[PMID: 39064866 PMCID: PMC11279756 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29143287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
A simple, rapid, and reliable method for detecting harmful gases is urgently required in environmental security fields. In this study, a highly effective cataluminescence sensor based on SiO2/MIL-53(Al) composites was developed to detect trace isobutylaldehyde. The sensor was designed using isobutylaldehyde to generate an interesting cataluminescence phenomenon in SiO2/MIL-53(Al). Under optimized conditions, a positive linear relationship was observed between the signal intensity of the cataluminescence and isobutylaldehyde concentration. The isobutylaldehyde concentration range of 1.55-310 ppm responded well to the sensing test, with an excellent correlation coefficient of 0.9996. The minimum detectable concentration signal-to-noise ratio (S/N = 3) was found to be 0.49 ppm. In addition, the sensor was effectively utilized for analyzing trace isobutylaldehyde; the analysis resulted in recoveries ranging from 83.4% to 105%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 4.8% to 9.4%. Furthermore, the mechanism of cataluminescence between SiO2/MIL-53(Al) and isobutylaldehyde was explored using GC-MS analysis and density functional theory. We expect that this cataluminescence methodology will provide an approach for the environmental monitoring of isobutylaldehyde.

Abstract
Despite the widespread utilization of variable valence metals in electrochemistry, it is still a formidable challenge to enhance the valence conversion efficiency to achieve excellent catalytic activity without introducing heterophase elements. Herein, the in-situ precipitation of Co particles on Co2VO4 not only enhanced the concentration of oxygen vacancies (Ov) but also generated a greater number of low-valence metals, thereby enabling efficient reduction towards Hg(II). The electroanalysis results demonstrate that the sensitivity of Co/Co2VO4 towards Hg(II) was measured at an impressive value of 1987.74 μA μM-1 cm-2, significantly surpassing previously reported results. Further research reveals that Ov acted as the main adsorption site to capture Hg(II). The redox reactions of Co2+/Co3+ and V3+/V4+ played a synergistic role in the reduction of Hg(II), accompanied by the continuous supply of electrons from zero-valent Co to expedite the valence cycle. The Co/Co2VO4/GCE presented remarkable selectivity towards Hg(II), with excellent stability, reproducibility, and anti-interference capability. The electrode also exhibited minimal sensitivity fluctuations towards Hg(II) in real water samples, underscoring its practicality for environmental applications. This study elucidates the mechanism underlying the surface redox reaction of metal oxides facilitated by zero-valent metals, providing us with new strategies for further design of efficient and practical sensors.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) structures have gained significant attention for their exceptional catalytic performance in ozone degradation, even under high humidity conditions, which is attributed to the presence of unsaturated metal sites (MOF defects). However, the correlation between MOF defects and catalytic ozone remains ambiguous, and a general approach for the controllable synthesis of high-performance MOF structures is currently lacking. Herein, different defective UiO-66 materials with cluster or ligand defects were obtained by precisely controlling small molecular acid modulators. Their catalytic performance can be analyzed in real time through the specific cataluminescence (CTL) signal of ozone at the interface. The presence of ligand defects was found to be crucial for both catalytic degradation and luminescence of ozone, and the CTL signal exhibited a positive correlation with the endogenous hydroxyl group content in the material (R2 = 0.982), while external humidity further supplemented internal water molecules within the material. Furthermore, theoretical calculations were conducted to compare the adsorption behaviors of ozone on the defective UiO-66 under dry/wet conditions, leading to the proposal of two potential reaction pathways. Subsequently, UiO-66-DA with superior catalytic performance was employed to develop a highly efficient CTL sensor capable of accurately detecting ozone (LOD = 23.3 ppb). This study held significant value in elucidating the reaction site of ozone on MOFs and achieving optimal catalytic effects through the careful selection of modulators and humidity levels.

[PMID: 37894623 PMCID: PMC10609542 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28207143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In the present work, three kinds of nanosized SnO2 samples were successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal method with subsequent calcination at temperatures of 500 °C, 600 °C, and 700 °C. The morphology and structure of the as-prepared samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results clearly indicated that the SnO2 sample calcined at 600 °C had a higher amount of chemisorbed oxygen than the SnO2 samples calcined at 500 °C and 700 °C. Gas sensing investigations revealed that the cataluminescence (CTL) sensors based on the three SnO2 samples all exhibited high selectivity toward H2S, but the sensor based on SnO2-600 °C exhibited the highest response under the same conditions. At an operating temperature of 210 °C, the SnO2-600 °C sensor showed a good linear response to H2S in the concentration range of 20-420 ppm, with a detection limit of 8 ppm. The response and recovery times were 3.5 s/1.5 s for H2S gas within the linear range. The study on the sensing mechanism indicated that H2S was oxidized into excited states of SO2 by chemisorbed oxygen on the SnO2 surface, which was mainly responsible for CTL emission. The chemisorbed oxygen played an important role in the oxidation of H2S, and, as such, the reason for the SnO2-600 °C sensor showing the highest response could be ascribed to the highest amount of chemisorbed oxygen on its surface. The proposed SnO2-based gas sensor has great potential for the rapid monitoring of H2S.

Abstract
Metal-doped porous carbon matrix composites are considered as outstanding H2 S cataluminescence sensing materials for their good sulfur tolerance and high cataluminescence activity. In this work, Fe-doped MOF-derived N-rich porous carbon nanoframe was successfully fabricated by pyrolysis of Fe-doped ZIF-8 in an Ar atmosphere at a temperature of 900 °C, and used for H2 S cataluminescence sensing. Along with zinc volatilization, the obtained porous carbon nanoframe not only had high specific surface area and abundant voids, but also had well dispersed Fe species doped in the skeleton. Compared with Fe2 O3 /ZnO composites derived from the same precursor but different pyrolysis terms, this as-prepared Fe-doped N-rich porous carbon presented three times increase of cataluminescence intensity towards H2 S, attributing to the porous carbon skeleton which is indispensable for dispersing catalytic active sites and providing more absorptive surface and voids. Comparably, this proposed sensor demonstrated high sensitivity and good selectivity, with the detection range of 1.57-19.58 μg·mL-1 and detection limit as 0.13 μg·mL-1 towards H2 S. This work may provide a new pathway for preparing catalysts for cataluminescence sensing with better metal distribution, higher specific surface area, richer pores than ever before.
