Enhancing Multi-Resonance Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Emission via Through-Space Heavy-Atom Effect

Academic Background Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology has made remarkable progress in recent years, especially in the field of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials. TADF materials achieve high-efficiency emission by converting triplet excitons into singlet excitons through the reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) pr...

Binolates as Potent Reducing Photocatalysts for Inert-Bond Activation and Reduction of Unsaturated Systems

Academic Background In the field of photocatalysis, the development of efficient and sustainable reducing catalysts has long been a significant research focus. Organic anions have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their sustainability and strong reducing abilities. However, traditional phenolates are limited in their applicati...

Direct Production of o-Xylene from Six-Component BTEXs Using a Channel-Pore Interconnected Metal-Organic Framework

Academic Background In the chemical industry, the separation of benzene derivatives is a critically important and challenging process. Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and the xylene isomers (o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene) typically exist as mixtures in the petroleum industry, collectively referred to as BTEXs. Among them, o-xylene (OX) is a key feed...

Integrating Hydroformylations with Methanol-to-Syngas Reforming

Academic Background With the global demand for sustainable development on the rise, the chemical industry is facing an urgent challenge to transition from fossil fuels to renewable resources. Currently, the carbon skeleton of the vast majority of synthetic chemical products is derived from non-renewable fossil fuels, which not only exacerbates carb...

Modulating Hetero-Multimetallic Atoms in Covalent Organic Frameworks for Efficient Oxidization of Olefin Compounds

In the field of synthetic chemistry, modulating the quantity and location of different metal centers to achieve synergistic, tandem, or cooperative effects has always been a technical challenge. Hetero-multinuclear catalysts have garnered significant attention due to their advantages such as high selectivity, cascading production, and specific chem...
