In this study, nanoporous <i>SiO</i><sub>2</sub> derived from the shells of industrially cultured diatom microalgae is successfully used as a template for synthesizing <i>SiO<sub>x</sub></i> via the magnesiothermic reduction reaction (MgTR), while the effectiveness of different carbon coating (CC) strategies to produce diatom-<i>SiO<sub>x</sub></i>/C from glucose as carbon precursor is thoroughly analyzed.

Key parameters for evaluating the above-mentioned structures include their solar reflectance (albedo) and long-wavelength infrared emissivity. Results show the cooling power that can be achieved by an ideal RC material with a solar reflectance of 100% and long-wave infrared emissivity of 100% is 164.8 W·m<sup>−2</sup>. In practice, materials exhibiting a cooling power as high as 160.8 W·m<sup>−2</sup> are fabricated. Further analysis shows if 1% of Earth's surface are to be covered with this material the terrestrial RF will decrease by 1.61 W·m<sup>−2</sup> (from 0.6 to −1.01 W·m<sup>−2</sup>). The results demonstrate that RC materials with high solar reflectivity and emissivity offer substantial cooling benefits and can reduce RF when implemented on large scales.

Herein, this study reports nickel phosphide (Ni<sub>2</sub>P) and graphitic carbon nitride (GCN) nanosheets as an interfacial catalyst for the effective and efficient transfer hydrogenation of quinoline. The significance of the developed interface between Ni<sub>2</sub>P and GCN is revealed by the detailed spectroscopic and theoretical investigations, which enhances the dissociation of hydrogen source and the substrate interaction with the surface of the catalyst, thereby enhancing the selective transformation of quinoline to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline. In the proposed transfer hydrogenation protocol for quinoline, formic acid is utilized as a bio-renewable hydrogen source, which serves as a potential replacement for molecular hydrogen. Further, detailed optimization studies are carried out to achieve good selectivity and product yield by varying reaction parameters.
