Although gold is the subject of one of the most ancient themes of investigation in science, its renaissance now leads to an exponentially increasing number of publications, especially in the context of emerging nanoscience and nanotechnology with nanoparticles and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). We will limit the present review to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), also called gold colloids. AuNPs are the most stable metal nanoparticles, and they present fascinating aspects such as their assembly of multiple types involving materials science, the behavior of the individual particles, size-related electronic, magnetic and optical properties (quantum size effect), and their applications to catalysis and biology. Their promises are in these fields as well as in the bottom-up approach of nanotechnology, and they will be key materials and building block in the 21st century. Whereas the extraction of gold started in the 5th millennium B.C. near Varna (Bulgaria) and reached 10 tons per year in Egypt around 1200-1300 B.C. when the marvelous statue of Touthankamon was constructed, it is probable that “soluble” gold appeared around the 5th or 4th century B.C. in Egypt and China. In antiquity, materials were used in an ecological sense for both aesthetic and curative purposes. Colloidal gold was used to make ruby glass 293 Chem. Rev. 2004, 104, 293−346

Since the discovery of mechanically exfoliated graphene in 2004, research on ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials has grown exponentially in the fields of condensed matter physics, material science, chemistry, and nanotechnology. Highlighting their compelling physical, chemical, electronic, and optical properties, as well as their various potential applications, in this Review, we summarize the state-of-art progress on the ultrathin 2D nanomaterials with a particular emphasis on their recent advances. First, we introduce the unique advances on ultrathin 2D nanomaterials, followed by the description of their composition and crystal structures. The assortments of their synthetic methods are then summarized, including insights on their advantages and limitations, alongside some recommendations on suitable characterization techniques. We also discuss in detail the utilization of these ultrathin 2D nanomaterials for wide ranges of potential applications among the electronics/optoelectronics, electrocat...

Recent Advances in Ultrathin Two-Dimensional Nanomaterials

BACKGROUND Cancer genome profiling of cytology specimens using next-generation sequencing (NGS) requires adequate and good-quality DNA. Genomic examination of cytology samples was conventionally performed on cell block (CB) or smear specimens than on residual liquid-based cytology (LBC) specimens, which are high-quality DNA sources even after long-term storage. METHODS We estimated tumor fractions of 37 residual LBC specimens, including 30 fine needle aspiration (FNA) samples from the thyroid (12 papillary thyroid carcinomas and two malignant lymphomas), lymph node (13 metastatic carcinomas and one malignant lymphoma), and breast cancer (one phyllodes tumor and one invasive ductal carcinoma), two pancreatic carcinoma samples, and five liquid (ascites, pleural effusion, and cerebrospinal fluid) samples. The DNA was extracted from all samples and subjected to NGS using a customized cancer gene panel comprising 28 cancer-related genes. RESULTS NGS analysis revealed somatic mutations corresponding to pathological diagnosis with adequate variant allele frequency (VAF) in 24 LBC specimens, which had significantly higher tumor fraction (72.5% ± 4.9%). Ten cases, including the five fluid samples, had very small tumor fractions (7.5% ± 2.3%) to obtain sufficient VAF. Other two samples had high tumor fractions but showed very low VAF, indicating the presence of fusion genes. The remaining one sample yielded no DNA recovery. CONCLUSION The residual LBC specimens collected by FNA from the thyroid gland and lymph node were verified to carry high tumor fraction and could serve as an alternate source for molecular testing to screen and diagnose cancers without the use of CB or smears.

Our recent achievements relating to photofunctional molecules are addressed. Section 1 discloses a new concept of photoisomerization. Pyridylpyrimidine-copper complexes undergo a ring inversion that can be modulated by the redox state of the copper center. In combination with an intermolecular photoelectron transfer (PET) initiated by the metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) transition of the Cu(I) state, we realize photonic regulation of the ring inversion. Section 2 reports on the first examples of heteroleptic bis(dipyrrinato)zinc(II) complexes. Conventional homoleptic bis(dipyrrinato)zinc(II) complexes suffered from low fluorescence quantum yields, whereas the heteroleptic ones feature bright fluorescence even in polar solvents. Section 3 describes our new findings on Pechmann dye, which was first synthesized in 1882. New synthetic procedures for Pechmann dye using dimethyl bis(arylethynyl)fumarate as a starting material gives rise to its new structural isomer. We also demonstrate potentiality of a donor-acceptor-donor type of Pechmann dye in organic electronics.

Pd-catalyzed synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical siloxanes

A (phenylenediselenolato)cobalt complex dimer, [Co(η5-C5H5)(Se2C6H4)]2 (1), was synthesized by a reaction of carbonyl(η5-cyclopentadienyl)diiodocobalt(III) ([Co(η5-C5H5)I2(CO)]) with poly(o-diselenobenzene). The structure of 1, determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, was found to be located in the space group of P21/c (No. 14), with a = 9.3346(5) A, b = 11.6477(9) A, c = 10.2179(5) A, β = 111.491(1)°, and Z = 2. Covalent Co−Se bonds bridge the metal centers. In solution, dimers and monomers coexist at equilibrium. The dissociation equilibrium constant of 1 in solution was evaluated by 1H NMR spectra at several temperatures between 20 and 80 °C. Dissociation enthalpies/entropies were found to be 50/110, 60/120, and 88 kJ mol-1/200 J K-1 mol-1 in dimethyl sulfoxide-d6, benzene-d6, and chloroform-d1, respectively.
