Abstract
In this work, Br, K-doped and cyano group-rich carbon nitride (CN) were prepared via pyrolysis of molten urea and 6-Bromopyridine-3-carbaldehyde, followed by re-calcination with potassium thiocyanate. The hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) evolution and in situ tetracycline (TC) mineralization performances of the prepared samples were studied. The optimal sample could produce 9127 μmol g-1 h-1 H2O2 from 10 vol% ethanol solution and air atmosphere, which was 10.9 times higher than that of pristine CN. With addition of 4 mg L-1 Fe2+ ions, 97.2% of TC (10 mg L-1) and 98.7% of total organic carbon were removed in 30 min under the actions of holes, hydroxyl and superoxide radicals. The high H2O2 yield and TC mineralization ratio were attributed to the increased light absorption, efficient electrons-holes separation, enhanced surface O2 adsorption (0.3878 mmol g-1), and accelerated conversion from Fe3+ to Fe2+ ions. Meanwhile, the system possessed good reusability in H2O2 evolution and TC removal. It is expected that this work can provide new ideas to design CN-based photo-Fenton system to treat wastewater.

In-situ surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy revealing the role of metal-organic frameworks on photocatalytic reaction selectivity on highly sensitive and durable Cu-CuBr substrate. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 660:669-680. [PMID: 38271803 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.01.063] [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: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
Photocatalytic reactions using copper-based nanomaterials have emerged as a new paradigm in green technology. Selective photocatalysis is very important for improving energy utilization efficiency, and in order to directional improve catalytic selectivity, it is necessary to understand the mechanism of interfacial reactions at the molecular level. Therefore, a unique bifunctional Cu-CuBr substrate is first fabricated via an electrochemical method, which overcomes the instability of traditional copper-based materials and endows high surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensitivity and photocatalytic performance and can be stored stably for more than a year. Further modification of the surface with Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) containing carboxyl functional groups can significantly tune the surface properties of the substrate. This increases the adsorption of cationic dyes to improve the SERS effect, and 10-10 M methylene blue can easily be detected with this substrate. Surprisingly, in-situ SERS monitoring of the interfacial photocatalytic dehalogenation reaction of aromatic halides through its intrinsic SERS effect reveal two competing selective reaction pathways, self-coupling and hydrogenation. Typically, the SERS spectra reveal that the latter's selectivity was greatly enhanced after MOFs modification, and the yield rate of the hydrogenated product increased from 27.6 % to 46.9 % (selectivity increased from 32.7 % to 51.5 %). This proves that the surface properties of catalysts, especially the affinity for reaction intermediates, can effectively regulate catalytic selectivity.

Guo Y, Li Y, Wang Z. Electrocatalytic hydro-dehalogenation of halogenated organic pollutants from wastewater: A critical review. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 234:119810.

Abstract
Halogenated organic pollutants are often found in wastewater effluent although it has been usually treated by advanced oxidation processes. Atomic hydrogen (H*)-mediated electrocatalytic dehalogenation, with an outperformed performance for breaking the strong carbon-halogen bonds, is of increasing significance for the efficient removal of halogenated organic compounds from water and wastewater. This review consolidates the recent advances in the electrocatalytic hydro-dehalogenation of toxic halogenated organic pollutants from contaminated water. The effect of the molecular structure (e.g., the number and type of halogens, electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups) on dehalogenation reactivity is firstly predicted, revealing the nucleophilic properties of the existing halogenated organic pollutants. The specific contribution of the direct electron transfer and atomic hydrogen (H*)-mediated indirect electron transfer to dehalogenation efficiency has been established, aiming to better understand the dehalogenation mechanisms. The analyses of entropy and enthalpy illustrate that low pH has a lower energy barrier than that of high pH, facilitating the transformation from proton to H*. Furthermore, the quantitative relationship between dehalogenation efficiency and energy consumption shows an exponential increase of energy consumption for dehalogenation efficiency increasing from 90% to 100%. Lastly, challenges and perspectives are discussed for efficient dehalogenation and practical applications.

Abstract
Electroreductive dehalogenation as an efficient and green approach has attracted much attention in pollution remediation. Herein, we have employed a shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS) technique to in situ probe the electroreductive dehalogenation process of aryl halides with thiol groups at Ag/aqueous solution interfaces. It is found that 4-bromothiophenol (BTP) and 4-chlorothiophenol (CTP) can turn into mixed products of 4,4'-biphenyldithiol (BPDT) and thiophenol (TP) as the electrode potential decreases. The conversion ratios estimated from the Raman intensity variations of C-Cl and C-Br vibrations are 44% and 58% for CTP and BTP in neutral solution, respectively. Furthermore, the quantitative analysis of benzene ring vibrations reveals a C-C cross coupling between the benzene free radical intermediate and adjacent TP product, which results in increased selectivity for biphenyl products at negative potentials.

Abstract
Probing the adlayer structures on an electrode/electrolyte interface is one of the most important tasks in modern electrochemistry for clarifying the electrochemical processes. Herein, we have combined cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy techniques to explore the potential-dependent adlayer structures on Au(111) in a room-temperature ionic liquid of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIPF6) without or with pyridine (Py). It is clearly found that the BMI+ cations strongly adsorb on the negatively charged surface with a flat-lying orientation, leaving a little space for Py adsorption. Upon increasing the potentials of the electrode, the variations of Raman band intensities and frequencies reveal that the interaction between the BMI+ cations and the Au surface becomes weak; meanwhile, the Py adsorption becomes strong, and its geometry turns from flat, tilted to vertical. Finally, BMI+ cations desorb and leave plenty of surface sites for Py adsorption in bulk solution, and a N-bonded compact Py adlayer is formed on the very positively charged surface. This causes obvious anodic peaks in cyclic voltammograms, and the peak currents increase with the square root of the scanning rate. The present work provides a fair molecular-level understanding of electrochemical interfaces and molecular adsorption of Py in ionic liquids.
