Four coumarin-based molecular probes were synthesized via the reaction of phenylhydrazine and coumarin derivatives. Their binding properties toward various anions (F-, Cl-, Br-, I-, SO32-, H2PO4-, CH3COO-, HS-) and cations (Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Al3+, K+, Mn2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Cd2+) were systematically investigated using UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The results demonstrated that the probes exhibited high selectivity, sensitivity and specificity for Cu2+, Co2+, Fe3+ with distinct colorimetric changes upon host-guest interaction, enabling visual detection. These findings establish a promising approach for trace ion sensing. Theoretical studies revealed that the observed red shifts in the UV-Vis spectra originated from electron transitions involving the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO). Furthermore, cytotoxicity assays confirmed the probes' biocompatibility, suggesting their potential for intracellular ion detection in living cells.
The experimental results showed that the limiting oxygen index (LOI) value of the THPON3-THPC-treated cotton fabric increased significantly (by up to 32.5%), and the length of damage in the vertical burning test was reduced to 8.1 cm with no afterflame. Cone calorimeter tests revealed a significant reduction in combustion efficiency, with the peak heat release rate (PHRR) decreasing from 283.1 to 112.9 kW/m2 and the total heat release (THR) decreasing from 21.8 to 4.6 MJ/m2. Compared to the traditional Proban ammonia curing process, THPON3-THPC demonstrated greater flame-retardant effectiveness. This treatment improved both the comfort and environmental sustainability of the flame-retardant cotton fabric. Furthermore, experimental results showed that THPON3 achieved formaldehyde removal rates of 92.5% (E2 grade) and 68.3% (NAF grade) from plywood, outperforming urea and demonstrating significant formaldehyde removal capabilities. As an efficient formaldehyde scavenger, THPON3 significantly inhibited and delayed the release of formaldehyde from plywood. Additionally, cytotoxicity tests showed that THPON3 exhibited no significant toxicity to Hacat and BEAS-2B cells at a concentration of 800 mu M, indicating a very low risk to human health in the event of accidental ingestion or inhalation. These findings are important for the application of THPON3 in flame-retardant and residential building materials.
Herein for the first time, we disclose a practical and straightforward approach to access α-SF5 ketones via direct oxypentafluorosulfanylation of alkynes with SF5Cl and oxygen under acidic conditions by one step. The protocol features mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility and can be applied to late-state functionalization of complex natural products and pharmaceuticals. A radical mechanism involving SF5 radical addition to triple bonds followed by O2 capture is proposed.
The electrophilic trifluoromethylselenolation cyclizations of propargylic amides are disclosed. The transformations undergo the 6-endo-dig and 5-exo-dig cyclizations to synthesize SeCF3-substituted oxazines and oxazolines, respectively, which are induced by N-trifluoromethylselenophthalimide. This protocol is suitable for late-stage applications of complex natural products and drug molecules.
An expedient strategy for the construction of trifluoromethylselenolated spiro[5.5]trienones/spiro[4.5]trienones through a cascade electrophilic trifluoromethylselenolation cyclization and dearomatization has been developed. This sequential process was induced by N-trifluoromethylselenophthalimide (Phth-SeCF3), which was an efficient electrophilic trifluoromethylselenolation reagent. This approach has the feature of mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and high functional group tolerance.
It is key to develop novel economical and effective non-noble metal bifunctional catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting cells. Herein, a series of novel twodimensional (2D) ultrathin donor-acceptor Co-based metal organic framework nanoplates (U-DA-CoMOF-NPs) as bifunctional HER/OER catalysts have been designed and fabricated based on a donor-acceptor strategy. Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the fabricated U-DA-CoMOF-NPs are fine donor-acceptor pairs having HOMO-LUMO localizations and a HOMO-LUMO gap of 2.60 eV and give the Gibbs free energy for a reasonable OER mechanism. Additionally, changes in anions can affect the physicochemical characterizations and HER/OER performance of the fabricated U-DA-CoMOF-NPs. As a result, the fabricated U-DA-CoMOF-NPs-1 using NO3- as an anion exhibits the optimal HER/OER performance in alkaline solution thanks to the thinnest nanoplate thickness, the largest surface area and hierarchical mesoporous structure. Moreover, a self-assembled overall water splitting cell with U-DA-CoMOF-NPs-1/NF as both cathode and anode achieves a low potential of 1.65 V and a high cycling stability at 10 mA cm-2 for at least 15 h. The present study offers an option to design and fabricate other cost-effective donor-acceptor MOF-based catalysts for water splitting cells.
Porous organic polymers (POPs) are promising candidates for catalyzing the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) owing to their tunable porous structures and abundant chemical reaction channels/active centers. However, insufficient conductivities limit their practical applications in the HER/ORR. The challenge is to construct conductive POPs with highly efficient HER/ORR performance. Herein, a series of metal-free corrole-based donor-acceptor POPs (Cor-D-A-POPs) as bifunctional HER/ORR catalysts have been designed and constructed from 5,10,15-tris(p-aminophenyl)corrole (TPAPC) and 2,2 '-bithiophene-5,5 '-dialdehyde (BTDA) or 2,5-thiophenedialdehyde (TDA) with a donor-acceptor method. Compared with Cor-D-A-POPs using TDA as an electron donor (Cor-TDA-D-A-POPs), Cor-D-A-POPs using BTDA as an electron donor (Cor-BTDA-D-A-POPs) exhibit higher HER/ORR activities due to their more favorable charge transfer ability from the BTDA donor to the TPAPC acceptor. The integration of high surface area, rich accessible catalytic sites, and high conductivity makes Cor-BTDA-D-A-POP-1 constructed in a mixed solvent of n-butanol/mesitylene (1 : 1) exhibit optimal HER/ORR activities in alkaline solution, with a comparable HER overpotential of 0.10 V at 10 mA cm-2 and an ORR Tafel slope of 90.0 mV dec-1 to Pt/C (0.09 V and 88.0 mV dec-1). Moreover, its HER/ORR stability is superior to that of Pt/C. The experimental results are consistent with density functional theory calculations. Therefore, the combination of suitable electron donors and electron acceptors can promote charge transfer within POPs and generate high activities for the HER/ORR. Metal-free corrole-based donor-acceptor porous organic polymers (Cor-D-A-POPs) are constructed and are active for the HER/ORR. By tuning the electron donor and mixed solvent, Cor-BTDA-D-A-POP-1 shows the best activity among all constructed catalysts.
The exploration of economical and effective non-noble metal catalysts is essential for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in energy devices. Recently, heteroatom-doped metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown great potential in ORR due to their high efficiencies and low costs. Herein, three-dimensional (3D) urchin-like N/S co-doped Mn-based MOFs (U–N/S–Mn-MOFs) as an effective ORR catalyst have been successfully prepared by a facile one-step solvothermal methodology. The unique 3D urchin-like structure with a spherical interior and dendritic exterior may provide more catalytic sites and transport channels for ORR. Simultaneously, the doped N and S combined with Mn can promote oxygen adsorption and reduce the reaction energy barrier. These characteristics endow U–N/S–Mn-MOFs with high ORR performance. The present work provides a new opportunity for multiple heteroatom-doped MOFs to achieve high electrocatalytic performance.
Abnormal copper ions (Cu2+) and biothiols have potential impacts on environmental pollution and human health, so the detection of these substances with high selectivity and sensitivity has become an important research topic. In this study, we designed and synthesized two fluorescent probes (L1 and L2) based on naphthalene and anthracene derivatives that could specifically detect Cu2+ and biothiols. Owing to the paramagnetic effect of Cu2+, the strong fluorescent intensity was quenched after the addition of Cu2+. When biothiols were added to the solution (L-Cu2+), the fluorescence intensity was significantly enhanced and recovered. So, the interaction process was accompanied with "ON-OFF-ON" phenomenon in fluorescent intensity. Two complexes (L-Cu2+) showed low limit of detection for biothiols (Cys was 3.4 ×10-5 M and GSH was 2.0 ×10-5 M) and weak cytotoxicity (< 150 μg/mL). Theoretical investigation analysis revealed that the intramolecular hydrogen bond existed in the structure of probes and the roles of molecular frontier orbitals in molecular interplay. In addition, two probes also showed good applicability in actual drug Atomolan. The GSH content in the tested Atomolan reached over 99.9% of the labeling which was accord with the percentage of pharmacopoeia. Therefore, two probes have the real application value in the detection of Cu2+, biothiols and drug efficacy in various environments.
A new electrophilic trifluoromethylselenolation reagent, N-trifluoromethylselenophthalimide (Phth-SeCF3), was developed. A strategy for the synthesis of 4-trifluoromethylselenolated isoxazoles through electrophilic trifluoromethylselenolation cyclization has been established by using Phth-SeCF3 as an electrophilic reagent. Moreover, this protocol has the features of broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and high yields.
In order to better monitor the content of Fe 3+ and H 2 S in the biological environment, two new fluorescent probes were designed and synthesized. With the addition of Fe 3+ , the strong fluorescence emission of two probes was significantly quenched due to the paramagnetic effect of Fe 3+ . With the further addition of S 2− , the fluorescence intensity was quickly restored. Two probes showed high selectivity and strong sensitivity for the detection of Fe 3+ and S 2− , and the fluorescence intensity “ON-OFF-ON” was accompanied with the interaction process. At the same time, two probes displayed good anti-interference ability which was not interfered by the existence of other ions. In addition, two probes illustrated fast response time to Fe 3+ , S 2− and small cytotoxicity to cells. Therefore, two probes can provide a potential ideal tool for detecting Fe 3+ and H 2 S in organisms and the environment.
A novel free-halogen flame retardant (trimethylolphosphine carbamate, THPON) was synthesized through the simple reaction between tetrakis(hydroxymethyl) phosphonium chloride and urea. Small molecule THPON could infiltrated the cotton fibers and grafted on cotton cellulose by amide bond. What is more, THPON did not change the inherent crystal structure of cotton because it infiltrated into the amorphous region of cotton. THPON-treated cotton was easily decomposed into phosphoric acid or polyphosphate at lower temperature and exhibited good flame retardancy due to the N/P synergistic effect. Compared to control, the heat release rate of THPON-treated cotton increased slower, indicating that a protective carbon layer formed and acted as a barrier. In addition, THPON displayed the low cytotoxicity and biosafety. The development and properties of THPON could provide an important data for the further application in the industry.
Two colorimetric and fluorescent probes based on ferrocene derivatives have been designed and synthesized. Among studied anions (F-, AcO-, H2PO4-, Cl-, Br- and I-), probe 1 with p-nitrophenyl hydrazine structure has the strongest binding ability for F-, as well as probe 2 for H2PO4-. It had strong binding ability and was not affected by other anions. The determination limit of 1 toward F- was 5.0x10(-6) mol.L-1 which can be used for the trace detection of F-. The interacted process of host-guest accompanied by colorimetric changes and increment in fluorescent intensity of the probes. A H-1-NMR titration experiment and theoretical investigation indicated that -NH in hydrazine participated in the interaction, and the hydrogen-bonding formed between the probes and anions. These results provided an essential clue to the developing the colorimetric probe based on hydrazine participation.
Design and development of cost-efficient multifunctional three-dimensional (3D) metal organic frameworks (MOFs) towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are very significant for green energy devices. Herein, a scalable one-pot solvothermal method is developed to obtain a series of multifunctional 3D flower-like MOFs. In addition, systematic studies are also conducted on the effects of various metal cations and N-containing ligands on the structures, compositions, and multifunctional performance of the obtained MOFs. As a result, 3D flower-like Co-MOFs using Co2+ as a metal cation and 2,2’:6′,2″-terpyridine as a N-containing ligand exhibit the highest multifunctional performance towards ORR, OER and HER. The scalable method provides a new prospect to design and develop other MOFs-based multifunctional catalysts.
