Mashup Score: 3Discrete chiral organic nanotubes by stacking pillar[5]arenes using covalent linkages - 1 year(s) ago
Shi and Fa et al. report covalent organic nanotubes with 5-fold symmetry by stacking two pillar-shaped macrocycles through dynamic covalent linkages. Three different chiral nanotubes are separated, providing one-dimensional channels with different chirality. When binding with guest molecules, two pillar[5]arene cavities communicate with each other, resulting in allosteric binding affinities.

Mashup Score: 3The kinetics and potential dependence of the hydrogen evolution reaction optimized for the basal-plane Te vacancy site of MoTe2 - 1 year(s) ago
The synthesized MoTe2 consists of both 2H and 1T′ phases with a Te vacancy; increasing the vacancy further via Ar plasma treatment enhances hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity. The theoretical and experimental kinetics show good agreement with the HER kinetics on the Te-vacant MoTe2 surface.

Mashup Score: 2
The O–H bond dissociation free energies (BDFEs) and their distribution are reported for nickel oxide electrode surfaces. These BDFEs and the H-atom binding isotherms are remarkably independent of any changes in the solvent in contact. The unprecedented medium independence establishes these as important intrinsic parameters to describe metal oxide redox reactivity.

Mashup Score: 0In operando investigations of oscillatory water and carbonate effects in MEA-based CO2 electrolysis devices - 1 year(s) ago
Membrane electrode assembly CO2 electrolyzers allow commercially relevant current densities. However, there is limited understanding on why or how CO2 electrolysis shifts toward hydrogen production. Herein, operando X-ray scattering reveals a direct observation of salt precipitation and electrolyte flooding in the copper gas diffusion electrode (GDE). The observed oscillations in selectivity and…

Mashup Score: 1Structurally distinct PARP7 inhibitors provide new insights into the function of PARP7 in regulating nucleic acid-sensing and IFN-β signaling - 1 year(s) ago
Sanderson et al. describe a potent and selective inhibitor of PARP7. Cellular investigations using this inhibitor confirm PARP7s roles in AHR signaling regulation and type I interferon signaling. This inhibitor will be a useful tool for further studies into PARP7 biology.

Mashup Score: 1Chlorine-promoted copper catalysts for CO2 electroreduction into highly reduced products - 1 year(s) ago
Chlorine modification of copper electrocatalysts can be beneficial for conversion of carbon dioxide selectively into highly reduced products, but poor understanding overshadows the potential to tailor catalysts. Here, Zou and Veenstra et al. reveal how the copper phase and chlorine interact to create a promotional effect, providing design guidelines for copper catalysts.

Mashup Score: 1Full-volatility emission framework corrects missing and underestimated secondary organic aerosol sources - 1 year(s) ago
Organic aerosol is an important air pollutant worldwide that influences both human health and climate. The concentration and constituents of organic aerosol have long been poorly reproduced by air-quality models. To tackle this problem, Chang et al. focused on organic emission inventory, the primary input of air-quality models. By introducing a new emission framework with a full volatility…

Mashup Score: 1Stepwise photoassisted decomposition of carbohydrates to H2 - 1 year(s) ago
Biomass photoreforming is an advanced way of providing sustainable H2, whereas a maximized H2 yield relies on high extent of C–C bond breaking. Here, relying on a “C–C bond first” strategy that C–C bonds of carbohydrates are broken first over Ta-CeO2, carbohydrates are converted to C1 liquid hydrogen carriers (LHCs, consisting of HCOOH and HCHO), which release H2 in high yield when degrading….
