Although one of the most promising aqueous batteries, all Zn‐Mn systems suffer from Zn dendrites and the low‐capacity Mn4+/Mn3+ process (readily leading to the occurrence of Jahn–Teller distortion, which in turn causes structural collapse and voltage/capacity fading). Here, the Mn3+ reconstruction and disproportionation are exploited to prepare the stable, Mn2+‐rich manganese oxides on carbon‐cloth (CMOs) in a discharged state through an inverted design, which promotes reversible Mn2+/Mn4+ kinetics and mitigates oxygen‐related redox activity. Such a 1.65 V Mn2+‐rich cathode enable constructing a 2.2 V Zn‐Mn battery, providing a high area capacity of 4.16 mA h cm–2 (25 mA h cm–2 for 10 mL electrolyte) and superior 4000‐cycle stability. Moreover, a flexible hybrid 2.7 V Zn‐Mn battery is constructed using 2‐pH hydrogel electrolytes to demonstrate excellent practicality and stability. A further insight has been gained to the commercial application of aqueous energy storage devices toward low‐cost, high safety, and excellent energy density.
Nine new pentacyclic polyketides, fasamycins G−K (1−5) and formicamycins N−Q (6−9), along with 10 known analogues (10−19), were isolated from a rhizospheric soil-derived Streptomyces sp. KIB-1414. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated by interpretation of NMR and HRMS data and comparisons of CD data. The compounds were active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Escherichia coli strains, with MIC values ranging from 0.20 to 50.00 μg/mL.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
