Ethylene glycol is odorless and harmful to humans. Each year, a large number of fatal cases are caused by ethylene glycol poisoning. Therefore, rapid identification of ethylene glycol is crucial. In this study, clay-like Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene exhibits a larger interlayer spacing compared to accordion-like Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene, which enhances the gas diffusion channels. Nitrogen doping can increase the active sites of clay-like Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene. The introduction of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes into N-Ti 3 C 2 T x was carried out to enhance selectivity towards ethylene glycol, leading to the formation of N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs. The N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs exhibits significant selectivity towards the ethylene glycol at room temperature. Meanwhile, the detection limit was 0.3484 ppm, with a shortened response/recovery time of 10.57/6.29 s. Meanwhile, the ethylene glycol sensor device has been prepared through custom-made circuit boards and sensing programs. Moreover, the adsorption and oxidation process of ethylene glycol on N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs was explored through in-situ infrared spectroscopy testing. This study revealed that the oxygen vacancies on the surface of N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs play a crucial role in the oxidative catalytic detection of ethylene glycol. The strategy of N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs provides a new avenue for the detection of ethylene glycol.

Low-temperature catalytic oxidation is a prevalent technology for toluene removal due to its reduced energy demand. In this study, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was used to control the particle size of active metals. The activity tests revealed that Pt nanoparticles with a particle size of 5–15 nm exhibited higher activity for toluene oxidation and maintained good hydrothermal stability on the SBA-15 support. The results suggest that despite the increase of Pt particle size by using DMF, the proportion of Pt 0 and the oxygen activation ability were both increased. The reaction pathway of the toluene oxidation over Pt/SBA-15 was examined in depth by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), proton transfer reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometry (PTR-TOF-MS) and cluster analysis, revealing that the benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, and benzoic acid species were primary intermediate products. The benzaldehyde on the larger Pt nanoparticles is conducive to decomposing and generating CO 2 for complete mineralization, promoting the activity of toluene oxidation. This work highlights the significance of DMF-induced size effects in the development of low-temperature oxidation catalysts and understanding of reaction mechanism, guiding the design of new efficient toluene oxidation catalysts.

The misuse of sulfonamide and fluoroquinolone antibiotics leads to pollution of the water environment, necessitating the development of cost-effective and efficient degradation methods. This article presents a one-step hydrothermal method (200℃, 8 h) for the preparation of Fe-N-co-doped biochar/carbon quantum dots (Fe/N/BC/CQDs) as a photocatalytic material. The Fe/N/BC/CQDs was employed for the activation of H 2 O and O 2 , facilitating the degradation of sulfonamide and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, with superoxide radicals, photo-generated holes, hydroxyl radicals, and singlet oxygen dominated the photodegradation process. Under 1 h dark and 8 h natural light conditions, the degradation efficiency of norfloxacin, sulfathiazole, sulfamethoxazole, sulfamonomethoxine, sulfadoxin, sulfamethazine (10 mg/L) by Fe/N/BC/CQDs ranged from 74.21 % to 89.23 %. The potential degradation pathways of sulfonamide and fluoroquinolone antibiotics were proposed based on ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography tandem high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of the intermediates. The Fe-N-doped biochar’s hierarchical pore structure enhances synergistic adsorption-catalysis effects, while the incorporated carbon quantum dots (CQDs) broaden solar spectrum utilization, effectively overcoming the high-intensity light dependency common to conventional photocatalysts. Efficient charge separation was achieved through the formation of a p-n heterojunction between Fe-N-co-doped biochar and CQDs. Additionally, the applicability of Fe/N/BC/CQDs in real water systems was confirmed, providing valuable insights for the construction of p-n heterojunction structures to degrade organic pollutants in water.

Uridine 5′-diphosphate N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) is a natural UDP-monosaccharide donor for bacterial glycosyltransferases, while uridine 5′-diphosphate N-trifluoacetyl glucosamine (UDP-GlcNTFA) is its synthetic mimic. The chemoenzymatic synthesis of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-GlcNTFA was attempted by three recombinant enzymes. Recombinant N-acetylhexosamine 1-kinase was used to produce GlcNAc/GlcNTFA-1-phosphate from GlcNAc/GlcNTFA. N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate uridyltransferase from Escherichia coli K12 MG1655 was used to produce UDP-GlcNAc/GlcNTFA from GlcNAc/GlcNTFA-1-phosphate. Inorganic pyrophosphatase from E. coli K12 MG1655 was used to hydrolyze pyrophosphate to accelerate the reaction. The above enzymes were expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) and purified, respectively, and finally mixed in one-pot bioreactor. The effects of reaction conditions on the production of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-GlcNTFA were characterized. To avoid the substrate inhibition effect on the production of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-GlcNTFA, the reaction was performed with fed batch of substrate. Under the optimized conditions, high production of UDP-GlcNAc (59.51 g/L) and UDP-GlcNTFA (46.54 g/L) were achieved in this three-enzyme one-pot system. The present work is promising to develop an efficient scalable process for the supply of UDP-monosaccharide donors for oligosaccharide synthesis.

This work aims at probing the formation of hydrogen bonds in the blends of polybenzoxazines and additional hydrogen-bond donor moieties-containing compounds. Based on experimental study and computer simulations, we found that the dominant hydrogen bonds of p -cresol-aniline-based dimer ( p C-a-D) and polybenzoxazines (P p C-a) were OH⋯N while N,N ′-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)diacetamide (DAA) was NH⋯O C hydrogen bond. After blending p C-a-D or P p C-a with DAA, additional hydrogen bonds formed, i.e. , OH⋯O C and OH⋯ NH. Moreover, the total quantity of hydrogen bonds of the blends increased. These results suggested that hydrogen bonds formed between polybenzoxazines and the additional hydrogen-bond donor moieties-containing polymers or compounds, and furthermore would be desirable to foster the promoted performance. This novel insight about polybenzoxazine blends is anticipated to help researchers explore more blends of polybenzoxazines with excellent properties.

Photoelectrochemical cathodic protection is emerging as a green and environmental method to protect metals against corrosion. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) shows great application potential in this area because of its high efficiency, high stability and low cost. However, the pristine g-C 3 N 4 shows amphoteric properties, resulting in its failure in providing photoelectrochemical cathodic protection for the coupled metal in NaCl solution. In this work, a K&I co-doping technique was performed to modulate the band structure of g-C 3 N 4 , and an n-type g-C 3 N 4 (n-C 3 N 4 ) was obtained. The changes in the molecular structure were studied by SEM, HRTEM , XRD , EDS, XPS and FT-IR technologies. The n-type semiconductor characteristics were verified by the photoinduced i-V curves, SKP potential distributions and pH drift techniques. The n-C 3 N 4 can generate positive photocurrent in the whole investigated potential range, making it able to provide photoelectrochemical cathodic protection for the coupled 316L stainless steel in NaCl solution. This work is very helpful for promoting the application of g-C 3 N 4 in the fields of the photoelectric conversion and the photoelectrochemical cathodic protection.

Inorganic complexants, such as ammonia (AA) and pyrophosphate (PP), are often present alongside heavy metal ions in alkaline plating rinsing wastewater. We investigated the removal capacity of Ni(II) from waters containing [Ni-xNH 3 -yP 2 O 7 ] n complexes by chelating and ion-exchange resins in sole and dual-ligand systems. D463 (containing iminodiacetic groups) and PAMD (possessing polyamine groups) exerted superior performance under all conditions. Ni(II) adsorption on D463 decreased with AA and PP by 10.3% and 64.4%, respectively. Conversely, the adsorption on PAMD increased by 57.3% and 75.8%, respectively. PAMD exhibited high selectivity toward anionic [Ni-PP] species over free PP. More Ni(II) was captured by PAMD in the dual-ligand systems than sole systems, while the case for D463 was opposite. As confirmed by species tracking and DFT/XPS analyses, complexes breaking-Ni 2+ capture was the dominant mechanism for D463, while the dual-site (non-charged and protonated amines) interactions with NiP 2 O 7 2– on PAMD promoted its adsorption. The tandem combination D463-PAMD was the optimal mode to remove the most Ni(II). The actual wastewater test demonstrated that >210 BV effluent met the limit of 0.1 mg Ni(II)/L and the eluent contained 15 g Ni(II)/L. This study guides the application of chelating adsorption processes in the advanced treatment of plating rinsing wastewaters.

Dual-stimulated wormlike micelles regulated by pH and temperature in a surface active ionic liquid system comprising of a cationic surfactant ( N -cetyl- N -methylpyrrolidinium bromide (C 16 MDB)) and an aromatic dibasic acid (pyrocatechol) were investigated. Such a system can be reversibly switched between liquid-like and gel-like states on adjusting the solution pH value. The rheology, light scattering techniques and cryogenic-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) results show the growth of spherical micelles into long and entangled wormlike micelles was responsible for the changes in flow properties such as high viscosity, shear-thinning behaviour and Maxwell-type dynamic rheology. The nuclear magnetic resonance results reveal the binding capacity of pyrocatechol to C 16 MDB is proposed as the key factor of the unusual rheological and micellar responses of this pH-stimulated system. In addition, with the increase of temperature, molecular motion of surfactant molecules becomes more active, which endow the property of thermo-stimulated to the surface active ionic liquid system.

A series of poly(N-arylene benzimidazole ether imide) copolymers PEIBIs were prepared from 1H,3′H-5,5′-bis-benzimidazole, bisphenol-A and 4,4′-bis(4-fluorophthalimido)diphenyl ether by nucleophilic displacement polymerization. The resulting copolymers PEIBI(10–90) demonstrated moderate to good solubility in polar aprotic solvents and high glass transition temperatures (Tgs) of 228–336°C, good thermal stability with 10% weight loss temperatures in the range of 503–548°C. All copolymer films showed good mechanical properties with tensile strengths of 101–130 MPa, tensile moduli of 3.3–4.0 GPa, elongations at break of 5–7%, and also presented low water uptake (0.15–0.34%). The wide-angle X-ray diffraction results revealed the amorphous nature of copolymers. The copolymer PEIBI-80 showed good balance in solubility, thermal and mechanical properties.

Graphical CO 2 -mediated reactions: CO 2 -mediated metathesis reactions between amines and DMF to synthesize formamides are described. The N -formylation of amines to formamides is achieved by activating amines, not DMF, via a C N and N H bond metathesis reaction. Using this method, primary, secondary, aromatic, and heterocyclic amines as well as diamines can be obtained with good to excellent formamide yields. Herein, we report CO 2 -mediated metathesis reactions between amines and DMF to synthesize formamides. More than 20 amines, including primary, secondary, aromatic, and heterocyclic amines, diamines, and amino acids, are converted to the corresponding formamides with good-to-excellent conversions and selectivities under mild conditions. This strategy employs CO 2 as a mediator to activate the amine under metal-free conditions. The experimental data and in situ NMR and attenuated total reflectance IR spectroscopy measurements support the formation of the N -carbamic acid as an intermediate through the weak acid–base interaction between CO 2 and the amine. The metathesis reaction is driven by the formation of a stable carbamate, and a reaction mechanism is proposed.

Transition metal-catalyzed semi-hydrogenation of alkynes has become one of the most popular methods for alkene synthesis. Specifically, the noble metal Pd, Rh, and Ru-based heterogeneous catalysts have been widely studied and utilized in both academia and industry. But the supported noble metal catalysts are generally suffering from leaching or aggregation during harsh reaction conditions, which resulting low catalytic reactivity and stability. Herein, we reported the facile synthesis of nitrogen doped graphene encapsulated Pd catalyst and its application in the chemo-selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. The graphene layer served as “bulletproof” over the active Pd Nano metal species, which was confirmed by X-ray and TEM analysis, enhanced the catalytic stability during the reaction conditions. The optimized prepared Pd@N/C catalyst showed excellent efficiency in semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene and other types of alkynes with un-functionalized or functionalized substituents, including the hydrogenation sensitive functional groups (NO 2 , ester, and halogen).

Although dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) solvent has been widely researched in rechargeable lithium-oxygen (Li-O 2 ) batteries , high polarization voltage and low rate capability limited its application. In this work, we reported a DMSO-based electrolyte system by adding N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) to adjust its physical and electrochemical properties. The ionic conductivity , viscosity, oxygen solubility and diffusion coefficient of the mixed electrolytes as well as their electrochemical performance in Li-O 2 batteries are researched. The electrochemical tests show that the optimized DMSO/DMA volume ratio is 30 to 70 based on the rate performance and polarization voltage of the cell. Compared with that of the pure DMSO-based electrolyte, the cell with the mixed electrolyte shows improved rate capability and reduced charge-discharge over-potential. When increasing current density from 0.2 to 0.5 mA cm −2 , the capability retention improves from 32% to 59%. Meanwhile, the charge-discharge voltage gap drops from 1.4V to 0.9V at a current density of 0.2 mA cm −2 . The improved electrochemical performance could be attributed to low viscosity, high oxygen solubility and diffusion coefficient as well as the low charge-transfer resistance with the mixed electrolyte.
