Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a burgeoning class of crystalline porous materials with unique properties and have been considered as a promising functional extraction medium in sample pretreatment. In this study, a new methacrylate-bonded COF (TpTh-MA) was well designed and synthesized via the aldehyde-amine condensation reaction, and the TpTh-MA was incorporated into poly (ethylene dimethacrylate) porous monolith by a facile polymerization reaction inside capillary to prepare a novel TpTh-MA monolithic column. The fabricated TpTh-MA monolithic column was characterized with scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, X-ray diffraction, and N 2 adsorption–desorption experiments. Then, the homogeneous porous structure, good permeability and high mechanical stability of TpTh-MA monolithic column was used as separation and enrichment media of capillary microextraction, which was coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography fluorescence detection for online enrichment and analysis of trace estrogens. The main experimental parameters influencing the extraction efficiency were systematically investigated. The adsorption mechanism for three estrogens was also explored and discussed based on hydrophobic effect, π-π affinity and hydrogen bonding interaction, which contributed to its strong recognition affinity to target compounds. The enrichment factors of the TpTh-MA monolithic column micro extraction method for the three estrogens were 107–114, indicating a significant preconcentration ability. Under optimal conditions, a new online analysis method was developed and exhibited good sensitivity and wide linearity range of 0.25–100.0 µg·L -1 with a coefficient of determination ( R 2 ) higher than 0.9990 and a low limit of detection with 0.05–0.07 µg·L -1 . The method was successfully applied for online analysis of three estrogens of milk and shrimp samples and the recoveries obtained from spiking experiments were in range of 81.4–113% and 77.9–111%, with the relative standard deviations of 2.6–7.9% and 2.1–8.3% ( n = 5), respectively. The results revealed the great potential for the application of the COFs-bonded monolithic column in the field of sample pretreatment.

Alkylnaphthalene as base oils are widely applied in the production of high-performance lubricating oils. Here, we report the synthesis of multi-butylnaphthalenes by alkylation of naphthalene andn-butene with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid as catalyst. Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid exhibited excellent catalytic performance with naphthalene conversion, as high as 98.5%, and the multi-butylnaphthalenes selectivity of 98.8% under optimum conditions. To investigate the effects of the side-chain numbers on naphthalene on the lubrication performance, two kinds of alkylnaphthalenes were obtained by controlling catalyst dosage, denoted as MBN-1 (90.3% mono/di-butylnaphthalenes) and MBN-2 (98.2% tri/tetra/penta/hexa-butylnaphthalenes), respectively. The primary physiochemical properties of the synthetic oils were tested, and their tribological performance was evaluated. MBN-2, with more side chains on naphthalene, displayed more effective friction reduction and anti-wear properties than MBN-1 and the commercial alkyl naphthalene base oil AN5.Keywords:naphthalene;trifluoromethanesulfonic acid;alkylation;synthetic lubricating base oil

In this study, waste corrugated paper was used as carbon precursor with KOH-NaOH mixture (mole ratio was 51:49 and the melting point is 170 °C) as activator to prepare porous carbon at different reaction temperature and different mass ratio of KOH-NaOH mixture/waste corrugate paper fiber. The micro-morphology, pore structure information and composition of porous carbon were analyzed, and the formation mechanism of pores was investigated. The effect of activator amount and pyrolysis temperature on the morphology and structure of porous carbon were studied. The adsorption capacity of porous carbon was evaluated with the methylene blue as model pollutant. The effect of adsorbent amount, adsorption time and temperature on the adsorption performance of the porous carbon were analyzed. The maximum specific surface area is 1493.30 m 2 ·g −1 and the maximum adsorption capacity of methylene blue is 518 mg·g −1 .

Gamma-aminobutyric acid green tea (GAGT) is a tea with health benefits by a special anaerobic process to increase the GABA content. However, the effect of this special processing on tea flavor during processing has been rarely reported. In this study, GC-IMS was combined with principal component analysis (PCA) to clarify the effects of different times of anaerobic treatment on the volatile profiles in finished GAGT. GC-O-MS and quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) were used to investigate the flavor characteristics of GAGT infusion. The results showed that the aroma abundance of GAGT peaked at about 8 h after anaerobic treatment, and then the GAGT flavor delayed. At this point, the differential compounds including nonanal, octanal, heptanal and linalool could be perceived by panalists. Other compounds that didn't change very much in content during processing but had high FD factors, such as β -damascenone, ( E )- β -ionone, 1-octen-3-ol and 1-octen-3-one, were also screened as odor-active compounds. Together, they constitute the characteristic flavors of “sweet”, “ketchup” and “slightly fermented” of GAGT infusion. This study will help to better understand the mechanism of GAGT aroma generation and improve the processing.

Iron-activated persulfate (PS) systems commonly suffer from the poor Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle in groundwater and soils, due to the rapid oxidation of Fe(II) by both PS-related and naturally occurring oxidative substances. Maintaining the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle is necessary to achieve the high efficiency and stability of iron-activated persulfate systems toward aromatic contaminants (e.g., PAHs) in groundwater and soils. Herein, we discover the mixtures of dithionite (DTN) and zerovalent iron (ZVI) to synergistically activate PS, and develop highly efficient, stable DTN-ZVI/PS systems for PAHs removal in groundwater and soils. DTN and intermediates sulfite/thiosulfate initiated reduction of ZVI-derived Fe(III) species in DTN-ZVI/PS systems. This reaction accelerated the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle and coated ZVI with FeS x , both favoring the generation of HO and SO 4 − . DTN-ZVI/PS exhibited Nap removal of >90% in water during 11 of 15 supplementations of Nap and/or PS, 1.4–2.4 times ZVI/PS. Similarly, 0.47–4.3 fold increments of Nap removal k obs were obtained in five chemical types of groundwater, and 1.3–2.4 fold increments of PAHs removal in soils. This study may provide a technical basis to develop new Fe-activated oxidation systems for groundwater and soil remediation .

Applications of submicron-scale particles are of rising interest in separation science due to their favorable surface-to-volume ratio and their fabrication of highly ordered structures. The uniformly dense packing beds in columns assembled from nanoparticles combined with an electroosmotic flow-driven system has great potential in a highly efficient separation system. Here, we packed capillary columns using a gravity method with synthesized nanoscale C18-SiO2particles having diameters of 300–900 nm. The separation of small molecules and proteins was evaluated in the packed columns on a pressurized capillary electrochromatography platform. The run-to-run reproducibility regarding retention time and peak area for the PAHs using a column packed with 300 nm C18-SiO2particles were less than 1.61% and 3.17%, respectively. Our study exhibited a systematic separation analysis of small molecules and proteins based on the columns packed with submicron particles combined with the pressurized capillary electrochromatography (pCEC) platform. This study may provide a promising analytical approach with extraordinary column efficiency, resolution, and speed for the separation of complex samples.Keywords:submicron scale particles;pressurized capillary electrochromatography;separation

Recently, the good physical and chemical properties, well-defined pore architectures, and designable topologies have made microporous organic networks (MONs) excellent potential candidates in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). However, their superior hydrophobic structures restrict their application in the reversed-phase mode. To solve this obstacle and to expand the application of MONs in HPLC, we realized the thiol-yne “click” postsynthesis of a novel hydrophilic MON-2COOH@SiO 2 -MER (MER denotes mercaptosuccinic acid) microsphere for reversed-phase/hydrophilic interaction mixed-mode chromatography. SiO 2 was initially decorated with MON-2COOH using 2,5-dibromoterephthalic acid and tetrakis(4-ethynylphenyl)methane as monomers, and MER was then grafted via thiol-yne click reaction to yield MON-2COOH@SiO 2 -MER microspheres (5 μm) with a pore size of ~1.3 nm. The -COOH groups in 2,5-dibromoterephthalic acid and the post-modified MER molecules considerably improved the hydrophilicity of pristine MON and enhanced the hydrophilic interactions between the stationary phase and analytes. The retention mechanisms of the MON-2COOH@SiO 2 -MER packed column were fully discussed with diverse hydrophobic and hydrophilic probes. Benefiting from the numerous -COOH recognition sites and benzene rings within MON-2COOH@SiO 2 -MER, the packed column exhibited good resolution for the separation of sulfonamides, deoxynucleosides, alkaloids, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals. A column efficiency of 27,556 plates per meter was obtained for the separation of gastrodin. The separation performance of the MON-2COOH@SiO 2 -MER packed column was also demonstrated by comparing with those of MON-2COOH@SiO 2 , commercial C18, ZIC-HILIC, and bare SiO 2 columns. This work highlights the good potential of the thiol-yne click postsynthesis strategy to construct MON-based stationary phases for mixed-mode chromatography. Graphical Abstract

Utilization of renewable biomass resources to transform them into value-added platform molecules has aroused widespread attention. Anethole (AN) is widely considered to be a significant chemical owing to its extensive application in food additives, daily necessities and pharmaceuticals. Therefore, reducing the dependence on natural fennel oil is a rational approach. We report a “green” and effective pattern of stereoselective conversion of biomass-derived 4′-methoxyphenylacetone (4-MOPP) into trans-AN. We employed a “domino” strategy of catalytic transfer hydrogenation and dehydration promoted by an interesting Lewis/Brønsted bifunctional acid catalyst, which was developed by template-free self-assembly of Hf4+ and phenylphosphonic acid (PA) followed by grinding sulfonation. Importantly, by simply adjusting composite components, PA–Hf–SO3H (1.5 : 1) exhibited a favorable amorphous inorganic–organic structure with specific surface area (135.59 m2 g−1), affluent mesopores (4.01 nm), indispensable Lewis/Brønsted acidic sites, as well as strong hydrophobicity and stability. The optimal reaction conditions were investigated by the single-factor method and response surface methodology; a high yield of 98.3% with excellent reusability was demonstrated. The corresponding kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were determined, and a feasible reaction mechanism proposed. Finally, the developed model showed a wide range of substrate versatility, thereby providing a promising catalytic strategy for the effective synthesis of AN or other high-value molecules.

The removal of oil from coal pyrolysis wastewater persists to be a challenging problem. Thus, this study proposes a new scheme that integrates the adsorption of oil using fibers and subsequent centrifugation or elution to achieve efficient oil–water separation. Based on their stable chemical property, PP and were selected as the substrates for drawing the fibers. In addition, PVDF and PTFE were explored to modify the wettability of PP and PE. The performances of as-prepared fibers were tested for removing oil from wastewater in both batch and continuous modes. Among all the fibers, the PVDF-modified PP fibers exhibited the best performance. For PP-based fibers with 5 wt% PVDF, the saturated oil-removal efficiency reached 92.24 % in case of the simulated wastewater and 81.10 % for the actual wastewater. Given that the oil content in coal pyrolysis wastewater was ~2000 ppm, the residual oil content in the outlet water would be ~380 ppm, which satisfies the requirement of the subsequent treatment process. Furthermore, the PVDF-modified PP fibers exhibited excellent reusability and stability to defy various environmental corrosions. The separation of oil and water based on the adsorption by fibers offers promising prospect to remove oil from coal pyrolysis wastewater. In addition, we derived a formula to calculate the oil contact angle under water based on Young's equation using several measurable parameters. As the calculation results were consistent with real scenarios, this derived formula can provide quantitative guidance for material modification in coal wastewater treatment .

A direct immersion solid-phase microextraction (DI-SPME) approach for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) based on hybrid fiber coating of ionic liquid and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) is presented. To fabricate the task-specific coating for the enrichment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), 1-butyl-3-vinylimidazolium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide (IL) and POSS were rapidly photoinitiated copolymerized within 5 min on a stainless steel fiber. The high efficient extraction of target analytes can be attributed to a combined result of multiple interactions including the strong C F⋯H C pseudohydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, hydrophobic force, and molecular sieve effect. A wide linear range (0.04–400 ng L −1 ) with low detection limits in the range of 0.004 and 0.5 ng L −1 were obtained for PAHs by GC–MS. The applicability of this coupling method was successfully demonstrated by the analysis of trace PAHs in real river water and soil samples, with satisfied recoveries (84.2–108.6%) and relative standard deviations (<8.1%). Compared to the other commercial fiber-based SPME methods, the IL/POSS hybrid coating-based SPME is much cheaper, thermally stable and capable of eliminating possible deleterious effects as well.

A novel magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) sorbent, magnetic multiwalled carbon nanotube-octadecylphosphonic acid modified zirconia (mMWCNT–ZrO2–C18) composite, was fabricated via a simple solvothermal reduction method to extract polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from edible oils, coupling with high performance liquid chromatography analysis. The hydrophobic ZrO2–C18 nanoparticles were introduced to enhance the extraction capability. Factors influencing the extraction efficiency, i.e. the type and volume of desorption solvent, amount of the sorbent, and adsorption and desorption time, were systematically investigated. Under the optimal conditions, calibration curves were linear (R2 > 0.9937) over the concentration range from 0.20 to 200 ng g−1. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) and limits of quantification (S/N = 10) achieved were in the range of 0.06–0.55 and 0.20–1.83 ng g−1, respectively. The intra- and inter-day relative standard deviations were less than 7.21%. A comparative study indicated that higher recoveries were obtained by using mMWCNT–ZrO2–C18 compared to when using bare mMWCNTs. The results indicated that the mMWCNT–ZrO2–C18 nanomaterial was endowed with great adsorption capability and had significant potential in the preconcentration of PAHs from edible oil samples.

This study investigated the hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) activation potential of Fe–Mn binary oxides modified bio-char (FeMn/bio-char) for the degradation of naphthalene , the dominant PAHs in drinking water . Results showed that FeMn/bio-char exhibited 80.7- and 2.18-times decomposition rates towards H 2 O 2 than that of pure bio-char and Fe–Mn binary oxides, respectively, and consequently the FeMn/bio-char/H 2 O 2 photo-Fenton system presented highest naphthalene removal efficiency. The enhanced catalytic activity could be ascribed to the synergistic effect of the combination of bio-char and Fe–Mn binary oxides, such as promoting the adsorption capacity towards contaminant, increasing concentration of persistent free radicals (PFRs) and introducing Fe–Mn binary oxides as new activator. According to the batch-scale experiments, FeMn/bio-char/H 2 O 2 photo-Fenton system could degrade naphthalene effectively at a wide pH ranges, and 82.2% of naphthalene was degraded under natural pH of 5.6 within 148 min. Free radicals quenching studies and electron spin resonance (ESR) analyses verified that the dominant free radical within FeMn/bio-char/H 2 O 2 photo-Fenton system was hydroxyl radical (•OH). According to the preliminary analysis, the generation of •OH were ascribed to the activation of H 2 O 2 by Fe (II), Mn (II) and PFRs on the catalyst surface. The mainly degradation intermediates of naphthalene were identified by GC-MS analysis. Consequently, the possible degradation pathways were proposed. Moreover, naphthalene degradation experiments were also conducted in river, tap water , industrial wastewater as well as medical wastewater, and the results indicated that the FeMn/bio-char/H 2 O 2 photo-Fenton system was effective in the treatment of naphthalene in natural waters. This study brings a valuable insight for the potential environmental applications of modified bio-char.
