The semi-rigid polycarboxylic acid, 4′,4′,4′-[(trimethylamino)]-tris[(1,1′-biphenyl)-2-car- boxylic acid] (H 3 TMCA), is first synthesized and used to self-assembly three cadmium coordination polymers , formulated as {[Cd(HTMCA)]•(H 2 O)•(DMA)} n (1), {[Cd(HTMCA)(H 2 O)]·(H 2 O) 5 } n (2), {[Cd(TMCA)] - (CH 3 CH 3 NH 2 ) + •H 2 O} n (3) by the reaction of Cd(NO 3 ) 2 ·4H 2 O under solvothermal conditions. The coordination polymers have been characterized by elemental analysis , IR spectroscopy , thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 is a 2D framework with a point symbol of {6˄3}. Complex 2 exhibit a 3D topology net with point symbol of {10˄3}. Complex 3 display a (3,6)-connected 3D topology net with point symbol of {4.6 2 } 2 {4 2 .6 10 .8 3 }. The structural comparison of complexes 1–3 shows that the final frameworks can be adjusted by changes in the reaction of temperature and solvents. Moreover, the solid-state photoluminescence properties of 1 – 3 have also been investigated.

Tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCIPP) is a widely used organophosphate ester that can adversely affect animal or human health. The intestinal microbiota is critical to human health. High-dose exposure to TDCIPP can markedly affect the intestinal ecosystem of mice, but the effects of long-term exposure to lower concentrations of TDCIPP on the intestinal flora and body metabolism remain unclear. In this study, TDCIPP was administered to Sprague–Dawley rats by gavage at a dose of 13.3 mg/kg bw/day for 90 days. TDCIPP increased the relative weight of the kidneys ( P = 0.017), but had no effect on the relative weight of the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, testes, and ovaries ( P > 0.05). 16 S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that long-term TDCIPP exposure affected the diversity, relative abundance, and functions of rat gut microbes. The serum metabolomics of the rats showed that TDCIPP can disrupt the serum metabolic profiles, result in the up-regulation of 26 metabolites and down-regulation of 3 metabolites, and affect multiple metabolic pathways in rat sera. In addition, the disturbed genera and metabolites were correlated. The functions of some disturbed gut microbes were consistent with the affected metabolic pathways in the sera, and these metabolic pathways were all associated with kidney disease, suggesting that TDCIPP may cause kidney injury in rats by affecting the intestinal flora and serum metabolism.

1,3,5-Tris(1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)benzene (TPBi) is normally used as functional materials in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and the information about the solubilities of TPBi in organic solvents is crucial for the preparation of inks toward inkjet printing technology, which is considered to be a next-generation manufacturing method for OLED production. The solubilities of TPBi in 12 kinds of organic solvents, including n-hexane, cyclohexane, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, dimethyl sulfoxide, tetrahydrofuran, chlorobenzene, and trichloromethane, at the temperature range from 283.15 to 323.15 K and atmospheric pressure were determined based on the isothermal saturation method. The obtained solubility data were correlated by the modified Apelblat equation and the correlated results exhibited good agreement with the experimental data. The nanonization of TPBi was conducted via high gravity-assisted solvent/antisolvent precipitation processing, which showed a beneficial effect for film formation.

The organophosphate flame retardant, tris (1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TCPP), is ubiquitous in environmental matrices; however, there is a paucity of information concerning its systemic toxicity. Herein, we investigated the effects of TCPP exposure on zebrafish neurodevelopment and swimming behavior to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms of neurotoxicity. Under TCPP gradient concentration exposure, the hatching rates were declined by up to 33.3% in 72 hpf, and the malformation rates increased from 15% to 50%. Meanwhile, TCPP led to abnormal behaviors including decreased locomotive activity in the dark and slow/insensitive responses to sound and light stimulation of larvae. TCPP caused excessive apoptosis and ROS accumulation in early embryonic development, with hair cell defects and structural deformity of neuromast. Abnormal expression of neurodevelopment ( pax6a , nova1 , sox11b , syn2a , foxo3a and robo2 ) and apoptosis-related genes ( baxa , bcl2a and casp8 ) revealed molecular mechanisms regarding abnormal behavioral and phenotypic symptoms. Chronic TCPP exposure led to anxiety-like behavior and excessive panic, lower capacity for discrimination and risk avoidance, and conditioned place preference in adults. Social interaction tests demonstrated that long-term TCPP stress resulted in unsociable, eccentric, lonely and silent behaviors in adults. Zebrafish memory and cognitive function were severely reduced as concluded from T-maze tests. Potential mechanisms triggering behavioral abnormality were attributed to histopathological injury of diencephalon, abnormal changes in nerve-related genes at transcription and expression levels, and inhibited activity of AChE by TCPP stress. These findings provide an important reference for risk assessment and early warning to TCPP exposure, and offer insights for prevention/mitigation of pollutant-induced nervous system diseases.

The estuarine ecological environment faces significant threats from contaminants of emerging concern (CECs); yet, the risk posed by CECs to resident organisms remains poorly understood. Here, we employed tiered toxicity testing to investigate the adverse effects and potential mechanisms of tris (1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TCPP) on the early life stages of an estuarine fish, Mugilogobius chulae . TCPP affected the development of M. chulae embryos, including survival, morphology, hatching, and behavior. A concentration-dependent transcriptomic analysis showed that TCPP disrupted 12 neurodevelopment-related KEGG pathways in M. chulae embryos, with five of the 30 % top-ranked pathways related to neurotransmitter signaling. Besides the cholinergic synapse signaling pathway, the glutamatergic signaling pathway (including NMDAR and AMPAR subtypes) may also mediate TCPP-induced neurodevelopmental toxicity. The NMDAR subtype GRIN2B was downregulated at high concentrations. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed a strong interaction between TCPP and GRIN2B, with TCPP binding to the residues Ile153 and Ile188. The results suggest that NMDARs play a crucial role in TCPP-induced neurodevelopmental toxicity toward M. chulae. AOP network analysis predicted that TCPP may impact cognitive functions and memory. Our study provides a novel testing strategy for identifying the mechanisms of toxicity of CECs, a crucial component of ecological risk assessment.

Organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) have been widely used in consumer products to prevent fire spread. However, once released into the atmospheric environment, they may accumulate in humans and undergo metabolic transformation and excretion by urine. In order to clarify the human exposure to OPFRs, a quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe method for the simultaneous determination of urinary OPFRs and their metabolites by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry was developed. After the optimization by a single-factor or orthogonal experiment, the satisfactory recovery (87.8–119%), matrix effect (−8.88–9.29%), method quantitation limit (3.66–159 ng/L), and inter-day repeatability (1.24 − 10.6%) of most analytes were achieved in artificial urine samples. Based on a monitoring test by the developed method, we propose that urinary bis(1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate and di- p -cresyl phosphate could be used to trace human exposure to tris(1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate and tricresyl phosphate, respectively. Most importantly, this is the first study to reveal that 4-hydroxyphenyl diphenyl phosphate (4-OH-TPHP) was dominantly presented in its conjugated form rather than its free form in urine ( p = 0.037). Overall, the obtained results contribute a relatively rapid method to help conduct large-scale urine monitoring for revealing the human exposure and risk of OPFRs.

As a new type of flame retardant , Organic Phosphate Flame Retardant has been widely used worldwide. The purpose of our research is to determine the neurotoxicity of Tris (1,3-dichloroisopropyl) phosphate (TDCPP) to Caenorhabditis elegans and its mechanism. L1 larvae wild-type C. elegans were exposed to different concentrations of TDCPP, and the effects on motor behavior (head thrashes, body bends, pumping times, chemotaxis index), ROS levels, and p38MAPK signaling pathway-related gene expression levels were measured. Three transgenic nematode strains, BZ555, DA1240, and EG1285, were also used to study the effects of TDCPP on nematode dopamine neurons, glutamate neurons, and GABA neurons. The results showed that TDCPP can inhibit the head thrashes and body bends of the nematode, reduce dopamine production, increase the level of ROS in the body, and affect the expression of genes related to the p38MAPK signaling pathway. We next employed ROS production and motor behavior as toxicity assessment endpoints to determine the involvement of p38 MAPK signaling in the regulation of response to TDCPP. The results showed that the nematodes with low expression of pmk-1 were less sensitive to the TDCPP. It was suggested that TDCPP had neurotoxicity and regulated neurotoxicity to C. elegans by activating the p38-MAPK signaling pathway. The research in this article provides important information for revealing the environmental health risks of organophosphorus flame retardants and their toxic mechanism of action.

Tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) has been frequently detected in environmental media and biological samples. However, knowledge of its adverse health consequences is limited. In the current study, Caenorhabditis elegans ( C. elegans , L1 larvae) were exposed to TDCPP at environmentally relevant concentrations (control, 0.1, 1, 100 and 1000 μg L −1 ) for 72 h to explore any association between TDCPP and the aging process. Some of the degenerative age-related indicators were observed, including locomotion behaviors and lifespan. As crucial biomarkers of aging, the accumulation of lipofuscin, and lipid peroxidation (LPO) products exemplified by 4-hydroxynon-2-enal (4-HNE) were detected. This product forms as a result of oxidative stress , as confirmed by an N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) pharmacological assay. Moreover, a significant increase in reactive oxide species (ROS) production in a dose-dependent manner using a fluorescent probe was observed. For the underlying molecular mechanism of the above aging phenotypes, significantly upregulated transcription of genes related to antioxidant systems, especially a subset of glutathione S-transferase ( gst-5, gst-6, gst-9, gst-10, gst-19, gst-24, gst-26, gst-29, gst-33, and gst-38 ), was found by RNA-Seq and further confirmed by RT-qPCR. The elevated glutathione S-transferase (GST) was attributed to the significant increase in 4-HNE because mutations in gst-5 and gst-24 inhibited the conjugation of GSTs with 4-HNE. Therefore, GST play an indispensable role in the detoxification process of TDCPP exposure and further confirmed LPO accumulation at the molecular mechanism level. In conclusion, TDCPP accelerated the aging process induced by the LPO products, 4-HNE, response to reactive oxidative species in C. elegans .

The flame retardant tri (1, 3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCIPP) is widely present in environmental media and organisms. People have paid much attention to the growth and developmental toxicity of TDCIPP, but there is little information about its cardiotoxicity and potential mechanisms. In this study, marine medaka ( Oryzias melastigma ) embryos were exposed to TDCIPP solutions (0, 0.05, 0.5, 5, and 50 μg/L) for 21 days to investigate the adverse effects of TDCIPP on cardiac development. The results showed that TDCIPP exposure altered the heart rate at different stages of embryonic development. In addition, 50 μg/L TDCIPP resulted in increased sinus venosus (SV)–bulbus arteriosus (BA) distance, pericardial cysts, and cardiac linearization in newly hatched fish. During embryonic development, the expression level of key genes regulating cardiac development is disturbed. The early stage of cardiac development is the sensitive window period for the toxic effects of TDCIPP. Oxidative stress was observed in newly hatched juveniles, but no significant lipid peroxidation damage was observed. In addition, vitellogenin (VTG) levels in juvenile fish were significantly reduced. Our results show that TDCIPP exposure induces cardiotoxicity in marine medaka embryos, which is induced in the early stages and promotes heart defects by amplifying inflammatory responses at a later stage.

Flame retardants , such as Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), Tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) and tributyl phosphate (TBP), are frequently detected in surface water. However, the effects of FRs exposure on aquatic organisms especially freshwater microalgae are still unclear. In this study, the toxicities of TBBPA, TDCPP and TBP to microalgae Chlorella sorokiniana , in terms of growth inhibition, photosynthetic activity inhibition and oxidative damage, were investigated, and according ecological risks were assessed. The results showed that TBBPA, TDCPP and TBP had inhibitory effects on C. sorokiniana , with 96 h EC 50 (concentration for 50% of maximal effect) values of 7.606, 41.794 and 49.996 mg/L, respectively. Fv / Fm decreased as the increase of exposure time under 15 mg/L TBBPA. Under 50 mg/L TDCPP and 80 mg/L TBP exposure, Fv / Fm decreased significantly after 24 h. However, Fv / Fm rose after 96 h, indicating that the damaged photosynthetic activity was reversible. The content of chlorophyll a decreased, as the increase of TBBPA concentration from 3 to 15 mg/L. However, chlorophyll a increased first and then decreased, as the increase of TDCPP and TBP concentrations from 0 to 50 mg/L and 0–80 mg/L, respectively. Results indicated that C. sorokiniana could use the phosphorus of TDCPP and TBP to ensure the production of chlorophyll a . The risen content of reactive oxygen species , malondialdehyde as well as superoxide dismutase activity indicated that exposure to FRs induced oxidative stress . Additionally, the risk quotients showed that tested FRs had ecological risks in natural waters or wastewaters. This study provides insights into the toxicological mechanisms of different FRs toward freshwater microalgae for better understanding of according environmental risks.
