Brønsted acid ionic liquids (BAILs) are effective to biodiesel production of in situ transesterification of wet algae due to their dual role as both solvents of cellulose and catalysts of transesterification. The cellulose solubilities of BAILs are depending on H-bonding of BAILs-cellulose in varied solvent conditions, which subsequently affect the biodiesel productions. For this reason, the effects of H-bonding between BAILs including [Bmim][H2PO4], [Bmim]2[HPO4], [Bmim][HSO4], and cellulose under different methanol and water conditions on cellulose extractions are experimentally and theoretically investigated. The cellulose extractions in BAILs are decreasing as [Bmim][H2PO4] > [Bmim]2[HPO4] > [Bmim][HSO4], contrary to the variation of their thermal stabilities and crystallinities caused by varied H-bonding of BAILs-cellulose. Increasing methanol is positive to cellulose extractions in [Bmim][HSO4], while negative to those in [Bmim][H2PO4] and [Bmim]2[HPO4], due to the solvent effect of methanol confirmed by cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements. The effect of water on H-bonding of BAILs-cellobiose is contrary to the effect of methanol. It is confirmed via the bonding interaction of BAILs-cellobiose through the density functional theory (DFT) computational method. However, the biodiesel yields are varied differently due to the competition of H-bonding of BAILs-cellobiose and deprotonation of BAILs under different methanol and water conditions. This study might pave the way to neutralize the negative effect of water on in situ transesterification via enhancing the cellulose extractions of BAILs.

H-beta zeolites of 100–200 nm (named BEA-L) and 20–30 nm (named BEA-S) were treated by chemical liquid deposition (CLD) of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) to improve the selectivity of 2-phenyl linear alkylbenzene (2-LAB) from benzene alkylation with 1-dodecene. The results indicate that H-beta zeolite with a smaller crystal size has a longer lifetime due to shorter channels and less diffusion limitation. The deposited SiO2 layers passivated the external surface acid sites of the zeolite and made the pores narrower. BEA-L lost more external Brønsted acid sites than BEA-S with the same added amount of TEOS, which was due to the severe aggregation of BEA-S grains. This increased passivation gave BEA-L increased 2-LAB selectivity. And when the added amount of SiO2 was 7.20 wt% of the parent zeolite, the selectivity of 2-LAB over BEA-L significantly increased from 41.9% to 54.7% while that of BEA-S only increased by 2%.

DNA templated fluorescent copper nanoclusters (DNA-CuNCs) have demonstrated enormous potential for biochemical analysis. However, most of them are focused on DNA-related sensing. Here, we designed a hairpin DNA/RNA chimeric chain for the formation of fluorescent CuNCs and further applied it to detect reverse transcription-associated ribonuclease H (RNase H). The DNA/RNA chimera templated copper nanoclusters (DNA/RNA-CuNCs) exhibited similar spectral properties with DNA-CuNCs. In the presence of RNase H, the RNA segment in chimera is hydrolyzed and release short oligonucleotides, which fail to synthsize fluorescent CuNCs. The capabilities for RNase H detection from complex samples and screening of inhibitors were verified. This strategy exhibited high sensitivity for RNase H with a detectable minimum concentration of 5.5 × 10 −4 U mL -1 , which is lower than the developed fluorescent methods. This work will open up new thoughts to design new template for metal nanoclusters and broaden their application in RNA-related sensing.

Recently, all-inorganic perovskite (CsPbX 3 (X = Cl, Br, I)) nanocrystals (NCs) have caused extensive attention due to their high photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY), high color purity, and narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM). Although the excellent optical properties of perovskite NCs (PNCs) endow them good application prospects, their inherent instability severely limits the commercialization process. In this paper, highly-luminescence and ultra-stable phosphor were obtained by loading PNCs onto the surface of amino modified hexagonal boron-nitride (h-BN) white graphene (PNCs-BNWG), This structural design can effectively suppress the attenuation of photoluminescence (PL) intensity and enhance thermal stability, thereby realizing the high stability and brightness white LEDs. The synthesis process is simple and can be finished in a few minutes to ensure scalable production. Compared with bare PNCs, it can maintain excellent optical properties. The high PL QY and thermal stability mainly stem from the isolation effect that separates PNCs from each other on the surface of BNWG and their superior high transparency as well as thermal conductivity . In addition, multi-color inks are produced by dispersing PNCs-BNWG nanocomposites in PDMS to form a multicolor painting demonstrating high PL QY and wide color gamut.

The separation of water and oil is a promising work due to the increasing worldwide oil pollution and leakage of chemical solvents. Superhydrophobic porous materials were prepared for their separation. In this work, various porous substrates of copper meshes, filter papers and polyurethane (PU) sponges were chosen to obtain superhydrophobic surfaces. Superhydrophobic surfaces were fabricated by polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and hydrophobic nano-silica particle coatings through a spraying approach. The superhydrophobicity, stability of coatings and oil/water separation effect of these as-coated materials were studied. The results demonstrated that all the surfaces showed high water contact angles (>150°), good reusability and excellent oil selectively. Moreover, the coated filter paper was scaled up for practical use of removing trace water from mineral insulating oil in our group. It is promising that this superhydrophobic coating could be used in more applications.

An intramolecular aryl C−H amination reaction has been achieved using molecular iodine as the sole oxidant for the synthesis of benzimidazole derivatives. The required substrates were readily prepared by addition or coupling of arylamines with the corresponding nitriles or aryl iodides. Iodine-mediated oxidative cyclization of these substrates in the presence of potassium carbonate (K 2 CO 3 ) as base afforded the corresponding products in moderate to good yields. The transition metal-free protocol presented here is insensitive to air and operationally simple. This versatile and eco-friendly synthetic methodology is broadly applicable to a variety of N -aryl-substituted amidines and pyridin-2-amines, and provides direct access to both 1 H -benzo[ d ]imidazole and pyrido[1,2- a ]benzimidazole derivatives from the corresponding precursors.

In order to develop highly sensitive immunoassays for detecting the major peanut allergen, Ara h 2, we prepared six monoclonal antibodies (mAb) with high affinity to Ara h 2. Using mAb 5 as a capture antibody and HRP-labeled mAb 1 as a detection antibody, a sandwich enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) was established with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.02 ng/mL. An immunochromatographic strip based on these two mAbs was also established with a LOD of 1 ng/mL. Both tests showed high specificity in cross-reactivity experiments. Sample analyses indicated that these two immunoassays were feasible, accurate, and highly sensitive for measuring allergen Ara h 2 of food.

We have established a highly sensitive sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on two monoclonal antibodies (mAb) to measure the content of the major peanut allergen Ara h 1 in foods. Two mAbs were selected out of 12 murine hybridoma cells secreting Ara h 1-specific antibody. Using mAb 6 as the capture antibody and HRP-labelled mAb 4 as the detection antibody, the limit of detection (LOD) the assay was 0.34 ng/mL. Cross-reaction analysis showed that this method was strongly specific and had no cross-reactions with Ara h 2, pea protein or soy protein. Sample analysis showed that this ELISA was a useful tool to monitor peanut allergens in food products by measuring Ara h 1 content.Keywords:peanut allergen;Ara h 1;monoclonal antibody;sandwich ELISA

Swerilactones H–K ( 1 – 4 ) as four unprecedented secoiridoid trimers represent a new type of natural product, which has attracted much interest of natural chemists due to their novel skeletons and promising bioactivity. In order to well understand their MS fragmentation behaviors, they were investigated by electrospray ionization ion-trap time-of-flight multistage product ion mass spectrometry (ESI-IT-TOF-MS n ) for the first time. The protonated molecules ([M+H] + ) of swerilactones J and K, and deprotonated molecules ([M−H] − ) of swerilactones H, J and K were readily observed in the conventional single-stage mass spectra (MS); however only the [M+Cl] − ion for swerilactone I was obtained in negative mode. Based on the MS n study, the fragmentation pathways of swerilactones H and I in negative mode, and swerilactones J and K in both positive and negative modes were proposed. The neutral losses of H 2 O, CO, CO 2 and C 2 H 4 O moieties are the particular elimination from the precursor ions due to the presence of hydroxyl, δ -lactone and 1- O -ethyl moieties in their structures, of which the retro-Diels–Alder cleavage was the most particular dissociation. The fragment ions at m/z 341 and 291 in negative mode can be considered as the diagnostic ions for secoiridoid trimers. This investigation will provide valuable information for their fast characterization from complicated natural mixtures and extensive understanding their structural architectures.

Micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coatings of aluminum alloy have great potential applications due to their high hardness and wear resistance. However, the micro-pores and defects formed in the discharge channels during the MAO process limit its application in the corrosion field. This study delves into the impact of h-BN nanoparticles into MAO coatings on their structure, corrosion resistance, phase composition, and tribological properties. The results show that the incorporation of h-BN particles reduces the porosity and surface roughness of the coating while enhancing its hardness and wear resistance. The best corrosion resistance is obtained at a concentration of 2 g/L h-BN. An analysis of worn surface morphology, corrosion resistance, and friction coefficient change was conducted to evaluate the performance of this coating. This method provides a new approach to enhance the surface hardness and wear resistance of aluminum alloys, which is significant for expanding the application of aluminum alloys in corrosion environments.

Electrophotocatalytic C-H hydroxylation of benzene is an emerging green technology with high potential for producing phenol in one step. However, it is still limited by efficiency and scale-up challenges in batch process. In this study, a novel electrophotochemical flow microreactor was designed and manufactured using 3D printing technology. Static mixers were incorporated to enhance the mixing. The effect of various parameters, such as electrode materials, reaction time, potential, and reactant concentration, etc., on the continuous synthesis of phenol in the as-developed microreactor was investigated. Furthermore, machine learning (ML) algorithms were employed to explore the impact of these parameters on the reaction efficiency. With cost-effective electrodes, higher phenol productivity was achieved in the present flow microreactor when comparing with batch counterpart and literature value. This study offers insights into the optimization of electrophotochemical microreactor for the hydroxylation of benzene, and provides guidance for exploring sustainable electrophotocatalytic organic synthesis in flow.
