Ahmad I, Alothaid H, Habibullah MM, Wani TH, Ikram S. Deciphering the catalytic activity of nickel anchored on Fe 3O 4@SiO 2@3-CPMS@L as a magnetically recoverable nanocatalyst for the efficacious reduction of 4-nitrophenol, nitrobenzene, and methyl orange. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 367:121795. [PMID: 39106794 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 06/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/09/2024]
Abstract
In this paper, a versatile heterogeneous nanocatalyst was fabricated employing a self-assembly technique. To commence, Fe3O4 MNPs were coated with a thin layer of SiO2 using the stobbers method. Subsequently, the surface was further functionalized with 3-CPMS, followed by a reaction with a Schiff base. Finally, nickel NPs were deposited on the surface through in situ deposition, forming the Fe3O4@SiO2@3-CPMS@L-Ni magnetic nanocatalyst. The architecture of this magnetic nanocatalyst was meticulously characterized through an array of sophisticated techniques: XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, BET and VSM. The XRD diffraction pattern confirmed the presence of Fe3O4 MNPs, SiO2, and Ni peaks, providing evidence for successful synthesis. Moreover, the successful functionalization with a Schiff base was demonstrated by the presence of an azomethane peak in the FTIR spectra of the synthesized nanocatalyst. The fabricated nanocatalyst was adeptly utilized for the reduction of 4-NP, NB, and MO demonstrating a remarkably elevated rate of catalytic efficacy. Moreover, this catalyst was effortlessly retrievable through the application of an external magnet, and it maintained its catalytic prowess across at least six consecutive cycles. The utilization of water as an environmentally friendly solvent, coupled with the utilization of abundant and cost-effective nickel catalyst instead of the costly Pd or Pt catalysts, along with the successful recovery and scalability of the catalyst, render this method highly advantageous from both environmental and economic perspectives for the reduction of 4-NP, NB, and MO.

Abstract
Both g-C3N4 and Bi2O2CO3 are good photocatalysts for the removal of antibiotic pollutants, but their morphological modulation and catalytic performance need to be further improved. In this study, the calcination-hydrothermal method is used to prepare a O-g-C3N4@Bi2O2CO3 (CN@BCO) composite photocatalyst from dicyandiamide and bismuth nitrate. The prepared catalyst is characterized through various methods, including X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Further, the effects of different parameters, such as catalyst concentration and initial pH of the reaction solution, on its photocatalytic activity are investigated. The results show that the CN@BCO sample achieves an optimal degradation rate of 98.1% for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) with a concentration of 20 mg/L and a removal rate of 69.4% for total organic carbon (TOC) at 40 min. The quenching experiments show that ·O2-, h+, and ·OH participate in the photocatalytic process, with ·O2- being the most dominant active species. The toxicity of the predicted TCH degradation intermediates is analyzed using Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (TEST). Overall, the CN@BCO composite exhibits excellent photocatalytic performance, making it a promising candidate for environmental purification and wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Herein, core-shell magnetic nanoparticles are modified with imidazolium-tagged phosphine and propylene glycol moieties and used for the stabilization of bimetallic AuCu nanoparticles. The structure and morphology of the prepared material are identified with SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS, atomic absorption spectroscopy, Fourier translation infrared spectroscopy, and a vibrating sample magnetometer. This hydrophilic magnetic bimetallic catalyst is applied in the reduction of toxic nitroarenes and reductive degradation of hazardous organic dyes such as methyl orange (MO), methyl red (MR), and rhodamine B (RhB), as well as in the degradation of tetracycline (TC). This magnetic AuCu catalyst indicated superior activity in all three mentioned reactions in comparison with its single metal Au and Cu analogs. This catalyst is recycled for 17 consecutive runs in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol without a significant decrease in catalytic activity and recycled catalyst is characterized.

Abstract
Pyrethroids are ubiquitously present in environmental media and threaten both the ecosystem and human health. To explore effective ways to remove pyrethroids from the environment, an odorant binding protein (OBP) with affinity for various pyrethroids was investigated. Initially, the target OBP, Spodoptera littoralis pheromone binding protein 1 (SlitPBP1), underwent redesign to enhance its affinity for pyrethroids. The modified SlitPBP1E97ND106E demonstrated a substantially increased affinity for deltamethrin (DeltaM), with a dissociation constant of 0.77 ± 0.17 μM. The affinity of SlitPBP1E97ND106E for other pyrethroids also increased to varying extents. Consequently, SlitPBP1E97ND106E displayed a markedly enhanced capability to adsorb and remove pyrethroids. When exposed to free SlitPBP1E97ND106E in solution, the reduction in DeltaM surged from 16.78 ± 0.32% to 97.51 ± 0.56%. SlitPBP1E97ND106E was immobilized by coupling the protein to Ni2+-NTA agarose resin. Liquid chromatography results attested to the superior efficacy of immobilized SlitPBP1E97ND106E in removing pyrethroids, especially DeltaM. No significant differences in pyrethroid removal were detected across various water samples. Our findings introduce a potent tool for pyrethroid removal. A wider range of OBPs can similarly be optimized and applied to remove organic pollutants, including but not limited to pesticides.

Abstract
The preparation of powder adsorbent into microsphere adsorbent is one of the effective methods for the industrialization of uranium extraction from seawater. Herein, a MOF-derived Co-Ni layered double hydroxides/polyethyleneimine modified chitosan micro-nanoreactor (DNPM) was prepared by a simple method in this work. The microstructure and chemical structure of DNPM were comprehensively characterized. The pH value, adsorption time, initial solution concentration, temperature, competitive ions, regeneration performance, and bed column heights were investigated for the adsorption performance of DNPM by batch adsorption and fixed-bed column continuous adsorption experiments. When the contact time was 8 h, the initial concentration was 150 mg/L, and the pH value was 6, the adsorption capacity of DNPM was 334.67 mg/g. The uranium adsorption by DNPM fits with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir models, which was a spontaneous and endothermic process. In addition, DNPM has good adsorption selectivity and reusability. The fixed-bed column continuous adsorption experiment shows that the adsorption capacity increased with the increase of bed column height. The adsorption mechanism can be attributed to coordination chelation and electrostatic interaction. In general, this work provides an effective strategy for developing environmentally friendly uranium adsorbent that can be industrially used.

Abstract
Selective oxidation of active and inactive alcohol substrates and reduction of nitroarenes is a highly versatile conversion that remains a challenge in controlling functionality and adjustments in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). On the other hand, it offers an attractive opportunity to expand their applications in designing the next generation of catalysts with improved performance. Herein, a novel mixed MOF consisting of supported 2-hydroxybenzamide (mixed MOF-salinidol) has been fabricated by post-synthetic modifications of mixed MOF. Subsequently, the prepared nanocomposites were modified to impart catalytic sites using palladium chloride ions mixed with MOF-salinidol/Pd (II). After successfully designing and structurally characterizing nanocomposites, we evaluated their activity in oxidizing primary and secondary alcohols using aerobic conditions with molecular oxygen and an air atmosphere. In addition, the stability of (mixed MOF-salinidol/Pd (II)) catalysts under catalytic conditions was also demonstrated by comparing the Fourier-transform infrared spectrum, scanning electron microscopy image, and ICP-OES method before and after catalysis. Based on the results, the active surface area of the synthesized nanocatalyst is large, which highlights its unique synergistic effect between post-synthetic modified MOF and Pd, and furthermore, the availability of catalytic sites from Pd, as demonstrated by outstanding catalytic activity.

Abstract
In the current study, we introduce a hybrid magnetic nanocomposite comprised of curcumin (Cur), iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPs), melamine linker (Mel), and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). Initially, a facile in situ route is administrated for preparing the Fe3O4@Cur/Mel-Ag effectual magnetic catalytic system. In addition, the advanced catalytic performance of the nanocomposite to reduce the nitrobenzene (NB) derivatives as hazardous chemical substances were assessed. Nevertheless, a high reaction yield of 98% has been achieved in short reaction times 10 min. Moreover, the Fe3O4@Cur/Mel-Ag magnetic nanocomposite was conveniently collected by an external magnet and recycled 5 times without a noticeable diminish in catalytic performance. Therefore, the prepared magnetic nanocomposite is a privileged substance for NB derivatives reduction since it achieved notable catalytic activity.

Abstract
Asymmetric wound dressings have captured researchers' attention due to their ability to reproduce the structural and functional properties of the skin layers. Furthermore, recent studies also report the benefits of using near-infrared (NIR) radiation-activated photothermal therapies in treating infections and chronic wounds. Herein, a chitosan (CS) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) hydrogel (CS_rGO) was combined with a polycaprolactone (PCL) and cellulose acetate (CA) electrospun membrane (PCL_CA) to create a new NIR-responsive asymmetric wound dressing. The rGO incorporation in the hydrogel increased the NIR absorption capacity and allowed a mild hyperthermy effect, a temperature increase of 12.4 °C when irradiated with a NIR laser. Moreover, the PCL_CA membrane presented a low porosity and hydrophobic nature, whereas the CS_rGO hydrogel showed the ability to provide a moist environment, prevent exudate accumulation and allow gaseous exchanges. Furthermore, the in vitro data demonstrate the capacity of the asymmetric structure to act as a barrier against bacteria penetration as well as mediating a NIR-triggered antibacterial effect. Additionally, human fibroblasts were able to adhere and proliferate in the CS_rGO hydrogel, even under NIR laser irradiation, presenting cellular viabilities superior to 90 %. Altogether, our data support the application of the NIR-responsive asymmetric wound dressings for skin regeneration.

Abstract
A novel nanocomposite has been designed and fabricated through an in situ polymerization process, based on iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs), halloysite nanotubes (HNTs), and polystyrene (PS). The prepared nanocomposite (formulated as Fe3O4/HNT-PS) has been fully characterized through various methods, and its applicability in microwave absorption was investigated by using some single-layer and bilayer pellets containing nanocomposite and resin. The efficiency of the Fe3O4/HNT-PS composite with different weight ratios and pellets with the thickness of 3.0 and 4.0 mm were examined. Vector network analysis (VNA) revealed that the microwave (12 GHz) can be noticeably absorbed by Fe3O4/HNT-60% PS particles in a bilayer structure with 4.0 mm thickness and 85% resin of the pellets, resulting in a microwave absorption value of ca. -26.9 dB. The observed bandwidth (RL < -10 dB) was about 1.27 GHz, where ca. 95% of the radiated wave is absorbed. Ultimately, due to low-cost raw materials and high performance of the presented absorbent system, the Fe3O4/HNT-PS nanocomposite and the construction of the presented bilayer system can be subjected to further investigations to test and compare with other compounds for industrialization.

Abstract
Although metallic nanocatalysts such as palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) are known to possess higher catalytic activity due to their large surface-to-volume ratio, however, in nanosize greatly reducing their activity due to aggregation. To overcome this challenge, superparamagnetic chitosan-coated manganese ferrite was successfully prepared and used as a support for the immobilization of palladium nanoparticles to overcome the above-mentioned challenge. The Pd-Chit@MnFe2O4 catalyst exhibited high catalytic activity in 4-nitrophenol and 4-nitroaniline reductions, with respective turnover frequencies of 357.1 min-1 and 571.4 min-1, respectively. The catalyst can also be recovered easily by magnetic separation after each reaction. Additionally, the Pd-Chit@MnFe2O4 catalyst performed well in the reductive deprotection of allyl carbamate. Coating the catalyst with chitosan reduced the Pd leaching and its cytotoxicity. Therefore, the catalytic activity of Pd-Chit@MnFe2O4 was proven to be unrestricted in biology conditions.

Abstract
In the field of targeted drug delivery, the effects of size and morphology of drug nanocarriers are of great importance and need to be discussed in depth. To be concise, among all the various shapes of nanocarriers, rods and tubes with a narrow cross-section are the most preferred shapes for the penetration of a cell membrane. In this regard, several studies have focused on methods to produce nanorods and nanotubes with controlled optimized size and aspect ratio (AR). Additionally, a non-spherical orientation could affect the cellular uptake process while a tangent angle of less than 45° is better at penetrating the membrane, and Ω = 90° is beneficial. Moreover, these nanocarriers show different behaviors when confronting diverse cells whose fields should be investigated in future studies. In this survey, a comprehensive classification based on carrier shape is first submitted. Then, the most commonly used methods for control over the size and shape of the carriers are reviewed. Finally, influential factors on the cellular uptake and internalization processes and related analytical methods for evaluating this process are discussed.

Abstract
This study presents a novel photocatalytic system for photocatalytic degradation of Eriochrome black-T (EBT) dye via green light-emitting diode (LED) light exposure. This photocatalyst is comprised of nanoscale components, i.e., poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs), gold NPs (Au NPs), and zinc oxide nanorods (ZnO NRs), rendering an active high surface area. The most highlighted property from the structural facet is the superparamagnetic behavior of Fe3O4 NPs, which provides a facile collection of magnetic photocatalyst NPs from the reaction flask and is successfully recycled eight times without considerable reduction in catalytic behavior. Briefly, the photocatalytic degradation at its highest efficiency reached 51.4% (10 ppm dye solution, 5.0 mL) and 64.75% (8 ppm dye solution, 5.0 mL) utilizing 10 mg of the designed photocatalyst (formulated as Fe3O4@PVA-Au/ZnO), a magnetic photocatalytic system under green LED light (7 W, 526 nm) exposure for 60 min. Besides, the photocatalytic degradation mechanism of the EBT dye by the as-prepared photocatalyst was proposed. Based on the obtained results, the presented photocatalytic method was recommended for scaling up and large-scale exploitation for the purification of the water resources.

Abstract
In this study, a new heterogeneous magnetic catalytic system based on selenium-functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles is presented and suggested for facilitating amide/peptide bonds formation. The prepared nanocatalyst, entitled as "Fe3O4/SiO2-DSBA" (DSBA stands for 2,2'-diselanediylbis benzamide), has been precisely characterized for identifying its physicochemical properties. As the most brilliant point, the catalytic performance of the designed system can be mentioned, where only a small amount of Fe3O4/SiO2-DSBA (0.25 mol%) has resulted in 89% reaction yield, under a mild condition. Also, given high importance of green chemistry, convenient catalyst particles separation from the reaction medium through its paramagnetic property (ca. 30 emu·g-1) should be noticed. This particular property provided a substantial opportunity to recover the catalyst particles and successfully reuse them for at least three successive times. Moreover, due to showing other excellences, such as economic benefits and nontoxicity, the presented catalytic system is recommended to be scaled up and exploited in the industrial applications.

Abstract
This work reports a facile and green approach to preparing AgIO3 nanoparticles decorated with chitosan (chitosan-AgIO3). The bionanocomposite was fully characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The antibacterial effect of chitosan-AgIO3 bionanocomposite was investigated for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus as pathogen microorganisms via the plate count method, disk diffusion method, and optical density (OD) measurements. The antibacterial performance of the bionanocomposite was compared with two commercial drugs (penicillin and silver sulfadiazine) and in some cases, the synthesized bionanocomposite has a better effect in the eradication of bacteria. The bionanocomposite represented great antibacterial properties. Flow cytometry was performed to investigate the mechanism of bionanocomposite as an antibacterial agent. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production was responsible for the bactericidal mechanisms. These results demonstrate that the chitosan-AgIO3 bionanocomposite, as a kind of antibacterial material, got potential for application in a broad range of biomedical applications and water purification. The design and synthesis of green and biodegradable antibacterial materials with simple processes and by using readily available materials cause the final product to be economically affordable and could be scaled in different industries.

Abstract
Nanobioconjugates are nanoscale drug delivery vehicles that have been conjugated to or decorated with biologically active targeting ligands. These targeting ligands can be antibodies, peptides, aptamers, or small molecules such as vitamins or hormones. Most research studies in this field have been devoted to targeting cancer. Moreover, the nanostructures can be designed with an additional level of targeting by being designed to be stimulus-responsive or "smart" by a judicious choice of materials to be incorporated into the hybrid nanostructures. This stimulus could be an acidic pH, raised temperature, enzyme, ultrasound, redox potential, an externally applied magnetic field, or laser irradiation. In this case, the smart capability can increase the accumulation at the tumor site or the on-demand drug release, while the ligand ensures selective binding to the tumor cells. The present review highlights some interesting studies classified according to the nanostructure material. These materials include natural substances (polysaccharides), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (and halloysite nanotubes), metal-organic frameworks and covalent-organic frameworks, metal nanoparticles (gold and silver), and polymeric micelles.

Abstract
In this study, a heterogeneous nanocatalyst is presented that is capable to efficiently catalyze the synthetic reactions of amide bond formation between the amino acids. This nanocatalyst which is named Fe3O4@SiO2/TABHA (TABHA stands for thio-aza-bicyclo-hepten amine), was composed of several layers that increased the surface area to be functionalized with 2-aminothiazole rings via Diels-Alder approach. Firstly, various analytic methods such as Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopic methods, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), electron microscopy (EM), and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-DRS) have been used to characterize the desired structure of the Fe3O4@SiO2/TABHA catalyst. Afterward, the application of the presented catalytic system has been studied in the peptide bond formation reactions. Due to the existence of a magnetic core in the structure of the nanocatalyst, the nanoparticles (NPs) could be easily separated from the reaction medium by an external magnet. This special feature has been corroborated by the obtained results from vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) analysis that showed 24 emu g-1 magnetic saturation for the catalytic system. Amazingly, a small amount of Fe3O4@SiO2/TABHA particles (0.2 g) has resulted in ca. 90% efficiency in catalyzing the peptide bond formation at ambient temperature, over 4 h. Also, this nanocatalyst has demonstrated an acceptable recycling ability, where ca. 76% catalytic performance has been observed after four recycles. Due to high convenience in the preparation, application, and recyclization processes, and also because of lower cost than the traditional coupling reagents (like TBTU), the presented catalytic system is recommended for the industrial utilization.

Abstract
Herein, a concise review of the latest developments in catalytic processes involving organic reactions is presented, focusing on magnetic catalytic systems (MCSs). In recent years, various micro- and nanoscale magnetic catalysts have been prepared through different methods based on optimized reaction conditions and utilized in complex organic synthesis or degradation reactions of pharmaceutical compounds. These biodegradable, biocompatible and eco-benign MCSs have achieved the principles of green chemistry, and thus their usage is highly advocated. In addition, MCSs can shorten the reaction time, effectively accelerate reactions, and significantly upgrade both pharmaceutical synthesis and degradation mechanisms by preventing unwanted side reactions. Moreover, the other significant benefits of MCSs include their convenient magnetic separation, high stability and reusability, inexpensive raw materials, facile preparation routes, and surface functionalization. In this review, our aim is to present at the recent improvements in the structure of versatile MCSs and their characteristics, i.e., magnetization, recyclability, structural stability, turnover number (TON), and turnover frequency (TOF). Concisely, different hybrid and multifunctional MCSs are discussed. Additionally, the applications of MCSs for the synthesis of different pharmaceutical ingredients and degradation of organic wastewater contaminants such as toxic dyes and drugs are demonstrated.

Abstract
In this study, a novel and efficient drug delivery system is proposed for the enhancement of antimicrobial properties of antibiotic medications such as vancomycin (VCM) and levofloxacin (OFX). The architecture of the designed drug carrier is based on halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) with a rolled-laminate shape, suitable for the encapsulation of drug and further release. In order to make them capable for magnetic direction to the target tissue, the exterior surface of the tubes is composed of iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs), via an in situ process. The main role in the antimicrobial activity enhancement is played by a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) sequence synthesized in the solid phase, which contains three arginine–tryptophan blocks plus a cysteine as the terminal amino acid (C(WR)3). The drug content values for the prepared nanocargoes named as VCM@Fe3O4/HNT–C(WR)3 and OFX@Fe3O4/HNT–C(WR)3, have been estimated at ca. 10 wt% and 12 wt%, respectively. Also, the drug release investigations have shown that above 90% of the encapsulated drug is released in acetate buffer (pH = 4.6), during a 90 minutes process. Confocal microscopy has corroborated good adhesion and co-localization of the particles and the stained living cells. Moreover, in vitro antimicrobial assessments (optical density, zone of inhibition, and minimum inhibitory concentration) have revealed that the bacterial cell growth rate is significantly inhibited by suggested nanocargoes, in comparison with the individual drugs in the same dosage. Hence, administration of the presented nanocargoes is recommended for the clinical treatment of the infected target organ. A novel anti-infection therapeutic nano-bioconjugate based on magnetized halloysite nanotubes and a CPP is presented. High levels of bactericidal effects have been obtained with the designed nanocargo in comparison with the individual drugs.![]()

Abstract
A novel reusable Fe3O4@NC@Pt heterogeneous catalyst was synthesized by immobilizing platinum on nitrogen-doped carbon magnetic nanostructures. It was characterized by infrared analysis (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The catalytic efficiency of Fe3O4@NC@Pt was investigated by reduction of nitro aromatic compounds. The catalyst showed good catalytic activity, wide range of substrates, and good chemical selectivity, especially for the substrates of compounds containing halide and carbonyl groups. The magnetically catalyst can readily be reused up to ten cycles without loss of catalytic activity. Moreover, the key pharmaceutical intermediate Lorlatini can be facilely achieved through this strategy.

A combined management scheme to simultaneously mitigate As and Cd concentrations in rice cultivated in contaminated paddy soil. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 416:125837. [PMID: 34492794 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.125837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2020] [Revised: 04/03/2021] [Accepted: 04/03/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Paddy soils in southern China are heavily co-polluted by arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd). The accumulation of these contaminants in rice grains may pose a high health risk. We evaluated the impact of adjusted water management practice (i.e., conventional irrigation and aerobic treatment after heading stage) and the application of two immobilization agents (i.e., CaO and Fe2O3) on the accumulation of As and Cd in rice grains of three rice varieties (i.e., Jinyou-463, Jinyou-268, and Mabayouzhan). The different schemes were tested via conducting a field experiment in paddy soil in Shaoguan, Guangdong Province, China. The results showed that the combined scheme (selecting Jinyou-268, aerobic water management after the heading stage, and 0.09% CaO and 0.5% Fe2O3 amendments) exhibited the best performance in the reduction of As and Cd accumulation in rice grains. This combined scheme decreased the grain As concentration by 26.19% and maintained the Cd at a low level (0.056 mg/kg) as compared to the use of local conventional irrigation patterns. Moreover, health risk assessment demonstrated that by applying the optimal scheme, neither As nor Cd content in rice had carcinogenic risk. However, the grain As remains at a high non-carcinogenic risk. We suggest that future field study design should fully incorporate the uncertainty of the natural environment to make the research conclusions more feasible for popularization and utilization. This study demonstrated an approach of utilizing the synergy effects of various measures for safe rice production in fields subjected to As and Cd contaminations.

Abstract
Here, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with numerous hydroxyl groups has been applied as a suitable substrate for efficient formation of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with a flower shape (confirmed by electron-scanning microscopy), silver iodide (AgI) nanoparticles, and chlorophyll (Chl), as a natural-based photocatalyst (PVA/ZnO/AgI/Chl). First, an efficient preparation route for the PVA/ZnO/AgI/Chl nanophotocatalyst is presented starting from the extraction of Chl from fresh spinach. Then, the catalytic role of the prepared composite is precisely investigated in degradation of methylene blue (MB). The effects of visible-light irradiation, different contact times, and the employed ingredients on the architecture of the PVA/ZnO/AgI/Chl are screened in the degradation process of MB. It is demonstrated that the best result (MB removal efficiency ca. 95.5%) is achieved by applying the visible-light irradiation using a LED lamp (70 W, λ = 425 nm) for a 60 min duration. Moreover, the photocatalytic performance of PVA/ZnO/AgI/Chl has been further confirmed by degradation of Congo red (CR) (ca. 92%, in 150 min) and 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) (88%, in 270 min), as well. As another function of the prepared PVA/ZnO/AgI/Chl composite, a substantial antibacterial property against human bacterial pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli as Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria has been noticed, studied by agar diffusion cup plate and colony methods. The zones of inhibition have been evaluated ca. 20 and 12 mm for the S. aureus and E. coli cell lines, respectively. Finally, a great synergy between the prepared composite and the visible light has been observed through the examination of the live bacteria: 99.6% for S. aureus and 99.8% for E. coli in the presence of visible light, after the subjection of PVA/ZnO/AgI/Chl particles to the bacteria, verified by the colony counter method.

Abstract
Potential toxicants in sediments collected from an industrialized bay of Korea were identified by use of effect-directed analysis (EDA). Three marine microalgal bioassays (Dunaliella tertiolecta, Isochrysis galbana, and Phaeodactylum tricornutum) with diverse endpoints were employed. Initial screening of raw organic extracts of sediments indicated large variations among locations and species in a traditional endpoint "inhibition of growth". After fractionation, inhibition of growths increased significantly, particularly in some fractions containing aromatics with log KOW 5-6 (F2.6). While viabilities of cells were adversely affected in more fractions, including F2.6-F2.7 (log KOW 5-7) and F3.5-F3.6 (log KOW 4-6). Among the several endpoints of viability, esterase activity seemed to be more sensitive, followed by integrity of cell membranes, chlorophyll a, cell size, and intracellular complexity. Instrumental analyses indicated that toxicities to microalgae observed in F2.7 could not be fully explained by target PAHs. Full-scan screening analysis using GC-QTOFMS identified 58 compounds in F2.7 with matching scores ≥90%. Based on toxic potencies for these compounds predicted by ECOSAR, several causative agents, including 1-phenylpyrene, dibenz[a,c]anthracene, and picene were suggested. Overall, viability of microalgae provided sensitive and high-resolution toxicity screening of samples into integrative assessment of sediment.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) attracted significant scientific interest, considering their immense diversity of usage and biocompatibility. Perceiving the growing importance of sustainable chemistry, many efforts have been made to prepare these NPs using naturally occurring materials mostly plant extracts and microbes. Magnetic NPs (MNPs) are commonly used as composites and are considered in two matters: synthesis and modification of their functional groups. Biopolymeric nanocomposites are a group of hybrid materials composed of natural polymers and inorganic nanomaterials. Biopolymers such as alginate, cellulose, starch, gelatin, chitosan, etc. have been considered extensively and provided composites with better electrical and mechanical thermal properties. Fe3O4 NPs incorporated in a polymer and biopolymer matrix is a good instance of the functional nanostructure, which has been able to enhance the properties of both ingredients. These hybrids can have impressive applications in various scopes such as magneto-optical storage, electromagnetic interference shielding, catalyst, water remediation, biomedical sensing, and so on. In this study, we have tried to briefly introduce Fe3O4 NPs, investigate the green and sustainable methods that have been suggested for its synthesis and review recent utilization of their biopolymeric nanocomposite (NC) including starch, chitosan, dextrin, etc. as catalysts and photocatalysts.

Abstract
In this work, a novel catalytic system for facilitating the organic multicomponent synthesis of 9-phenyl hexahydroacridine pharmaceutical derivatives is reported. Concisely, this catalyst was constructed from acacia gum (gum arabic) as a natural polymeric base, iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs), and sulfone functional groups on the surface as the main active catalytic sites. Herein, a convenient preparation method for this nanoscale composite is introduced. Then, essential characterization methods such as various spectroscopic analyses and electron microscopy (EM) were performed on the fabricated nano-powder. The thermal stability and magnetic properties were also precisely monitored via thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) methods. Then, the performance of the presented catalytic system (Fe3O4@acacia-SO3H) was further investigated in the referred organic reaction by using various derivatives of the components involved in the reaction. Optimization, mechanistic studies, and reusability screening were carried out for this efficient catalyst as well. Overall, remarkable reaction yields (94%) were obtained for the various produced derivatives of 9-phenyl hexahydroacridine in the indicated optimal conditions.

Abstract
Fe3O4@PVA-Cu nanocomposite was introduced as an affordable catalyst for selective oxidation of alcohols into various aldehydes and ketones. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by applying essential analyses. The peaks that are appeared in FT-IR spectroscopy confirmed the production of the Fe3O4@PVA-Cu nanocomposite. In addition, EDX analysis proved the presence of oxygen, carbon, iron, and copper elements in the catalyst. Further, TGA analysis showed high thermal stability of the nanocomposite. VSM technique was applied to examine the magnetic property of the nanocomposite. The results demonstrated a high magnetic property in the catalyst, which enables easy separation of it from the reaction solution. TEM and SEM imaging showed the nanoscale size of the particles (~20 nm) in the catalyst. Additionally, XRD data was compatible with that of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The application of the nanocomposite has been studied in the selective oxidation of alcohols in the presence of acetonitrile as solvent, and hydrogen peroxide as a supplementary oxidizing agent. This technique is remarkably facile and inexpensive. Further, the products showed high yields. In addition, the calculated TON and TOF values indicated the phenomenal efficiency of the nanocomposite in preparation of targeted products.

Abstract
Herein, a novel high-performance heterogeneous catalytic system made of volcanic pumice magnetic particles (VPMP), cellulose (CLS) natural polymeric texture, and palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) is presented. The introduced VPMP@CLS-Pd composite has been designed based on the principles of green chemistry, and suitably applied in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, as an efficient heterogeneous catalytic system. Concisely, the inherent magnetic property of VPMP (30 emu g-1) provides a great possibility for separation of the catalyst particles from the reaction mixture with great ease. In addition, high heterogeneity and high structural stability are obtained by this composition resulting in remarkable recyclability (ten times successive use). As the main catalytic sites, palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) are finely distributed onto the VPMP@CLS structure. To catalyze the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions producing biphenyl pharmaceutical derivatives, the present Pd NPs were reduced from chemical state Pd2+ to Pd0. In this regard, a plausible mechanism is submitted in the context as well. As the main result of the performed analytical methods (including FT-IR, EDX, VSM, TGA, FESEM, TEM, BTE, and XPS), it is shown that the spherical-shaped nanoscale Pd particles have been well distributed onto the surfaces of the porous laminate-shaped VPMP. However, the novel designed VPMP@CLS-Pd catalyst is used for facilitating the synthetic reactions of biphenyls, and high reaction yields (∼98%) are obtained in a short reaction time (10 min) by using a small amount of catalytic system (0.01 g), under mild conditions (room temperature).

Design and Fabrication of a Magnetite-based Polymer-supported Hybrid Nanocomposite: A Promising Heterogeneous Catalytic System Utilized in Known Palladium-assisted Coupling Reactions. Comb Chem High Throughput Screen 2020; 23:119-125. [DOI: 10.2174/1386207323666200128152136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2019] [Revised: 12/07/2019] [Accepted: 01/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Objective:
Herein, a novel heterogeneous catalytic system constructed of iron oxide and
palladium nanoparticles is presented. Firstly, a convenient synthetic pathway for the preparation of this
catalytic system is introduced, then the application of the fabricated nanocomposite in the Pd-catalyzed
C─C coupling reactions is monitored. High reaction yields (98%) have been obtained in short reaction
time, by using this catalytic system.
Materials and Methods:
Fe3O4/P4VP-Pd catalytic system was fabricated via an in situ method by 4-
vinylpyridine (4-VP). In this regard, all the essential structural analyses such as FT-IR, EDX, VSM, and
TGA have been performed on the Fe3O4/P4VP-Pd catalytic system to investigate its properties. The
spherical morphology of the NPs and their uniform size have also been studied by the SEM method.
Further, the reaction progress was controlled by thin-layer chromatography. Finally, NMR analysis was
used to identify the synthesized biphenyl pharmaceutical derivatives.
Results:
High efficiency of this catalytic system has been precisely investigated and the optimal conditions
were determined. The catalytic process is carried out in 20 min, under mild conditions (room temperature).
Then, the purification process is easily performed via magnetic separation of the catalyst NPs. After
completion of the synthesis reaction, the NPs were collected, washed, and reused several times.
Conclusion:
Among recently reported heterogeneous catalytic systems, Fe3O4/P4VP-Pd is recommended
due to its high catalytic performance, convenience of the preparation process, excellent biocompatibility,
economic benefits, and well reusability. Overall, in order to save time in the complex synthetic processes
and also prevent using so many chemical reagents and solvents for the purification process, the presented
catalytic system could be suitable for scaling up and applying for the industrial applications.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In this research, we identified novel α-iminonitrile derivatives using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, CHN, and FT-IR analyses, as well. In order to determine the well-known derivatives, we used FT-IR method as well as comparing their melting points with those of reported. CONCLUSION In summary, an extremely efficient method was used for the environmentally-friendly synthesis of α-iminonitrile derivatives that are important bioactive substances. The catalytic oxidative coupling reaction afforded the products via a one-pot three-component condensation reaction of various aldehydes, primary amines and TMSCN with great reaction yields, in ethanol under mild conditions.
