RESUMO
Heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are concerned pollutants with carcinogenic toxicity, which exist universally in various environmental matrices and have great harm to environmental and human health. In present work, magnetic resorcinol-formaldehyde composites (Fe3O4@SiO2@R-F) were fabricated via aldol condensation reaction under alkaline condition. The prepared magnetic materials were examined and analyzed with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and other related instruments. The Fe3O4@SiO2@R-F composites were utilized to develop an efficient magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) method for extracting six heteropolyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from environmental water samples including carbazole (CB), 7-methylquinoline (7-MQL), 9-methylcarbazole (9-MCB), dibenzothiophene (DBT), 4-methyldibenzothiophene (4-MDBT), and 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT). The analytes were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet variable wavelength detector (HPLC-VWD). The main factors affecting MSPE were optimized. With the optimal parameters, 9-MCB and 4-MDBT have good linearity over the concentration range of 0.1-300 µg L-1, and 7-MQL, CB, DBT and 4,6-DMDBT have good linearity over the concentration range of 0.5-300 µg L-1. The limits of detection were over the concentration range of 0.012-0.031 µg L-1. This method was successfully employed to measure real waters, and the spiked recoveries ranged from 89.4% to 99.9%. The results confirmed that the developed method was reliable, robust and could be employed as a usefully alternate way for analyzing such pollutants in waters.
RESUMO
Estrogens and bisphenols are typical endocrine disruptors (EDs) that pose a potential hazard to the human body due to their widespread presence in aqueous environments. In this study, a ß-cyclodextrin porous crosslinked polymer (ß-CD-PCP) was prepared in-situ on a glass fiber surface by a nucleophilic substitution reaction. An effective and sensitive solid phase microextraction method using functionalized glass fiber with ß-CD-PCP coating as the adsorbent was established for the detection of 11 EDs in a water environment. The ß-CD-PCP was in-situ prepared on a glass fiber surface by a nucleophilic substitution reaction. The ß-CD-PCP successfully separated five estrogens (ESTs) and six bisphenols (BPs) through hydrophobic and π-π interactions. The conditions affecting extraction were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the ESTs obtained a high enrichment effect (1795-2328), low limits of detection (0.047 µg L-1) and a good linearity range (0.2-15.0 µg L-1). Furthermore, the spiked recoveries of analyte ESTs in aqueous environments were between 82.9-115.7 %. The results indicated that the prepared functionalized glass fibers exhibited good adsorption properties, and the established analytical method was reliable for monitoring trace ESTs and BPs in aqueous environments.

4-Carboxyphenylboronic acid was used as the single precursor to facilely prepare fluorescent carbon quantum dots by one-step solvothermal method. The as-obtained carbon dots (CDs) exhibited highly selective and sensitive for benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), and may be a splendid sensor for sensing BaP. The principle was that the as-prepared CDs could form a complex with BaP through hydrophobic interaction which causes the decrease of fluorescence intensity of CDs by static quenching principle. The constructed ï¬uorescent sensor exhibited excellent linearity ranged from 0.002 to 0.06 µg mL-1 and provided a low limit of detection of 0.16 ng mL-1. The experimental results showed that this ï¬uorescent sensor resulted in simplicity, rapidness, low cost, short analytical time, and high sensitivity and stability. Validation with real water samples endowed the sensor high reliability and feasibility for BaP determination in practical application in various samples.

RESUMO
In present study, reductive graphene oxide and silver nanoparticles co-comodified TiO2 nanotube arrays were prepared, and which was investigated to degrade tetrabromobisphenol A. The arrays co-modified with silver nanoparticles and reductive graphene oxide prepared by electrodeposition method exhibited good photoelectrocatalytic degradative activity for tetrabromobisphenol A, and the degradation efficiency reached 99.6% within 80â¯min. The synergistic effect of high photoresponse of Ag nanoparticles with their high capture ability for photogenerated electrons and the extended wavelength absorption range of reductive graphene oxide resulted in the highest degradation efficiencies. Degradation is postulated to follow a stepwise reductive debromination mechanism.

The understanding of crystal stepwise transformation is very important to enclose the "black box" in the preparation of crystal materials. In this work, different structural intermediates were isolated prior to the formation of the final alkali earth coordination polymers (CPs) during the preparation of three pairs of alkali earth CPs through solvothermal method and convenient oil-bath reactions. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated the structural transformation from a 0â D to 1â D inorganic connectivity for the Ca-CPs and Sr-CPs, but a 1â D to 0â D inorganic connectivity for Ba-CPs, involving the breakage/formation of chemical bonds in the reaction solutions. Further analyses indicated that these two different structural transformation pathways are determined by the deprotonation of organic acid, competitive balance between the inorganic and organic connectivity, and the twist of the linker. FT-IR spectra, thermogravimetric and luminescence behaviors agree with their structural characteristics.
RESUMO
Polyamidoamine dendrimer decorated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by Michael addition with methyl acrylate and amidation with ethylenediamine. The decorated magnetic particles were utilized as an effective adsorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction of tetrabromobisphenol A and 4-nonylphenol at trace levels from environmental water samples. A number of parameters such as generation number, ionic strength, adsorbent dosage, eluent, adsorption time, elution volume, elution time, pH, humic acid and sample volume were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, a wide linearity was achieved in the range of 0.1-500⯵gâ¯L-1 of the analytes with the correlation coefficients (R2) of 0.9985-0.9995. The limits of detection were approximately 0.011⯵gâ¯L-1 of tetrabromobisphenol A and 0.017⯵gâ¯L-1 of 4-nonylphenol. Satisfactory average recoveries of the analytes ranged from 93.2% to 101.1%. The results indicated that the decorated magnetic nanoparticles can be suitable for extraction of phenols from environmental water samples. The proposed method was sensitive, effective, practical and robust for the determination of tetrabromobisphenol A and 4-nonylphenol in environmental water samples.
RESUMO
In this work, two 1-carboxymethyl-1-methyl-pyrrolidinium bromides (N-methylpyrrolidine betaine hydrobromides) with the stoichiometry of betaine:hydrobromic acid as 1:1 and 2:1, denoted as CMPRHBr-I and CMPRHBr-II, respectively, were prepared and crystallographically determined. The large difference in these two structures is the type of hydrogen bonds, resulting in the different thermal stability. A strong OHâ¯Br hydrogen bond was observed in CMPRHBr-I, whereas Oâ¯Hâ¯O hydrogen bond in CMPRHBr-II. Both these two crystals can mutually transform by changing the pH value of the aqueous solution. Vibrational spectroscopic studies shows that these two structures can be easily distinguished by the characteristic bands such as νCO stretching vibration and the D-type bands. Our studies indicate that it should be cautious of the structural change as this type of organic salts was purified and recrystallized.
