[PMID: 38964695 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2024] [Revised: 06/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
Conversion of toxic nitroarenes into less toxic aryl amines, which are the most suitable precursors for different types of compounds, is done with various materials which are costly or take more time for this conversion. In this regards, a silica@poly(chitosan-N-isopropylacrylamide-methacrylic acid) Si@P(CS-NIPAM-MAA) Si@P(CNM) core-shell microgel system was synthesized through free radical precipitation polymerization (FRPP) and then fabricated with palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) by in situ-reduction method to form Si@Pd-P(CNM) and characterized with XRD, TEM, FTIR, SEM, and EDX. The catalytic efficiency of Si@Pd-P(CNM) hybrid microgels was studied for reduction of 4-nitroaniline (4NiA) under diverse conditions. Different nitroarenes were successfully transformed into their corresponding aryl amines with high yields using the Si@Pd-P(CNM) system as catalyst and NaBH4 as reductant. The Si@Pd-P(CNM) catalyst exhibited remarkable catalytic efficiency and recyclability as well as maintaining its catalytic effectiveness over multiple cycles.

Abstract
Reduction of nitroarenes to aminoarenes using novel and selective catalysts is an important and desirable approach in green chemistry. In this work, a new heterogeneous nanocatalyst, POM-PPPh3/L/Ni, was designed and prepared via functionalizing a Keggin-type polyoxometalate (H3PMo12O40) with (3-bromopropyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (BPPPh3Br) through strong electrostatic interactions to prepare [PMo12O40][PPPh3]3 (denoted as POM-PPPh3). The obtained compound was modified via nucleophilic attack of the nitrogen donor of a multidentate Schiff base ligand (L) on its propyl chain to produce [PMo12O40][PPPh3/L]2 (denoted as POM-PPPh3/L), which was finally metallated with nickel cations to achieve [PMo12O40][PPPh3/L/Ni]2 (denoted as POM-PPPh3/L/Ni). After full characterization of the prepared material with various physicochemical methods, its catalytic behavior was investigated in the catalytic nitroarene reduction. The influence of various factors on catalytic conversion and selectivity was considered. The synthesized nanocatalyst showed excellent performance in the reduction of nitroarenes in aqueous media in the presence of NaBH4 as a reducing agent. Mild reaction conditions and a short reaction time (10 min) are the prominent features of this new nanocatalyst. In addition, the catalyst was recovered and reused for up to four cycles of catalytic reduction without any significant loss of conversion.

Abstract
In recent years, the synergistic crosslinked networks formed by zinc oxide (ZnO) particles and organic polymers have gained significant attention. This importance is ascribed due to the valuable combination of low band gap containing ZnO particles with responsive behavior containing organic polymers. These properties of both ZnO and organic polymers make a suitable system of crosslinked ZnO-organic polymer composite (CZOPC) for various applications in the fields of biomedicine, catalysis, and environmental perspectives. The literature extensively provided the diverse morphologies and structures of CZOPC, and these architectural structures play a crucial role in determining their efficiency across various applications. Consequently, the careful design of CZOPC shapes tailored to specific purposes has become a focal point. This comprehensive review provides insights into the classifications, synthetic approaches, characterizations, and applications of ZnO particles decorated in organic polymers with crosslinked network. The exploration extends to the adsorption, environmental, catalytic, and biomedical applications of ZnO-organic polymer composites. Adopting a tutorial approach, the review systematically investigates and elucidates the applications of CZOPC with a comprehensive understanding of their diverse capabilities and uses.

Abstract
Most of the transition metal ions and organic dyes are toxic in nature. Therefore, their removal from water is imperative for human health. For this purpose, various types of systems have been developed to tackle either transition metal ions or organic dyes individually. A core-shell microgel system is introduced which is capable of effectively removing both types (toxic organic dyes and transition metal ions) of pollutants. A long-rod-shaped silica@poly(chitosan-N-isopropylacrylamide-methacrylic acid) S@P(CS-NIPAM-MAA) S@P(CNM) core-shell microgel system was developed by free radical precipitation polymerization method (FRPPM). S@P(CNM) was utilized as an adsorbent for extracting palladium (II) (Pd (II)) ions from water under different concentrations of S@P(CNM), several agitation times, palladium (II) ion content, and pH levels. The adsorption data of Pd (II) ions on S@P(CNM) was evaluated by various adsorption isotherms. The kinetic study was investigated by employing pseudo-2nd order (Ps2O), Elovich model (ElM), intra-particle diffusion (IPDM), and pseudo-1st order (Ps1O). Additionally, palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) were generated via in-situ reduction of adsorbed Pd (II) ions within the P(CNM) shell region of S@P(CNM). The resulting Pd NPs loaded S@P(CNM) exhibited the capability to reduce organic pollutants like methyl orange (MeO), 4-nitrophenol (4NiP), methylene blue (MeB), and Rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous medium. 0.766 min-1, 0.433 min-1, 0.682 min-1, and 1.140 min-1 were the values of pseudo 1st order rate constant (kobs) for catalytic reduction of MeB, 4NiP, MeO, and RhB respectively. The S@Pd-P(CNM) system exhibits significant catalytic potential for various organic transformations.

Abstract
Pesticides are extensively used agrochemicals across the world to control pest populations. However, irrational application of pesticides leads to contamination of various components of the environment, like air, soil, water, and vegetation, all of which build up significant levels of pesticide residues. Further, these environmental contaminants fuel objectionable human toxicity and impose a greater risk to the ecosystem. Therefore, search of methodologies having potential to detect and degrade pesticides in different environmental media is currently receiving profound global attention. Beyond the conventional approaches, Artificial Intelligence (AI) coupled with machine learning and artificial neural networks are rapidly growing branches of science that enable quick data analysis and precise detection of pesticides in various environmental components. Interestingly, nanoparticle (NP)-mediated detection and degradation of pesticides could be linked to AI algorithms to achieve superior performance. NP-based sensors stand out for their operational simplicity as well as their high sensitivity and low detection limits when compared to conventional, time-consuming spectrophotometric assays. NPs coated with fluorophores or conjugated with antibody or enzyme-anchored sensors can be used through Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectrometry, fluorescence, or chemiluminescence methodologies for selective and more precise detection of pesticides. Moreover, NPs assist in the photocatalytic breakdown of various organic and inorganic pesticides. Here, AI models are ideal means to identify, classify, characterize, and even predict the data of pesticides obtained through NP sensors. The present study aims to discuss the environmental contamination and negative impacts of pesticides on the ecosystem. The article also elaborates the AI and NP-assisted approaches for detecting and degrading a wide range of pesticide residues in various environmental and agrecultural sources including fruits and vegetables. Finally, the prevailing limitations and future goals of AI-NP-assisted techniques have also been dissected.

Abstract
A rod-like magnetic nanocomposite was successfully synthesized in this work by loading Ag and Fe3O4 nanoparticles onto the surface of the hydroxyapatite/MIL-101(Fe) metal-organic framework. Various techniques were used to investigate the crystalline nature, size, morphology, and magnetic and structural properties of the HAP/MIL-101(Fe)/Ag/Fe3O4 nanocomposite, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), BET surface area measurements, and zeta potential analysis. The results indicate that the nanocomposite sample is composed of Ag and Fe3O4 nanoparticles adhered to rod-like hydroxyapatite/MIL-101(Fe). The catalytic and antibacterial abilities of the as-prepared HAP/MIL-101(Fe)/Ag/Fe3O4 were studied. This nanocomposite was utilized as a heterogeneous catalyst for the catalytic reduction of toxic pollutants, including 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), 2-nitrophenol (2-NP), 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-NP), 4-nitroaniline (4-NA), and 2-nitroaniline (2-NA) by NaBH4 in water and at room temperature. These compounds were converted to their amine derivatives within 8-18 min with rate constant values equal to 0.2, 0.3, 0.33, and 0.47 min-1, respectively. This quaternary magnetic catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction medium using an external magnetic field and reused. The synthesized nanocomposite maintained its efficiency in reducing nitroaromatic compounds after 5 runs, showing the high stability of the catalyst. Besides, the antibacterial activity of the nanocomposite against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria was evaluated using the disk diffusion method. The inhibition zone diameter of the nanocomposite against Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, and Escherichia coli was measured to be 17, 14, and 12 mm, respectively.

Abstract
Two–dimensional (2D) metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are fascinating photocatalytic materials because of their unique physical and catalytic properties. Herein, we report a new (E)–4–(3–carboxyacrylamido) benzoic acid [ABA–MA] ligand synthesized under facile conditions. This ABA–MA ligand is further utilized to synthesize a copper-based 2D MOF via the solvothermal process. The resulting 2D MOF is characterized for morphology and electronic structural analysis using advanced techniques, such as proton nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Furthermore, 2D MOF is employed as a photocatalyst for degrading organic dyes, demonstrating the degradation/reduction of methylene blue (MeBl) dye with excellent catalytic/photodegradation activity in the absence of any photosensitizer or cocatalyst. The apparent rate constant (kap) values for the catalytic degradation/reduction of MeBl on the Cu(II)–[ABA-MA] MOF are reported to be 0.0093 min−1, 0.0187 min−1, and 0.2539 min−1 under different conditions of sunlight and NaBH4. The kinetics and stability evaluations reveal the noteworthy photocatalytic potential of the Cu(II)–[ABA–MA] MOF for wastewater treatment. This work offers new insights into the fabrication of new MOFs for highly versatile photocatalytic applications.

Abstract
The contamination of water by azo dyes is increasing rapidly due to their waste use in textile industries. These dyes are very toxic for living things. Therefore, it is very important to remove these dyes from water. Various materials are reported for this purpose. Here, the most effective system of bimetallic nanoparticles in smart polymer microgels was prepared. The microgel system of N-isopropylmethacrylamide (NMA) (monomer) and methacrylic acid (MAa) (comonomer) was synthesized by a free radical precipitation polymerization method and then bimetallic (Ag/Ni) nanoparticles were encapsulated into the P(NMA-MAa) microgels by in situ reduction of both silver and nickel salts by NaBH4 (reductant) after insertion of both (Ag+/Ni2+) ions. The P(NMA-MAa) microgels and Ag/Ni-P(NMA-MAa) hybrid microgels were characterized with FTIR, UV-vis, TGA, XRD, DLS, EDX, and STEM. The pH and temperature responsive behavior of Ag/Ni-P(NMA-MAa) was also evaluated. The catalytic efficiency of Ag/Ni-P(NMA-MAa) was assessed for degradation of methyl orange (MOr), congo red (CRe), eriochrome black T (EBlT) and methyl red (MRe) dyes under various conditions in aqueous medium. The apparent rate constant (k 0) value for MOr, CRe, EBlT and MRe was found to be 0.925 min-1, 0.486 min-1, 0.540 min-1 and 0.525 min-1 respectively. The Ag/Ni-P(NMA-MAa) was found to be an excellent recyclable catalyst.

Abstract
In the recent years, bio-functionalized noble metal doped advanced magnetics nanocomposite materials has been materialized as potential featured catalysts in diverse applications. In this connection, we report herein a novel biogenic lignin driven Au nanoparticle supported Fe3O4 composite material. The procedure is free from any harsh reducing or stabilizing agent. Morphology and structural features were assessed following different physicochemical methodologies like FT-IR, FE-SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD, VSM and ICP-OES techniques. Thereafter, the [Fe3O4/Lignin/Au] material was successfully employed in the efficient reduction of different nitroarenes in aqueous medium. The process was monitored over UV-Vis spectroscopic study. Excellent yields were achieved with a range of diverse functionalized nitroarenes within 10-45 min of reaction. The nanocatalyst was recycled 10 times without any significant loss of catalytic activity. Distinctiveness of the material's activity was validated by comparing the results in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol. Furthermore, the prepared [Fe3O4/Lignin/Au] nanocomposite system exhibited outstanding antioxidant and anticancer effects against five lung cancer cell lines, such as, BICR 3, BICR 78, CALU 1, ChaGo-K-1, and A549. Cytotoxicity assay was determined in terms of % cell viability following MTT protocol. The corresponding IC50 values were obtained as 47, 31, 19, 25, and 31 μg/mL respectively.

Abstract
Abstract
Most of the transition metal ions are toxic and their removal from water is important. For this purpose, nearly monodisperse spherical core shell microgel particles with diameter of 88 ± 3 nm have been synthesized by free radical precipitation polymerization method and characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Extraction of copper ions from water under several conditions of pH, copper ions content and core shell microgel concentrations was undertaken. Several adsorption isotherms were tested to explore the process of adsorption of copper ions on the microgel particles. Kinetics of adsorption process was examined by pseudo first order, pseudo second order, intra-particle diffusion and Elovich models. Copper ions adsorbed in shell region of core shell microgel were reduced to copper nanoparticles. The hybrid microgel was used to reduce organic pollutants such as 4-nitrophenol (4NP), methylene blue (MB), and methyl orange (MO) in aqueous medium. The value of pseudo first order rate constant for catalytic reduction of 4NP, MB, and MO was found 0.602, 0.831, and 0.874 min−1 respectively. The resultant core shell hybrid microgel system can serve as efficient catalyst for numerous other organic transformations.

Abstract
In the present article, we use an improved Flory–Rehner theory to describe the swelling behavior of copolymer microgels, where the interaction parameter is modeled by a Hill-like equation for a cooperative thermotropic transition. This description leads to very good fits of the swelling curves of the copolymer microgels at different comonomer contents (30 mol%, 50 mol% and 70 mol%) obtained by photon correlation spectroscopy. Fixed parameters, which are universally applicable for the respective monomers given in our previous work, are used to fit the swelling curves. The analysis of the swelling curves yields physically reasonable and meaningful results for the remaining adjustable parameters. The comonomer content of the statistical copolymer microgels poly(NNPAM-co-NIPAM), poly(NIPAM-co-NIPMAM) and poly(NIPMAM-co-NNPAM) is determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and is in agreement with the nominal comonomer feed used in the synthesis. To investigate the volume phase transition at a molecular level, swelling curves are also measured by Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy. The obtained swelling curves are also fitted using the Hill-like model. The fits provide physically reasonable parameters too, consistent with the results from photon correlation spectroscopy.
