A simple solution combustion method has been adopted to prepare the above materials in less than 10 min with metal nitrates as the metal loll source and urea as fuel.

Optical absorption extended into the Visible region, at least LIP to 550 nm, demonstrates an effective reduction of optical band gap due to the formation of solid Solution. A new feature observed just above O2p valence band in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) suggests the creation of N 2p states from InN; the N Is core level XPS result too confirms nitride contribution. Raman spectroscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry results show direct In-N, Zn-N. and In-N-Zn fragments in (Zn1-zInz)(O1-x,N-x).

	2-Methylfuran is a perfect green solution on the pathway of finding alternative fuels. We report here for the first time the continuous production of 2-methylfuran (2-MF), a sustainable biofuel from biomass-derived furfural (FFA), over an industrial Cu-ZnO-Al2O3 (CZA) catalyst. The modified coprecipitation method provides a uniformly dispersed crystalline structure to the synthesized catalysts, along with intended copper (Cu) loading achievement. Different Cu loadings affect the catalytic behavior and activity. Hence, CZA catalysts with two Cu loadings of 9.8 and 4.7% were studied in detail, denoted as C1 and C2, respectively. The catalysts were characterized via XRD, N-2 adsorption, H-2-TPR, NH3-TPD, XPS, ICP-MS, and TEM. Remarkably, the prepared catalysts demonstrate balanced acid sites with mesopores, a high surface area and pore volume, and better controlled nanoparticle size promoting catalytic activity. TEM and H-2-TPR studies reveal a better Cu dispersion. Existence of Cu2+ and Cu (+) even after reduction by XPS study proves the efficiency of the synthesized catalysts. Furthermore, TGA indicates the stability of CZA catalysts. To understand catalytic activity and selectivity, the investigation was carried out in a packed-bed fixed-bed stainless steel reactor. Better physiochemical properties result in high FFA conversion of 33.8% and selectivity of 99.6% for 2-MF. No side products were formed during reaction otherwise improbable via the continuous method. Compared with available literature, the CZA catalyst was found to exhibit superior catalytic performance. The reaction kinetics of furfural hydrogenation to 2-methylfuran was investigated, and it was found that the reaction order is high, and the activation energy was 61.2 kJ/mol. The rate constant k clearly obeyed the Arrhenius law from 180 to 220 degrees C. In addition, evaluation of reaction kinetics also indicated the absence of ring hydrogenation and decarbonylation products, which is difficult to achieve. Finally, the process shows significant economic viability, which resulted in the minimum levelized production cost for 2-methylfuran of 173,068.16 \$/ton with 78.32% overall energy efficiency.&lt;/p&gt;

	Compounds containing carbon-boron bonds serve as valuable intermediates for constructing more complex molecules by transforming these bonds into other carbon-element bonds. The catalytic dehydrogenative borylation of carbon-hydrogen bonds using HBpin presents an appealing method for synthesizing carbon-boron bonds. While this approach has been extensively explored with noble metals for various types of carbon-hydrogen bonds, its application with manganese-based catalysts remains rare. This study explores a dehydrogenative borylation process employing an Earth-abundant transition metal catalyst, FcbpyMn(CO)3Br (Mn(i)), in combination with HBpin under mild conditions. Arylalkynes featuring electron-withdrawing, electron-donating, and heteroaryl substituents yielded good to excellent results. Thorough DFT calculations were performed to understand the mechanism.&lt;/p&gt;
