Of cores! Core–shell Au@metal‐organic‐framework‐5 (MOF‐5) nanoparticles (NPs), in which a single Au NP core is coated with a uniform MOF‐5 shell, were prepared by a facile one‐pot method. The diameter of the Au NP core and the thickness of the MOF‐5 shell are easily tuned by controlling the reaction conditions. These nanoparticles are selective sensors of CO2 in gas mixtures.

All you need is a little inspiration: Inspired by nature, a green and low ‐ cost synthetic method was developed to prepare monodisperse ZnS supraparticles (SPs) with the zinc ‐ blende structure at 37.0 °C. The prepared ZnS SPs can be used as catalysts for the photoinduced dechlorination of 2,2′,4,4′,5,5′ ‐ hexachlorobiphenyl. A degradation efficiency of about 70 % was obtained under irradiation with UV light for 12   hours. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ZnS supraparticles are prepared from aqueous solutions of Zn(ClO4)2, L-cysteine, and NaOH (37 °C, 4 weeks). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
