To enhance the special selectivity and recognizability of two kinds of typical phenylarsonic compounds ( p -arsanilic acid ( p -ASA) and roxarsone (ROX)) in complicated water bodies, novel double-template molecularly imprinted polymers (DMIPs) were successfully synthesized via the suspension polymerization method. Subsequently, laboratory scale tests were carried out to systematically investigate the adsorption behavior and performance of p -ASA and ROX by using polymers. The result indicated that DMIPs exhibited super p -ASA/ROX sequestration and immobilization compared with non-imprinted polymers (DNIPs), which was associated with imprinting effect of polymers. The better removal efficiency of p -ASA/ROX by DMIPs were occurred in a broad pH region (3.0–9.0), whereas solution pH severely affected the uptake of DNIPs for organic arsenic compounds. According to the remarkable binding selectivity and special recognizability of DMIPs, common inorganic ions and natural organic matters (NOM) were negligible influence on targeted pollutants removal, and excellent adsorption capacity could still maintain even in the presence of interfering substances that displayed similar chemical structure with templates to a certain extent. Finally, the remarkable reusability and stable performance in continuous flow studies demonstrated the obtained DMIPs were promising candidates for simultaneously and effectively eliminating these multiple organic arsenic pollutants in harsh and complicated aquatic environment.

Graphical From tannic acid to water splitting : Amorphous Co−P/Co−N−C supported on N, P co-doped porous carbon (Co−P/Co−N−C/NPC) with a large specific surface area and abundant reactive sites is prepared. The material exhibits outstanding catalytic performance for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER, η =234 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ), oxygen evolution reaction (OER, η =374 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR, E 1/2 =0.89 V, vs. RHE). It remains a tremendous challenge to develop a low-cost, earth-abundant, and efficient catalyst with multifunctional activities for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, a facile and scalable avenue was developed to prepare amorphous Co−P/Co−N−C supported on N, P co-doped porous carbon (Co−P/Co−N−C/NPC) with a large specific surface area (1462.9 m 2 g −1 ) and abundant reactive sites including Co−P, Co−N and NPC. The prepared electrocatalyst exhibits outstanding catalytic performance for HER ( η =234 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ), OER ( η =374 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ), and ORR ( E 1/2 =0.89 V, vs. reversible hydrogen electrode). Benefiting from the excellent HER performance and outstanding OER activity, the Co−P/Co−N−C/NPC delivers a current density of 10 mA cm −2 for overall water splitting at a cell voltage of 1.59 V, which is comparable with the IrO 2 –Pt/C couple electrode.

Biomass electrocatalytic-conversion coupled with hydrogen generation exhibits low energy consumption, efficient hydrogen production and green syntheses of value-added chemicals. However, constructing electrocatalysts with precise electronic modulation and structures for efficient biomass electrocatalytic conversion coupled hydrogen production remains challenging. Herein, a bacterial cellulose substrate was combined in situ with a Mn-doped NiFe Prussian blue analogue (PBA) precursor, and one-step carbonization-phosphorylation was developed for the preparation of Mn-doped nickel iron phosphate (MNFP) embedded in a P, N codoped carbon (PNC) substrate grown directly on P-doped carbonized bacterial cellulose (MNFP-PNC/PCBC). Benefiting from the three-dimensional network structure of P-doped carbonized bacterial cellulose (PCBC) and atomic doping, MNFP-PNC/PCBC exhibited an optimized electronic structure, abundant active sites and excellent electrical conductivity. Therefore, the voltages required with hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and glucose electrocatalytic-conversion (GCR) to drive a current density of 50 mA cm −2 were 0.214, 1.5, and 1.34 V, respectively. Moreover, the required cell voltage of the novel electrolyser containing MNFP-PNC/PCBC as electrodes can be further reduced to 1.55 V at 50 mA cm −2 compared to overall water splitting, resulting in more than 8-time improvement in hydrogen production efficiency and production of value-added formate. This work provides a unique approach for electrocatalytic-conversion of biomass coupled with electrocatalytic hydrogen generation.

The economic value of recovering gold from electronic waste (e-waste) has generated significant interest, but selective capture of gold from complex acidic electronic leaching solutions remains challenging. Here, we synthesized poly-m-phenylenediamine (PmPD) nanoparticles with a positively charged surface and amino functional groups, resulting in an adsorption capacity of 2063 mg/g for Au(III) in acidic solutions, superior to most traditional adsorbents. Electrostatic adsorption and reduction were identified as the adsorption mechanism for Au(III) by zeta potential, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses. To enable adsorbent recycling, PmPD nanoparticles were assembled into adsorptive membranes and used for gold recovery from e-wastewater via a continuous-flow membrane separation process. The PmPD membrane achieved a dynamic gold recovery capacity of approximately 530 mg/g and could be effectively regenerated after washing with a mixture of thiourea and HCl. We demonstrated the practical application of the adsorptive membranes by recovering about 100% of gold from the leaching solution of waste printed circuit boards of computers. Finally, the recovered gold nanoparticles on the PmPD membrane were used to catalyze the degradation of p-nitrophenol, showcasing the catalytic property of gold. The Au@PmPD membrane loaded with 4 mg gold exhibited a high catalytic reduction performance with an apparent rate constant of 0.59 min–1, one of the highest catalytic degradation rate constants of p-nitrophenol reported to date. Our study presents an effective and economical approach for recovering gold from e-waste, providing a prototype of resource recovery and reuse.

This study examined the hepatic effects of parous exposure to the rubber-derived contaminant N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) and its oxidation product, N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine-quinone (6PPDQ), in C57BL/6 mice during gestation and lactation. Both compounds exhibited dose-dependent bioaccumulation in the liver of the F0 generation and lactated F1 offspring, with 6PPDQ accumulating more due to its greater stability. Lactational transmission of both compounds was observed, and the accumulation declined with age, disappearing by 8 weeks. Notably, 6PPDQ exposure resulted in reduced body weight in mature F1 female mice, which was associated with altered cholesterol metabolism and disrupted expression of the estrogen receptor gene. In these mice, molecular analysis revealed dysregulation of key cholesterol-related genes, such as HMGCR and PCSK9. In contrast, male offspring showed less pronounced effects. These results indicate that the toxicity of 6PPD and 6PPDQ can be transmitted through placental and lactational pathways, with 6PPDQ presenting a greater risk, particularly to female mice, through its impact on cholesterol metabolism and endocrine signalling. These findings offer valuable insights for assessing the environmental and health risks associated with these compounds.

This study aims to evaluate the interaction of flavonoid–flavonoid by inhibiting the function of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The cellular uptake of seven substrates and eleven co-incubated inhibitors was measured in KB/MDR cells. The effect of galangin or morin on the absorption of silibinin or wogonin was carried out in the rat everted gut sacs. Docking was performed to evaluate the interactions between inhibitors and P-gp. Most substrates were greatly enhanced by at least five co-incubated inhibitors. Conversely, the increased uptake of substrates coincided with a decrease or without affecting the uptake of inhibitors, implying a competitive/non-competitive inhibition on P-gp. The enhancement effect by galangin or morin on the transport of silibinin or wogonin was verified in everted gut sacs. Docking explained the inhibition of flavonoids on P-gp by competitively binding to the ATP site. These results provide a strategy for increasing the absorption of flavonoids by co-administration.

The development of full-spectrum photocatalysts active in the near-infrared (NIR) region has gained increasing attention in the photodegradation of organic pollutants. Herein, we designed a full-spectrum photocatalyst with strong NIR photoactivity based on the synergy of Er3+-doped ZnO-CuO-ZnAl2O4 multi-phase oxides (Er3+-doped Zn/Cu/Al-MPO) via the formation of n–p–n double heterojunctions. The photocatalyst was prepared by synthesizing nanosheets of a Zn/Cu/Al/Er hydrotalcite-like compound (Zn/Cu/Al/Er-HLC) with a co-precipitation method followed by calcination of the nanosheets at 800 °C. The as-prepared Er3+-doped Zn/Cu/Al-MPO inherits the nanosheet morphology of Zn/Cu/Al/Er-HLC, and displays over-doubled photoactivity in the entire ultraviolet (UV), visible and NIR regions compared to undoped Zn/Cu/Al-MPO. The excellent photocatalytic activity of Er3+-doped Zn/Cu/Al-MPO, especially its strong NIR photoactivity, is ascribed to its Er3+-doped CuO-involved multi-crystalline phase heterostructure, i.e., n–p–n double heterojunctions, which does not only offer an enhanced NIR absorption but also promotes the separation of photogenerated charge carriers. Importantly, the synergy of all the parts of the n–p–n double heterojuctions plays an important role in interface band structure regulation for the enhancement of the photocatalytic properties of Er3+-doped Zn/Cu/Al-MPO. This work has demonstrated the feasibility of utilizing hydrotalcite-like precursors in the design of full-spectrum photocatalysts active in the NIR region.

Organophosphorus compounds are the core structure of many active natural products. The synthesis of these compounds is generally achieved by metal catalysis requiring specifically functionalized substrates or harsh conditions. Herein, we disclose the phospha-Michael addition reaction of biphenyphosphine oxide with various substituted β-nitrostyrenes or benzylidene malononitriles. This biocatalytic strategy provides a direct route for the synthesis of C-P bonds with good functional group compatibility and simple and practical operation. Under the optimal conditions (styrene (0.5 mmol), biphenyphosphine oxide (0.5 mmol), Novozym 435 (300 U), and EtOH (1 mL)), lipase leads to the formation of organophosphorus compounds in yields up to 94% at room temperature. Furthermore, we confirm the role of the catalytic triad of lipase in this phospha-Michael addition reaction. This new biocatalytic system will have broad applications in organic synthesis.Keywords:lipase;biocatalysts;promiscuity;C-P bonds;Michael addition reactions

P-type doping is a rational strategy for the enhancement of hole transporting properties of the organic semiconductors as well as the device performance of organic photo-electric devices. We originally introduce a stable and solution processed p-type dopant based on N-oxoammonium salts termed 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxopiperidinebromide salt (TEMPO-Br) for 2,2′,7,7′-tetrakis(N, N-di-p-methoxyphenyl-amine)9,9′-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD) based solid state dye sensitized solar cells (ssDSC). By introducing TEMPO-Br doped Spiro-OMeTAD and a commercialized D-π-A sensitizer into ssDSCs, a promising device performance of 6.83% is achieved under simulated AM 1.5G solar irradiation (100 mW cm −2 ), which is significantly better than the control devices (∼1.7 times). The doping effect of TEMPO-Br on the photophysical and electrochemical properties of Spiro-OMeTAD, solid state device performance, cationic dye regeneration kinetics and preliminary long-term stability have been systematically investigated. This work indicates a potential application of N-oxoammonium salts as chemical P-type dopants for triphenylamine based hole transporting materials in solid state photo-electric devices.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) was adopted for the first time to load Pd nanoparticles on Al2O3 ceramic membranes (CMs) for fabricating catalytic membranes (Pd/CMs). The membrane surface was functionalized with the deposition of TiO2 by ALD and subsequent calcination under different atmospheres [CM-TiO2-A, obtained by calcination under an atmosphere of pure argon; CM-TiO2-H, obtained by calcination under a mixed atmosphere of H2 and Ar (H2/Ar = 1:9 in volume)]. The influence of the TiO2 deposition on the microstructure of catalytic membranes and their catalytic performance in p-nitrophenol reduction to p-aminophenol were investigated in detail. The catalytic activity of Pd/CM-TiO2-H improved by 1.9 times compared to Pd/CM, and 100% conversion of p-nitrophenol to p-aminophenol can be achieved. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy results indicate that the ALD of TiO2 and subsequent calcination under a 10% H2 atmosphere can produce more surface oxygen vacancies, providing more active sites for Pd(hfac)2 adsorption and then promoting the loading of Pd nanoparticles. The XPS and H2 temperature-programmed reduction results suggest that calcining TiO2 under the 10% H2 atmosphere is more beneficial for the removal of the hfac ligands and the reduction of Pd(hfac)2, leading to a higher Pd0 ratio. These two aspects contribute to the superior catalytic activity of Pd/CM-TiO2-H.

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) is an intriguing physical phenomenon, which is of great significance for the high precision application. In this work, we have realized to broaden the NTE temperature zone in Mg 2 P 2 O 7 -based bulk material by doping Cu atom on the Mg site. A joint study of Raman scattering and X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicates that there are double phases in the NTE temperature zone, and the NTE of Mg 1.9 Cu 0.1 P 2 O 7 bulk material comes from the phase transition of α - and β -phase. The present work provides a way to optimize negative thermal expansion property in phase transition typed materials.

Visible light photocatalytic nitrogen fixation, as a low-cost and mild technology, needs efforts to explore an economical photocatalyst with high activity and stability. In this study, a metal-free black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets-decorated graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets photocatalyst (BPCNS) has been successfully synthesized. With BP acting as the cocatalyst, BPCNS shows excellent performance in both visible light nitrogen photofixation and pollutant reduction owing to the increased number of excited electrons and enhanced separation efficiency of charge carriers through formation of C P covalent bonds. Besides, the chemical structure of the BPCNS with optimal content of BP remains the same after exposure to air for 30 days or after five cycles of photocatalytic nitrogen fixation, since the occupation of the lone pairs on phosphorus atoms largely improves the chemical stability of BP.
