Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are persistent pollutants that may undergo microbial-mediated debromination in anoxic environments, where diverse anaerobic microbes such as methanogenic archaea co-exist. However, current understanding of the relations between PBDE pollution and methanogenic process is far from complete. To address this knowledge gap, a series of anaerobic soil microcosms were established. BDE-47 (2, 2′, 4, 4′-tetrabromodiphenyl ether) was selected as a model pollutant, and electron donors were supplied to stimulate the activity of anaerobes . Debromination and methane production were monitored during the 12 weeks incubation, while obligate organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRBs), methanogenic, and the total bacterial communities were examined at week 7 and 12. The results demonstrated slow debromination of BDE-47 in all microcosms, with considerable growth of Dehalococcoides and Dehalogenimonas over the incubation observed in most BDE-47 spiked treatments. In addition, the accumulation of intermediate metabolites positively correlated with the abundance of Dehalogenimonas at week 7, suggesting potential role of these OHRBs in debromination. Methanosarcinaceae were identified as the primary methanogenic archaea, and their abundance were correlated with the production of debrominated metabolites at week 7. Furthermore, it was observed for the first time that BDE-47 considerably enhanced methane production and increased the abundance of mcrA genes, highlighting the potential effects of PBDE pollution on climate change. This might be related to the inhibition of reductive N- and S-transforming microbes, as revealed by the quantitative microbial element cycling (QMEC) analysis. Overall, our findings shed light on the intricate interactions between PBDE and methanogenic processes, and contribute to a better understanding of the environmental fate and ecological implication of PBDE under anaerobic settings.

Growing evidence links environmental pollutant exposure to the deterioration of male reproductive health. In this study, the interactive toxicity between polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs) and 3,3′,4,4′,5-pentachlorobiphenyl on human sperm functions were evaluated. Functional assays were performed on sperm in vitro from healthy volunteers treated separately or jointly with PS-NPs and PCB-126. Key endpoints—motility, cervical mucus-penetrating ability, capacitation, acrosome reaction, intracellular reactive oxygen species, and mitochondrial membrane potential—were significantly more impaired under co-exposure conditions than with individual treatments. Notably, combined treatment synergistically increased ROS accumulation, enhanced mitochondrial depolarization, and inhibited progesterone-stimulated capacitation and acrosome reaction of human sperm. The observed synergistic toxicity may be mediated through oxidative stress and disruption of mitochondrial function, leading to apoptotic-like changes. These results draw attention to the reproductive risks that may emerge from dual exposure to nanoplastics and stable organic environmental chemicals within the setting of idiopathic male infertility.

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are widely used as flame retardants and challenges for water treatment due to their persistence and toxicity. In this study, the reduction of 2′2′4′4′-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) was investigated in a nano-bio-integrated system. Results showed that the introducing of P. putida could markedly accelerate the demineralization of BDE-47 in nZVI/Pd- P.p system; the continuous generation of acidic metaboliates by P. putida could decrease pH, which could alleviate the surface passivation to some extent, resulting in the releasing of Fe 2+ and high generation of H 2 O 2 , the shift in reactive oxygen species from Fe(IV) to •OH. The BDE-47 was firstly debrominated to the DE by the highly reductive [Pd·2H] generated by nZVI/Pd, then oxidized to bromophenol and phenol, catechol as well as hydroquinone via the P. putida strain and the Fenton-like system. The toxicity assays confirmed the combined system could avert generation of nocuous intermediates, and could be an alternative strategy for complete remediation of recalcitrant POPs.

Nine 4,4′,4′′,4′′′-(cyclobutane-1,2,3,4-tetrayl)tetrabenzoate derivative electrochromic materials have been designed, synthesized, and characterized. Seven compounds displayed dual-colored electrochromism. The required potential and colored states were markedly influenced by substitution. When the substituent was alkyl, colored states of purple and blue were obtained at an applied voltage of −2.3 and −2.6 V, respectively; when the substituent was phenyl with an electron-donating group, colored states of purple bluish and bright blue were obtained at an applied voltage of −2.1 and −2.3 V, respectively; when the substituent was phenyl with an electron-withdrawing group, monocolored state and bad electrochromic properties were obtained. Moreover, electrochromic devices based on most of these compounds show large optical contrast, fast response time, and high coloration efficiency.

A series of cyclo-N5−-based lead-containing energetic coordination polymers [Pb(OH)]4(N5)4 (1), [Pb3(N5)3(H2O)9(NO3)]4(N5)8(H2O)5 (2), [Pb(OH)]4(N5)3(NO3)(H2O)3 (3), and [Pb(OH)]4(N5)3(ClO4)(H2O) (4) were synthesized by self-assembly and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, infrared and Raman spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. In addition, their thermal decomposition kinetics have been studied theoretically and experimentally. The results revealed that the synthesized CPs possess regular structures, very high densities (2.852–4.537 g cm−3), good oxygen balances (CO2) (−2.72–+2.61%), good thermal stabilities (80–110 °C), and acceptable sensitivities (9.5–20 J; 120–240 N). This work will provide new inspiration for the development of cyclo-N5−-based coordination polymers and energetic materials.

In this work, a new diamine was designed by connecting flexible structures such as ether bond and aliphatic carbon chain between benzene rings, and was synthesized and purified through simple reactions such as Suzuki reaction. Finally, a series of polyimide (PI) films were synthesized by copolymerization with 4.4`-diaminodiphenyl ether (ODA)\pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) in different proportions. We prepared polyimide films with new monomer copolymerization ratios of 1% (PI-1), 5% (PI-2), 10% (PI-3), and 20% (PI-4). The polyimide films showed excellent glass transition temperatures, which were attributed to their unique bent architectures. The mechanical and thermal properties of the thermosets were studied using tensile testing, static thermomechanical analysis (TMA), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). As the results, the films exhibited the optimal glass transition temperatures (317.56°C–381.91°C), and the component with the highest copolymerization ratio has a 15% decrease in glass transition temperature compared to the component without copolymerization. Moreover, PI-1-PI-4 showed good heat resistance in the N2 atmosphere. The temperatures corresponding to a 5% heat loss in the films (T5%) were 458.12 °C–548.75°C, respectively.

Abstract The host–guest binding characteristics of cyclopentanocucurbit[6]uril (CyP 6 Q[6]) and cyanine dye trans -4-[4-(dimethylamino)styryl]-1-methylpyridinium iodide ( t -DSMI) have been studied. The results show that CyP 6 Q[6] and t -DSMI form a 1:1 inclusion system, generating strong fluorescence. On this basis, the fluorescent probe t -DSMI@CyP 6 Q[6] has been constructed, and its anion recognition ability has been investigated. In a neutral environment, BF 4 − , H 2 PO 4 − , and I − elicit obvious specific responses from the probe, since they have stronger binding forces. This probe shows greater sensitivity than the previously reported probe t -DSMI@HMeQ[6]. Graphic abstract Since the complex formed by CyP 6 Q[6] and t -DSMI can produce strong fluorescence at pH > 4.6, t -DSMI@CyP 6 Q[6] was constructed to recognize the anions at pH ≅ 5. The results show that in a near neutral environment, BF 4 − , H 2 PO 4 − , and I − elicit obvious specific responses from the probe.

This study aims to achieve dual-color properties for pyridinium-salt-based electrochromic materials. A novel series of 4′-(4-alkyl ester)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridinium derivatives were designed and synthesized through the introduction of an ester group onto the benzene ring of 2,4-di(4-pyridyl)-4-benzylpyridinium derivatives. Dual-electrochromic devices based on these compounds were fabricated. Multiple shades of green and yellowish green colors were obtained by changing the type of carboxylic acids and the nitrogen substituents. The type of carboxylic acids and the nitrogen substituents significantly influenced their electrochromic properties. 4′-(4-Alkyl ester)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridinium derivatives show good electrochromic properties such as high coloration efficiency, reasonable contrast, satisfactory optical memories, and redox stability. The dual-electrochromic materials are promising candidates for applications in electrochromic display systems.

Exploring blue emission lead-free halides with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) is a significant and challenging issue for luminescent materials. Herein, a zero-dimensional (0D) organic–inorganic hybrid halide, namely, bis[4-(4-chlorophenyl)pyridinium] tetrabromidozincate, (C11H9ClN)2[ZnBr4] or [HCPP]2[ZnBr4] [CPP is 4-(4-chlorophenyl)pyridine], was synthesized through acid solution evaporation. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c. The asymmetric unit consists of a [ZnBr4]2− dianion cluster and two monoprotonated [HCPP]+ cations. The [ZnBr4]2− unit presents an almost undistorted tetrahedral geometry. The [HCPP]+ cations adopt nearly coplanar conformations with small dihedral angles of 5.05 (3)°; there are relatively strong π–π interactions between adjacent [HCPP]+ cations due to slipped parallel packing, with a distance of 3.81 (1) Å. Significantly, this halide exhibits highly efficient blue-light emission (385–500 nm) with a PLQY of 56.35%.

A sensitive and selective electrochemical sensor based on molecular imprinting polymers grafted graphene (MIPs-G) was developed for simultaneous measurement of 4, 4-methylene diphenylamine (MDA) and aniline by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). MIPs-G was synthesized via free radical polymerization reaction using MDA and 4-vinyl pyridine as template molecule and functional monomer respectively. The obtained nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, Raman spectroscopy and thermal gravimetric analysis . After removal template molecules, MIPs-G was used as electrode material for aromatic amines measurements. Due to the high binding affinity towards MDA and the π-π interaction with aniline, the MIPs-G based electrochemical sensor can be used for simultaneous detection of MDA and aniline by DPV. Under the optimized condition, the oxidation potentials for MDA and aniline were observed at 0.62 and 0.72 V, respectively. Moreover, MIPs-G modified glassy carbon electrode shows linear response towards MDA and aniline simultaneously over the range of 1.0 to 15 μM. The MIPs-G based electrochemical sensor has been applied for simultaneous measurement of MDA and aniline in plastic tableware.

Perovskite photodetectors (PPDs) offer a promising solution with low cost and high responsivity, addressing the limitations of traditional inorganic photodetectors. However, there’s still room for improvement in terms of dark current and stability of air-processed PPDs. In this study, 4',4"-Tris(carbazl-9-yl)-triphenylamine (TCTA) is utilized as nucleation agent to enhance the quality of perovskite film. The synergistic effect of TCTA and moisture promotes rapid nucleation of PbI2-PbCl2, resulting in an increased nucleation rate and the elimination of pinholes in the film. By employing additive engineering, we obtain a PbI2-PbCl2 layer with high coverage, leading to a lower density of traps in the corresponding perovskite film. Consequently, the modified PPD exhibits a remarkable reduction in dark current density by over one order of magnitude, reaching 2.4×10-10 A cm-2 at -10 mV, along with a large linear dynamic range (LDR) of 183 dB. Furthermore, the resulting PPD demonstrates remarkable stability, retaining 90% of the initial external quantum efficiency (EQE) value even after continuous operation for over 3200 hours. Due to a fast response time in nanosecond range, the PPD can convert modulated light signals into electrical signals at a speed of 588 Kbit s-1, highlighting great potential in the field of optical communication.
