In this issue, Jinghua Li et al. review miniaturized electrochemical sensing platforms for quantitative monitoring of glutamate dynamics in the central nervous system. The Minireviews deal with the imaging of neurotransmitters with small-molecule fluorescent probes (Timothy E. Glass et al.), polycatenanes formed of self-assembled metal–organic cages (Javier Martí-Rujas, Antonino Famulari), as well as aluminium in frustrated Lewis pair chemistry (Felix Krämer).
In the original research section, Tao Zhang et al. describe a seesaw effect between nanoparticle and single-atom platinum in the catalytic refining of lignin-derived monomers (see picture). Michael Müller et al. identified and characterized thiamine diphosphate-dependent lyases with an unusual CDG motif. Eugene Y.-X. Chen et al. succeeded in the closed-loop recycling of mixed plastics of polyester and CO2-based polycarbonate to a single monomer. Michiyuki Yoshida et al. investigated the antiferromagnetic interactions through the 13-Å metal–metal distances in heterometallic one-dimensional chains.
