Chitosan-modified magnetic Schiff base network composite nanospheres (Fe 3 O 4 @SNW@Chitosan) were prepared for the enrichment and detection of hippuric acid (HA) and 4-methyl hippuric acid (4-MHA) via magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) connected with HPLC. The SNW was one of the covalent organic framework, which constructed through covalent bonds, shown comprising solvent stability, low density and accessible pores. The obtained Fe 3 O 4 @SNW@Chitosan has many merits as a magnetic sorbent, including a hydrophilic surface, uniform pore size, unique ordered channel structure, and superparamagnetism. The favourable linearity of this MSPE-HPLC method was in the range of 1-1000 μg L −1 , and LODs of HA and 4-MHA were 0.3 μg L −1 and 0.2 μg L −1 , respectively. The recoveries in urine samples were range from 95.3 to 109.0 % with the RSD less than 9.6 %. When employed for the enrichment of HA and 4-MHA, Fe 3 O 4 @SNW@Chitosan exhibited great potential as a candidate for preconcentration.

Based on green chemistry, 3D hierarchical ZnO microflowers (MFs) constructed from layered 2D nanosheets have been designed as carriers to uniformly load PdO/Pd nanoparticles by the calcination of the precursor (ZnO/Pd(II) microflowers) in air. The ZnO/Pd(II) microflowers are prepared by dipping the 3D ZnO MFs in an ethanolic solution of PdCl2 without involving additional agents. The as-prepared 3D hierarchical ZnO microflowers are a stable support to enhance the dispersibility of PdO/Pd nanoparticles to achieve better catalytic performance for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP). In addition, the synergistic effect between the PdO and Pd nanoparticles is another major driver that promotes the catalytic process. Over 98% of 4-NP is reduced within 7 min. Furthermore, structural analysis of the ZnO/PdO/Pd microflowers can provide useful information for understanding structure-performance relationships.

Water pollution caused by organic pollutants has aroused great concern to earth sustainability in the last several decades. Herein, a facile one-pot solvothermal approach was developed to construct bimetallic platinum-rhodium alloyed nano-multipods (PtRh ANMPs) in oleylamine (OAm) by adopting creatinine and cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) as the co-structure-directing agents. The as-fabricated nanocatalyst exhibited extraordinary catalytic behaviors towards 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and rhodamine B (RhB) reduction by sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ). Impressively, the resultant catalyst showed highly facilitated rate constant ( k : 0.209/0.354 min −1 ) and turnover frequency (TOF: 1.0 × 10 −3 /0.44 × 10 −3 mol g −1 min −1 ) towards 4-NP and RhB reduction in comparison with commercial Pt black under the same conditions. This research offers some valuable insights for facile preparation of advanced nanostructures as efficient and recyclable catalyst in environmental remediation field.

Large open-circuit voltage deficit is still the main factor restricting the performance of kesterite Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 thin film solar cells. The high concentration of Cu Zn defects and [2Cu Zn + Sn Zn ] defect clusters are believed to be the significant origins of severe band tailing of the kesterite absorber. A promising way to improve the open-circuit voltage and power conversion efficiency of the device is substituting Ag + with a larger ionic radius for Cu + to suppress the defects and construct a front-graded bandgap. However, the Ag doping in kesterite can significantly lower the melting temperature, which results in difficulties in forming an Ag grading distribution across the absorber due to the strong thermal diffusion . Herein, we innovatively introduce a ZnO insert layer in the precursor film, which is expected to slow down the Ag-Cu interdiffusion during the selenization, thereby forming a desired front-graded bandgap. The Ag grading distribution in absorbers is regulated by the thickness of ZnO insert layer. The effects of ZnO insert layer on the phase compositions, morphologies, optical properties , and photovoltaic performance of Ag-doped kesterite absorbers are investigated.

Although trace silver (Ag) substitution for Cu in Cu 2 ZnSn(S, Se) 4 (CZTSSe) offers benefits in improving open-circuit voltage (V OC ) of CZTSSe solar cells, its further development is still hindered by the fairly low short-circuit current density (J SC ) owing to the increase of bandgap (E g ) of the absorber layer . Herein, a strategy is demonstrated to mitigate the poor J SC arising from the Ag substitution by tuning the Cu 2+ /(Cu + +Cu 2+ ) percentage in the (Cu, Ag) 2 ZnSnS 4 (CAZTS) precursor solution . Depth characterization indicates that the appropriate Cu 2+ /(Cu + +Cu 2+ ) percentage in the CAZTS precursor solution increases the photogenerated charges separation and carrier transport processes for Ag-substituted CZTSSe (CAZTSSe) solar cells. Benefiting from this strategy, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 9.57% is achieved when the Cu 2+ /(Cu + +Cu 2+ ) is 50 at.%. The main factor for the improvement of PCE is due to the increase in photogenerated current density (J L ) and decrease in shunt resistance (R sh ). It is demonstrated that the increase in J L results from a widening in the depletion layer width (W d ) of the p-n junction and an increase in carrier lifetime, induced by optimization of the Cu 2+ /(Cu + +Cu 2+ ) percentage. While the decrease in R sh comes from the change of reaction pathways due to the change in Cu 2+ /(Cu + +Cu 2+ ) percentage.

A facile and cost-effective preparation of silver nanoparticles decorated magnetic composite for the effective catalytic degradation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and Methylene blue (MB) and Rhodamine B (RhB) was investigated. Fe 3 O 4 @Polystyrene@Ag (Fe 3 O 4 @PS@Ag) catalyst was prepared via a two-step procedure. Firstly, carboxyl groups modified magnetic microspheres (Fe 3 O 4 @PS-COOH) has been successfully synthesized by microemulsion polymerization. Then Ag ions were adsorbed and in-situ reduced on the surface of Fe 3 O 4 @PS microspheres . To estimate the catalytic activity of Fe 3 O 4 @PS@Ag catalyst, the reduction experiments of MB, RhB and 4-NP were performed in the presence of NaBH 4 . The results indicated that Fe 3 O 4 @PS@Ag catalyst has a good catalytic performance and these dyes can be reduced in a very short time, which the apparent rate coefficients are 0.0089 s −1 , 0.0187 s −1 and 0.0086 s −1 for MB, RhB and 4-NP respectively. In addition, it could be easily collected from aqueous solution by a magnet so that the catalyst could be recovered and reused after the catalytic process. The catalytic activity was still high after seven cycles. This catalytic reaction is in agreement with the pseudo-first-order kinetic equation . Furthermore, the as-prepared Fe 3 O 4 @PS@Ag catalyst outperforms other catalysts in the degradation of these organic dyes.

Noble-metal nanoparticles (NPs), due to their high surface energy, suffer from serious problems, such as ease of agglomeration at high temperatures, which unfortunately causes a significant decline in their original catalytic activity during the reaction and recycling processes. To solve these problems, in this work, a multiple-step synthetic method is proposed to construct an advanced core–shell structure by anchoring ultrasmall Au nanoparticles on the inner surface of mesoporous Co3O4 (m-Co3O4). The m-Co3O4, which has a high surface area, is fabricated by a hard-templating method, and the ultrasmall Au NPs (1.9 nm) are confined to the inner surface of the m-Co3O4. The target sample of Au–m-Co3O4 is found to achieve the highest catalytic efficiency in the probe reaction of the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol, and more importantly, thermal stability tests demonstrate that the Au–m-Co3O4 catalyst is more stable at higher temperatures. Furthermore, DFT calculations have verified that both activated hydrogen adsorption and 4-aminophenol desorption are significantly promoted on the surface of the Au–m-Co3O4 catalyst due to a strong synergetic effect between Au and the m-Co3O4. The construction of this advanced architecture for Au-based catalysts could provide a facile method for stabilizing ultrasmall noble-metal NPs and reasonably designing noble-metal catalysts with desirable activity and stability.

The preparation of novel anthranilic diamide derivatives is extremely important for agricultural pest control. In this study, pyridylpyrazole-4-carboxamides containing a 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring were designed and synthesized via the dehydration of aromatic hydrazine derivatives and formanilides in the presence of an alkali. The insecticidal activities of these new compounds against the diamondback moth ( Plutella xylostella ) were evaluated. N-(4-chloro-2-methyl-6-(5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl)-5-methyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide ( 8h6 ) showed 67%, 50%, 34%, 20%, and 17% activity at concentrations of 100, 50, 10, 5, and 1 μg ml −1 , respectively. Density functional theory calculations showed that the introduction of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring significantly changed the electron distributions in both the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals, resulting in these compounds having much larger energy gaps than the well-known insecticide chlorantraniliprole, which may account for their lower activity. The results of this study demonstrate that anthranilic diamides substituted with a 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring are effective insecticides that can be used for pest management.

Five types of Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 (CZTSSe) films were fabricated by selenization of Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) precursor films preparing through Cu-Zn-Sn-S precursor solutions with nominal Cu + /(Cu + +Cu 2+ ) ratio of 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 and 1. Five types of CZTSSe solar cells were prepared by using the five types of CZTSSe films as absorbers, respectively. The crystal quality and phase composition of the CZTS and CZTSSe films were characterized by XRD, Raman and SEM, and the photovoltaic performance for the CZTSSe solar cells were measured by J-V and EQE. It is found that the CZTS film consists of kesterite CZTS when the ratio is 0 and of kesterite CZTS together with a small amount of SnS when the ratio is 0.2 to 1. All of the CZTSSe films are comprised of kesterite CZTSSe and a small amount of Zn(S,Se). The crystal quality and lattice constants of the kesterite CZTSSe increase with increasing the ratio, while the amount of Zn(S,Se) decreases with increasing the ratio and almost to zero as the ratio is 1. The power conversion efficiency ( PCE ) of the CZTSSe solar cells increases from 5.47% to 8.43% as the ratio increases from 0 to 1, which is due to improvement in short-circuit current density ( J sc ) and filling factor ( FF ) and decrease in open circuit voltage deficit ( V oc , def ). The influence mechanism of the ratio on the PCE is suggested by analyzing effect of the ratio on electrical parameters of the CZTSSe solar cells.

Organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are ideal candidates for the new generation of photovoltaics (PV) due to their excellent physical and chemical properties. However, the active layer of perovskite may have many defects such as vacancies, interstitials, and substitutions during the solution method preparation process. The defects in films can become fast channels for moisture-oxygen penetration, which promotes the interaction of moisture and oxygen with the defects and accelerates the degradation of PV in air, significantly limiting the efficiency and stability of PSCs. Herein, the curing agent 4-(2-carboxyvinyl) benzoic acid is added to the perovskite precursor solution to enhance the device stability by forming a moisture-oxygen-blocking barrier at the grain boundaries, at the same time, the Lewis base property of the molecule plays a key role to realize the preferred crystal orientation of perovskite films, passivate the defects and enhance the PV performance, which can significantly improve the devices efficiency. The final optimized PSCs achieve an outstanding power conversion efficiency of 20.28% and show excellent stability, with the unencapsulated device maintaining 78% of its initial efficiency after 1000 h of under ambient environment.

Background Vanillin is a widely utilized flavor compound of significant value in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, which can be obtained through natural extraction, chemical synthesis, or biotechnological processes. However, the yield from vanilla pods is insufficient to meet market demand, and chemically synthesized vanillin not only encounters limitations in its application within the food and pharmaceutical industries but also needs to address environmental concerns and unsustainable raw material sources. Hence, it is imperative to explore alternative approaches to develop an efficient and cost-effective green vanillin. To address the challenges encountered in vanillin biosynthesis, such as substrate uptake limitations and product-induced inhibition of cell growth,we leveraged the advantages of surface display technology and artificial multi-enzyme scaffolds to construct a hybrid surface-display biocatalytic system by assembling Eugenol oxidase (EUGO) and dioxygenase (NOV1), which can convert lignin biowaste 4- n -propylguaiacol (4-PG) into vanillin on the surface of Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Results To assemble bioactive macromolecules of EUGO and NOV1 on the surface of E. coli BL21(DE3), we utilized Lpp-OmpA-SpyCatcher (LOAS) as an anchoring motif and displayed EUGO-linker-NOV1-SpyTag (ELNS) by covalent interaction between SpyTag andSpyCatcher to allow their spatial proximity. After optimization of the reaction system, our self-assembly display system exhibited highly efficiency in converting 4-PG into vanillin and reached a final concentration of vanillin at 12.58 g/L, 2.5 times higher than that achieved by thewhole-cell biocatalytic system. The LOAS-ELNS display system was applied to the sustainable biosynthesis of vanillin from lignin-derived 4-n-propylguaiacol at least 10 times. Conclusions This work provided a generalized approach to co-expressing proteins and offered an efficient, eco-friendly, and renewable method for the biosynthesis of vanillin from 4-PG.

As we strive towards a sustainable future in the field of catalysis, it is imperative to draw inspiration from Mother Nature. In this study, we present a straightforward and environmentally friendly approach for the in situ synthesis of nickel metal nanoparticles encapsulated within nitrogen-doped carbon (NNC), derived from daikon biomass. Among the various examined NNC catalysts, NNC-2 characterized by its substantial surface area and high doping content, emerges as the most promising candidate for catalyzing the reduction of 4-nitrophenol. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations unveil that NNC-2 facilitates a robust Ni-NC interfacial interaction, which stabilizes Ni nanoparticles and supports the exceptional durability and recyclability. Theoretical calculations further elucidate the structure–activity relationship of the catalyst and the mechanistic aspects of the surface reduction of 4-nitrophenol. This insight enhances our understanding of the catalytic processes over carbon-based catalysts, providing a foundation for optimizing catalytic performance and guiding future developments in the field.
