In this study, the formation of two toxic reactive aldehydes, 4-hydroxy-2-hexenal (HHE) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), was investigated during frying of two different foodstuffs at 180 °C for 7 h in three different vegetable oils. The results showed that HHE and HNE content in the oil after frying was lower than that in the oil fried without foods. It was mainly because of the incorporation of HHE/HNE into the fried foods. In French Fries (FF), the HNE content was higher, whereas it was lower in the fried chicken breast meat (FCBM). The bidirectional model systems consisting of the model oil frying system and the model food frying system were used. The result of the model oil system showed that the content of HNE was higher in FF for the higher hydrophobic property than that in HHE, which would be preferably bounded into the hydrophobic helical structures, whereas the lower content of HNE was observed in FCBM due to its higher reactivity towards the nucleophilic group, namely, the protein in FCBM. Furthermore, the model food frying system including starch and protein extracted from the corresponding foodstuffs verified the results in the model oil system. Finally, the probable migration mechanism of HHE and HNE in different food matrices was proposed for the first time.

A novel wavelength shifter of the 1,4-bis(4-methoxylstyryl)benzene (bis-4-MOSB) was synthesized by employing the classical Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. Feasible analysis of the bis-4-MOSB as the wavelength shifter in a ternary liquid scintillator, in which p-xylene (PX) was as the solvent and 2,5-diphenyloxazole (PPO) was as the primary fluor, was carried out. The optimum prescription with 3.5 g/L PPO and 25 mg/L bis-4-MOSB was obtained with regard to the light yield. A series of characterization tests based on the optimal formulation were performed. Compared with the 1,4-bis(2-methylstyryl)benzene (bis-MSB), the maximum absorption peak at 356 nm and maximum emission peak at 421 nm in n-hexane with the red shift of 10 nm and 3 nm, respectively, were measured accordingly. The light yield characterized by using a relative measurement method achieved as high as 75.85% of the anthracene crystal. A brief density functional calculation was conducted to have an insight into the electronic structure characteristic of the bis-4-MOSB in the scintillation process.

Calix[4]resorcinarene, prepared by the acid-catalyzed condensation of resorcinol and paraldehyde, was used as the core of the molecular glass compound. The hydroxyl groups of calix[4]resorcinarene were partly protected by tert-butoxycarbonyl ( t -BOC) and then esterified with 2-diazo-1-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonyl chloride (2,1,4-DNQ-Cl). Upon irradiation to 365 nm light, the 2,1,4-DNQ groups undergo photolysis to generate a small quantity of sulfonic acid other than indene carboxylic acid. The generated sulfonic acid can further catalyze the deprotection of the t -BOC group. So, a new type of single-component chemically amplified i-line positive photoresist can be formed by the molecular glass compounds. The lithographic performance of the resist was evaluated with high resolution and photosensitivity with an i-line stepper.

Textile dyeing often employs reactive dyes. The dye wastewater contains hazardous materials and is toxic to humans and the environment. Photodegradation using a semiconductor photocatalyst is a promising alternative approach for water purification and wastewater treatment. However, the photocatalyst’s low adsorption ability is a problem in the photocatalysis process. To compensate for this shortcoming, photocatalyst content must be combined with an adsorbent. Raw corn cob and titanium dioxide (TiO2) were used in this photocatalysis. Due to a synergistic impact, raw corn cob’s ability to adsorb and titanium dioxide’s ability to photodegrade organic pollutants from water bodies is expected to boost the removal performance. The degradation of Reactive Blue 4 (RB4) as a targeted dye was carried out in this research using a suspended mixture of commercial anatase TiO2 and raw corn cob under UV light. The effect of initial pH solution, initial dye concentration and contact time, TiO2-corn cob dosages, and the influence of other pollutants were investigated as factors influencing photodegradation-adsorption of RB4. The high removal rate of RB4 was obtained at a low pH of 2 and RB4 concentration of 40 ppm. The increased dose of TiO2-corn cob improved the RB4 dye removal performance. In conclusion, combining photodegradation and adsorption systems as a hybrid treatment method resulted in a synergistic increase in the efficiency of RB4 removal.

4- n -butylresorcinol (4nBR) is a frequently utilized as whitening ingredients in skincare cosmetics. Compared with other whitening ingredients, it can effectively inhibit tyrosinase with lower toxicity and superior inhibition efficacy. Under alkaline conditions, an induced oxidative coupling reaction can occur between 4nBR and dopamine (DA) to generate strong fluorescent substance azamonardine with an intense emission band centering at 476 nm when excited at 440 nm. This phenomenon can be used to establish a fluorescence analysis method for 4nBR. The results indicated that the linear range of the method was 1.0–24.0 nmol L −1 , and the detection limit was as low as 0.25 nmol L −1 . The method showed high sensitivity, good selectivity, mild experimental conditions and low cost. The proposed method was successfully used to detect 4nBR in cosmetics, and the results were consistent with those of HPLC. The spiking recoveries were between 98.2% and 108 %.

It is of great importance to explore the selective hydrogenolysis of β-O-4 linkages, which account for 45–60% of all linkages in native lignin, to produce valued-added chemicals and fuels from biomass employing UV light as catalyst. TiO2exhibited satisfactory catalytic performances in various photochemical reactions, due to its versatile advantages involving high catalytic activity, low cost and non-toxicity. In this work, 20 wt.% Ni/TiO2and oxidant PCC (Pyridinium chlorochromate) were employed to promote the cleavage of β-O-4 alcohol to obtain high value chemicals under UV irradiation at room temperature. The Ni/TiO2photocatalyst can be magnetically recovered and efficiently reused in the following four consecutive recycling tests in the cleavage of β-O-4 ether bond in lignin. Mechanism studies suggested that the oxidation of β-O-4 alcohol to β-O-4 ketone by oxidant PCC first occurred during the reaction, and was followed by the photocatalysis of the obtained β-O-4 ketone to corresponding acetophenone and phenol derivates. Furthermore, the system was tested on a variety of lignin model substrates containing β-O-4 linkage for the generation of fragmentation products in good to excellent results.Keywords:lignin;β-O-4;photocatalyst;Ni/TiO2;oxidant PCC

Membrane distillation (MD) is promising desalination technology for hypersaline wastewater treatment. However, traditional MD membranes are subject to low vapor flux and mineral scaling. In this study, we report the fabrication of a composite membrane composed of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and metal azolate framework-4 (MAF-4) via electrospinning. The highly porous MAF-4 provides additional vapor transfer channels and better heat insulation , thereby significantly increasing the membrane flux compared to a bare electrospun PVDF membrane. The surface chemistry of the MAF-4 surface is further tailored with fluorinated functional groups through the coordination between the fluorinated molecule and the surface Zn atom. This surface modification changes the surface wettability of the MAF-4 and thus improves the membrane scaling resistance. This study demonstrates a universal approach for preparing high flux and scaling-resistant MD membranes. In addition, the tunable surface property of MAF-4 can also be utilized to design and fabricate other types of membrane surfaces by coordinating different functional molecules.

Natural polymer chitosan has many advantages, but the poor solubility limits its application. In this study, chitosan derivatives soluble in DCM, DMF, DMSO, H 2 O and other solvents were developed by introducing side chains into chitosan (CS). In addition, the fluorescent group on the side chain makes the chitosan derivative have the ability to detect 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). Firstly, a chain transfer agent containing C C (N3-NS) was synthesized with naphthalimide as the fluorescence unit. Then, using AIBN as initiator, an extensively soluble polymer with fluorescent moiety TP-NVP was synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT) method using monomer N -vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP). Finally, the C C of TP-NVP was used to react with –NH 2 on CS to prepare PVP-g-chitosan, so that more CS was “pulled” by TP-NVP into the solvent. The solubility of the synthesized CS-PVP probe can be adjusted by adjusting the amount of NVP, up to 17.6 mg/mL. At the same time, the synthesized CS-PVP had a good detection effect on 4-NP, and the detection limit (LOD) was 0.054 μM. The HOMO-LUMO energy level of the probe was calculated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). In addition, CS-PVP was successfully loaded on a low background fluorescent test paper to achieve real-time visual intelligent determination of 4-NP in real samples with the help of a color scanning APP of a smartphone.

Hydrodefluorination (HDF) is the key step in fluoroaromatic pollutant (FAP) degradation, making the search for efficient HDF catalysts and the determination of the corresponding mechanism a matter of great importance. In this study, we developed an efficient HDF catalyst (a Rh-Pd alloy) and investigated the underlying catalytic reaction mechanism , using 4-fluorophenol (4-FP) as a model FAP. Specifically, the rapid aqueous-phase HDF of 4-FP at pH 3 was achieved on a Rh-Pd alloy-modified Ni foam electrode, which was followed by ring hydrogenation (RH) of the HDF product (phenol) to afford cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol . Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) and thermodynamic analyses showed that, in addition to those supplied by the applied current, the electrons involved in the HDF of 4-FP and the RH of phenol were largely provided by the oxidative dissolution of the Ni foam support. Hydrogenation and cyclic voltammetry experiments indicated that the HDF of 4-FP probably follows an indirect mechanism (featuring adsorbed H atoms as the direct reductant) and that the strength of 4-FP adsorption onto the surface of the catalyst significantly influences its HDF activity.

Imidazole alkaloids, a common class of five-membered aromatic heterocyclic compounds, exist widely in plants, animals and marine organisms. Because of imidazole’s extensive and excellent biological and pharmacological activities, it has always been a topic of major interest for researchers and has been widely used as an active moiety in search of bioactive molecules. To find more efficient antibacterial compounds, a series of novel imidazole-fragment-decorated 2-(pyrazol-4-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were designed and synthesized based on our previous works via the active substructure splicing principle, and their bioactivities were systematically evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. The bioassays showed that some of the target compounds displayed excellent in vitro antibacterial activity toward three virulent phytopathogenic bacteria, includingXanthomonas oryzaepv.oryzae(Xoo),Xanthomonas axonopodispv.citri(Xac) andPseudomonas syringaepv.actinidiae(Psa), affording the lowest EC50values of 7.40 (7c), 5.44 (9a) and 12.85 (9a) μg/mL, respectively. Meanwhile, compound7cpossessed good in vivo protective and curative activities to manage rice bacterial leaf blight at 200 μg/mL, with control efficacies of 47.34% and 41.18%, respectively. Furthermore, compound9ashowed commendable in vivo protective and curative activities to manage kiwifruit bacterial canker at 200 μg/mL, with control efficacies of 46.05% and 32.89%, respectively, which were much better than those of the commercial bactericideTC(31.58% and 17.11%, respectively). In addition, the antibacterial mechanism suggested that these new types of title compounds could negatively impact the cell membranes of phytopathogenic bacteria cells and cause the leakage of the intracellular component, thereby leading to the killing of bacteria. All these findings confirm that novel 2-(pyrazol-4-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles containing an imidazole fragment are promising lead compounds for discovering new bactericidal agents.

3-Amino-4-amidoximinofurazan (AAOF) is an important precursor for the synthesis of high energy furazan energetic materials. The traditional batchwise synthesis approach has the shortcomings of low productivity and high possibility of thermal runaway. This article aims to develop a continuous-flow and safe synthesis approach for AAOF. To achieve this goal, the precipitation problems appearing in the oximation and cyclization reaction stages have been first tackled by diluting the hydroxylamine hydrochloride and sodium hydroxide solution with water, which also reduced the thermal risk of AAOF synthesis. The continuous-flow platform for AAOF synthesis has been established, and the continuous-flow operation parameters have been optimized. The optimal temperatures for the nitrosation–rearrangement coupling reaction, neutralization reaction, oximation and cyclization were 15 °C, 15 °C, 25 °C and 115 °C, respectively. The optimal set retention times for these four stages were 15 min, 5 min, 60 min and 10 min, respectively. The continuous-flow synthesis approach offered an optimal yield of AAOF (95%), which is comparable to the result of batch operation. The total flow rate of the whole process is 10.34 mL min−1, and the final productivity is calculated to be about 0.546 mol h−1 of AAOF. The main merits for the continuous-flow synthesis of AAOF include the following: (1) the reaction time is only one-third of that for batch operation and (2) continuous-flow operation is inherently safe due to the lower liquid holdup and stronger temperature control ability. This work is supposed to be beneficial to the continuous and safe synthesis of AAOF.

In this study, we report a cross-linker-based poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) for the sensitive detection of 4-nonylphenol (4-NP). PIL was poly(1,4-butanediyl-3,3′-bis-l-vinylimidazolium dibromide) (poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)). Poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) was prepared via one-step free-radical polymerization. The poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analyzer and scanning electron microscope. The poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) was then drop-cast onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to obtain poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE. In comparison with a bare GCE, poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE exhibited higher peak current responses for [Fe(CN)6]3−/4−, lower charge transfer resistance, and larger effective surface area. While comparing the peak current responses, we found the peak current response for 4-NP using poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE to be 3.6 times higher than a traditional cross-linker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) based poly(EGDMA) modified GCE. The peak current of poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2) sensor was linear to 4-NP concentration from 0.05 to 5 μM. The detection limit of 4-NP was obtained as 0.01 μM (S/N = 3). The new PIL based electrochemical sensor also exhibited excellent selectivity, stability, and reusability. Furthermore, the poly([V2C4(mim)2]Br2)/GCE demonstrated good 4-NP detection in environmental water samples.Keywords:poly(ionic liquid);cross-linker;electrochemical detection;4-nonylphenol
