphasis on structure-function correlation and rational design

Nanozymes, nanomaterials with enzyme-mimicking activities, have emerged as powerful tools in food safety, owing to their excellent catalytic properties and unique physicochemical characteristics. Although significant progress has been made in utilizing nanozymes for the detection or control of contaminants, existing segmented methods often fail to meet the complicated demands of actual food safety environments. In contrast, the integration of detection and decontamination within a unified nanozyme platform represents a more meaningful and promising strategy. Specifically, nanozyme-based “Detection-Plus” is an integrated platform that simultaneously detects and eliminates food safety hazards through catalytic degradation, adsorption, or sterilization, enabling immediate in situ remediation without separate treatment. This review focuses on the design of nanozyme-based platforms that seamlessly integrate detection with subsequent control measures, such as the targeted efficient sterilization of pathogens, and the catalytic removal or degradation of chemical hazards. By unifying these functions, nanozymes open the path toward intelligent response systems capable of providing comprehensive solutions. This review aims to establish a foundational framework and offer a forward-looking perspective on integrated nanozyme technologies, underscoring their potential to transform food safety assurance across the entire production-to-consumption continuum.

The understanding of noncovalent interactions is essential for the rational design and control of material properties. Nonlinear optical (NLO) effects are particularly relevant in this context, as materials with strong NLO responses find applications in areas such as optical communication and signal processing. Computational quantum chemistry has provided valuable insights into the interplay of the electronic and vibrational counterparts of molecular NLO properties, and considerable effort has been devoted to linking these properties with chemical structure. A key aspect is the role of intermolecular interactions, which can significantly modify optical responses and are quantified through interaction-induced (excess) properties. We first present the progress made in analyzing confinement effects, modeled through analytical potentials, on (hyper)polarizabilities of hydrogen-bonded molecular complexes. In doing so, we account for electronic as well as vibrational counterparts. Confinement leads to structural compression, shortening both covalent and hydrogen bonds and increasing vibrational frequencies. The confinement also induces a reduction in the electronic polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilities, with decreases up to 50% in the second hyperpolarizability under moderate confinement. In contrast, vibrational contributions are less affected, and their relative importance grows under confinement. A breakdown into harmonic and anharmonic terms shows that the latter play a crucial role, especially for vibrational second hyperpolarizabilities. We next focused on our studies on the decomposition of interaction-induced electronic and vibrational (hyper)polarizabilities into terms arising due to the various intermolecular interaction types. For this purpose, we combined the finite-field nuclear relaxation formalism with an interaction energy decomposition scheme. In particular, the decomposition was applied to interaction energy, and the electronic and vibrational contributions to (hyper)polarizabilities, allowing us to quantify how different interaction types selectively influence each property. These results highlight the intricate interplay of interaction types underlying excess electric properties. Finally, we extended the decomposition scheme to analyze interaction-induced changes in IR intensities. By establishing a direct link between nuclear-relaxation polarizabilities and harmonic IR intensities, we were able to partition mode-specific intensity changes into contributions due to interaction types. Applications to stacked, hydrogen-bonded and halogen-bonded complexes are discussed in the review. The new methodology thus provides new insights into the microscopic origins of vibrational spectroscopic signatures of intermolecular interactions.

We next focused on our studies on the decomposition of interaction-induced electronic and vibrational (hyper)polarizabilities into terms arising due to the various intermolecular interaction types. For this purpose, we combined the finite-field nuclear relaxation formalism with an interaction energy decomposition scheme. In particular, the decomposition was applied to interaction energy, and the electronic and vibrational contributions to (hyper)polarizabilities, allowing us to quantify how different interaction types selectively influence each property. These results highlight the intricate interplay of interaction types underlying excess electric properties. Finally, we extended the decomposition scheme to analyze interaction-induced changes in IR intensities. By establishing a direct link between nuclear-relaxation polarizabilities and harmonic IR intensities, we were able to partition mode-specific intensity changes into contributions due to interaction types. Applications to stacked, hydrogen-bonded and halogen-bonded complexes are discussed in the review. The new methodology thus provides new insights into the microscopic origins of vibrational spectroscopic signatures of intermolecular interactions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":289,"journal":{"name":"Coordination Chemistry Reviews","volume":"553 ","pages":"Article 217566"},"PeriodicalIF":23.5,"publicationDate":"2026-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145923421","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}
