The N-Br bond in monobromoamine (NH 2 Br) can be cleaved by UV irradiation to generate Br • and subsequently HO • , resulting in an advanced oxidation condition (i.e., UV/NH 2 Br). This study investigated the degradation of six contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in the UV/NH 2 Br process, including the phenolic hydrocarbons phenol and bisphenol A (BPA), the amines aniline and sulfadiazine (SDZ), and the persistent organic pollutants ibuprofen (IBP) and carbamazepine (CBZ). The results showed that UV/NH 2 Br process significantly improved the degradation of CECs following pseudo-first order kinetics, and the degradation of CECs was enhanced with the increase of NH 2 Br dosage. UV/NH 2 Br was more efficient in degrading CECs containing phenolic hydroxyl groups (100 %), followed by those containing amine groups (> 95 %). The degradation efficiency was influenced by the pH value and was highest at pH 7. It was found that low concentrations of Cl − (< 0.5 mM ) and HCO 3 − (< 0.5 mM) promoted the degradation of SDZ and IBP, but further increases in Cl − and HCO 3 − (0.5 ∼ 5.0 mM) resulted in inhibition. SDZ and IBP degradation was inhibited by photo absorption competition and free radical depletion in natural organic matter and actual water. Probe experiments showed that reactive bromine species (RBS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and hydroxyl radical (HO • ) played a dominant role in CEC degradation. During the degradation of IBP by UV/NH 2 Br, hydroxylation, bromination , and quinylation were proposed as the primary reaction mechanisms. As compared to HOCl disinfection, NH 2 Cl disinfection after the UV/NH 2 Br process produced lower concentrations of disinfection by-products (DBPs).

The objective of this study was to prepare Herceptin-functionalized SK-BR-3 cell membrane-wrapped paclitaxel nanocrystals (HCNCs) as a targeted delivery module for HER2-positive breast cancer. According to transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images, HCNCs presented a membrane-coated cubic shape with a particle size of approximately 220 nm. In vitro release test suggested that HCNCs had a certain sustained release effect of paclitaxel (PTX). Cell uptake experiments, in vivo imaging, and tissue distribution experiments demonstrated that HCNCs had excellent targeting ability to homologous tumor cells (SK-BR-3). The results of MTT, flow cytometry, Western blot, cell immunofluorescence staining, and in vivo antitumor experiments proved that HCNCs had a more significant ability to promote HER2-positive breast cancer cell apoptosis and inhibit its proliferation. These results clearly concluded that HCNCs were a promising nano-targeted preparation in anti-HER2-positive breast cancer.

BACKGROUND 2-nitro-4-methylsulfonylbenzoic acid (NMSBA) is commercially produced from the oxidation of 2-nitro-4-methylsulfonyltoluene (NMST) with nitric acid as oxidant and V 2 O 5 as catalyst in a strong acid solution; this process suffers from the following shortcomings: the discharge of large amounts of wastewater and waste gas, as along with the generation of polynitro compounds. It is necessary to develop a technology to avoid the pollution caused by oxidizing NMST with nitric acid. NMSBA can be synthesized by oxidizing NMST with air under the catalysis of the porous carbon made from coconut shell with ZnCl 2 as an activator together with Co/Mn/Br. RESULTS The optimum conditions for the preparation of the porous carbon are as follows: impregnation temperature 60 °C, ZnCl 2 concentration 0.50 mol L −1 , impregnation duration 6 h, carbonization temperature 600 °C, and carbonization time 4 h. The surface characterization suggests that the carbon made in this study holds smaller surface area, acidic groups, and basic groups than the commercial carbon but owns more carboxyl. CONCLUSION The Co/Mn/Br/AC (AC,the porous carbon made in this study) catalytic system is superior to the Co/Mn/Br/H 3 PMo 12 O 40 @CAC(CAC,commercial activated carbon) catalytic system in the production of NMSBA from the oxidation of NMST. The NMSBA selectivity gained by the former is 93.40%, while that gained by the latter is 87.14%. The former can cut down the consumption of NMST and the expenditure of catalysts. The catalytic ability of the AC catalyst relies on its surface chemical characteristics and physical properties. More carboxyl on AC is the reason for the upgrade of NMSBA selectivity. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry (SCI).

Photocatalytic nitrate (NO 3 - ) reduction is considered a promising green and non-polluting technology to solve the nitrate pollution of groundwater and surface water. Herein, a novel Br-substituted Bi 2 WO 6−x ultrathin nanosheets were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method in a strong acid environment containing sixteen alkyl three methyl bromide (CTAB). The catalytic system solves the problems of low carrier separation efficiency, poor performance under alkaline conditions, and a hard-to-activate N = O bond, achieving efficient NO 3 - removal under alkaline conditions along with high N 2 selectivity . It was confirmed that Br-substituted Bi 2 WO 6−x produced the [W (VI) O 6−x ] units with a strong electron-withdrawing property by changing the polarity of the O-W-O bond. As a result, the effective space charge separation caused by the change of the W valence state and the spontaneous fracture behavior of the N = O bond improved the carriers utilization efficiency and distinctly reduced the reaction energy consumption, synergistically achieving excellent performance.

In this work, we report a family of co-halogenated two-dimensional hybrid perovskites (2DHPs) based on phenethylammonium lead halogen ((PEA) 2 Pb(Cl/Br) 4 ) in which the organic cation-site (PEA) is substituted with halogen at the para-site, namely the formation of 4-halophenethylamine (X-p-PEA) (X = Cl, Br; p: para-site). The organic cations are regulated by introducing halogen ions at the para-site of the benzene ring to promote the structural distortion of the lead halide octahedral inorganic layer. Furthermore, (X-p-PEA) causes a shift in the energy band distribution of 2DHPs. In this case, the photoluminescence competition of free excitons (FEs) and self-trapped excitons (STEs) changes the microscopic relaxation process of excitons. In addition, we found that (Br-p-PEA) can increase the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). At the same time, we regulate the halogen-site of perovskites from lead-chloride perovskites (LCPs) to lead bromine perovskites (LBPs), achieving emission from white light to blue light. Therefore, the co-halogenation regulation strategy of organic cation-site and halogen-site can effectively regulate the photoluminescence wavelength and improve the PLQY. This is of great significance for the development of perovskite materials with specific optoelectronic applications.

Two-dimensional (2D) organic–inorganic perovskite hybrid materials with enhanced stability have attracted wide attention in optoelectronic field in recent years. Efforts of exploring new 2D perovskites with various organic or inorganic components have been devoted to further improve their solar cell efficiencies. In this work, three structurally similar spacer cations of phenylethylammonium (PEA), 4-bromophenylethylammonium (BPEA) and 4-chlorophenylethylammonium (CPEA) are selected to prepare multilayered 2D perovskites. It is found that the introduction of halogen atoms in the organic cations positively influences the film quality, light absorption, charge transport, device performance and moisture stability of the resulting perovskites. The (BPEA) 2 (MA) 4 Pb 5 I 16 and (CPEA) 2 (MA) 4 Pb 5 I 16 perovskites exhibit efficiencies of 7.38% and 10.88%, respectively, which are much higher than that of (PEA) 2 (MA) 4 Pb 5 I 16 (3.98%). Owning to the larger size and bigger electronegativity of halogen atom in spacer cations, the PCE of unsealed BPEA- and CPEA-based 2D perovskite devices maintains 73% and 63% of their original efficiency after 720 h exposure to 60% humid air, while the PEA-based 2D device decreases to 52% of its initial PCE. Our work demonstrates new insight to modify the quality and stability of 2D perovskite hybrids, highlighting the validity of molecule design of organic cations in improving the efficiency and stability of 2D perovskite solar cells.

It has been a long pursuit to discriminate the ionic roles of mono- and di-valent salt solutions in modulating the hydrogen bonding network and solution properties. We attended this issue by examining the effect of concentrated YX 2 (Y Mg, Ca, Sr; X Cl, Br) solvation on O:H O bonds transition from the mode of ordinary water to hydration in terms of the number fraction f YX2 ( C ) and the segmental O:H O bond phonon stiffness shift Δω(C) with C being the solute concentration. The invariant df Y ( C ) / dC at C ≤ <0.05 suggests that the small Y 2+ forms a constantly-sized hydration droplet with weak responding to interference of other ions because its hydrating H 2 O dipoles screen mostly its electric field. However, the number inadequacy of the highly-ordered hydrating H 2 O dipoles partially screens the large X − . The X − ↔ X − electrostatic repulsion weakens its electric field. The concentration-trend consistency of the f YX2 ( C ), the solution conductivity σ YX2 ( C ), and surface stress (contact angle) θ YX2 ( C ) for YX 2 solutions clarifies their common origin of ionic polarization. However, the Jones–Dale notion disobedience of the viscosity η YX2 ( C ) suggests the dominance of the inter-ion repulsion.

In this work, a series of Ag/AgX (X = Cl, Br, I)/g-C 3 N 4 (Ag/AgX/CN) composites were successfully fabricated by an in-situ solid phase method. The morphology and structure, photoluminescence and photoelectrochemical properties of composites were investigated in detail. The as-prepared Ag/AgX/CN composites were used as H 2 evolution photocatalysts under visible-light irradiation with a sacrificial agent . The experimental results revealed that Ag/AgI/CN-4 composite possesses highest-H 2 evolution rate (up to 59.22 μmol g −1 h −1 ) which are approximately 31 times higher than that of pure g-C 3 N 4 (1.94 μmol g −1 h −1 ). In addition, Ag/AgCl/CN-4 and Ag/AgBr/CN-4 composites also present high photocatalytic activities yielding, 26.39 and 18.05 μmol H2 g −1 h −1 , respectively. The enhanced photocatalytic activities of Ag/AgI/CN-4 composite might be attributed to the synergistic effect between Ag/AgI nanoparticles and g-C 3 N 4 and the localized surface plasmon resonance effect of metallic Ag. Moreover, Ag/AgI/CN-4 composite showed excellent recyclability and stability after five cycling photocatalytic tests (about 25 h). Furthermore, the possible photocatalytic mechanism of Ag/AgI/CN composites is proposed.

We developed a simple X − -assisted (X = Cl, Br, I) one-pot hydrothermal reaction to successfully synthesize a series of BiOX/Bi 2 WO 6 heterojunction. The effect of different halogens and their addition amount on the photocatalytic performance of BiOX/Bi 2 WO 6 composites was investigated using benzyl alcohol selective oxidation under visible-light irradiation. All BiOX could enhance the photocatalytic activity of Bi 2 WO 6 , but the BiOBr was the optimum for the maximum improvement of Bi 2 WO 6 . The match of energy band structure between BiOX and Bi 2 WO 6 resulted in the highly efficient separation of photogenerated charges, which was mainly attributed to their fundamental distinction of the photocatalytic activity. This work clarified the essential distinction in photocatalytic performance of the different halogen of BiOX/Bi 2 WO 6 heterojunction, and also provided guidance for the construction of efficient heterojunction photocatalysts.

Full-color visible emissions are particularly crucial for applications in displays and lightings. In this work, we developed a facile room-temperature ligand-assisted supersaturated recrystallization synthesis of monodisperse, cubic structure Cs1–mFAmPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I or their mixtures Cl/Br and Br/I, 0 ≤ m ≤ 1) hybrid perovskite quantum dots (QDs). Impressively, cation substitution of Cs+ by FA+ was beneficial in finely tuning the band gap and in exciton recombination kinetics, improving the structural stability, and raising the absolute quantum yields up to 85%. With further assistance of anion replacement, full-spectral visible emissions in the wavelength range of 450–750 nm; narrow full width at half-maxima, and a wide color gamut, encompassing 130% of National Television System Committee television color standard, were achieved. Finally, Cs1–mFAmPbX3-polymer films retaining multicolor luminescence are prepared and a prototype white light-emitting diode device was constructed using green Cs0.1FA0.9PbBr3 and red Cs0.1FA0.9Br1.5I1.5 QDs as color converters, certainly suggesting their potential applications in the optoelectronics field.

In recent years, inorganic perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have garnered significant attention, but the photoluminescence (PL) properties and stability of red-emitting PQDs need to be further enhanced. In this work, the precipitation of CsPb(Br/I) 3 quantum dots into borosilicate glass was effectively enabled by the high-temperature melt-quenching method. With the B 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio increased, the glass network structure gradually loosened, which enhanced the precipitation of PQDs. Simultaneously, the PL intensity of CsPb(Br/I) 3 PQDs glass increased, with a near twentyfold rise in the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). The variable temperature test of PQDs glass shows that PQDs glass has good thermal stability. Finally, a red-emitting LED and a WLED were prepared by using the prepared red-emitting CsPb(Br/I) 3 PQDs glass. This paper serves as a reference for incorporating red-emitting CsPb(Br/I) 3 PQDs glass into WLED development.

Producing hydrogen through water electrolysis represents a clean and sustainable solution that is crucial in addressing the energy crisis. Nonetheless, the slow process of water electrolysis leads to large different kinetics for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under different pH solutions. Here, we designed surface modified metallic X-Cu catalysts (X = F, Cl, Br) with different non-metallic elements on nickel foam (NF) using an electrochemical deposition method, which realizes high performance for all-pH range. In 1.0 M KOH, 1.0 M phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 media, F-Cu catalyst reaches 10 mA cm −2 with overpotentials of 56 mV, 110 mV, and 197 mV, respectively. Theoretical calculations disclose that the surface modification of F atom leads to redistribution of electrons, causing an upward shift of Cu’s d-band center and enhanced adsorption ability for H 2 O and H intermediates (H*). This work offers novel perspectives for designing Cu-based catalysts with high HER performance, making them applicable across all-pH conditions.
