Water contamination caused by textile and industrial dyes is currently among the most important issues facing humanity that require urgent attention. Organic pollutants are harmful and can cause cancer in both humans and aquatic life. Even small amounts of these pollutants in water can lead to grave health problems. One promising way to clean up these pollutants is through degradation, using oxysulfide-based photocatalysts. These materials are effective because of their advanced optical and structural properties. The Sn-Mo(O,S) 3 catalysts were prepared through an easy precipitation process conducted at low temperatures. Different techniques were used to examine the catalyst's shape, structure, electrical properties, chemical makeup, and how it interacts with light. The Sn-Mo(O,S) 3 oxy-sulfide nanoparticle was successfully used to break down organic pollutants through photocatalytic processes. Among the samples made, the SMOS-25 catalyst showed the best performance in breaking down methylene blue dye. The effectiveness of the SMOS-25 catalyst was tested by seeing how well they could break down organic dye pollutant when exposed to visible light. The SMOS-25 nanoparticle was able to remove 98.9 % MB dye from water within 105 min under visible light. In this system, the main substance responsible for breaking down the dye is hydroxyl radical ( • OH).

N/O -glycans in various human seminal plasma (hSP) glycoproteins, especially α2,3- and α2,6-sialylation levels, are closely associated with semen quality. However, effective differentiation of sialyl linkage isomer remains unachieved. Here, we employed our previously developed glycoqueuing strategy for isomer-specific quantitative analysis of sialylated N/O- glycans released from hSP. A total of 21 exclusively α2,6-sialylated and 14 α2,3-sialylated (bearing α2,3-linked sialic acids) N- glycan isomers were detected, and the relative abundance of α2,6-sialylation among these sialylated N -glycans reached 61.40 %. For O -glycans, seven monosialic and five disialylated species were observed, and all were confirmed to be α2,3-sialylated. Nonsialylated N/O- glycan isomers were simultaneously quantified via hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Specifically, 21 nonsialylated N- glycan isomers were identified, among which the relative abundances of oligomannose-type and complex-type glycan were each approximately 50 %. All O- glycans exhibited core 1 or core 2 structures, including 12 α2,3-sialylated and 26 nonsialylated species. Notably, four isomers separated from two newly discovered nonsialylated O -glycan compositions H2N1F1 and H2N1F2 (H: hexose, N: N- acetylgalactosamine, F: fucose) were identified in hSP. Additionally, sialylated and nonsialylated N/O- glycans were all highly fucosylated (16.98 %–67.92 %), and bore numerous Lewis X and Lewis Y structures. The detailed glycan structural and distribution data, particularly α2,3/α2,6-sialylation profiles, not only provides a reference for constructing the hSP glycomic fingerprint, but also supports in-depth investigation of hSP glycan functions in reproduction and exploration of novel glycan markers for clinical semen quality detection.

Rational design of heterojunction is of vital importance for addressing the rapid recombination problem of photogenerated charge carriers in photoreactions. Herein, a highly efficient Z-scheme heterojunction with interfacial Zn-O-Ce bonds was successfully fabricated by hybridizing 3D flower-like hierarchical ZnCo 2 O 4 (ZCO) microspheres with CeO 2 nano particles (NPs) and used to photocatalytic remove multiple pollutants. These features of Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism and chemically bonded interface not only reserved the strong oxidation–reduction ability of CeO 2 /ZCO hybrid but also speeded up electron migration from CeO 2 to ZCO. Meanwhile, the 3D hierarchical structure provided rich photocatalytic reaction sites and increased light harvesting ability. Thus, the as-prepared CeO 2 /ZCO displayed an extraordinary photocatalytic decomposition of Ciprofloxacin (CIP) and Basic Fuchsin (BF), removal rate as high as 87.6 % and 90.7 %, respectively. This work can enlighten a new insight to design versatile hetero-catalysts for solar energy conversion.

Electronic structure modulation of active sites plays a critical role in oxidation catalysis reactions but remains insufficiently explored in polyoxometalate (POM) systems. Here, we employ Anderson-type polyoxomolybdates (XMo 6 , X = Fe, Co, Ni) as molecular platforms to elucidate how central transition metals regulate the electronic properties and catalytic behavior of Mo=O sites. Through atomic-precision synthesis and heterogenization on ionic liquid-modified h -BN, a series of MMo 6 -C 4 /BN were constructed and enabled precise structure–activity correlation in oxidative desulfurization (ODS). Among them, NiMo 6 -C 4 /BN exhibits the best performance, achieving 100 % DBT removal within 50 min at 60 °C. DFT calculations reveal that the electron-withdrawing Ni center optimally modulates the Mo d-band center, resulting in the most favorable reaction energetics, which fundamentally explains the superior activity. Furthermore, Radical trapping and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements identified • OH and • O 2 − as the key reactive species involved in the oxidation process. The catalyst also demonstrated strong practical potential by achieving a 69 % desulfurization rate in real diesel. This work establishes a general strategy for electronic tuning in POM catalysts and provides molecular-level insights into active site engineering for advanced oxidative catalysis.

Catalytic pyrolysis of waste plastics under nitrogen-rich conditions to produce nitrogenous compounds represents a highly promising technological approach. It can achieve high-value conversion of waste plastics and expand the synthesis process of nitrogenous products. This work uses polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as the raw material and urea as the nitrogen source to produce aromatic amines, and prepares Zn/CuCo 2 O 4 spinel catalysts to enhance the above synthesis process. The results indicate that the optimal mass ratio of PET and urea is 1:1, where the relative content of nitrogenous compounds in the liquid product reaches 86.69 %, and the selectivity of aromatic amines reaches 52.48 %. The addition of the spinel catalyst significantly improves the selectivity of aromatic amines. Compared with the CuCo 2 O 4 catalyst, ZnCo 2 O 4 exhibits superior catalytic conversion performance. The optimal addition ratio of the ZnCo 2 O 4 catalyst is 15 %, and the optimal pyrolysis temperature is 550 ℃. Under these conditions, the selectivity of aromatic amines increases by 11.11 % compared to non-catalytic pyrolysis. In addition, the obtained solid residue containing the used catalyst is considered as a potential adsorbent and can be applied in water treatment. It has significant removal ability for methylene blue dye. This work not only provides a feasible approach for the production of aromatic amines, but also provides important support for the high-value utilization of waste plastics.

Multi-colored carbon dots (CDs) have attracted significant research interest due to their wide range of applications. However, the mechanisms underlying their luminescence and regulation still require further exploration. Herein, blue, green, and orange CDs with different quantum yields were successfully prepared, by changing the thermal degradation behavior of the waste wheat bran/o-phenylenediamine via adjusting the pH of the acidic hydrothermal conditions. The structure–photoluminescence property relationship of the prepared multi-colored CDs was thoroughly analyzed and discussed, aiming to provide new insights into the luminescence red-shift mechanisms of CDs. It was found that the larger sp2 domains, higher graphitization of carbon cores, increased graphitic nitrogen, and elevated levels of CO functional groups contribute to the CDs' lower band gap, resulting in a red-shift of the emission fluorescence. Among them, the elevated levels of CO functional groups are normally neglected for their contribution in the red-shift of CDs. Additionally, the prepared CDs were explored for their application in monitoring Fe3+ content in aquatic environments. A detection limit of 378.76 nM was obtained for the prepared CDs.

Summary The large-scale applications of energy storage system via lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) put forward demands for high capacity, high safety, and low cost of materials. Covalent organic polymers have attracted extensive attention because of their high capacity, flexible structural design, high safety, abundance, and low cost. Here, 2,3,5,6-tetraamino-p-benzoquinone and hexaketocyclohexane octahydrate were chosen as monomers to construct the covalent organic framework (TH-COF) cathode materials with active C=O and C=N groups. The TH-COF was further composed with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and the prepared TH-COF/rGO cathode provided a capacity of 135 mAh g −1 after 600 cycles at 1 C current density. In addition, after 100 cycles, the cathode delivered capacities of 118 and 73 mAh g −1 at the high current densities of 5 C and 20 C, respectively, displaying superior rate performances. The TH-COF/rGO electrode exhibited high capacity and stability, making it a promising cathode material for the next generation LIBs.

The key to the development of metal–air batteries is the research on efficient and stable non-noble metal bifunctional electrocatalysts that can simultaneously catalyze the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in the same electrolyte. Ce–O–C single-component materials have abundant oxygen vacancies and commendable electrical conductivity; therefore, they have great application potential in bifunctional catalysis. However, their application is limited by the harsh synthesis conditions (pyrolysis at >1750 °C). Herein, CeO2C2/NC material is obtained during the pyrolysis of Ce-MOF at 900 °C, and it is found that the CeO2C2/NC material has a satisfactory ORR/OER bifunctional catalytic effect. In addition, CeO2C2/NC possesses good electrochemical properties, such as ORR Eonset = 0.92 V, E1/2 = 0.83 V (vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)), and an excellent Tafel slope of 77.7 mV dec–1, outperforming the commercial Pt/C catalyst. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis reveals that Ce3+ and its chemisorbed oxygen (Oβ) percentages of 50.33 and 79.37%, respectively, are the main reasons for the production of abundant oxygen vacancies. The prepared Ce–O–C series material will be applied to zinc–air batteries (ZABs), which is expected to improve the comprehensive performance of ZABs. The results can provide ideas for the development of ORR/OER single-component bifunctional catalysts.

The biological process, 3-O-galactosylation, is important in plant cells. To understand the mechanism of the reduction of flavonol antioxidative activity by 3-O-galactosylation, myricetin-3-O-galactoside (M3OGa) and myricetin aglycone were each incubated with 2 mol α,α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH•) and subsequently comparatively analyzed for radical adduct formation (RAF) products using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS) technology. The analyses revealed that M3OGa afforded an M3OGa–DPPH adduct (m/z873.1573) and an M3OGa–M3OGa dimer (m/z958.1620). Similarly, myricetin yielded a myricetin–DPPH adduct (m/z711.1039) and a myricetin–myricetin dimer (m/z634.0544). Subsequently, M3OGa and myricetin were compared using three redox-dependent antioxidant analyses, including DPPH•-trapping analysis, 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl 3-oxide radical (PTIO•)-trapping analysis, and•O2inhibition analysis. In the three analyses, M3OGa always possessed higher IC50values than those of myricetin. Conclusively, M3OGa and its myricetin aglycone could trap the free radical via a chain reaction comprising of a propagation step and a termination step. At the propagation step, both M3OGa and myricetin could trap radicals through redox-dependent antioxidant pathways. The 3-O-galactosylation process, however, could limit these pathways; thus, M3OGa is an inferior antioxidant compared to its myricetin aglycone. Nevertheless, 3-O-galactosylation has a negligible effect on the termination step. This 3-O-galactosylation effect has provided novel evidence that the difference in the antioxidative activities of phytophenols exists at the propagation step rather than the termination step.

Magnesium alloy with good application potential has a poor corrosion resistance, so it is essential to develop a new corrosion inhibitor and investigate the inhibition mechanism for magnesium alloy. In this work, three vapor phase corrosion inhibitors (VCIs) were used for AZ31B magnesium alloy under a simulated ocean–atmosphere environment, and the inhibition behaviors and mechanisms were studied. The inhibition performances of the three VCIs were evaluated by Digital Still Camera, electrochemical tests and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to further explore the inhibition mechanism. Compared to benzoic acid and ammonium benzoate, o-phthalic anhydride can provide the best protection for AZ31B magnesium alloy. The i corr was reduced from 11.18 μ A cm − 2 (blank) to 0.65 μ A cm − 2 and the ( R f + R ct ) was increased from 1478.1 Ω cm 2 (blank) to 3129.8 Ω cm 2 with o-phthalic anhydride as VCI. O-phthalic anhydride combined with Mg 2 + to form different complexes with different molecular weights, which developed a more compact protective film on the AZ31B surface. Overall, the o-phthalic anhydride can be utilized as an excellent VCI for AZ31B magnesium alloy in a simulated ocean–atmosphere environment.

Lignin pyrolysis involves complex radical reactions, whereas the radical chain process, especially the influence of aliphatic substituents , has been rarely studied. Herein, the typical β -O-4 lignin dimer, phenethyl phenyl ether (PPE), and three aliphatic substituted derivatives of PPE, namely α -OH substituted, β -CH 2 OH substituted, and α,β -disubstituted PPE ( α PPE, β PPE, and αβ PPE) were employed as model compounds. DFT calculations, electronic analyses, and fast pyrolysis experiments were combined to investigate three core steps of the radical chain mechanism in lignin pyrolysis, i.e., homolysis, hydrogen abstraction , and radical decomposition. The pathway involving successive C β -O homolysis → α -hydrogen abstraction → C β -O breakage of α -dehydrogenated radical is dominated for the pyrolysis of aliphatic substituted β -O-4 linked lignin, with the formation of phenolics . The hydrogen abstraction reactions at the C α site are obviously superior to those at other sites for PPE derivatives, due to the p- π conjugate stability. Notably, α -hydrogen abstraction can be significantly promoted by the π -electron-dispersing α -OH substitution. The decomposition step of dehydrogenated radicals can be facilitated by the electron-donating β -CH 2 OH substitution, where the C β -O breakage of the α -dehydrogenated radical is dominant. Totally, aliphatic substituents can improve the radical growth stage and change the competitiveness of the hydrogen abstraction and radical decomposition reactions. The fast pyrolysis experiments of PPE and α PPE gave direct proof that the generation of characteristic products from the radical chain process, i.e., benzaldehyde and phenylacetaldehyde, was enhanced by the α -OH substitution. The present work offers the potential to give a comprehensive image of the radical chain mechanism in lignin pyrolysis.

Goat milk oligosaccharides are complex carbohydrates with a variety of biological functions. Free oligosaccharides from goat milk show more similarity to human milk than cow milk. At present, changes in goat milk glycoconjugates at different parities remain poorly studied. Herein, we qualitatively and quantitatively compared the goat milk glycoprotein N/O-glycome at different parities using a stable isotope labeling followed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and online hydrophilic interaction chromatography. N-Glycans were mainly fucosylated and nonfucosylated nonsialylated, and both fucosylation and sialylation gradually increased with parity, amounting (at the third parity) to 1.25 times and 3.3 times those of the first parity, respectively. O-Glycans were mostly nonfucosylated and nonsialylated, and sialylation increased with increasing parity, and Neu5Ac-sialylated was up to 9 times higher in the third parity than in the first parity, whereas Neu5Gc-sialylated was 5.5 times higher. This study provides a reference for exploring an alternative milk source closest to human milk and for the development of humanized formula milk.
