RESUMEN
A rapid in situ synthesis of electrochromic covalent organic frameworks (EC-COFs) was proposed by using green electrochemical interface polymerization of N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)-1,4-benzenediamine (TPDA) and 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalaldehyde (DHBD). The synthetized TPDA-DHBD films exhibit stable polymorphic color variations under different applied potentials, which can be attributed to the redox state changes of bis(triphenylamine) and imine electroactive functional groups within the COFs skeleton. TPDA-DHBD represents markedly different electrochromisms from red to cyan due to the steric hindrance effect caused by the presence of UO2 2+, demonstrating the unique tunability of COFs materials. This work offers a new feasible idea for rapid EC-COFs synthesis and tunable EC-COFs realization.
RESUMEN
The concentrations of atmospheric pollutants PM2.5, O3, SO2, NO2, and CO together with the meteorological factors of temperature ï¼Tï¼, relative humidity ï¼RHï¼, wind speed, and other relevant data in Tangshan from 2015 to 2021 were collected to study the variation characteristics of PM2.5 and O3 at different periods in Tangshan City in the past seven years and their influencing factors, to discuss the contributions of air mass transport to PM2.5 and O3 pollution, and to reveal the synergistic influence mechanism of PM2.5 and O3 on atmospheric compound pollution by using correlation analysis and backward trajectory cluster analysis techniques. The results showed that PM2.5 concentrations in Tangshan decreased year by year from 2015 to 2021, whereas O3 concentration showed a unimodal trend, with the peak appearing in 2017. Both PM2.5 and O3 concentrations showed obvious seasonal variation trendsï¼ PM2.5 was characterized by the highest concentration in winter and the lowest concentration in summer, whereas O3 was characterized by the highest concentration in summer and the lowest concentration in winter. In addition, the diurnal variation in PM2.5 showed a bimodal distribution, with the peak occurring during the morning and evening on weekdays, and O3 showed a unimodal distribution, with the peak value appearing during the period with strong ultraviolet radiation in the afternoon. PM2.5 had a significant positive correlation with SO2, NO2, and CO, whereas O3 had a significant positive correlation with radiation and temperature. Under the different pollution conditions, PM2.5 and O3 were affected by air mass transports from different directions. Being impacted by various factors, the synergistic effect of PM2.5 and O3 on atmospheric compound pollution showed an obvious negative effect in winter, whereas there was an obvious positive effect in spring, summer, and autumn. Under the backgrounds of different pollutions, when the concentration of PM2.5 exceeded 150 µg·m-3, the synergistic effect of PM2.5 and O3 showed an obvious negative effect.
RESUMEN
Developing new electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminators with high stability, wide applicability, and strong designability is of great strategic significance to promote the ECL field to the frontier. Here, driven by the I···N bond, 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene (TFTI) and 2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazine (TMT) self-assembled into a novel halogen cocrystal (TFTI-TMT) through slow solution volatilization. Significant difference of charge density existed between the N atoms on TMT and the σ-hole of the I atoms on TFTI. Upon the induction of σ-hole effect, high-speed and spontaneous charge transferring from TMT to the σ-hole of TFTI occurred, stimulating exciting ECL signals. Besides, the σ-hole of the I atoms could capture iodine ions specifically, which blocked the original charge transfer from the N atoms to the σ-hole, causing the ECL signal of TFTI-TMT to undergo a quenching rate as high as 92.9%. Excitingly, the ECL sensing of TFTI-TMT toward I- possessed a wide linear range (10-5000 nM) and ultralow detection limit (3 nM) in a real water sample. The halogen cocrystal strategy makes σ-hole a remarkable new viewpoint of ECL luminator design and enables ECL analysis technology to contribute to addressing the environmental and health threats posed by iodide pollution.
RESUMEN
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) show potentials in prominent photoelectric responses by judicious structural design. However, from the selections of monomers and condensation reactions to the synthesis procedures, the acquisition of photoelectric COFs has to meet overmuch high conditions, limiting the breakthrough and modulation in photoelectric responses. Herein, the study reports a creative "lock-key model" based on molecular insertion strategy. A COF with suitable cavity size, TP-TBDA, is used as the host to load guests. Merely through the volatilization of mixed solution, TP-TBDA and guests can be spontaneously assembled via non-covalent interactions (NCIs) to produce molecular-inserted COFs (MI-COFs). The NCIs between TP-TBDA and guests acted as a bridge to facilitate charge transfer in MI-COFs, unlocking the photoelectric responses of TP-TBDA. By exploiting the controllability of NCIs, the MI-COFs can realize the smart modulation of photoelectric responses by simply changing the guest molecule, thus avoiding the arduous selection of monomers and condensation reactions required by conventional COFs. The construction of molecular-inserted COFs circumvents complicated procedures for achieving performance improvement and modulation, providing a promising direction to construct late-model photoelectric responsive materials.
