Turning dead leaves into an active multifunctional material as evaporator, photocatalyst, and bioplastic
Large numbers of leaves fall off trees each autumn. Here, the authors turn dead leaves into an active material which acts as bioplastic and shows high performance in solar water evaporation, photocatalytic H 2 production and antibiotic degradation.

Valorization of waste biodegradable polyester for methyl methacrylate production
Biodegradation of polyesters such as polylactic acid (PLA), which could serve as a carbon source for value-added chemicals, leads to CO 2 emissions. Here the authors develop a two-step catalytic process to convert PLA into methyl methacrylate, a key building-block molecule, for sustainable valorization of waste PLA.

In-situ forming dynamic covalently crosslinked nanofibers with one-pot closed-loop recyclability
Polymeric nanofibers are attractive nanomaterials owing to their high surfacearea- to-volume ratio and superior flexibility but designing durable and recyclable polymer nanofibers is challenging. Here, the authors integrate the concept of covalent adaptable networks to produce dynamic covalently crosslinked nanofibers via electrospinning.

Designing covalent organic frameworks with Co-O 4 atomic sites for efficient CO 2 photoreduction
A class of inexpensive aminoanthraquinone organic dyes are shown to facilitate visible-light-driven CO 2 reduction. Overall reaction efficiencies were found to be optimal when both electron donating and accepting groups were on a single dye molecule.

Janus-type emission from a cyclometalated iron( iii ) complex
Noble metals dominate the field of photosensitizers and luminophores. Now, an approach incorporating cyclometalating and carbene functions into Fe III complexes has been shown to enable dual emission from the opposing ligand-to-metal and metal-to-ligand charge-transfer states. The latter shows an exceptionally long lifetime of 4.6 ns and is quenched by oxygen and other quenchers.

Counting steps
The use of step count as a metric of synthetic efficiency carries opportunities and challenges. Here, proposals are made to standardize what constitutes a synthetic step and how steps are counted. These proposals may be beneficial in the holistic evaluation of published synthetic routes.

Abstract Are there circumstances under which scientists and engineers doing their ordinary jobs can be thought of as participants in a social movement? The technoscientists analyzed in this article are at the forefront of a new way of doing chemistry; they are attempting to redesign chemical products and synthesis pathways to significantly reduce health effects and environmental damage from industrial chemicals.
