Nucleophilic chiral phosphine catalysis has been prosperous in asymmetric synthesis over the past two decades. Various tunable chiral phosphines display excellent activity and selectivity in asymmetric transformations including acycloaddition reactions and cycloaddition reactions. Enantiomerically enriched cyclic compounds are ubiquitous in natural products and drug molecules. These phosphinecatalyzed reactions provide effective and extensive strategies for the synthesis of a series of complex cyclic compounds as well as the synthesis of chiral compounds which could be easily transformed to carbocycles and heterocycles. This minireview summarizes recent developments in this area and highlights meaningful breakthroughs.

We report the hierarchical assembly of Au nanoparticles on carboxylized carbon nanotubes (c-CNTs) through Cu²⁺ coordination. This route is facile and green, and can easily control the loading density of Au nanoparticles. The c-CNT matrix ensures uniform distribution of Au nanoparticles, which is particularly important for the enrichment of hot spots while preventing their serious agglomeration. Moreover, the cCNT matrix also contributes to the electromagnetic enhancement due to its surface plasmon resonance, and the chemical enhancement due to the adsorption of the target molecules. The resulting Au@c-CNT nanohybrids exhibit a remarkable synergy in SERS compared to neat Au nanoparticles.

The inter-molecular connecting modes and binding sites were closely related to the backbones of the building blocks,i.e., the molecule length determines its binding sites with neighboring molecules in the assemblies while the attaching positions of the N and F atoms dictate its approaching and docking angles. The experimental results demonstrate that multiple weak hydrogen bonds such as C-H…F and C-H…N can be efficiently applied to tune the molecular orientations and the self-assembly structures accordingly.

Gemcitabine (Gem) is currently the first-line chemotherapeutic drug in management of pancreatic cancer, however the therapeutic efficacy of Gem is limited due to its short half-life and poor cell membrane permeability. Here we designed mesoporous silica vesicles (MSVs) with large pore sizes as a novel drug delivery system. The MSVs were synthesized using cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as a structure-directing agent, tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as silica source in n-hexane/water biliquid system. By virtue of the large pore size and large pore volume of the MSVs, Gem was loaded into the mesoporous of MSVs via "nanocasting" method. In vitro drug release experiments of gemcitabineloaded MSVs showed an accelerating release of gemcitabine in acidic condition. These fluorescently labeled MSVs could be effectively internalized by both a human (BxPC-3) and a mouse pancreatic cancer cell lines (Pan02). Additionally, some MSVs could even reach the nuclei of the pancreatic cancer cells. Cell viability assays demonstrated that gemcitabine-loaded MSVs exhibited enhanced anticancer activity in inhibiting the proliferation of BxPC-3 and Pan02 cells compared with free Gem, while the MSVs alone showed no significant cytotoxicity. Our results indicate that our synthesized MSVs might represent a promising novel drug delivery platform for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Threonine-substituted serine octamer ions were generated by electrospray ionization (ESI) and investigated by mass spectrometry and infrared photodissociation (IRPD) spectroscopy. IRPD spectra of[L-Ser₇+L/D-Thr₁]H⁺ and [L-Ser₆+L/D-Thr₂]H⁺ were obtained in the range of 2700-3600 cm^-1. Chiral differentiation was achieved by comparing their IRPD spectra. The main difference located in the range of 3300-3500 cm^-1. And the results indicate the substitution of L-Ser by D-Thr could weaken the intermolecular H-bonds and loosen the original structures of serine octamers.

P-113 is a fragment of natural occurring peptide Histatin 5 found in human saliva. This peptide exhibited broad spectrum of antibacterial and antifungal biological activities. In this study, bifunctional P-113 peptides 2-5 were designed as Sortase A substrates and synthesized by solid support peptide synthesis, where the N-terminus were equipped with glycine and its analogues, and C-terminus were extended with LPETGGS, respectively. Under Sortase A catalyzed condition, head to tail cyclization products 7-10 were afforded in yields from 76% to 93%. The conformation insights of linear peptides 2-5 and cyclic analogues 7-10 in aqueous buffers and in trifluroethanol (TFE) analyzed by circular dichroism (CD) suggested that α-helix structures were produced progressively in hydrophobic environment independent of the cyclization, which displayed the similar behavior as parent peptide P-113.

Miniaturized channel filters are in high demand for many applications such as photonic integrated circuits, information-based technology, and platforms for investigation of light-matter interactions. Recently, several photonic schemes have been proposed to achieve nanofilters, which require sophisticated growth techniques. Here, we have fabricated microdisk whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) resonators through controlled assembly of organic materials with an emulsion-solventevaporation method. Based on this emulsion assembly method, the diameters of microdisks can be easily controlled, and more importantly, a microwire-disk interconnected structure is able to be constructed via one-step assembly. This microwire-waveguide-connected microdisk heterostructure can be utilized as a channel drop filter. Our results have demonstrated a facile way to achieve flexible WGM-based photonic components which can be integrated with other functional devices.

A new series of multi-heterocyclic Schiff base was constructed starting from 4'-(imidazol-1-yl)-acetophenone which was converted to its 2-bromoethanone precursor which on cyclic condensation with thiourea yielded final thiazol-2-amine intermediate (3) to be reacted with substituted aldehydes to generate final imidazolylphenylheterocyclic-2-ylmethylenethiazole-2-amines (4a-4i). New Schiff base was investigated for their in vitro cytotoxic efficacies against a panel of three human cancer cell lines namely, MCF7 (human breast cancer), HCT116 (human colon cancer), and DU145 (human prostate cancer) and one normal skin fibroblast (SF). Most of these synthetic derivatives shown important cytotoxic actions against individual carcinoma cell line collections, but weak actions against SF, which is as anticipated. Observations of SAR suggested that the difference in the characteristics of substituents attached to the Schiff base function leads to the interesting variations within pharmacological effects of resultant molecular systems. Structural analysis performed using FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and CHN analysis for final potent anticancer Schiff base, which warrant further investigations.

A sensitive label-free fluorescent aptasensing strategy for the detection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) has been developed with a metallocyclodextrin, tris(bipyridine) ruthenium(II) complex containing six cyclodextrin units (6CD-Ru), which exhibited much stronger emission signal compared to the parent compound Ru(bpy)₃Cl₂. Furthermore, the emission spectrum showed that the ATP-aptamer (ssDNA) could increase the fluorescence intensity of 6CD-Ru dramatically, attributed to the interaction between aptamer and cyclodextrin, which could provide protection to the ruthenium core from the quenching of emission by oxygen in the solution. With the addition of ATP, the interaction between aptamer and cyclodextrins on 6CD-Ru was diminished, since the ATP/aptamer complex had the priority to be formed, leading to the corresponding reduction of fluorescence intensity, which could be utilized to detect ATP quantitatively. A linear relationship was displayed between the fluorescence and the logarithm of ATP concentrations in the range from 1 nmol/L to 1 μmol/L with the detection limit of 0.5 nmol/L (S/N=3). The proposed fluorescent aptasensing strategy exhibited high sensitivity and specificity, without any labeling or amplification procedures, and it could also be applied for the detection of many other aptamer-specific targets.

Subsequently, the adsorption properties of CMCH toward Ni(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Hg(II), Mn(VII) and Cr(VI) were evaluated. Various factors affecting the uptake behavior such as pH, temperature, contact time and the initial concentration of the metal ions were investigated. The results showed that all adsorption processes fit the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm equation. Significantly, the regeneration experiments showed CMCH can be used as a potentially recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal and recovery of metal ions from wastewater.

An improved biosorbent of thiourea modified chitosan microsphere (TMCM) with high specific surface, favorable mechanical strength and excellent adsorption performance had been synthesized via microfluidic technology. Polyethylene glycol was used as a significant component added in aqueous solution of chitosan to produce such microspheres through droplets forming, chemical crosslinking and pores creating. For the improvement of adsorption capacity, thiourea was considered as an excellent choice in increasing amino functional group by graft modification. The SEM, FTIR and EDS were employed to detect distinct features of TMCM. Copper(II) was used to test the adsorption performance of TMCM. The experimental results indicated that TMCM exhibited higher adsorption capacity (q_e=60.6 mg g^-1) and faster adsorption rate than that non-modified chitosan microsphere (NMCM). The adsorption kinetic was described well by the pseudo-second order kinetic model, which suggested that chemical adsorption along with electrons transferring was dominant in adsorption process.

Its unit cell dimensions are a=32.394(9) Å, b=12.217(4) Å, c=10.175(3) Å, β=97.852(13)° with Z=12 and the refinement converged to R=0.034 and ωR=0.065. Hirshfeld surface analyses, especially d_norm surface and fingerprint plots were used for decoding intermolecular interactions in the crystal network. The optimized geometric parameters, normal mode frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of the present compound were theoretically examined by the DFT/B3LYP method with the LanL2DZ basis set. The thermal and dielectric analyses suggested the presence of ferroelectric phase transition at 314 K.

A simple polyol and sol-gel Stober process were employed for synthesis of YF₃:Tb⁺ (core), YF₃:Tb⁺@LaF₃ (core/shell) and YF₃:Tb⁺@LaF₃@SiO₂ (core/shell/SiO₂) nanoparticles (NPs). The phase purity, crystalinity, morphology, optical and photoluminescence properties were investigated and discussed with the help of various analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction pattern, FE-transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FTIR, UV/vis absorption, energy band gap and emission spectra. XRD and FE-TEM studies indicate the formation of core/shell nanostructure and 10 nm thick amorphous silica surface coating surrounding the core-NPs, which is also confirmed by FTIR spectral results. The surface modifications of core-NPs significantly affect the optical features in the form of energy band gap, which were correlated with particle size of the nanomaterials. The comparative emission spectral results show that after inert layer coating the luminescent core-NPs display stronger emission intensity in respect to core and silica coated core/shell/SiO₂-NPs. The solubility character along with colloidal stability was improved after silica surface modification, whereas luminescent intensity was suppressed causing the surface functionalized with high energy silanol (Si-OH) molecules. These novel luminescent nanomaterials with enhanced emission intensity and excellent solubility in aqueous solvents would be potentially useful for fluorescence bioimaging/optical bio-probe etc.

The thermally expandable microspheres (TEMs) were prepared via suspension polymerization with acrylonitrile (AN), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and methyl acrylate (MA) as monomers and n-hexane as the blowing agent. Meanwhile, a novel type of functional and conductive thermal expandable microsphere was obtained through strongly covering the surface of microsphere by conductive polymers with the mass loading of 1.5%. The optimal conditions to prepare high foaming ratio and equally distributed microcapsules were investigated with AN-MMA-MA in the proportion of 70%/20%/10% (m/m/m), and 25 wt% of n-hexane in oil phase. The further investigation results showed that the unexpanded TEMs were about 30 μm in diameter and the maximum expansion ratio was nearly 125 times of original volume. The polypyrrole (PPy) was smoothly coated on the surface of the TEMs and the expansion property of PPy-coated TEMs was almost the same as the uncoated TEMs. Moreover, the structure and expanding performance of TEMs and PPy-coated TEMs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser particle size analyzer and dilatometer (DIL).

Ru/CeO₂[RC] and Ru/CeO₂/ethylene glycol (EG)[RCE] nanoparticles were produced by performing a simple hydrothermal reaction at 200℃ for 24 h and found to have two distinct morphologies. The RC nanoparticles are phase pure CeO₂; triangular highly crystalline CeCO₃OH nanoparticles are formed from the solution containing EG under the same hydrothermal reaction conditions at pH 8.5. EG plays an important role in the formation of the triangular CeCO₃OH nanoparticles. The polycrystalline CeCO₃OH nanoparticles retain their triangular structure even after calcination at 600℃ in air but are transformed into a pure CeO₂ phase. The room temperature photoluminescence of the RC and RCE nanoparticles and of RCE calcined at 600℃[RCE-600] was also investigated. It was found that the high crystallinity triangular RCE-600 sample exhibits the highest photoluminescence intensity.

P-Type NiO foam with rough nanostructured surface was prepared by the surface treatment of Ni foam, and then it was decorated with n-type ZnO nanopyramids to construct a 3D p-n junction foam. The p-n junction foam was used for electrochemical detection of dopamine and the sensing performance was improved significantly compared with the single NiO and ZnO. High sensitivity (171 μA/mmol/L), fast response (2 s), excellent selectivity and stability were achieved. It was attributed to the introduction of numerous p-n junction interfaces, the interfacial potential barrier played as a tuning factor for the electrochemical determination of dopamine. The results demonstrated it would be an important way to improve the biosensing performance by introducing the p-n junction interfaces.
