Selective reduction of nitroaromatics to the corresponding amines generally requires complex conditions, involving pressurized hydrogen, higher temperatures, or organic acids. In this work, we successfully prepared a series porphyrin-based MOF photocatalysts (Pd-PMOFs, In-PMOFs, and In/Pd-PMOFs) via facile solvothermal method for efficient selective anilines with deionized water as hydrogen donor. Being new structured material (monoclinic, C52H40InN6O8Pd), on account abundant pore channels,...

The meaningful and rational engineering of porphyrin-based catalysts with multimetallic active sites is very attractive toward photocatalytic hydrogen generation from water decomposition. Herein, three metal organic frameworks (MOFs) based on meso-tetrakis(4-carboxylphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) were successfully constructed under solvothermal conditions.

Mode-locked fiber lasers are an ideal platform for ultrafast nonlinear physics study, and they have shown many intriguing, yet not fully understood, phenomena such as the optical rogue waves (ORWs) noise-like pulses (NLPs). However, one of major obstacles in study laser dynamics is lack practical measurement techniques round-trip tracking, single-shot, real-time observation time domain at sub-picosecond (ps) resolution. Here we demonstrate automatically synchronized characterization NLPs...
