Mass spectrometry (MS) is the most powerful tool in phosphoproteomics research. However, phosphopeptides usually are present in low concentrations and their preconcentration therefore is highly desired. We describe a two-step method for the synthesis of a metal organic framework of the type MIL-101(Cr) that is modified with urea (then designated as MIL-101(Cr)-UR 2 ). It possesses large surface area, good solvent stability and high affinity for some phosphates. Due to the presence of modified urea functions, this material allows for selective and effective enrichment of phosphorylated peptides. It was successfully applied to the enrichment of phosphopeptides from non-fat-milk. The method was applied to the detection of phosphopeptides in a tryptic digest of β-casein where is showed a detection sensitivity as low as 10 −10 M.
A two step method was designed to synthesis MIL-101(Cr)-UR 2 and the prepared green solid was successfully applied to recognize phosphopeptides.

In the present paper, a metal–organic framework Cr-BDC was prepared and used as adsorbent for adsorption of o -nitrophenol (ONP) and p -nitrophenol (PNP) from aqueous solutions. Cr-BDC was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and BET methods. The results indicate that Cr-BDC gets a very large specific surface area of 4128 m 2 ·g − 1 and pore sizes are concentrated in 1 nm, which is a benefit for using for wastewater treatment . The influences of the adsorption conditions, such as temperature, solution concentration, adsorption time and reusability on adsorption performance were investigated. Cr-BDC exhibited an encouraging uptake capacity of 310.0 mg·g − 1 for ONP, and adsorption capacity of Cr-BDC for ONP is significantly higher than that for PNP under suitable adsorption conditions. The characterizations of adsorption process were examined with the Lagergren pseudo-first-order, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and the intra-particular diffusion model. Kinetics experiments indicated that the pseudo-second-order model displayed the best correlation with adsorption kinetics data. Furthermore, our adsorption equilibrium data could be better described by the Freundlich equation. The results indicate that the as-prepared Cr-BDC is promising for use as an effective and economical adsorbent for ONP removal.

After polystyrene@titanium dioxide (PS@TiO 2 ) composite with different size was calcined at designated temperature, TiO 2 hollow sphere with controllable size was obtained for high efficient photo-reduction of Cr(VI). The feature of the TiO 2 hollow sphere was investigated by SEM, TEM , XRD , UV–Vis, and photoluminescence . The photo-reduction of Cr(VI) were measured for the performance assessment of the TiO 2 hollow sphere, Cr(VI) was used as an electron acceptor . After irradiation for 2 h, the photo-reduction rate of Cr(VI) (pH = 2.82) for TiO 2 (450 nm) was 96%, which exhibited an increase of 5% and 8% compared with TiO 2 (370 nm) and TiO 2 (600 nm). The absorption edges of TiO 2 hollow sphere (450 nm) was largest with the increasing of hollow sphere size from 370 to 600 nm. The optimal hollow sphere size of TiO 2 was 450 nm for the photo-reduction of Cr(VI), because the light-harvesting efficiency (the best of absorption edge) and photo-generated electron-hole separation rate (the best of photo-reduction rate) of TiO 2 hollow sphere were controlled by its hollow sphere size. In addition, we find that the behavior of the hydrogen production was inhibited by the coexistence Cr(VI) solution. This study can improve our understanding of the mechanism for the activity enhancement by the optimal hollow sphere size of TiO 2 .

Mechanochemically sulfidated microscale zero valent iron (S-mZVI bm ) exhibits promising Cr(VI) removal performance but is prone to be passivated by Cr(VI), how to mitigate the passivation is still a challenge. In this study, we successfully synthesized phthalic acid (PA, carboxyl-rich organic acid) modified S-mZVI bm particles (PA-S-mZVI bm (4:1)) through ball milling. The pre-corrosion of the ZVI surface by PA effectively increased the specific surface area of ZVI. Additionally, the carboxyl groups complexed with Cr(VI), thereby enhancing its Cr(VI) removal capacity and alleviating the passivation. The Cr(VI) removal by PA-S-mZVI bm (4:1) was mainly a chemisorption process on the surface and its Cr(VI) removal capacity (55.47 mg/g) was 1.26 and 9.94 – 14.83 times that of PA-mZVI bm and S-mZVI bm , respectively. The electron efficiency of Cr(VI) removal by both PA-S-mZVI bm (4:1) and S-mZVI bm was ∼100 %, however, the Fe(0) utilization efficiency of PA-S-mZVI bm (4:1) was at least 15 times higher than that of S-mZVI bm , explaining the superior performance of PA-S-mZVI bm (4:1). This study confirmed that PA modification could effectively mitigate the passivation and improve the Fe(0) utilization efficiency of S-mZVI bm .

Structural modification is expected to be a facile way to enhance the adsorption performance of MXene. In this work, the structural modification of Ti3C2Tx was carried out by a spray freezing method, and two kinds of nano-structure (spherical and flaky) of Ti3C2Tx were prepared by adjusting the solution concentration of Ti3C2Tx. Then the Cr(VI) adsorption capacity and removal efficiency of the spherical and flaky Ti3C2Tx was investigated, respectively. It is found that flaky Ti3C2Tx was produced with a Ti3C2Tx concentration of 3 mg mL−1, while spherical Ti3C2Tx was obtained with a concentration of 6 mg mL−1. The long diameter of flaky Ti3C2Tx is about 8–10 μm, and the specific surface area is 17.81 m2 g−1. While spherical Ti3C2Tx had a diameter of about 1–4 μm and a specific surface area of 17.07 m2 g−1. The optimized structure of flaky and spherical Ti3C2Tx improves the maximum adsorption capacity by 97% and 33%, respectively, compared with the few-layer Ti3C2Tx. The maximum adsorption capacity of flaky Ti3C2Tx was 928 mg g−1, while that of spherical Ti3C2Tx was 626 mg g−1. The adsorption capacity of both Ti3C2Tx structures decreased with the increase of pH, and reached the maximum value at pH = 2; meanwhile, the adsorption capacity of both Ti3C2Tx structures increased with the increase of Cr(VI) concentration. The adsorption of Cr(VI) on flaky Ti3C2Tx was very fast, reaching equilibrium in 3 min, while spherical Ti3C2Tx took 5 min. The adsorption of Cr(VI) on both Ti3C2Tx structures belonged to the monolayers, heat-absorbing chemical adsorption, and the diffusion process of Cr(VI) was regulated by the external diffusion and internal diffusion of particles. Its adsorption mechanism was the combination of reductive adsorption and electrostatic adsorption.

The worldwide use of chromium(III) picolinate Cr(pic) 3 as nutrition additives has aroused more and more controversies. To reevaluate the safety and validity of Cr(pic) 3 , seven new derivatives Cr(R-pic) 3 (pic = picolinic acid, R = H ( 1 ), 5-Br ( 2 ), 5-CF 3 ( 3 ), 4-Cl ( 4 ), 5-COOH ( 5 ), 3-CH 3 ( 6 ), 5-OH ( 7 ), 3-OH ( 8 )) were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystal diffraction, ESI-MS, IR and elemental analysis. It was found that different substituent group affected physicochemical activities of the complex such as the Fenton-like reaction and oxidation reaction. Especially, –OH group derivatives lose their hydroxyl radical-generation and Cr(VI)-generation abilities comparing with halogen group in tube experiment. Even so, these differences in chemistry properties may be ignored in live cells and animal tests: no obvious cellular damage (MTT assay) and tissue injury (acute toxicity study) were observed for both Cr(pic) 3 and its derivatives. In addition, hypoglycemic activity study indicated that these Cr(III) complexes have no significant influence than CrCl 3 salt on the blood glucose, serum insulin, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein of diabetic mice through two months’ study. Therefore, these substituent group is unable to improve the biological activities of Cr(pic) 3 obviously and the validity of Cr(pic) 3 used as a nutrition additives is doubted.

MIL-101(Cr) is an ideal material for wastewater treatment due to its large specific surface area, excellent water stability, and chemical stability. However, its limited light absorption capacity hinders its application. We loaded ferrocene carboxylic acid (Fc-COOH) onto MIL-101(Cr) by a post-synthetic modification method, which resulted in the MOF possessing excellent optical properties while maintaining its original skeleton structure. The MIL-101(Cr)/Fc-COOH (1:2), (abbreviated as CFCC-2) exhibited the best performance, achieving a removal rate of 96% for tetracycline (TC) in just 30 min. This removal rate is significantly higher compared to MIL-101(Cr) and Fc-COOH, which achieved removal rates of only 15% and 21%, respectively. We propose a possible Z-type heterojunction mechanism between MIL-101(Cr) and Fc-COOH to explain the excellent photocatalytic performance of CFCC-2. The intermediates in TC were identified using LC-MS, and the toxicity of these intermediates was predicted and evaluated through the Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (T.E.S.T.). This study provides new insights into the design and fabrication of MIL-101(Cr)-based catalysts as photodegrading organic pollutants.

Here, micron-sized high-entropy alloy (HEA) electrocatalysts (FeCoNiMoCr, Cr-HEA; FeCoNiMoCu, Cu-HEA) with dual-phase heterostructures were fabricated by mechanical alloying and subsequently loaded onto nickel foam (NF) to form the working electrode, exhibiting excellent oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance. Specifically, the Cr-HEA/NF exhibits an overpotential of 271 mV at current density of 10 mA/cm 2 and a small Tafel slope of 69.1 mV/dec in 1 mol/L KOH solution, outperforming the performance of Cu-HEA/NF, commercial RuO 2 /NF and bare NF. HEA catalysts achieve outstanding long-term stability, as evidenced by chronopotentiometry (1 mol/L KOH for 48 h @10 mA/cm 2 and 6 mol/L KOH at 85 °C for 100 h @500 mA/cm 2 ) and chronoamperometry (1 mol/L KOH for 100 h @100 mA/cm 2 ). The impressive OER activity and stability of Cr-HEA can be attributed to the highly heterogeneous nested interfaces between amorphous and metastable nanocrystals, as well as the in-situ formation of multiphase structures. Notably, both density functional theory calculations and experimental results demonstrate that the synergistic interactions among the metal active sites in HEA collectively regulate the adsorption and desorption of oxygen-containing intermediates, thereby enhancing the OER catalytic activity. Specifically, the Cr-HEA presents a lower Gibbs free energy change during the transformation from O* to OOH*, resulting in a reduced overpotential.

Metal doping for improving the reactivity of zerovalent iron (ZVI) has been well studied, while Mn(II)-modified microscale ZVI (Mn-mZVI) has not yet been explored. Herein, ball-milled Mn-mZVI was fabricated and used for Cr(VI) removal. Characterization analysis showed that the structure, composition, and charge of mZVI changed after the Mn(II) modification. The comparative test showed that Mn-mZVI could remove 100% of Cr(VI) within 10 min, whereas mZVI removed negligible Cr(VI) within 60 min. The zeta-potential and electrochemical evidence verified that the enhanced electrostatic attraction and electron-transfer ability contributed to the superior Cr(VI) removal performance of Mn-mZVI. Moreover, the solution pH increase caused the decline of Cr(VI) removal, and the presence of NO3– inhibited Cr(VI) removal, whereas other coexisting ions showed little influence on the Cr(VI) removal performance of Mn-mZVI. Chemical and material characterization analyses revealed that Cr(VI) reduction by Mn-mZVI was the combined action of Fe(0) and generated Fe(II). In addition, the reusability of Mn-mZVI was not ideal due to the surface passivation and loss of Mn(II), but the reactivity could be reactivated by ball-milling the reacted Mn-mZVI again with Mn(II). Overall, this work provides a new mentality for mZVI modification and is important to develop promising mZVI-based materials for Cr(VI) pollution control.

The hydrogenation of CO2to methanol over Cu-based catalysts is one of the attractive routes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and generate high-value-added chemicals. Industrial CuZnAl catalysts possess some shortcomings, but various promoters can enhance the activity and durability of Cu-based catalysts for CO2hydrogenation. Herein, we systematically investigated the variations in the physicochemical properties of ternary CuZnM (M: Cr, Ce, Zr, Al) catalysts induced by different promoters, as well as their impact on CO2hydrogenation to methanol. The results demonstrate that the catalytic activity followed the order of CZCr > CZCe > CZZr > CZAl, with CZCr exhibiting the highest stability among them. Combined with XRD, SEM, TEM, H2-TPR, TPD, XPS, Raman findings and the experimental results, the smaller Cu particle size was conducive to increasing the CH3OH yield, and the lower Cu+/Cu0ratio exhibited better stability in CO2hydrogenation to methanol reaction. This approach offers theoretical insights and practical solutions for the industrial application of ternary Cu-based catalysts.

Stimuli-sensitive nanocomposites have received special attention because of their potential applications in various fields. In this work, we report a novel thermo-responsive photoluminescent silver clusters/hydrogel nanocomposite with red emission, as a probe for highly sensitive and selective detection of Cr(VI) in aqueous solutions. The hydrogel nanocomposites integrate the advantages of p(NIPAM-co-AAc) hydrogel submicron particles and Ag clusters: the p(NIPAM-co-AAc) hydrogel submicron particles can act as templates for Ag nanoclusters and exhibit thermo-responsive properties. In addition, Ag nanoclusters endow excellent photoluminescent properties to our nanocomposites, resulting in photoluminescent sensors. As a result, we obtained novel thermo-responsive Ag clusters/p(NIPAM-co-AAc) hydrogel nanocomposites through photoreduction process. The photoluminescence (PL) intensity of as-prepared nanocomposites exhibited a linear and reversible response from 2 to 85 °C and displayed a high PL quenching for the sensitive and selective detection of Cr(VI), rather than Cr(III). The limit of detection could reach as low as 1 ppb, which indicates that it is an ideal sensor tool for environmental monitoring, laboratory detections and various other applications.

Chromium, as a widely utilized transition metal, presents wastewater with high toxicity and challenging treatment. To date, there has been limited exploration regarding the application of chromium in homogeneous Fenton-like reactions. This study aims to explore the potential of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) to activate hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and permonosulfate (PMS) for degrading coexisting pollutants in homogeneous solutions. The Cr(VI)/PMS system was found to be the most effective, with a 95.58 % removal efficiency for the azo dye Acid Red 73 (AR73). The Cr(VI)/H 2 O 2 system followed with 72.35 %, while the Cr(III)/H 2 O 2 and Cr(III)/PMS systems showed lower efficiencies at 25.65 % and 16.95 %, respectively. Various techniques were employed to delve into the mechanisms underlying chromium activation. The results indicate that both Cr(VI) and Cr(III) can activate H 2 O 2 to generate hydroxyl radical (HO • ). Moreover, Cr(VI) can activate PMS in the pH range of 3 ∼ 11, producing HO • , sulfate radical (SO 4 •- ), and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ), while Cr(III) engages in chelation with PMS, causing the reaction to cease. Additionally, this study reveals that the chelating agent EDTA, upon complexing with Cr(III), efficiently activates PMS to generate 1 O 2 , and the mechanism behind EDTA-Cr(III) activation of PMS was elucidated through DFT calculations. An integrated evaluation of Cr performance in the Fenton-like reaction provides new research directions for the removal of pollutants from chromium-containing wastewater.
