Abstract
Atorvastatin-an oral lipid regulating drug is a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA reductase), which is the rate determining enzyme for cholesterol synthesis. Adenine is a purine nucleobase that is found in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) to generate genetic information. The binding mechanism of atorvastatin and adenine was studied for the first time utilizing various techniques, including UV-visible spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetry, synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy (SF), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and metal ion complexation. The fluorescence spectra of the complex indicated that atorvastatin is bound to adenine via hydrophobic interaction through a spontaneous binding process, and the fluorescence quenching mechanism was found to be static quenching with a binding constant of 1.4893 × 104 Lmol-1 at 298 K. Various temperature settings were used to investigate thermodynamic characteristics, such as binding forces, binding constants, and the number of binding sites. The interaction parameters, including the standard enthalpy change (ΔHο) and standard entropy change (ΔSο) were calculated using Van't Hoff's equation to be 42.82 kJmol-1 and 208.9 Jmol-1K-1, respectively. The findings demonstrated that the adenine- atorvastatin binding was endothermic. Furthermore, the results of the experiments revealed that some metal ions (K+, Ca+2, Co+2, Cu+2, and Al+3) facilitate the binding interaction between atorvastatin and adenine. Slight changes are observed in the FTIR spectra of adenine, indicating the binding interaction between adenine and atorvastatin.

Unveiling the mechanisms of carboxylic acid esterification on acid zeolites for biomass-to-energy: A review of the catalytic process through experimental and computational studies. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 349:140879. [PMID: 38061565 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140879] [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: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 11/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024]
Abstract
In recent years, there has been significant interest from industrial and academic areas in the esterification of carboxylic acids catalyzed by acidic zeolites, as it represents a sustainable and economically viable approach to producing a wide range of high-value-added products. However, there is a lack of comprehensive reviews that address the intricate reaction mechanisms occurring at the catalyst interface at both the experimental and atomistic levels. Therefore, in this review, we provide an overview of the esterification reaction on acidic zeolites based on experimental and theoretical studies. The combination of infrared spectroscopy with atomistic calculations and experimental strategies using modulation excitation spectroscopy techniques combined with phase-sensitive detection is presented as an approach to detecting short-lived intermediates at the interface of zeolitic frameworks under realistic reaction conditions. To achieve this goal, this review has been divided into four sections: The first is a brief introduction highlighting the distinctive features of this review. The second addresses questions about the topology and activity of different zeolitic systems, since these properties are closely correlated in the esterification process. The third section deals with the mechanisms proposed in the literature. The fourth section presents advances in IR techniques and theoretical calculations that can be applied to gain new insights into reaction mechanisms. Finally, this review concludes with a subtle approach, highlighting the main aspects and perspectives of combining experimental and theoretical techniques to elucidate different reaction mechanisms in zeolitic systems.

Abstract
The purpose of this experimental and modeling research is to study the pH effect and to determine the surface coverage plus the adsorption constant (Ka) of bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein adsorbed on TiO2 anatase surface, respectively. In situ Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflection spectroscopy in a flow-through cell was used to study the BSA adsorption on porous TiO2 anatase films. The experiments were performed in water solution, under different pH values, at a concentration of 10-6 mol/l. Theoretically, we extended the two-state model, based on a system of coupled differential equations, by adding a desorption parameter Kd2, for unfolded state. The model was solved taking into account the adsorption (Ka), desorption (Kd1,2), transformation (Kf) coefficients, and the initial solution protein concentration (C0). The findings clearly illustrated that the solution pH drastically changed the behavior of BSA adsorption, whereas the mathematical analytical solutions allowed us to determine the native state (θ1), the unfolded state (θ2), and the full one (θ) surface coverages. Finally, a good application of the approximated model on the experimental work, expanded BSA adsorbed on TiO2 anatase at pH = 1.7, indicated a value of Ka = (408.36 ± 0.996) × 102 mol-1 l min-1.

Abstract
The degradation of coking wastewater using a manganese oxide ore acidic oxidation was investigated. This work was performed in three stages. Firstly, the advantageous degradation conditions were measured by the degradation tests, and under the optimal conditions percentage degradation was obtained of 91.6% chemical oxygen demand measured by potassium dichromate oxidation (CODcr), 94.7% total nitrogen (TN), 98.3% phenols, 98.2% fatty acid, 89.5% tar, and 98.9% sulphide for the oxidized effluent, simultaneously cogenerating a Mn2+concentration of 46.2 g/L for Mn-electrolytic stock solution. Secondly, the transformation analysis of the special chemical group of coking wastewater contaminants illustrated that the employment of manganese oxide ore generated the degradation of low and high molecular weight organics, especially causing polymers to break down into oligomers. Thirdly, the electrochemical characteristics of the interface between wastewater and ore revealed that the contaminant degradation of coking wastewater greatly depended on the oxidation capacity of the surface oxide species, involving a simple answer to the MnO2 oxidation for small-molecule organic materials and a strengthening response to the MnO·OH oxidation for high-weight molecule organic substances. The treatment of coking wastewater using the Mn-oxide ore acidic oxidation process is an effective and value-added method, which is particularly applicable to high-concentration coking wastewater.

Abstract
The adsorption states of N2 and H2 on MgO-supported Ru nanoparticles under conditions close to those of ammonia synthesis (AS; 1 atm, 250 °C) were uncovered by modulation-excitation infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations using a nanoscale Ru particle model. The two most intense N2 adsorption peaks corresponded to the vertical chemisorption of N2 on the nanoparticle's top and bridge sites, while the remaining peaks were assigned to horizontally adsorbed N2 in view of the site heterogeneity of Ru nanoparticles. Long-term observations showed that vertically adsorbed N2 molecules gradually migrated from the top sites to the bridge sites. Compared to those adsorbed vertically, N2 molecules adsorbed horizontally exhibited a lower dipole moment, an increased N─N bond distance, and a decreased N─N bond order (i.e., were activated), which was ascribed to enhanced Ru-to-N charge transfer. H2 molecules were preferentially adsorbed horizontally on top sites and then rapidly dissociated to afford strongly surface-bound H atoms and thus block the active sites of Ru nanoparticles. Our results clarify the controversial adsorption/desorption behavior of N2 and H2 on AS catalysts and facilitate their further development.

Abstract
Operando characterization of working catalysts, requiring per definitionem the simultaneous measurement of catalytic performance, is crucial to identify the relevant catalyst structure, composition and adsorbed species. Frequently applied operando techniques are discussed, including X-ray absorption spectroscopy, near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. In contrast to these area-averaging spectroscopies, operando surface microscopy by photoemission electron microscopy delivers spatially-resolved data, directly visualizing catalyst heterogeneity. For thorough interpretation, the experimental results should be complemented by density functional theory. The operando approach enables to identify changes of cluster/nanoparticle structure and composition during ongoing catalytic reactions and reveal how molecules interact with surfaces and interfaces. The case studies cover the length-scales from clusters via nanoparticles to meso-scale aggregates, and demonstrate the benefits of specific operando methods. Restructuring, ligand/atom mobility, and surface composition alterations during the reaction may have pronounced effects on activity and selectivity. The nanoscale metal/oxide interface steers catalytic performance via a long ranging effect. Combining operando spectroscopy with switching gas feeds or concentration-modulation provides further mechanistic insights. The obtained fundamental understanding is a prerequisite for improving catalytic performance and for rational design.

Strong Activity Enhancement of the Photocatalytic Degradation of an Azo Dye on Au/TiO2 Doped with FeOx. Catalysts 2020.

Abstract
The doping of Au/TiO2 with FeOx is shown to result in a strong enhancement of its photocatalytic activity in the degradation of the azo dye Orange II. In order to examine the source of this enhancement, Au-FeOx/TiO2 nanocomposites containing different molar ratios of Au:Fe were synthesized, and X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) analyses indicated that the TiO2-supported Au nanoparticles were partially covered with an amorphous layer of FeOx species, in which the iron was present as Fe2+ and Fe3+. The metal-semiconductor system, i.e., Au/TiO2, showed only a moderate degradation rate, whereas doping with FeOx strongly enhanced the degradation activity. The bandgap energy decreased gradually from Au/TiO2 (3.13 eV) to the catalyst with the highest FeOx loading Au-FeOx (1:2)/TiO2 (2.23 eV), and this decrease was accompanied by a steady increase in the degradation activity of the catalysts. XPS analyses revealed that compared to Au/TiO2, on Au-FeOx/TiO2 a much higher population density of chemisorbed and/or dissociated oxygen species was generated, which together with the decreased bandgap resulted in the highest photocatalytic activity observed with Au-FeOx (1:2)/TiO2. The processes occurring during reaction on the catalyst surface and in the bulk liquid phase were investigated using operando attenuated total reflection IR spectroscopy (ATR-IR) combined with modulation excitation spectroscopy (MES), which showed that the doping of Au/TiO2 with FeOx weakens the interaction of the dye with the catalyst surface and strongly enhances the cleavage of the azo bond.

Abstract
The decomposition mechanisms of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP), a widely used simulant for organophosphorus chemical warfare agents (CWAs), are relatively well understood from previous studies. However, there still lacks a quantitative description of DMMP decomposition kinetics under ambient conditions that is relevant for sequestration applications. We investigated adsorption and decomposition kinetics of DMMP on amorphous zirconium hydroxide (ZH) using variable-temperature in situ attenuated total reflection (ATR) infrared spectroscopy. We demonstrate that quantifying DMMP decomposition kinetics using conventional methods, where the integrated absorbance of P-O vibrational modes is monitored, can be inaccurate because these spectra are also convoluted with C-O vibrational modes from transient surface methoxy species that are not proportional to DMMP decomposition due to methanol desorption. Here, we propose to use the ρ(PCH3) modes as an alternative way to track DMMP adsorption and decomposition reactions. On the basis of density functional theory (DFT) simulations and comparisons to relatively unreactive monoclinic zirconia (m-ZrO2), we assign the deconvoluted components of the ρ(PCH3) region and use it to monitor decomposition products over time at various temperatures. Because the PCH3 group is present in many toxic organophosphorus compounds, tracking the PCH3 bands in time-dependent IR spectra is useful for measuring surface kinetics of CWAs and their simulants on various decontamination materials.

Abstract
We investigate the ultrafast vibrational dynamics of monolayers from adsorbed rhenium-carbonyl CO2-reduction catalysts on a semiconductor surface (indium-tin-oxide (ITO)) with ultrafast two-dimensional attenuated total reflection infrared (2D ATR IR) spectroscopy. The complexes are partially equipped with isotope-labeled (13C) carbonyl ligands to generate two spectroscopically distinguishable forms of the molecules. Ultrafast vibrational energy transfer between the molecules is observed via the temporal evolution of cross-peaks between their symmetric carbonyl stretching vibrations. These contributions appear with time constant of 70 and 90 ps for downhill and uphill energy transfer, respectively. The energy transfer is thus markedly slower than any of the other intramolecular dynamics. From the transfer rate, an intermolecular distance of ∼4-5 Å can be estimated, close to the van der Waals distance of the molecular head groups. The present paper presents an important cornerstone for a better understanding of intermolecular coupling mechanisms of molecules on surfaces and explains the absence of similar features in earlier studies.

Abstract
Infrared absorption spectroscopy has proven to be one of the most powerful spectroscopic techniques available for the characterization of catalytic systems. Although the history of IR absorption spectroscopy in catalysis is long, the technique continues to provide key fundamental information about a variety of catalysts and catalytic reactions, and to also offer novel options for the acquisition of new information on both reaction mechanisms and the nature of the solids used as catalysts. In this review, an overview is provided of the main contributions that have been derived from IR absorption spectroscopy studies of catalytic systems, and a discussion is included on new trends and new potential directions of research involving IR in catalysis. We start by briefly describing the power of Fourier-transform IR (FTIR) instruments and the main experimental IR setups available, namely, transmission (TIR), diffuse reflectance (DRIFTS), attenuated total reflection (ATR-IR), and reflection-absorption (RAIRS), for advancing research in catalysis. We then discuss the different environments under which IR characterization of catalysts is carried out, including in situ and operando studies of typical catalytic processes in gas-phase, research with model catalysts in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) and so-called high-pressure cell instruments, and work involving liquid/solid interfaces. A presentation of the type of information extracted from IR data follows in terms of the identification of adsorbed intermediates, the characterization of the surfaces of the catalysts themselves, the quantitation of IR intensities to extract surface coverages, and the use of probe molecules to identify and titrate specific catalytic sites. Finally, the different options for carrying out kinetic studies with temporal resolution such as rapid-scan FTIR, step-scan FTIR, and the use of tunable lasers or synchrotron sources, and to obtain spatially resolved spectra, by sample rastering or by 2D imaging, are introduced.

Abstract
Design and performance of a reactor set-up for attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy suitable for simultaneous reaction monitoring of bulk liquid and catalytic solid-liquid-gas interfaces under working conditions are presented. As advancement of in situ spectroscopy an operando methodology for gas-liquid-solid reaction monitoring was developed that simultaneously combines catalytic activity and molecular level detection at the catalytically active site of the same sample. Semi-batch reactor conditions are achieved with the analytical set-up by implementing the ATR-IR flow-through cell in a recycle reactor system and integrating a specifically designed gas feeding system coupled with a bubble trap. By the use of only one spectrometer the design of the new ATR-IR reactor cell allows for simultaneous detection of the bulk liquid and the catalytic interface during the working reaction. Holding two internal reflection elements (IRE) the sample compartments of the horizontally movable cell are consecutively flushed with reaction solution and pneumatically actuated, rapid switching of the cell (<1 s) enables to quasi simultaneously follow the heterogeneously catalysed reaction at the catalytic interface on a catalyst-coated IRE and in the bulk liquid on a blank IRE. For a complex heterogeneous reaction, the asymmetric hydrogenation of 2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenone on chirally modified Pt catalyst the elucidation of catalytic activity/enantioselectivity coupled with simultaneous monitoring of the catalytic solid-liquid-gas interface is shown. Both catalytic activity and enantioselectivity are strongly dependent on the experimental conditions. The opportunity to gain improved understanding by coupling measurements of catalytic performance and spectroscopic detection is presented. In addition, the applicability of modulation excitation spectroscopy and phase-sensitive detection are demonstrated.

Abstract
Several of the multiple applications of titanium dioxide nanomaterials are directly related to the introduction or generation of charge carriers in the oxide. Thus, electrochemistry plays a central role in the understanding of the factors that must be controlled for the optimization of the material for each application. Herein, the main conceptual tools needed to address the study of the electrochemical properties of TiO(2) nanostructured electrodes are reviewed, as well as the electrochemical methods to prepare and modify them. Particular attention is paid to the dark electrochemical response of these nanomaterials and its direct connection with the TiO(2) electronic structure, interfacial area and grain boundary density. The physical bases for the generation of currents under illumination are also presented. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the kinetics of charge-carrier transfer to solution determines the sign and value of the photocurrent. Furthermore, methods for extracting kinetic information from open-circuit potential and photocurrent measurements are briefly presented. Some aspects of the combination of electrochemical and spectroscopic measurements are also dealt with. Finally, some of the applications of TiO(2) nanostructured samples derived from their electrochemical properties are concisely reviewed. Particular attention is paid to photocatalytic processes and, to a lesser extent, to photosynthetic reactions as well as to applications related to energy from the aspects of both saving (electrochromic layers) and accumulation (batteries). The use of TiO(2) nanomaterials in solar cells is not covered, as a number of reviews have been published addressing this issue.

Abstract
Design and performance of a flow-through cell for polarization-modulation infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) suitable for simultaneous monitoring of species on surface and in liquid phase on a molecular level at a high time resolution (ca. 1 s) are presented. In particular, the cell was designed to allow periodic concentration and temperature perturbations and thus excite physicochemical phenomena of interest occurring at solid-liquid interfaces. Utilizing the perturbations and spectral responses of both surface and liquid phase species, their dynamic behavior, kinetics, and correlations can be studied. The detection sensitivity is greatly enhanced by the data processing employed in modulation excitation spectroscopy (MES). The cell design is based on a theoretical model. The IR beam path through a multiple-phase system consisting of air, prism, and liquid as well as light reflection at the surface of a sample were considered in order to maximize the detected IR light intensity and absorption by surface molecules. Its high surface sensitivity was demonstrated by CO adsorption on a thin Pt film in a liquid phase. Combination of the PM-IRRAS with concentration MES led to a significant sensitivity enhancement for the detection of surface and liquid phase species. The temperature, tunable in a wide range from 263-343 K, could be controlled within an accuracy of 0.1 K and also modulated periodically in a completely reversible manner, thus allowing accurate temperature MES experiments. With these capabilities, dynamic physicochemical processes at solid-liquid interfaces can be sensitively investigated.
