Valorization of discarded face mask for bioactive compound synthesis and photodegradation of dye. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 213:113737. [PMID: 35752328 PMCID: PMC9351616 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.113737] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2021] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
To keep COVID-19 at bay, most countries have mandated the use of face masks in public places and imposed heavy penalties for those who fail to do so. This has inadvertently created a huge demand for disposable face masks and worsened the problem of littering, where a large number of used masks are constantly discarded into the environment. As such, an efficient and innovative waste management strategy for the discarded face mask is urgently needed. This study presents the transformation of discarded face mask into catalyst termed 'mask waste ash catalyst (MWAC)' to synthesise bisindolylmethanes (BIMs), alkaloids that possess antibacterial, antioxidant and antiviral properties. Using commercially available aldehydes and indole, an excellent yield of reaction (62-94%) was achieved using the MWAC in the presence of water as the sole solvent. On the other hand, the FT-IR spectrum of MWAC showed the absorption bands at 2337 cm-1, 1415 cm-1 and 871 cm-1, which correspond to the signals of calcium oxide. It is then proposed that the calcium oxides mainly present in MWAC can protonate oxygen atoms in the carbonyl molecule of the aldehyde group, thus facilitating the nucleophile attack by indole which consequently improved the product yield. Moreover, the MWAC is also observed to facilitate the photodegradation of methylene blue with an efficiency of up to 94.55%. Our results showed the potential applications of the MWAC derived from discarded face masks as a sustainable catalyst for bioactive compound synthesis and photodegradation of dye compounds.

Abstract
The development of novel small molecule-based catalysts for organic transformations has increased noticeably in the last two decades. A very recent addition to this particular research area is cyclopropene- and cyclopropenium-based catalysts. At one point in time, particularly in the mid-20th century, much attention was focused on the structural aspects and physical properties of cyclopropene-based compounds. However, a paradigm shift was observed in the late 20th century, and the focus shifted to the synthetic utility of these compounds. In fact, a wide range of cyclopropene derivatives have been found serving as valuable synthons for the construction of carbocycles, heterocycles and other useful organic compounds. In the last few years, the catalytic applications of cyclopropene/cyclopropenium-based compounds have been uncovered and many synthetic protocols have been developed using cyclopropene-based compounds as organocatalysts. Therefore, the main objective of this review is to highlight recent developments in the catalytic applications of cyclopropene-based small molecules in different areas of organocatalysis such as phase-transfer catalysis (PTC), Brønsted base catalysis, hydrogen-bond donor catalysis, nucleophilic carbene catalysis, and electrophotocatalysis developed within the past two decades.

Abstract
An amphiphilic chromogenic probe based on an oxidized di(indolyl)arylmethane backbone has been utilized for visual detection of both Cu2+ (detection limit = 8.5 ppb) and Hg2+ (detection limit = 10.2 ppb) ions via mutually independent sensing pathways. The Cu2+ ion binds to the carboxylate ends (donor site) and induces a color change from orange to yellow in the aqueous medium, while coordinating Hg2+ at the bisindolyl moiety (acceptor site) can result in the formation of a red-colored solution. Interestingly, by selecting the proper excitation channel, we can specifically excite either the monomer species or nanoaggregates. The addition of Hg2+ enhances the monomer fluorescence, while Cu2+ induces quenching. However, in both cases, metal-ion coordination triggers dissociation of a preformed self-assembled structure. Further, the in-situ-formed Cu(II) complex was utilized for rapid, on-location detection of food-borne pathogens, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) in contaminated food items and water (detection limit = 52 CFU·mL-1). E. coli induces reduction of Cu2+ to Cu+ and transforms the yellow-colored solution into an orange-colored solution. Finally, low-cost, reusable paper strips were designed as an eco-friendly, sustainable strategy to detect bacterial pathogens.

Abstract
The catalytic application of the bis(amino)cyclopropenium ion has been investigated in conjugate addition reactions. The hydrogen atom, which is attached to the cyclopropene ring of bis(amino)cyclopropenium salts, is moderately acidic and can potentially serve as a hydrogen-bond donor catalyst in some organic transformations. This hypothesis has been successfully realized in the 1,6-conjugate addition reactions of p-quinone methides with various nucleophiles such as indole, 2-naphthol, thiols, phenols, and so forth. The spectroscopic studies (NMR and UV-vis) as well as the deuterium isotope labeling studies clearly revealed that the hydrogen atom (C-H) that is present in the cyclopropene ring of the catalyst is indeed solely responsible for catalyzing these transformations. In addition, these studies also strongly indicate that the C-H hydrogen of the cyclopropene ring activates the carbonyl group of the p-quinone methide through hydrogen bonding.
