RESUMEN

Neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) are extensively utilized globally because of their efficient and broad-spectrum properties. However, their residues are also extensively distributed in the environment. Herein, MIL-101-SO3Na with abundant -NH- and sulfonate groups was synthesized via chloromethylation and nucleophilic substitution postmodification strategies and used to extract NNIs via solid-phase extraction. MIL-101-SO3Na was enhanced by introducing C-H···N hydrogen bonds to strengthen interaction forces and -SO3Na groups to adjust surface charge and enhance electrostatic attraction. This modification and the substantial specific surface area (998 m2·g-1) of the metal-organic framework markedly enhanced the enrichment efficiency of MIL-101. The proposed method based on MIL-101-SO3Na exhibited a minimal detection threshold (0.04-0.87 ng·L-1), an extensive linear spectrum (1-2000 ng·L-1), and notable accuracy (a variation of 3.02-11.8%) in water and drink samples. NNI concentrations between 0.25 and 24.2 ng·L-1 in fruit juice and tea samples were accurately identified using the proposed method, demonstrating its feasibility in practical applications. The postmodification of MIL-101-SO3Na is an exceptional and promising approach for the sensitive detection of ultratrace NNI levels in complex matrices.

RESUMEN

While atomically precise metal nanoclusters (NCs) with unique structures and reactivity are very promising in catalysis, the spatial resistance caused by the surface ligands and structural instability poses significant challenges. In this work, Au25(Cys)18 NCs are encapsulated in multivariate metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to afford Au25@M-MOF-74 (M = Zn, Ni, Co, Mg). By the MOF confinement, the Au25 NCs showcase highly enhanced activity and stability in the intramolecular cascade reaction of 2-nitrobenzonitrile. Notably, the interaction between the metal nodes in M-MOF-74 and Au25(Cys)18 is able to suppress the free vibration of the surface ligands on the Au25 NCs and thereby improve the accessibility of Au sites; meanwhile, the stronger interactions lead to higher electron density and core expansion within Au25(Cys)18. As a result, the activity exhibits the trend of Au25@Ni-MOF-74 > Au25@Co-MOF-74 > Au25@Zn-MOF-74 > Au25@Mg-MOF-74, highlighting the crucial roles of microenvironment modulation around the Au25 NCs by interaction between the surface ligands and MOF hosts.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Environmental endocrine disruptors (EEDs) are a class of new pollutants that are diffusely used in the medical industry and animal husbandry. In view of toxicity concerns, elevated levels of EEDs in the environment and food, which cause potential harm to human beings and ecosystems, must be monitored. Determination of EEDs contaminants to ensure environment and food safety has became a major concern worldwide, it is also a challenging task because of their trace level and probable matrices interference. Thus, developing rapid adsorption and efficient analysis methods for EEDs is apparently necessary. RESULTS: A magnetic conjugated micro-porous polymer (Fe3O4@TbDt) was designed and synthesized, which was endowed with large specific surface area, rich functional groups and magnetic responsiveness. The material showed high extraction efficiency for EEDs via magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE). The quantum chemistry calculations showed the adsorption mechanism of Fe3O4@TbDt on EEDs mainly included electrostatic interactions, van der waals forces (N-H … π interaction, C-H … π interaction), and multiple hydrogen bonds. Finally, a trace analysis method for nine EEDs was established combined with HPLC-MS/MS under optimized MSPE conditions. The method showed a good linearity (R2 ≥ 0.996), low limits of detection (0.25-5.1 ng L-1), high precision (RSD of 1.1-8.2 %, n = 6). The applicability of this method was investigated by analyzing four water samples and two dairy products, and satisfactory recovery rates (82.1-100.7 %) were obtained. The proposed method showed the potential for the analysis of EEDs residues in food and environmental samples. SIGNIFICANCE: The developed MSPE method based on conjugated micro-porous polymers (CMPs) is simple, green, and efficient compared to existing techniques. The application of CMPs provides a new idea for preparing versatile sample pre-treatment materials. What's more, this work has certain reference value for addressing of EEDs residues in the environment and food.

RESUMEN

Organic transformation by light-driven catalysis, especially, photocatalysis and photothermal catalysis, denoted as photo(thermal) catalysis, is an efficient, green, and economical route to produce value-added compounds. In recent years, owing to their diverse structure types, tunable pore sizes, and abundant active sites, metal-organic framework (MOF)-based photo(thermal) catalysis has attracted broad interest in organic transformations. In this review, we provide a comprehensive and systematic overview of MOF-based photo(thermal) catalysis for organic transformations. First, the general mechanisms, unique advantages, and strategies to improve the performance of MOFs in photo(thermal) catalysis are discussed. Then, outstanding examples of organic transformations over MOF-based photo(thermal) catalysis are introduced according to the reaction type. In addition, several representative advanced characterization techniques used for revealing the charge reaction kinetics and reaction intermediates of MOF-based organic transformations by photo(thermal) catalysis are presented. Finally, the prospects and challenges in this field are proposed. This review aims to inspire the rational design and development of MOF-based materials with improved performance in organic transformations by photocatalysis and photothermal catalysis.

RESUMEN

While metal nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated their great potential in catalysis, introducing chiral microenvironment around metal NPs to achieve efficient conversion and high enantioselectivity remains a long-standing challenge. In this work, tiny Rh NPs, modified by chiral diene ligands (Lx) bearing diverse functional groups, are incorporated into a covalent organic framework (COF) for the asymmetric 1,4-addition reactions between arylboronic acids and nitroalkenes. Though Rh NPs hosted in the COF are inactive, decorating Rh NPs with Lx creates the active Rh-Lx interface and induces high activity. Moreover, chiral microenvironment modulation around Rh NPs by altering the groups on chiral diene ligands greatly optimizes the enantioselectivity (up to 95.6% ee). Mechanistic investigations indicate that the formation of hydrogen-bonding interaction between Lx and nitroalkenes plays critical roles in the resulting enantioselectivity. This work highlights the significance of chiral microenvironment modulation around metal NPs by chiral ligand decoration for heterogeneous asymmetric catalysis.

RESUMEN

Similar to clinically applied thermal ablation techniques, the cellular necrosis that occurs during photothermal tumor therapy (PTT) can induce inflammatory response, severely compromising the therapeutic efficacy and clinical translation of the PTT. Inspired by the remarkable ROS-scavenging activity and high photothermal efficiency of molybdenum-based polyoxometalate (POM) and the immunostimulatory effect of cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs), a NIR-responsive and injectable DNA-mediated hybrid hydrogel (CDN-POM) has been developed. The hydrogels have superior photothermal efficiency (43.41%) to POM, impressive anti-inflammatory capability and prolonged intratumoral CDN-releasing behavior, thus enabling synergistic anti-tumor therapeutic outcomes. Meanwhile, local treatment induced by CDN-POM hydrogels displays minimal side effects on normal tissue. Taking advantage of the high phototherapeutic effect, ROS-scavenging activity and sustained CDN release of CDN-POM hydrogels, a novel combined approach that integrates photothermal therapy and immunotherapy of breast tumor is successfully pioneered.

RESUMEN

Photocatalytic overall water splitting holds great promise for solar-to-hydrogen conversion. Maintaining charge separation is a major challenge but is key to unlocking this potential. Here we discovered a metal-organic framework (MOF) that shows suppressed charge recombination. This MOF features electronically insulated Zn2+ nodes and two chemically equivalent, yet crystallographically independent, linkers. These linkers behave as an electron donor-acceptor pair with non-overlapping band edges. Upon photoexcitation, the MOF undergoes a dynamic excited-state structural twist, inducing orbital rearrangements that forbid radiative relaxation and thereby promote a long-lived charge-separated state. As a result, the MOF achieves visible-light photocatalytic overall water splitting, in the presence of co-catalysts, with an apparent quantum efficiency of 3.09 ± 0.32% at 365 nm and shows little activity loss in 100 h of consecutive runs. Furthermore, the dynamic excited-state structural twist is also successfully extended to other photocatalysts. This strategy for suppressing charge recombination will be applicable to diverse photochemical processes beyond overall water splitting.

RESUMEN

The electrochemical reduction of CO2 to high-value carbon-based chemicals provides a sustainable approach to achieving an artificial carbon cycle. In the decade, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a kind of porous crystalline porous materials featuring well-defined structures, large surface area, high porosity, diverse components, easy tailorability, and controllable morphology, have attracted considerable research attention, serving as electrocatalysts to drive CO2 reduction. In this review, the reaction mechanisms of electrochemical CO2 reduction and the structure/component advantages of MOFs meeting the requirements of electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction are analyzed. After that, the representative progress for the precise fabrication of MOF-based electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction, focusing on catalytic site design and microenvironment modulation, are systemically summarized. Furthermore, the emerging applications and promising research for more practical scenarios related to electrochemical CO2 conversion are specifically proposed. Finally, the remaining challenges and future outlook of MOFs for electrochemical CO2 reduction are further discussed.

RESUMEN

While supported metal nanoparticles (NPs) have shown significant promise in heterogeneous catalysis, precise control over their interaction with the support, which profoundly impacts their catalytic performance, remains a significant challenge. In this study, Pt NPs are incorporated into thioether-functionalized covalent organic frameworks (denoted COF-Sx), enabling precise control over the size and electronic state of Pt NPs by adjusting the thioether density dangling on the COF pore walls. Notably, the resulting Pt@COF-Sx demonstrate exceptional selectivity (> 99 %) in catalytic hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene to p-chloroaniline, in sharp contrast to the poor selectivity of Pt NPs embedded in thioether-free COFs. Furthermore, the conversion over Pt@COF-Sx exhibits a volcano-type curve as the thioether density increases, due to the corresponding change of accessible Pt sites. This work provides an effective approach to regulating the catalysis of metal NPs via their microenvironment modulation, with the aid of rational design and precise tailoring of support structure.

RESUMEN

Inspired by enzymatic catalysis, it is crucial to construct hydrogen-bonding-rich microenvironment around catalytic sites; unfortunately, its precise construction and understanding how the distance between such microenvironment and catalytic sites affects the catalysis remain significantly challenging. In this work, a series of metal-organic framework (MOF)-based single-atom Ru1 catalysts, namely, Ru1/UiO-67-X (X = -H, -m-(NH2)2, -o-(NH2)2), have been synthesized, where the distance between the hydrogen-bonding microenvironment and Ru1 sites is modulated by altering the location of amino groups. The -NH2 group can form hydrogen bonds with H2O, constituting a unique microenvironment that causes an increased water concentration around the Ru1 sites. Remarkably, Ru1/UiO-67-o-(NH2)2 displays a superior photocatalytic hydrogen production rate, ∼4.6 and ∼146.6 times of Ru1/UiO-67-m-(NH2)2 and Ru1/UiO-67, respectively. Both experimental and computational results suggest that the close proximity of amino groups to the Ru1 sites in Ru1/UiO-67-o-(NH2)2 improves charge transfer and H2O dissociation, accounting for the promoted photocatalytic hydrogen production.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The monocot chimeric jacalins (MCJ) proteins, which contain a jacalin-related lectin (JRL) domain and a dirigent domain (DIR), are specific to Poaceae. MCJ gene family is reported to play an important role in growth, development and stress response. However, their roles in maize have not been thoroughly investigated. RESULTS: In this study, eight MCJ genes in the maize genome (designated as ZmMCJs) were identified, which displayed unequal distribution across four chromosomes. Phylogenetic relationships between the ZmMCJs were evident through the identification of highly conserved motifs and gene structures. Analysis of transcriptome data revealed distinct expression patterns among the ZmMCJ genes, leading to their classification into four different modules, which were subsequently validated using RT-qPCR. Protein structures of the same module are found to be relatively similar. Subcellular localization experiments indicated that the ZmMCJs are mainly located on the cell membrane. Additionally, hemagglutination and inhibition experiments show that only part of the ZmMCJs protein has lectin activity, which is mediated by the JRL structure, and belongs to the mannose-binding type. The cis-acting elements in the promoter region of ZmMCJ genes predicted their involvement response to phytohormones, such as abscisic acid and jasmonic acid. This suggests that ZmMCJ genes may play a significant role in both biotic and abiotic stress responses. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, this study adds new insights into our understanding of the gene-protein architecture, evolutionary characteristics, expression profiles, and potential functions of MCJ genes in maize.

RESUMEN

Although single-atom Cu sites exhibit high efficiency in CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, they are prone to forming Cu nanoparticles due to reduction and aggregation under reaction conditions, especially at high temperatures. Herein, single-atom Cu sites stabilized by adjacent Na+ ions have been successfully constructed within a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based catalyst, namely MOF-808-NaCu. It is found that the electrostatic interaction between the Na+ and Hδ- species plays a pivotal role in upholding the atomic dispersion of Cu in MOF-808-NaCu during CO2 hydrogenation, even at temperatures of up to 275°C. This exceptional stabilization effect endows the catalyst with excellent activity (306 g·kgcat-1·h-1), high selectivity to methanol (93%) and long-term stability at elevated reaction temperatures, far surpassing the counterpart in the absence of Na+ (denoted as MOF-808-Cu). This work develops an effective strategy for the fabrication of stable single-atom sites for advanced catalysis by creating an alkali-decorated microenvironment in close proximity.

RESUMEN

A novel class of crystalline porous materials has been developed utilizing multilevel dynamic linkages, including covalent B-O, dative B←N and hydrogen bonds. Typically, boronic acids undergo in situ condensation to afford B3O3-based units, which further extend to molecular complexes or chains via B←N bonds. The obtained superstructures are subsequently interconnected via hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions, producing crystalline porous organic frameworks (CPOFs). The CPOFs display excellent solution processability, allowing dissolution and subsequent crystallization to their original structures, independent of recrystallization conditions, possibly due to the diverse bond energies of the involved interactions. Significantly, the CPOFs can be synthesized on a gram-scale using cost-effective monomers. In addition, the numerous acidic sites endow the CPOFs with high NH3 capacity, surpassing most porous organic materials and commercial materials.

RESUMEN

Though the coordination environment of single metal sites has been recognized to be of great importance in promoting catalysis, the influence of simultaneous precise modulation of primary and secondary coordination spheres on catalysis remains largely unknown. Herein, a series of single Ni(II) sites with altered primary and secondary coordination spheres have been installed onto metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with UiO-67 skeleton, affording UiO-Ni-X-Y (X = S, O; Y = H, Cl, CF3) with X and Y on the primary and secondary coordination spheres, respectively. Upon deposition with CdS nanoparticles, the resulting composites present high photocatalytic H2 production rates, in which the optimized CdS/UiO-Ni-S-CF3 exhibits an excellent activity of 13.44 mmol g-1, ∼500 folds of the pristine catalyst (29.6 µmol g-1 for CdS/UiO), in 8 h, highlighting the key role of microenvironment modulation around Ni sites. Charge kinetic analysis and theoretical calculation results demonstrate that the charge transfer dynamics and reaction energy barrier are closely correlated with their coordination spheres. This work manifests the advantages of MOFs in the fabrication of structurally precise catalysts and the elucidation of particular influences of microenvironment modulation around single metal sites on the catalytic performance.

RESUMEN

The introduction of single or multiple heterometal atoms into metal nanoparticles is a well-known strategy for altering their structures (compositions) and properties. However, surface single nonmetal atom doping is challenging and rarely reported. For the first time, we have developed synthetic methods, realizing "surgery"-like, successive surface single nonmetal atom doping, replacement, and addition for ultrasmall metal nanoparticles (metal nanoclusters, NCs), and successfully synthesized and characterized three novel bcc metal NCs Au38I(S-Adm)19, Au38S(S-Adm)20, and Au38IS(S-Adm)19 (S-Adm: 1-adamantanethiolate). The influences of single nonmetal atom replacement and addition on the NC structure and optical properties (including absorption and photoluminescence) were carefully investigated, providing insights into the structure (composition)-property correlation. Furthermore, a bottom-up method was employed to construct a metal-organic framework (MOF) on the NC surface, which did not essentially alter the metal NC structure but led to the partial release of surface ligands and stimulated metal NC activity for catalyzing p-nitrophenol reduction. Furthermore, surface MOF construction enhanced NC stability and water solubility, providing another dimension for tunning NC catalytic activity by modifying MOF functional groups.

RESUMEN

ConspectusChemical reactions can be promoted at lower temperatures and pressures, thereby reducing the energy input, by introducing suitable catalysts. Despite its significance, the quest for efficient and stable catalysts remains a significant challenge. In this context, addressing the efficiency of catalysts stands out as a paramount concern. However, the challenges posed by the vague structure and limited tailorability of traditional catalysts would make it highly desirable to fabricate optimized catalysts based on the understanding of structure-activity relationships. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), a subclass of fully designed crystalline materials formed by the polymerization of organic building blocks through covalent bonds have garnered widespread attention in catalysis. The precise and customizable structures of COFs, coupled with attributes such as high surface area and facile functional modification, make COFs attractive molecular platforms for catalytic applications. These inherent advantages position COFs as ideal catalysts, facilitating the elucidation of structure-performance relationships and thereby further improving the catalysis. Nevertheless, there is a lack of systematic emphasis on and summary of structural regulation at the atomic/molecular level for COF catalysis. Consequently, there is a growing need to summarize this research field and provide deep insights into COF-based catalysis to promote its further development.In this Account, we will summarize recent advances in structural regulation achieved in COF-based catalysts, placing an emphasis on the molecular design of the structures for enhanced catalysis. Considering the unique components and structural advantages of COFs, we present the fundamental principles for the rational design of structural regulation in COF-based catalysis. This Account starts by presenting an overview of catalysis and explaining why COFs are promising catalysts. Then, we introduce the molecular design principle for COF catalysis. Next, we present the following three aspects of the specific strategies for structural regulation of COF-based catalysts: (1) By designing different functional groups and integrating metal species into the organic unit, the activity and/or selectivity can be finely modulated. (2) Regulating the linkage facilitates charge transfer and/or modulates the electronic structure of catalytic metal sites, and accordingly, the intrinsic activity/selectivity can be further improved. (3) By means of pore wall/space engineering, the microenvironment surrounding catalytic metal sites can be modulated to optimize performance. Finally, the current challenges and future developments in the structural regulation of COF-based catalysts are discussed in detail. This Account provides insight into the structural regulation of COF-based catalysts at the atomic/molecular level toward improving their performance, which would provide significant inspiration for the design and structural regulation of other heterogeneous catalysts.

RESUMEN

Atomically precise metal nanoclusters (NCs) with unique optical properties and abundant catalytic sites are promising in photocatalysis. However, their light-induced instability and the difficulty of utilizing the photogenerated carriers for photocatalysis pose significant challenges. Here, MAg24 (M=Ag, Pd, Pt, and Au) NCs doped with diverse single heteroatoms have been encapsulated in a metal-organic framework (MOF), UiO-66-NH2, affording MAg24@UiO-66-NH2. Strikingly, compared with Ag25@UiO-66-NH2, the MAg24@UiO-66-NH2 doped with heteroatom exhibits much enhanced activity in photocatalytic hydrogen production, among which AuAg24@UiO-66-NH2 presents the best activity up to 3.6 mmol g-1 h-1, far superior to all other counterparts. Moreover, they display excellent photocatalytic recyclability and stability. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy demonstrate that MAg24 NCs encapsulated into the MOF create a favorable charge transfer pathway, similar to a Z-scheme heterojunction, when exposed to visible light. This promotes charge separation, along with optimized Ag electronic state, which are responsible for the superior activity in photocatalytic hydrogen production.

RESUMEN

Carbon-based single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted tremendous interest in heterogeneous catalysis. However, the common electric heating techniques to produce carbon-based SACs usually suffer from prolonged heating time and tedious operations. Herein, a general and facile microwave-assisted rapid pyrolysis method is developed to afford carbon-based SACs within 3 min without inert gas protection. The obtained carbon-based SACs present high porosity and comparable carbonization degree to those obtained by electric heating techniques. Specifically, the single-atom Ni implanted N-doped carbon (Ni1 -N-C) derived from a Ni-doped metal-organic framework (Ni-ZIF-8) exhibits remarkable CO Faradaic efficiency (96 %) with a substantial CO partial current density (jCO ) up to 1.06 A/cm2 in CO2 electroreduction, far superior to the counterpart obtained by traditional pyrolysis with electric heating. Mechanism investigations reveal that the resulting Ni1 -N-C presents abundant defective sites and mesoporous structure, greatly facilitating CO2 adsorption and mass transfer. This work establishes a versatile approach to rapid and large-scale synthesis of SACs as well as other carbon-based materials for efficient catalysis.

RESUMEN

Photocatalytic CO2 reduction holds great potential for alleviating global energy and environmental issues, where the electronic structure of the catalytic center plays a crucial role. However, the spin state, a key descriptor of electronic properties, is largely overlooked. Herein, we present a simple strategy to regulate the spin states of catalytic Co centers by changing their coordination environment by exchanging the Co species into a stable Zn-based metal-organic framework (MOF) to afford Co-OAc, Co-Br, and Co-CN for CO2 photoreduction. Experimental and DFT calculation results suggest that the distinct spin states of the Co sites give rise to different charge separation abilities and energy barriers for CO2 adsorption/activation in photocatalysis. Consequently, the optimized Co-OAc with the highest spin-state Co sites presents an excellent photocatalytic CO2 activity of 2325.7 µmol·g-1·h-1 and selectivity of 99.1% to CO, which are among the best in all reported MOF photocatalysts, in the absence of a noble metal and additional photosensitizer. This work underlines the potential of MOFs as an ideal platform for spin-state manipulation toward improved photocatalysis.

RESUMEN

Microporous organic networks (MONs) are highly porous materials that are particularly useful in analytical chemistry. However, the use of these materials is often limited by the functional groups available on their surface. Here, we described the polymerization of a sea urchin-like structure material at ambient temperature, that was functionalized with hydroxyl, carboxyl, and triazine groups and denoted as OH-COOH-MON-TEPT. A substantial proportion of OH-COOH-MON-TEPT was intricately decorated EDA-Fe3O4, creating a well-designed configuration (EDA-Fe3O4 @OH-COOH-MON-TEPT-EDC) for superior adsorption of the target analytes phenylurea herbicides (PUHs) via magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE). The proposed method showed remarkably low limits of detection ranging from 0.03 to 0.22 ng·L-1. Experimental investigations and theoretical analyses unveiled the adsorption mode between EDA-Fe3O4 @OH-COOH-MON-TEPT-EDC and PUHs. These findings establish a robust foundation for potential applications of EDA-Fe3O4 @OH-COOH-MON-TEPT-EDC in the analysis of various polar contaminants.
