Abstract
Massive anions in high saline wastewater are primary factors that restricted the efficiency of pollutant degradation in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Herein, we reported the influence laws of different anions at high concentration on the electron-transfer process in the activation of persulfate, and especially, the sulfate anion exhibited the excellent promotion effect. Depending on the ionic charge, polarizability, and size, the anions exerted diverse effects on the dispersed phase and zeta potential of carbonaceous catalysts, which further embodied in the removal of pollutants. Based on the differences of reaction rate constant in water solution and high saline solution, the order was ClO4- < NO3- < Cl- < SO42- < CO32-, obeying the Hofmeister series. The enhancement of the sulfate anion was widely confirmed with different carbonaceous catalysts and pollutants with various structures. It could be attributed to the higher oxidation capacity, the faster interfacial electron transfer, and the better catalyst dispersion in the high sulfate environment. On the other hand, the decrease of zeta potential of the catalyst induced by sulfate reinforced the electrostatic attraction or repulsion with pollutants, which caused the selectivity of the sulfate promotion effect. Overall, this study provides new insights into the mechanism of influence of anions on AOPs, which refreshed the cognition of the role of sulfate on pollutant degradation, and helps guide the treatment design of high salinity wastewater.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2021; 78:105750.

Abstract
The novel system, consisting of composite oxidants (persulfate/chlorite, S2O82-/ClO2-) and stationary phase activator (zero-valent-iron foam, Fe0f) driven by ultrasonic (US) field, was applied to treat the triphenylmethane derivative effectively even at low temperature (≈ 289 K). By comparisons of sub-systems, the US roles to S2O82-, ClO2-, and Fe0f were seriatim analyzed. US made the reaction order of multi-component system tend to within 1 (leading to de-order reaction), and widened pH activating range of the Fe0f by sonicate-polishing during the process of ClO2- co-activating S2O82-. US and Fe0f were affected by fluid eddy on activating S2O82-/ClO2-. The Fe0f had slight effect on the temperature of US bubble-water interface but the addition of ClO2- lowered it. The partitioning capacity of the above US reactive zone increased during the reaction. US and ClO2- could enrich the kinds of degradation intermediates. The contributions of free radicals (ClOx-based radicals, sulfate radicals (SO4-), and hydroxyl radicals (OH)) and non-free radicals (ClO2, and O = FeIV/V from ionic Fe under "-O-O-" of S2O82- and cyclic adjustment reaction of ClO2-) processes by sonochemical induction were equally important by corresponding detection means. Especially, real-time and online high-resolution mass spectrum by self-developing further confirmed the chain transfers of different free radicals due to US role. The findings expanded the application of sono-persulfate-based systems and improved understanding on activation mechanism.

Abstract
The combination of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) medical tubing was previously demonstrated to degrade an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), a phenomenon proposed to occur by free radical mechanisms. This study tests the hypothesis that dehydrochlorinated PVC at the tubing surface increases the oxidative potential of PEG autooxidation via radical propagation. The functional group composition at the surfaces of intact, autoclaved, or force-degraded medical grade PVC tubings was assessed by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). The content of double bonds in PVC was correlated with the extent of API degradation in the PEG-PVC system, with the repeated autoclaving cycle treatments yielding the most reactive tubing. After PEG exposure, new functional groups on the surface of PVC were observed, indicating the participation of PVC in the oxidation reactions. The PEG-PVC system was further probed by the fluorinated spin-trap reagent FDMPO, where trapped adducts were analyzed by 19F NMR, revealing the presence of three radical species. Trapped adducts were then analyzed by two-dimensional liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (2D-LC-MS/MS), which revealed the presence of free chlorine atoms and/or hypochlorous acid and a PEG alkoxy radical. Chemical mechanisms describing the interaction between dehydrochlorinated PVC and PEG are proposed to explain the presence of free radicals and the functional group changes in the PVC surface.

Abstract
A ratiometric fluorescent probe is described that is based on a functionalized europium(III) coordination polymer (Eu/DPA-TA). It can be fabricated by using dipicolinic acid (DPA) as a bridging ligand (to sensitize the Eu3+ fluorescence) and terephthalic acid (TA) acting as a functional ligand to recognize the hydroxy radical (•OH). The quenching of Eu3+ fluorescence (measured at excitation/emission wavelengths of 288/615 nm) by water is strongly reduced in the presence of TA. This leads to a significant enhancement in the emission lifetime and intensity of Eu3+. Upon the addition of •OH, the fluorescence of Eu/DPA-TA showed ratiometric changes in that the TA sensitized fluorescence (peaking at 445 nm) is switched on, while the plain Eu3+ fluorescence (peaking at 615 nm) decreases. This finding led to a method for the ratiometric (2-wavelength) detection of OH˙ with a 0.5 μM detection limit. The method also allows OH˙ to be detected with bare eyes at OH˙ concentrations as low as 10 μM. In our perception, this study paves the way towards the design of new functionalized lanthanide coordination polymers for fluorometric assays and biomedical imaging. Graphical abstract Schematic of a ratiometric fluorescent assay for the detection of hydroxy radical (•OH) based on the use of a europium(III)/dipicolinic acid coordination polymer (Eu/DPA CP) functionalized with terephthalic acid (TA). A gradual color change from red to blue can be observed and correlated to •OH concentrations.

Abstract
Biogenic alkenes, which are among the most abundant volatile organic compounds in the atmosphere, are readily oxidized by ozone. Characterizing the reactivity and kinetics of the first-generation products of these reactions, carbonyl oxides (often named Criegee intermediates), is essential in defining the oxidation pathways of organic compounds in the atmosphere but is highly challenging due to the short lifetime of these zwitterions. Here, we report the development of a novel online method to quantify atmospherically relevant Criegee intermediates (CIs) in the gas phase by stabilization with spin traps and analysis with proton-transfer reaction mass spectrometry. Ozonolysis of α-pinene has been chosen as a proof-of-principle model system. To determine unambiguously the structure of the spin trap adducts with α-pinene CIs, the reaction was tested in solution, and reaction products were characterized with high-resolution mass spectrometry, electron paramagnetic resonance, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. DFT calculations show that addition of the Criegee intermediate to the DMPO spin trap, leading to the formation of a six-membered ring adduct, occurs through a very favorable pathway and that the product is significantly more stable than the reactants, supporting the experimental characterization. A flow tube set up has been used to generate spin trap adducts with α-pinene CIs in the gas phase. We demonstrate that spin trap adducts with α-pinene CIs also form in the gas phase and that they are stable enough to be detected with online mass spectrometry. This new technique offers for the first time a method to characterize highly reactive and atmospherically relevant radical intermediates in situ.

Abstract
This work reports a novel dual-emissive fluorescent probe based on dye hybrid silica nanoparticles for ratiometric measurement of the hydroxyl radical (˙OH). In the probe sensing system, the blue emission of coumarin dye (coumarin-3-carboxylic acid, CCA) immobilized on the nanoparticle surface is selectively enhanced by ˙OH due to the formation of a coumarin hydroxylation product with strong fluorescence, whereas the emission of red fluorescent dye encapsulated in the silica nanoparticle is insensitive to ˙OH as a self-referencing signal, and so the probe provides a good quantitative analysis based on ratiometric fluorescence measurement with a detection limit of 1.65 μM. Moreover, the probe also shows high selectivity for ˙OH determination against metal ions, other reactive oxygen species and biological species. More importantly, it exhibits low cytotoxicity and high biocompatibility in living cells, and has been successfully used for cellular imaging of ˙OH, showing its promising application for monitoring of intracellular ˙OH signaling events.

Abstract
This contribution describes the trapping of the hydroperoxyl radical at a pH of 4 during turnover of wild-type oxalate decarboxylase and its T165V mutant using the spin-trap BMPO. Radicals were detected and identified by a combination of EPR and mass spectrometry. Superoxide, or its conjugate acid, the hydroperoxyl radical, is expected as an intermediate in the decarboxylation and oxidation reactions of the oxalate monoanion, both of which are promoted by oxalate decarboxylase. Another intermediate, the carbon dioxide radical anion was also observed. The quantitative yields of superoxide trapping are similar in the wild type and the mutant while it is significantly different for the trapping of the carbon dioxide radical anion. This suggests that the two radicals are released from different sites of the protein.

Abstract
5-Diisopropyloxy-phosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DIPPMPO) was used to trap a variety of free radicals and the stable compounds generated by the natural decomposition of the initially formed spin adducts were characterized by (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry. Initially, the starting spin trap DIPPMPO was completely characterized using GC-MS and its fragmentation pathway was studied in detail. Then, DIPPMPO was used to trap an oxygen-centered free radical (the hydroxyl radical *OH) and two carbon- centered free radicals (methyl *CH(3) and 1-phenyl-ethanol-1-yl *CCH(3)(OH)Ph radicals). The (31)P NMR signals were thus assigned and the structures of adducts were studied and confirmed by mass spectrometry. Overall, the fragmentation pathways of the radical adducts proceed mainly via the loss of the diisopropyloxy(oxido)phosphoranyl radical. For the specific case of trapping *OH radicals, it is possible to visualize the rearrangement of the nitroxide radical adduct to its nitrone form as invoked in the literature. This spin trapping technique, coupled with (31)P NMR and MS, provides a tool for the identification of short-lived and low molecular weight free radicals present in a variety of processes.

Abstract
This study evaluates the use of a pyrroline (DEPMPO) and an imidazole (MCPIO) spin trap for the detection of hydroxyl and biomolecule (a peptide and a phospholipid) free radical adducts by Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS). The hydroxyl and biomolecule free radical adducts were detected using a QTOF and a linear ion trap (LIT) mass spectrometers. In the presence of hydroxyl radical, the mass spectrum obtained for each of the spin traps, DEPMPO and MCPIO, showed the presence of ions that could be attributed to hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals. Further characterisation by tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) revealed also the presence of hydroxy-hydroxyl adducts. Based on the results here described, we show that DEPMPO is a better spin trap for free radicals trapping and detection by mass spectrometry mainly because adducts show increased signal intensity. The ESI-MS spectra obtained for DEPMPO and MCPIO in the presence of biomolecule radicals (peptide and phospholipid) show molecular ions of DEPMPO and MCPIO adducts, which were characterised by tandem mass spectrometry. Both carbon centered radicals and oxygen centered radicals were efficiently trapped by the two spin traps and analysis of QTOF-MS/MS mass spectra allowed the location of the radical position in either the peptide or in the phospholipid fatty acyl chain. However, the tandem mass spectra of MCPIO adducts were more informative than DEPMPO adducts. The LIT-MS/MS spectra only shows typical peptide and phospholipid fragmentation, which difficult the structural characterisation of the spin adduct. In this study, the DEPMPO and MCPIO adducts were identified either in the nitrone or in the hydroxylamine form, which are ESR silent forms. The results described here show that both spin traps coupled with detection by mass spectrometry are valuable tools for trapping radicals of biomolecules. Furthermore, the acquired data provide valuable information on the presence of adducts (hydroxyl and biomolecule) that are Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) silent. This is especially important considering the complexity of the radical species in biological environment and the presence of reducing compounds that convert the spin adducts to silent ESR forms.

Abstract
Linoleic acid radical products formed by radical reaction (Fenton conditions) were trapped using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidine-N-oxide (DMPO) and analysed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The linoleic acid radical species detected as DMPO spin adducts comprised oxidized linoleic acid and short-chain radical species that resulted from the breakdown of carbon and oxygen centred radicals. Based on the m/z values, the short-chain products were identified as alkyl and carboxylic acid DMPO radical adducts that exhibited different elution times. The ions identified as DMPO radical adducts were studied by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The LC-MS/MS spectra of linoleic acid DMPO radical adducts exhibited the fragment ion at m/z 114 and/or the loss of neutral molecule of 113 Da (DMPO) or 131 Da (DMPO + H2O), indicated to be DMPO adducts. The short-chain products identified allowed inference of the radical oxidation along the linoleic acid chain by abstraction of hydrogen atoms in carbon atoms ranging from C-8 to C-14. Other ions containing the fragment ion at m/z 114 in the LC-MS/MS spectra were attributed to DMPO adducts of unsaturated aldehydes, hydroxy-aldehydes and oxocarboxylic acids. The identification of aldehydic products formed by radical oxidation of linoleic acid peroxidation products, as short-chain product DMPO adducts, is a means of identifying lipid peroxidation products.

Abstract
Many electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) radical adducts from the reaction of organic hydroperoxides with heme proteins or Fe(2+) were assigned to the adducts of DMPO with peroxyl, alkoxyl, and alkyl radicals. In particular, the controversial assignment of DMPO/peroxyl radical adducts was based on the close similarity of their ESR spectra to that of the DMPO/superoxide radical adduct in conjunction with their insensitivity to superoxide dismutase, which distinguishes the peroxyl adducts from the DMPO/superoxide adduct. Although recent reports assigned the spectra suggested to be DMPO/peroxyl radical adducts to the DMPO/methoxyl adduct based on independent synthesis of the adduct and/or (17)O-labeling, (17)O-labeling is extremely expensive, and both of these assignments were still based on hyperfine coupling constants, which have not been confirmed by independent techniques. In this study, we have used online high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC or LC)/ESR, electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to separate and directly characterize DMPO oxygen-centered radical adducts formed from the reaction of Fe(2+) with t-butyl or cumene hydroperoxide. In each reaction system, two DMPO oxygen-centered radical adducts were separated and detected by online LC/ESR. The first DMPO radical adduct from both systems showed identical chromatographic retention times (t(R) = 9.6 min) and hyperfine coupling constants (a(N) = 14.51 G, a(H)(beta) = 10.71 G, and a(H)(gamma) = 1.32 G). The ESI-MS and MS/MS spectra demonstrated that this radical was the DMPO/methoxyl radical adduct, not the peroxyl radical adduct as was thought at one time, although its ESR spectrum is nearly identical to that of the DMPO/superoxide radical adduct. Similarly, based on their MS/MS spectra, we verified that the second adducts (a(N) = 14.86 G and a(H)(beta) = 16.06 G in the reaction system containing t-butyl hydroperoxide and a(N) = 14.60 G and a(H)(beta) = 15.61 G in the reaction mixture containing cumene hydroperoxide), previously assigned as DMPO adducts of t-butyloxyl and cumyloxyl radical, were indeed from trapping t-butyloxyl and cumyloxyl radicals, respectively.

Abstract
New oxidation products and free radicals derived from tryptophan (Trp) oxidation under Fenton reaction conditions were identified using mass spectrometry. After the oxidation of tryptophan using hydrogen peroxide and iron (II) system (Fenton reaction), mono- and dihydoxy tryptophans and N-formylkynurenine were identified using electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) and ES-MS/MS. Besides these products, new products resulting from the reaction of tryptophan and oxidized tryptophan and 3-methyl indole derivatives were also identified. The 3-methyl indole derivatives resulted, most probably, from the oxidation process and not from in-source processes. A dimer formed by cross-linking between two Trp radicals (Trp-Trp), similar to the previously described tyrosine dimer was observed, as well as the corresponding monohydroxy-dimer (Trp-Trp-OH). Tandem mass spectrometry was used to identify the structures of these new oxidation products. Free radicals derived from tryptophan oxidation under Fenton reaction were detected using as spin trap the DMPO. The free radical species originated during the oxidation reaction formed stable adducts with the spin trap, and these adducts were identified by ES-MS. New adducts of oxidized tryptophan radicals, namely monohydroxy-tryptophan and dihydroxy-Trp dimer radicals, with one and two DMPO spin trap molecules where identified. Tandem mass spectrometry was used to confirm the proposed structure of the observed adducts.
