Abstract
The main goal of this article is to discuss the expansion of click chemistry. A new catalyst composed of CuO nanoparticles embedded in Zn-MOF with the ligand 2,4,6-tris(4-carboxyphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine (H3L) is presented. The incorporation of CuO nanoparticles into the Zn-MOF structure led to desirable morphology and catalytic properties. The designed catalyst was evaluated for its catalytic role in the multicomponent reaction and copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) for preparation of triazole rings with 80-91% yield. The catalyst demonstrated an appealing architecture and exhibited robustness, high efficiency, and environmental friendliness. Characterization of the catalyst was performed using various techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopes (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), elemental mapping, and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results suggest that this novel catalyst has the potential to be a valuable tool in the development of new synthetic approaches for a wide range of applications.

Abstract
The anomeric effect highlights the significant influence of the functional group and reaction conditions on oxidation-reduction. This article successfully investigates the anomeric effect in the synthesis of picolinate and picolinic acid derivatives through a multi-component reaction involving 2-oxopropanoic acid or ethyl 2-oxopropanoate, ammonium acetate, malononitrile, and various aldehydes. To facilitate this process, we employed UiO-66(Zr)-N(CH2PO3H2)2 as a novel nanoporous heterogeneous catalyst. The inclusion of phosphorous acid tags on the UiO-66(Zr)-N(CH2PO3H2)2 offers the potential for synthesizing picolinates at ambient temperature.

Abstract
Combining two different metals for the synthesis of a metal-organic framework (MOF) is a smart strategy for the architecture of new porous materials. Herein, a bimetal-organic framework (bimetal-MOFs) based on Fe and Co metals was synthesized. Then, phosphorous acid tags were decorated on bimetal-MOFs via a postmodification method as a new porous acidic functionalized catalyst. This catalyst was used for the synthesis of pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyridine derivatives as suitable drug candidates. The present study provides new insights into the architecture of novel porous heterogeneous catalysts based on a bimetal-organic framework (bimetal-MOFs). The type of final structures of catalyst and pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyridine derivatives were determined using different techniques such as fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), SEM-elemental mapping, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm, Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH), thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), 1H NMR, and 13C NMR.

Abstract
The carbonous-based nanocomposites of CoCr layered double hydroxide (LDH) with graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were prepared. The successful synthesis of the CoCr LDH in hydrotalcite crystalline structure was deduced from the pattern obtained from X-ray diffraction, and the chemical composition of its surface was checked by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The prosperous decorating of LDH on the sheets of rGO and GO was authenticated by the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis and micrographs of scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy. The photo-assisted sonocatalytic activity of the prepared nanocomposites was appraised for the decomposition of dimethyl phthalate (DMP) as a plasticizer. The highest decomposition efficiency of 100% was obtained in the existence of CoCr LDH/rGO nanocomposite (0.5 g/L) during 20 min of reaction time via photo-assisted sonocatalysis. The rGO improved the catalytic activity of the CoCr LDH by increasing the specific surface area from 1.2 m2/g to 4.5 m2/g and reducing the band gap from 1.7 eV to 1.3 eV. Moreover, the results of the colony-forming unit method endorsed antibacterial property improvement of the CoCr LDH via hybridizing with rGO. The results of this research provide an optimistic perspective for applying carbonous-based nanocomposites of CoCr LDH as a novel catalyst with antibacterial properties in photo-assisted sonocatalytic processes.

Abstract
Herein, we report the design and synthesis of Co-MOF-71/imidazole/SO3H as a novel porous catalyst with sulfonic acid tags. The structure and morphology of the catalyst were investigated using various techniques such as Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), SEM elemental mapping, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Barret-Joyner-Halenda, and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. Co-MOF-71/imidazole/SO3H was studied in the preparation of novel pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines under mild and green conditions via a cooperative vinylogous anomeric-based oxidation. A wide range of mono and bis pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines were synthesized with good to excellent yields (65-82%). A hot filtration test for the heterogeneous nature of the catalyst indicated the high stability of the prepared catalyst. The recyclability of Co-MOF-71/imidazole/SO3H is another advantage of the present methodology. The structures of the final products were confirmed using FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopic techniques.

Abstract
In the current study, we synthesized a new nanomagnetic metal-organic framework Fe3O4@MIL-53(Al)-N(CH2PO3)2 and characterized it using various techniques. This nanomagnetic metal-organic framework was used for the synthesis of a wide range of nicotinonitrile derivatives as suitable drug candidates by a four-component reaction of 3-oxo-3-phenylpropanenitrile or 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-oxopropanenitrile, ammonium acetate (NH4OAc), acetophenone derivatives, and various aldehydes including those bearing electron-donating, electron-withdrawing, and halogen groups, which afforded desired products (27 samples) via a cooperative vinylogous anomeric-based oxidation (CVABO) mechanism under solvent-free conditions in excellent yields (68-90%) and short reaction times (40-60 min). Increasing the surface-to-volume ratio, easy separation of the catalyst using an external magnet, and high chemical and temperature stability are the advantages of the described nanomagnetic metal-organic frameworks.

Abstract
Nowadays, the removal of pharmaceutical contaminants from water resources and wastewater is of great importance due to environmental and health issues. Over the decades, various methods have been reported to remove pollutants from wastewater. Among the developed methods, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have received significant attention from researchers. In this study, we report the one-pot synthesis of graphene hydrogel-metal (GH-M, M: Co, Ni, Cu) nanocomposites via the combination of polyol and hydrothermal methods. The structure of the resulting nanocomposites was examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and Raman spectroscopy methods. Afterward, as-prepared GH-Cu, GH-Co, and GH-Ni nanocomposites were used to prepare cathodes for the electro-Fenton (EF) process to remove rifampicin (RIF) from polluted water. The effect of operational parameters, including current density (mA/cm2), initial pH, initial RIF concentration (mg/L), and process time (min) was investigated via response surface methodology (RSM). The optimal values for current density, pH, initial RIF concentration, and process time using GH-Ni as cathode were 30 mA/cm2, 5, 30 mg/L, and 90 min, respectively. The results at optimal values showed that the maximum RIF removal efficiency for GH-Cu, GH-Co, and GH-Ni cathodes was 90.47, 92.60, and 93.69%, respectively. Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET), atomic force microscopy (AFM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) analyses were performed to investigate the performance of the cathodes for the RIF removal. Finally, total organic carbon (TOC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) analyses were performed for further investigation of the RIF removal from polluted water. The results claimed that one-pot synthesized GH-M cathodes can effectively remove RIF from polluted water through EF process.

Abstract
Nowadays, the entry of organic compounds into water resources is one of the leading global concerns due to the lack of water resources and rapid population growth. In this research, anodic oxidation (AO) method was used to remove 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) from aqueous solutions via Ni/RuO2 and Ti/IrO2-TiO2-RuO2 electrodes as cathode and anode, respectively. For this purpose, the characterization analysis of the electrodes, including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, and atomic force microscopy were performed. The electrochemical performance of the anode was investigated via cyclic voltammetry analysis. Then, the effect of operational variables, including applied current (mA), initial pH of the solution, initial 5-FU concentration (mg/L), and process time (min) on the 5-FU removal efficiency under the AO process was evaluated via artificial neural network (ANN) modeling. The results revealed that the maximum 5-FU removal efficiency was 96.96%. The applied current intensity, pH, initial 5-FU concentration, and process time were 300 mA, 5, 20 mg/L, and 140 min, respectively. Moreover, the investigation of 5-FU removal by-products and mineralization efficiency of the AO process was carried out via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and total organic carbon analysis, respectively. The total organic carbon mineralization efficiency was 84.80% after 6 h of reaction time. The reusability and stability of the Ti/IrO2-TiO2-RuO2 anode on 5-FU removal efficiency were measured and showed an approximately 5% decay in 5-FU removal efficiency after eight consecutive runs. The overall results and analysis confirmed this method is capable of removing 5-FU through Ti/IrO2-TiO2-RuO2 anode and Ni/RuO2 cathode from aqueous medium.

Abstract
In this work, the fluoxetine (FLX) removal has been studied via the anodic oxidation (AO) process. Anode electrodes were Ti/RuO2, Ti/RuO2-IrO2, and Ti/RuO2-IrO2-SnO2, and cathode electrodes were graphite and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The performances of electrodes were compared in terms of FLX removal efficiency. As a result, Ti/RuO2-IrO2-SnO2 and CNTs were the optimal anode and cathode, respectively. The properties of the optimal electrodes were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. Cyclic voltammetry analysis was performed to study the electrochemical behavior of electrodes. The effect of current intensity (mA), initial pH, initial FLX concentration (mg/L) and process time (min) on the FLX removal efficiency was investigated and the response surface methodology was applied for the optimization of the AO process. The results showed that at current intensity, pH, initial FLX concentration and process time of 500 mA, 6, 25 mg/L and 160 min, maximum FLX removal efficiency was observed, which was 96.25%. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), and total organic carbon (TOC) analysis was determined to evaluate the intermediates, and mineralization efficiency. The TOC removal efficiency was reached 81.51% after 6 h under optimal experimental conditions, indicating the successful removal of the FLX.

Abstract
In this study, the heterogeneous electro-Fenton method was used to remove Paclitaxel as an antineoplastic medicine. The cathode based on three-dimensional graphene (3DG) was applied as a gas diffusion electrode. The potential of five eco-friendly and recyclable iron minerals derived from nature (Magnetite, Siderite, Hematite, Limonite, and Pyrite) was investigated. Among the applied iron minerals, Pyrite showed the best, and Magnetite and Siderite showed good catalytic activity at pH 3.0. The current intensity of 300 mA, pHi 7.0, Paclitaxel concentration of 3 mg L-1, amount of Pyrite 4.5 g L-1, and time of 120 min was the optimum condition of the process with the removal efficiency of 99.13% in the presence of Pyrite. Repeating the experiments eight times revealed the reusability of the prepared 3DG as a cathode. Also, using radical scavengers indicated the principal role of the hydroxyl radicals (OH) in the treatment process. Analysis of total organic carbon reached 77.64% mineralization of 3 mg L-1 Paclitaxel at 360 min. Finally, ten by-products of small molecules were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry device.

Abstract
Phyco-remediation of dyestuffs in textile wastewaters is of economic, industrial, and environmental importance. We evaluated the remediation of the textile dye, Direct Green 6 (DG6), by Spirulina platensis, and investigated the novel possibility that DG6 treatment enhances production of the biopolymer, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB). We showed that both live and dead cells of Spirulina were capable of DG6 remediation, but live cells could be re-used with no loss of remediation efficiency. Furthermore, DG6 remediation by live cells resulted in increased algal biomass and trichome lengths, and stimulated production of valuable metabolites, including PHB, antioxidants, carbohydrates and pigments (phycobilins and astaxanthin). We determined the optimal conditions for DG6 remediation and an artificial neural network (ANN) accurately modeled the experimental data and predicted the concentration of dye as the most and algal turbidity as the least important parameters for DG6 removal efficiency. A DG6 concentration of 60 mg L-1 resulted in the highest simultaneous co-production of PHB (12.7 ± 1.7% DW) and increase of astaxanthin (194%), carotenoids (50%), phenol (51%), carbohydrates (27%) total phycobilin (43%), together with the enhancement of biomass and trichome lengths (95%). Oxidative stress indices and enzyme activities such as peroxidases and laccase (involved in dye removal/antioxidant functions) were also increased by dye dosage. On the basis of our results, we propose that S. platensis may use DG6 dye as a nitrogen/carbon source for co-accumulation of valuable bioplastic and metabolites.

Abstract
In this paper, the MIL-53(Al)-NH2 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) was prepared based on the anodic electrosynthesis under green conditions. The anodic electrosynthesis as an environmentally friendly procedure was performed in the aqueous solution, room temperature, atmospheric pressure, and in the short reaction time (30 min). Also, the employed procedure was accomplished without the need for the ex-situ salt and base/probase additives as cation source and ligand activating agent at the constant current mode (10.0 mA cm-2). The electrosynthesized MOFs was functionalized with phosphorus acid tags as a novel mesoporous catalyst. This mesoporous catalyst was successfully employed for synthesis of new series (N-methyl-pyrrol)-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines by one-pot condensation reaction of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-amine, 3-(1-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile and various aromatic aldehydes (mono, bis and tripodal). This catalyst proceeded the organic synthetic reaction via a cooperative vinylogous anomeric based oxidation mechanism with a marginal decreasing its catalytic activity after recycling and reusability.

Abstract
A metal-organic framework (MOF) with sulfonic acid tags as a novel mesoporous catalyst was synthesized. The precursor of Zr-UiO-66-PDC was synthesized both via chemical and electrochemical methods. Then, zirconium-based mesoporous metal-organic framework [Zr-UiO-66-PDC-SO3H]Cl was prepared by reaction of Zr-UiO-66-PDC and SO3HCl. The structure of [Zr-UiO-66-PDC-SO3H]Cl was confirmed by FT-IR, PXRD, FE-SEM, TEM, BET, EDX, and Mapping analysis. This mesoporous [Zr-UiO-66-PDC-SO3H]Cl was successfully applied for the synthesis of dicyanomethylene pyridine derivatives via condensation of various aldehyde, 2-aminoprop-1-ene-1,1,3-tricarbonitrile and malononitrile. At the electrochemical section, a green electrochemical method has successfully employed for rapid synthesis of the zirconium-based mesoporous metal-organic framework UiO-66-PDC at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The synthesized UiO-66-PDC has a uniform cauliflower-like structure with a 13.5 nm mean pore diameter and 1081.6 m2 g-1 surface area. The described catalyst [Zr-UiO-66-PDC-SO3H]Cl was also employed for the convergent paired electrochemical synthesis of dihydropyridine derivatives as an environmentally friendly technique under constant current at 1.0 mA cm-2 in an undivided cell. The proposed method proceeds with moderate to good yields for the model via a cooperative vinylogous anomeric based oxidation.

Abstract
In the present study, heterogeneous electro-Fenton (EF) process was applied to remove the sulfasalazine (SU) pharmaceutical from aqueous solutions. In the first part, 3D graphene loaded with Fe@Fe2O3 core-shell nanowires (Fe@Fe2O3/3D-GO) was used as a cathode electrode in the EF process. Graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized for the synthesis of 3D graphene nanocomposites using the improved Hummers' method and subsequently 3D graphene synthesized by the hydrothermal method using glycine. Finally, Fe@Fe2O3/3D-GO composite was synthesized and its properties were assessed by Scanning electron microscopy, Atomic force microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction methods. Then, the cathode electrode was prepared using the resulting composite and its performance was evaluated using Cyclic Voltammetry analysis. In the final part of this work, the Fe@Fe2O3/3D-GO electrode was used as the cathode electrode in the heterogeneous EF process to remove SU from aqueous solutions. The effect of operating parameters such as applied current (mA), initial pH of solution, initial pharmaceutical concentration (mg L-1) and process time (min) on pharmaceutical removal efficiency under heterogeneous EF process was investigated by response surface methodology. The results showed that the optimum values for applied current, pH, initial pharmaceutical concentration and electrolysis time were respectively 300 mA, 7, 30 mg L-1 and 100 min, resulting 99.60% of SU removal. Finally, the intermediates of SU degradation were determined by Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis and the amount of mineralization was determined by total organic carbon analysis. About 5.2% drop in the SU removal efficiency was observed within 8 operational runs.

Abstract
Telomeres are repetitive nucleotide sequences that together with the associated sheltrin complex protect the ends of chromosomes and maintain genomic stability. Evidences from various organisms suggests that several factors influence telomere length regulation, such as telomere binding proteins, telomere capping proteins, telomerase, and DNA replication enzymes. Recent studies suggest that micronutrients, such as vitamin D, folate and vitamin B12, are involved in telomere biology and cellular aging. In particular, vitamin D is important for a range of vital cellular processes including cellular differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis. As a result of the multiple functions of vitamin D it has been speculated that vitamin D might play a role in telomere biology and genomic stability. In this study, our main goal is investigating the relationship between telomerase enzyme and vitamin D. Findings of this study suggest that higher vitamin D concentrations, which are easily modifiable through nutritional supplementation, are associated with longer LTL, which underscores the potentially beneficial effects of this hormone on aging and age-related diseases. Vitamin D may reduce telomere shortening through anti-inflammatory and anti-cell proliferation mechanisms. Significant Low levels of telomerase activity create short telomeres, which in turn signal exit from the cell cycle resulting in cell senescence and apoptosis. In follow-up examination, the patients who remained vitamin D deficient tended to have shorter telomeres than those patients whose 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels were depleted. Increasing 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in patients with SLE may be beneficial in maintaining telomere length and preventing cellular aging. Moreover, anti-telomere antibody levels may be a promising biomarker of SLE status and disease activity.

The Bi-PCPs was then reacted with phosphorous acid to produce a novel polymer PCPs(Bi)N(CH2PO3H2)2 which is shown to act as an efficient and recyclable catalyst. The mentioned catalyst was applied for the efficient synthesis of new mono and bis naphthoquinone-based salts of piperidine and/or piperazine via the reaction of hennotannic acid with various aldehydes, piperidine and/or piperazine, respectively. The structure of the resulting mono and bis substituted piperazine or piperidine-based naphthoquinone salts was thoroughly characterized spectroscopically. The electrochemical behavior of the products was also investigated. The presented protocol has the advantages of excellent yields (82-95%), short reaction times (4-30 min) and simple work-up.

Abstract
Carbazoles and imidazole represent two important classes of heterocycles which exhibit diverse biological activities such as antitumor properties. In this study, imidazole (C1-C3) and carbazole (C4 and C5) derivatives were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against three human cancer cell lines namely, MCF7 (human breast cancer), HT29 (human colon cancer), and HeLa (human cervical cancer). Carbazole derivatives (C4 and C5) with IC50 < 10 µM showed greater cytotoxic effect than imidazole derivatives (C1-C3). Furthermore, all compounds exhibited better anticancer activity against MCF-7 than other two cell lines (HT-29, HeLa) and compound C4 was the most potent compound with the IC50 values of 2.5, 5.4 and 4.0 µM, against MCF-7, Hela and HT-29 cell lines, respectively. Physicochemical properties of compounds were calculated and their correlation with the IC50 values on MCF-7 cell line investigated. Surface area and polarizability of compounds showed good correlation by R2 = 0.8396 and R2 = 0.834, respectively. Docking studies of these compounds were also performed on the DNA as proposed target to comprehend their binding interactions and binding energies. The docking energy of compounds ranged from - 11.32 to -13.48 kcal/mol. Compound C3 with energy of -13.48 kcal/mol had the highest docking energy. Docking results indicated that these compounds (C1-C5) had strong affinity in binding to the DNA.

Abstract
Undoped and europium (III)-doped ZnO nanoparticles were prepared by a sonochemical method. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. The crystalline sizes of undoped and 3% Eu-doped ZnO were found to be 16.04 and 8.22nm, respectively. The particle size of Eu-doped ZnO nanoparticles was much smaller than that of pure ZnO. The synthesized nanocatalysts were used for the sonocatalytic degradation of Acid Red 17. Among the Eu-doped ZnO catalysts, 3% Eu-doped ZnO nanoparticles showed the highest sonocatalytic activity. The effects of various parameters such as catalyst loading, initial dye concentration, pH, ultrasonic power, the effect of oxidizing agents, and the presence of anions were investigated. The produced intermediates of the sonocatalytic process were monitored by GC-Mass (GC-MS) spectrometry.

The synthesized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as a multi-functional heterogeneous and nanoporous catalyst were used for the synthesis of N-amino-2-pyridone and pyrano [2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives via reaction of ethyl cyanoacetate or ethyl acetoacetate, hydrazine hydrate, malononitrile, and various aldehydes. The final step of the reaction mechanism was preceded by a cooperative vinylogous anomeric-based oxidation. Recycle and reusability of the described catalyst MIL-101(Cr)-N(CH2PO3H2)2 were also investigated.
