As an active metabolite of venlafaxine and emerging antidepressant, O-desmethylvenlafaxine (ODVEN) was widely detected in different water bodies, which caused potential harm to human health and environmental safety. In this study, the comparative work on the ODVEN degradation by UV (254 nm) and UV-LED (275 nm) activated sodium percarbonate (SPC) systems was systematically performed. The higher removal rate of ODVEN can be achieved under UV-LED direct photolysis (14.99%) than UV direct photolysis (4.57%) due to the higher values of photolysis coefficient at the wavelength 275 nm. Significant synergistic effects were observed in the UV/SPC (80.38%) and UV-LED/SPC (53.57%) systems and the former exhibited better performance for the elimination of ODVEN. The degradation of ODVEN all followed the pseudo-first-order kinetics well in these processes, and the pseudo-first-order rate constant ( k obs ) increased with increasing SPC concentration. Radicals quenching experiments demonstrated that both ·OH and CO 3 · − were involved in the degradation of ODVEN and the second-order rate constant of ODVEN with CO 3 · − (1.58 × 10 8 (mol/L) −1 sec −1 ) was reported for the first time based on competitive kinetic method. The introduction of HA, Cl − , NO 3 − and HCO 3 − inhibited the ODVEN degradation to varying degrees in the both processes. According to quantum chemical calculation, radical addition at the ortho-position of the phenolic hydroxyl group was confirmed to be the main reaction pathways for the oxidation of ODVEN by ·OH. In addition, the oxidation of ODVEN may involve the demethylation, H-abstraction, OH-addition and C-N bond cleavage. Eventually, the UV-LED/SPC process was considered to be more cost-effective compared to the UV/SPC process, although the UV/SPC process possessed a higher removal rate of ODVEN.

Graphical Chop up the wood : Tungsten-based bimetallic catalysts exhibit high activity and selectivity in the hydrogenolysis of typical model compounds of the α-O-4 linkage in lignin and deconstruction of lignin feedstock for the production of aromatic chemicals. High yields of C−O cleavage products are obtained without destroying the aromatic rings. Tungsten-based bimetallic catalysts M–W/AC (M=Ru, Pt, and Pd; AC=activated carbon) exhibited high activity and selectivity in the hydrogenolysis of typical α-O-4 model compounds and deconstruction of lignin feedstock for the production of aromatic chemicals. Synergy effect was observed between tungsten and noble-metal species, which on the one hand modulated the hydrogenolysis activity of tungsten and improved the activity of catalyst, and on the other hand suppressed overhydrogenation that avoided the formation of cycloalkanes. The conversion of α-O-4 model compounds with different substituents showed that electronic effects play an important role in stabilizing the reaction intermediates, and the electron-donating methoxy group on the aromatic ring accelerated the hydrogenolysis efficiency. Solvent effect was another factor that determined hydrogenolysis efficiency; dipolar aprotic solvents such as n -hexane provided the high yields of target aromatics. In the conversion of realistic lignins, the bimetallic catalyst showed excellent activity not only in α-O-4 cleavage but also in the hydrogenolysis of other major linkages such as β-O-4 and β−β between aromatic units, so that a high yield of liquid oil was obtained from lignin.

Research has indicated the health beneficial effects of soyfoods. Genistein, one of the primary bioactive agents in soybeans, has a number of pharmacological and biological activities; however, its low water solubility and low intestinal permeability may lead to the depletion of genistein absorption from dietary intake and contribute to its poor oral bioavailability. Previous study revealed a water-soluble phosphate conjugate of genistein, genistein 7-O-phosphate (G7P), generated by biotransformation of Bacillus subtilis var. natto BCRC80517 with genistein. This study aimed to investigate the dissolution profile, intestinal permeability and oral bioavailability of genistein and G7P. G7P improved water solubility and also enhanced intestinal permeability in vitro and in situ , and greatly increased plasma exposure to genistein after oral administration in rats. The aqueous solubility of genistein is the absorption barrier to its oral bioavailability. G7P may be a promising and efficient alternative to genistein.

Graphical Highly substituted 2-hydroxyflavanones can be obtained through a tandem O -arylation/hydroxylation process from triazenylaryl-substituted diketones in the presence of a Lewis acid. A transition-metal-free tandem O -arylation/hydroxylation approach has been developed for the efficient synthesis of highly substituted 2-hydroxyflavanones from triazenylaryl-substituted diketones. The intermediate benzopyrylium cation may be involved in these reactions.

Rapid thermal exfoliation/reduction of graphite oxide is a fast and easy method among the oxidation–reduction approaches for graphene synthesis. In this research, we firstly demonstrated that graphene can be obtained with a surface area of 550 to 700 m2 g−1 and a yield of approximately 50% through one-step rapid thermal treatment in air from 450 to 550 °C, without vacuum or protective gas through a self-protection process. Then, we further demonstrated the effective two-step thermal annealing to significantly improve the C/O ratio from ca. 7.3 to 25.9 in air at the relatively low temperature of 600 °C. The smart self-protecting and enhanced-oxygen-removal mechanisms were discussed.

In the hydrogenation of polyfunctional compounds, achieving high selectivity for specific functional groups remains challenging. Herein we report that SiC quantum dots (QDs) can selectively adsorb C = O in cinnamaldehyde, significantly increasing the activity and selectivity of Pt/SiC for hydrogenating cinnamaldehyde to cinnamyl alcohol. A 10 wt% QDs-modified Pt/SiC catalyst showed a turnover frequency 3.5 times higher than Pt/SiC under mild conditions. Further studies reveal that the defect-rich surface of SiC QDs facilitates the adsorption of C = O bond in cinnamaldehyde and enhances the spillover of active hydrogen from Pt to SiC QDs. During the catalysis process, Pt is responsible for the generation of reactive hydrogen species while the QDs undertake the activation of C = O bond, and the hydrogen species react with cinnamaldehyde via spillover. This work demonstrates the promise of SiC QDs in heterogeneous catalysis and provides a reference for designing novel hydrogenation catalysts.

In this study, a foam fractionation technique was developed for the separation and enrichment of the trace m-phenylenediamine (MPD) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) in solution. Firstly, a self-designed foam fractionation device was assembled and built, followed by a comprehensive characterization on gas types, foam fractionation column parameters, and porous sieve plate material used in the apparatus. Subsequently, the most crucial parameters for the separation and enrichment, such as surfactant species, solution pH, electrolyte categories, and gas flow rate, were identified and optimized. The mechanisms of key processes during foam fractionation under the influence of these parameters were thoroughly discussed. Other influencing factors, such as surfactant concentration, foam collection time, and solution volume in the fractionation column, were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Under these optimal conditions, maximal enrichment ratios of 138.2 and 85.5 were achieved for MPD and OPD, respectively. Finally, foam fractionation coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was employed to detect MPD and OPD in the solution. The results demonstrated limits of detection (LOD) of 1.5 × 10 −2 μg/L and 1.5 μg/L for MPD and OPD, with relative standard deviation (RSD) values of 4.1 % and 3.9 %. When testing various actual samples, the recoveries were in the range from 92.0 % or greater in all cases. The method exhibited advantages of high sensitivity, precision, and accuracy, attributed to the high enrichment efficiency of foam fractionation. In conclusion, the foam fractionation method established in this study offers simplicity in apparatus, operational convenience, environmental friendliness (minimized use of organic solvents), and high enrichment efficiency. It proves valuable for the quantitative analysis of trace amounts of MPD and OPD in solution, presenting a novel approach for the detection of trace organic compounds in solutions.

The reaction efficiency of o -benzoquinones with amines (L-lysine, Nα-acetyl-L-lysine, glycine, L-methionine and L-arginine), thiols (L-cysteine and Nα-acetyl-L-cysteine) and protein (bovine serum albumin) were determined at pH 5.0, 7.0 and 8.0 and scan rate of 10, 50 and 100 mV/s by cyclic voltammetry. Nucleophiles containing multiple nucleophilic groups and nucleophilic group possessing low pKa value would enhance the reactivity of nucleophiles towards o -benzoquinones. The reactivity of different o -benzoquinones with L-lysine/L-cysteine followed the order: protocatechuic acid quinone ≈ catechol quinone > 4-methylbenzoquinone ≈ caffeic acid quinone > rosmarinic acid quinone > chlorogenic acid quinone. The reactivity of quinones would be decreased by the steric hindrance of substituents on quinone ring, and it would also be weakened by enhancing electron cloud density of quinone ring. Adducts generated by the interaction of 4-methylbenzoquinone with amines and thiols were tentatively identified as amine-quinone adduct and thiol-phenol adduct respectively by UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS and cyclic voltammetry.

The heteroatom atomically doping strategy was reported to construct highly
efficient sites on metal oxides for the detection of low-concentration gas.
The atomically dispersed Sn atoms were intentionally incorporated into the Fe 2 O 3
lattice during the oxidative annealing of Fe-based metal organic framework,
leading to specific Sn–O–Fe sites, porous structures, and abundant oxygen
vacancies.
The optimized Sn-Fe 2 O 3 exhibited exceptional sensing performance for NO 2
detection: ultra-high sensitivity ( Rg / Ra =2646.6 to 1 ppm NO 2 ), ultra-low limit of
detection (10 ppb), and high selectivity.

5-O-Methylvisammioside (5OMV), a flavonol compound derived from the traditional Chinese medicine plant Saposhnikovia divaricat , has been shown to inhibit vasospasm induced by High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) protein. However, its therapeutic potential and molecular mechanisms in HMGB1-induced tumor angiogenesis remain unexplored. Through comprehensive in vitro assays, we demonstrated that 5OMV significantly attenuates HMGB1-induced proliferation, migration, tube formation, and angiogenic activity in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Parallel in vivo studies using an orthotopic hepatocellular carcinoma model in C57BL/6 mice revealed that 5OMV treatment markedly reduced tumor progression and microvascular density. Mechanistic studies identified that 5OMV downregulates both total and phosphorylated forms of RAGE, MEK, and ERK in HUVECs and tumor tissues. These findings collectively establish that 5OMV exerts anti-tumor effects in hepatocellular carcinoma through targeted modulation of the HMGB1/RAGE/MEK/ERK signaling axis.

In this study, dicyandiamide (DCD) was modified with o-aminoacetophenone to synthesize a new curing agent for epoxy resin (EP), called o-acetylphenylguanidine (o-APG). The experimental results showed that the yield of o-APG could reach 85.79% under the optimal ratio. The structure of o-APG was characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The result deduced that the compatibility of o-APG with EP was significantly improved because reacted to form the group. The curing kinetics of the reaction of EP cured with o-APG was investigated via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) by using the methods of Kissinger, Ozawa, Starink, and Friedman. The DSC analysis result showed that curing temperature was reduced by about 50 °C compared with the DCD-cured EP.

An environmentally friendly desulfurization technology was constructed innovatively through coupling extraction and oxidation technique under mild conditions. A biomimetic catalytic system was built by O-bridged diiron perfluorophthalocyanine (FePcF 16 -O-FePcF 16 ) and hydrogen peroxide, and its displayed excellent catalytic activity and satisfactory regenerative performance for the oxidative desulfurization reaction. A mixed solvent of ethanol and water (volume ratio 9:1) was used as a “green” extractant with the property of low cost and low toxicity. It was found that 99% of the conversion rate of dibenzothiophene was achieved successfully after 2 h operation at 30 °C. The catalyst system was cycled 6 times without significantly reducing the removal of DBT. The catalytic activity was in the order of dibenzothiophene > 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene > benzothiophene. In addition, a possible reaction mechanism of the extraction and oxidative desulfurization was proposed and confirmed by electron paramagnetic resonance tests, gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer and electrospray ionization–mass spectrometry. The results demonstrated that the high-valent iron-oxo (Fe(IV) = O) was the main active species and this technology provides a novel idea for the design of high-efficiency, energy-saving and environmentally friendly desulfurization system.
