In general, the final product of atrazine (ATR) degradation by reactive oxygen species is cyanuric acid bearing a stable s -triazine ring, which is not further oxidized under mild conditions. In this study, we demonstrate that the presence of Ni(II) can increase the aerobic ATR degradation rate of core–shell Fe@Fe 2 O 3 nanowires (CSFN) by 6 times and also achieve the cleavage of recalcitrant s -triazine ring. The cleavage of s -triazine ring in this novel system was confirmed by the measurements of formic acid and nitrite acid. On the basis of experimental results, a feasible mechanism was proposed to account for the promoted aerobic ATR degradation and the facile s -triazine ring cleavage as follows. First, Ni(II) adsorbed on the surface of CSFN was reduced to nickel metal, which favored the generation of active hydrogen (•H). The in-situ generated •H then reduced ATR to 4-ethylamino-6-isopropylamino-1,3,5-triazine intermediate of easy ring opening property, rather than the recalcitrant cyanuric acid. Finally, this ATR degradation pathway change promoted the aerobic ATR degradation and benefited the s -triazine ring cleavage. This study clarifies the importance of degradation pathway on the ring-opening of organic pollutants, and also provides a mild method to remove s -triazine herbicides with molecular oxygen and zero-valent iron.

Graphical A magneto-fluorescent bifunctional Fe(II) complex is synthesized through decoration of the pyrene fluorophore to Fe(II)-pybox moiety. Its magnetic and fluorescent properties are characterized via X-ray structural analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurement, 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, and fluorescent spectroscopy. As expected, the coexistence of spin-crossover and fluorescence is achieved. The construction of magneto-fluorescent bifunctional complexes is a feasible approach toward multifunctional molecular materials. Herein we report the synthesis and properties studies of a mononuclear Fe(II) complex [Fe L 2 ](ClO 4 ) ( 1 ), where L is a pyridine-2,6-bis(oxazoline) (pybox) ligand decorated by the pyrene fluorophore. Magnetic susceptibility measurement of desolvated complex 1-d shows an incomplete and gradual spin-crossover in the temperature range 50–300 K, which is further confirmed via 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy study. Light-induced excited spin state trapping (LIESST) is also observed below 70 K when the powder sample is irradiated by a 532 nm laser. The change in absorption during the spin-crossover (SCO) process is investigated via the temperature-dependent UV-vis spectroscopy. As expected, through introducing the chromophore, 1 displays fluorescence in both solution and solid state, achieving the coexistence of spin-crossover and fluorescence in one compound.

A series of Zn 1 − x Fe x O ( x = 0 , 0.015, 0.045, 0.075) nanoparticles were synthesized using the solution co-precipitation method, and their structural and property characteristics were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that all Zn 1 − x Fe x O samples exhibited a hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure with the P63mc space group. The introduction of Fe doping led to a slight lattice distortion in the samples. The morphology of the nanoparticles, including polydispersion and agglomeration, as well as the presence of the second phase ZnFe 2 O 4 , was examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy demonstrated that the band gap of Zn 1 − x Fe x O lies between 3.152 and 3.163 eV. With the increase in Fe ion doping, the band gap shows a slight decreasing trend. Mössbauer spectroscopy revealed that iron ions in the nanoparticles existed in a trivalent state and exhibited two different configurations: One involved iron replacing zinc without creating a vacancy, while the other involved iron substituting zinc with a vacancy. The ferromagnetic nature of the Fe-doped samples can be attributed to the exchange interaction between two Fe 3 + ions mediated by the F-center mechanism.

Considerable amounts of NOx are generated from the thermal utilization of solid wastes. To control NOx emission, we investigated the influence of mixed Fe/Ca additives on the generation of NOx precursors (HCN and NH3) during pyrolysis at 873, 1073, and 1273 K. Protein, proline, and phenylalanine were selected as model compounds to represent the primary nitrogen forms in typical solid wastes, such as biomass and sludge. According to the results, the iron effect is a remarkable property that enables the obvious reduction of NH3. This was most likely because NH3 was consumed by iron compounds to generate FeNx. Iron compounds facilitated thermal cracking of heterocyclic N with the release of HCN. Ca(OH)2 promoted the conversion of HCN to NH3 and fixed HCN to form CaCxNy simultaneously. These intermediates (FeNx and CaCxNy) play important roles in the reduction of NOx precursors. A lower emission of NOx precursors was observed with mixed Fe/Ca additives than with either Fe or Ca individually. This is because the generation of Ca2Fe2O5 enhanced the tranformation of intermediates to N2. The transformation of intermediates to N2 was enhanced at elevated temperatures, which allows for the lowest emission of precursors (NH3 and HCN) at 1273 K, with a higher ratio of Ca2Fe2O5 in char.

In this study, Fe/N/Cs oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts with high specific surface area, catalytic activity were synthesized using legume biomass with different protein content. The catalytic activity of the Fe/N/C catalysts was confirmed to be related to the protein content of the biomass precursor by characterization and electrochemical tests. The catalysts (named as Fe/N/C-T) from lactone tofu have the highest N/C ratio related to ORR, and the air-cathode loaded with Fe/N/C-T catalysts exhibited the best ORR performance in linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) tests, which was comparable to that of commercial Pt/C catalysts. MFCs with AC(Fe/N/C-T) air-cathode produced a maximum power density of 0.486 mW cm −2 , higher than Pt/C (0.437 mW cm −2 ) with the same loading. In addition, the Fe/N/C-T catalyst demonstrated high stability and resistance to toxicity in long-term operation, which can be an alternative to commercial Pt/C.

Disruptions in metal balance can trigger a synergistic interplay of cuproptosis and ferroptosis, offering promising solutions to enduring challenges in oncology. Here, we have engineered a Cellular Trojan Horse, named MetaCell, which uses live neutrophils to stably internalize thermosensitive liposomal bimetallic Fe-Cu MOFs (Lip@Fe-Cu-MOFs). MetaCell can instigate cuproptosis and ferroptosis, thereby enhancing treatment efficacy. Mirroring the characteristics of neutrophils, MetaCell can evade the immune system and not only infiltrate tumors but also respond to inflammation by releasing therapeutic components, thereby surmounting traditional treatment barriers. Notably, Lip@Fe-Cu-MOFs demonstrate notable photothermal effects, inciting a targeted release of Fe-Cu-MOFs within cancer cells and amplifying the synergistic action of cuproptosis and ferroptosis. MetaCell has demonstrated promising treatment outcomes in tumor-bearing mice, effectively eliminating solid tumors and forestalling recurrence, leading to extended survival. This research provides great insights into the complex interplay between copper and iron homeostasis in malignancies, potentially paving the way for innovative approaches in cancer treatment.

Novel CoFe 2 O 4 /MIL-100(Fe) (CFO/MIL-100(Fe)) core/shell nanofibers were prepared by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) assembly of MIL-100(Fe) on electrospun CoFe 2 O 4 nanofibers. The MIL-100(Fe) shells were constructed on the dispersed CoFe 2 O 4 fiber surface with high uniformity, homogeneous thickness and high stability. Due to the inherent porosity of MIL-100(Fe), a higher specific surface area of 225.77 m 2 /g is achieved for the CFO/MIL-100(Fe)-10 sample. The formed CFO/MIL-100(Fe) catalysts exhibit high catalytic activity towards degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation. The photocatalytic activity remains above 77 % within 60 min illumination after four cycles. Due to the simple synthetic method, highly uniform structure, strong magnetic recoverable, as well as good photocatalytic performance, the obtained CFO/MIL-100(Fe) core/shell nanofibers could be promising photocatalysts for practical application.

Red-emitting carbon dots (C-dots) were synthesized from p-phenylenediamine (p-PD) aqueous solution with nitric acid (HNO3) assistance by hydrothermal reaction at 200 °C for 2 h. p-PD aqueous solution can be transferred to C-dots (or poly(p-PD)) with (or without) the addition of acid. Different acid systems, such as HNO3, H3PO4 and HF, can directly synthesize red-emitting C-dots, and the fluorescence can be enhanced by increasing the strength of acids. N-CDs, 3.46 nm-average-sized C-dots, prepared in dilute HNO3, have a quantum yield of 15.8% with unique, excitation-wavelength independent emission in the red region (600 and 680 nm) and a broad visible excitation band. Carboxyl, ester and hydroxyl groups on the C-dots surface directly lead to red emission. N-CDs have a certain selective specificity for Fe3+ detection and the linear range is 10–300 nmol L−1 with a limit of determination of 1.9 nmol L−1.

In this work, zero-valent Fe-Cu bimetallic nanoparticles were synthesized using a facile method, and applied to activate sulfite for the degradation of sulfamethazine (SMT) from the aqueous solution. The key factors influencing SMT degradation were investigated, namely the theoretical loading of Cu, Fe-Cu catalyst dosage, sulfite concentration and initial solution pH. The experimental results showed that the Fe-Cu/sulfite system exhibited a much better performance in SMT degradation than the bare Fe 0 /sulfite system. The mechanism and possible degradation pathway of SMT in Fe-Cu/sulfite system were revealed. The reactive radicals that played a dominant role in the SMT degradation process were •OH and SO 4 •- , while the loading of Cu induced the synergistic effect between Fe and Cu. The redox cycle between Cu(I)/Cu(II) remarkably contributed to the conversion of Fe(III) to Fe(II), greatly enhancing the catalytic performance of Fe-Cu bimetal. In real groundwater applications, the Fe-Cu/sulfite system also exhibited satisfactory SMT degradation. The 30-day aging tests of Fe-Cu particles demonstrated that the aging of catalyst was not obviously affecting the removal of SMT. Furthermore, the reusability of catalyst was evidenced by the recycling experiments. This study provides a promising application of bimetal activated sulfite for enhanced contaminant degradation in groundwater.

It remains a major challenge to develop a facile method to prepare non-noble metal electrocatalysts with high activity and durability to drive the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Herein, a highly efficient bimetallic Zn/Fe@N-doped hierarchical porous carbon (Zn/Fe–N–C) catalyst derived from ZIF-8 and hemin (host–guest) was firstly reported by one-step thermal treatment. Fe2+ spatially separated by using the hemin guest in the ZIF-8 framework and hydrocarbon-branched chains form rich Fe–Nx active sites, and the evaporation of Zn2+ generates a highly porous structure in the Zn/Fe–N–C catalysts. Benefitting from this unique structure and composition, the resulting Zn/Fe2–N–C catalyst exhibits excellent ORR activities in both 0.1 M KOH (onset potential, Eonset = 1.08 V, and half-wave potential, E1/2 = 0.86 V vs. RHE) and 0.5 M H2SO4 media (Eonset = 1.04 V and E1/2 = 0.81 V), which are even comparable to those of the commercial Pt/C catalyst, and ranks among the top reported electrocatalysts. In addition, it also has outstanding long-term durability and good methanol resistance, much better than those of Pt/C in both acidic and alkaline media, which makes it one of the best non-noble alternatives of Pt-based catalysts for ORR electrocatalysis. This work highlights the potential to rationally design and fabricate high-performance ORR catalysts for fuel cell applications.

Clay-based materials have attracted attention owing to their dual effects of adsorption and advanced oxidation degradation in removing organic pollutants. In this study, the introduction of humic acid (HA) in the Fe-bearing montmorillonite (Fe-Mt) nano platform enhanced its tetracycline (TC) adsorption and degradation were investigated. The result showed that the adsorption and degradation efficiency of humic acid/poly-hydroxyl-iron/montmorillonite (HA-Fe-Mt) was greater than those of Fe-Mt. The adsorption performance and characterization confirmed that HA-Fe-Mt had more functional groups, stronger hydrophobic character, and higher specific surface area. The introduction of HA onto the Fe-Mt platform enhanced its specific surface area, electrostatic interaction, and hydrophobic character, therefore providing more active sites to interact with the carbonyl and amide groups of TC. Moreover, the catalytic performance and characterization results revealed that HA-Fe-Mt had greater persulfate (PS) activation, the coupled HA would speed up the transmission of electrons between Fe (III) and PS in the Fe (III) / Fe (II) cycle when PS was captured by the HA-Fe-Mt system, and the in situ generated Fe accelerates the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to further degrade TC. Consequently, HA can not only promote the adsorption of TC but also promote the degradation of TC in the Fe-Mt nano platform. HA-Fe-Mt provided a feasible and promising platform with PS activation for TC adsorption and degradation.

Lignin primarily composed of methoxylated phenylpropanoid subunits is an abundant biomass that can be used to produce aromatics. Herein, a series of non-precious bimetallic Ni–Fe/AC catalysts were prepared for efficiently depolymerizing lignin. When organosolv birch lignin was used to determine the efficiency of the catalysts in methanol solvent, the Ni1–Fe1/AC (the ratio of Ni and Fe was 1 : 1) achieved the highest total yield of monomers (23.2 wt%, mainly propylguaiacol and propylsyringol) at 225 °C under 2 MPa H2 for 6 h. From GPC analysis, it is also proved that lignin was efficiently depolymerized. The Ni–Fe alloy structure was formed according to XRD, HRTEM, H2-TPR and XPS characterization. Based on the model compounds’ tests, the Ni1–Fe1/AC catalyst showed high efficiency in ether bond cleavage without hydrogenation of aromatic rings which could be attributed to the synergistic effect of Ni and Fe on the alloy structure. The total yield of monomers by using the Ni1–Fe1/AC catalyst reached 39.5 wt% (88% selectivity to PG and PS) when birch wood sawdust was used as the substrate.
