Chemical oxidation of a double-twisted nanographene
Zhiyu ZhangYoshifumi Hashikawa (Kyoto University) and Chaolumen* (朝鲁门, 内蒙古大学)
👉 A dicationic double-twisted nanographene exhibited an intense NIR-II absorption band tailing to 1500 nm as well as a high dissymmetry factor of −2.09% at 1443 nm.
👉 A poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) probe material that is rich in I2 interaction sites was developed, and a green and pollution-free electrochemical method was used to detect gaseous I2 using PIL-based film sensors.
👉 A hydrazone-linked COF (DvDf-C3XJ-COF) with hydrogen-bond reinforcement and abundant coordination sites was synthesized, exhibiting strong fluorescence and high sensitivity/selectivity for Hg2+ detection, with a detection limit of 1.65 × 10−6 M.
