    <p>Ingenuity Pathway Analysis of gene sets differentially expressed on the first day of myocardial infarction versus 6 months after MI or versus control group was performed. Functional categories are represented on the x-axis. The significance is expressed as the negative exponent on the p-value calculated for each function on the y-axis of the diagram, increasing with bar height.</p

    Electrochemical Capture and Release of CO<sub>2</sub> in Aqueous Electrolytes Using an Organic Semiconductor Electrode

    Developing efficient methods for capture and controlled release of carbon dioxide is crucial to any carbon capture and utilization technology. Herein we present an approach using an organic semiconductor electrode to electrochemically capture dissolved CO<sub>2</sub> in aqueous electrolytes. The process relies on electrochemical reduction of a thin film of a naphthalene bisimide derivative, 2,7-bis­(4-(2-(2-ethylhexyl)­thiazol-4-yl)­phenyl)­benzo­[lmn]­[3,8]­phenanthroline-1,3,6,8­(2H,7H)-tetraone (NBIT). This molecule is specifically tailored to afford one-electron reversible and one-electron quasi-reversible reduction in aqueous conditions while not dissolving or degrading. The reduced NBIT reacts with CO<sub>2</sub> to form a stable semicarbonate salt, which can be subsequently oxidized electrochemically to release CO<sub>2</sub>. The semicarbonate structure is confirmed by in situ IR spectroelectrochemistry. This process of capturing and releasing carbon dioxide can be realized in an oxygen-free environment under ambient pressure and temperature, with uptake efficiency for CO<sub>2</sub> capture of ∼2.3 mmol g<sup>–1</sup>. This is on par with the best solution-phase amine chemical capture technologies available today
