Abstract
The direct and selective coupling of benzenes with aliphatic hydrocarbons is a promising strategy for C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond formation using readily available starting materials, yet it remains a significant challenge. In this study, we have developed a simplified photochemical system that incorporates catalytic amounts of iron(III) halides as multifunctional reagents and air as a green oxidant to address this synthetic problem. Under mild conditions, the reaction between a strong C(sp2)-H bond and a robust C(sp3)-H bond has been achieved, affording a broad range of cross-coupling products with high yields and commendable chemo-, site-selectivity. The iron halide acts as a multifunctional reagent that responds to visible light, initiates C-centered radicals, induces single-electron oxidation to carbocations, and participates in a subsequent Friedel-Crafts-type process. The gradual release of radical species and carbocation intermediates appears to be critical for achieving desirable reactivity and selectivity. This eco-friendly, cost-efficient approach offers access to various building blocks from abundant hydrocarbon feedstocks, and demonstrates the potential of iron halides in sustainable synthesis.

Ternary Ca-Mg-Al layered double-hydroxides for synergistic remediation of As, Cd, and Pb from both contaminated soil and groundwater: Characteristics, effectiveness, and immobilization mechanisms. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 442:130030. [PMID: 36170797 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.130030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 09/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDH) are the cost-effective and high-efficiency materials for remediation of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in contaminated soil and groundwater. Herein, the effectiveness and mechanisms of a ternary Ca-Mg-Al LDH (CMAL) for the synergistic remediation of As, Cd, and Pb were investigated in contaminated soils and simulative groundwaters for the first time. The immobilization efficiencies of As, Cd, and Pb in both black soil (BS) and red soil (RS) amended by CMAL at 5 wt% were all > 75%. CMAL amendment transferred more mobile As, Cd, and Pb fractions in soils to immobile species than did Ca-Al LDH and Mg-Al LDH treatments. Furthermore, using a pump-and-treat technology, 82-98% of these 3 PTEs from contaminated groundwater were successfully immobilized in both CMAL treated BS and RS top-soils. Meanwhile, leaching of Ca, Mg, and Al from CMAL was minimal indicating the material was stable. The excellent immobilization performance of CMAL for these PTEs was attributed to the coating of soil microparticles by CMAL nanosheets that allowed complexation of Ca-O-As/Cd or Mg-O-As/Cd/Pb formation, co-precipitation of Ca/Fe-As and Cd(OH)2, and formation of Ca-bridged ternary complex (FeO-Ca-As/Cd). The adverse effect of oppositive pH/Eh-dependence between As and Cd/Pb was overshadowed by these mechanisms and thus allowed As immobilization. Immobilization of As, Cd, and Pb by CMAL amendment was more favorable for RS soil due to its lower reduction potential and more participation of metal-(hydr)oxides for complexation. Overall, the ternary-LDH is a promising synergistic remediation strategy for multi-PTEs contaminated soil and groundwater.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 828:154275. [PMID: 35248636 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.154275] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2021] [Revised: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/27/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
p-Nitrochlorobenzene (p-NCB) is widely used in industry and poses a potential threat to the public health due to its persistence, carcinogenicity and mutagenicity. Herein, magnetic catalyst CoFe2O4@Biochar (CoFe2O4@BC) was synthesized by a facile sol-gel method, efficiently activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade p-NCB. The synergistic effect of Fe and Co in well-dispersed CoFe2O4 and the electron transfer promote the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (OH, SO4- and O2-), efficiently removing p-NCB enriched by CoFe2O4@BC. Under optimum conditions, the CoFe2O4@BC/PMS system could remove 89% of p-NCB from water, and the degradation efficiency could reach 80% in soil. Toxic chlorinated intermediates appeared during the degradation process and thus efficient dechlorination process can lower the toxicity of the reaction solution, which was also proved by the oxygen uptake inhibition experiment as well as zebrafish toxicity experiments. Furthermore, p-NCB degradation efficiency could be inhibited by Cl-, HCO3-, HPO42- and humic acid (HA) through quenching effect or occupation of CoFe2O4@BC surface active sites while HPO42- could also improve the efficiency by directly activating PMS. The CoFe2O4@BC/PMS system can be efficiently applied in the remediation of p-NCB pollution in water and soil.
