RESUMEN
Separation of trivalent actinides (An(III)) and lanthanides (Ln(III)) poses a huge challenge in the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel due to their similar chemical properties. N,N'-Diethyl-N,N'-ditolyl-2,9-diamide-1,10-phenanthroline (Et-Tol-DAPhen) is a potential ligand for the extraction of An(III) from Ln(III), while there are still few reports on the effect of its substituent including electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups on An(III)/Ln(III) separation. Herein, the interaction of Et-Tol-DAPhen ligands modified by the electron-withdrawing groups (CF3, Br) and electron-donating groups (OH) with Am(III)/Eu(III) ions was investigated using scalar relativistic density functional theory (DFT). The analyses of bond order, quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM), and molecular orbital (MO) indicate that the substitution groups have a slight effect on the electronic structures of the [M(L-X)(NO3)3] (X = CF3, Br, OH) complexes. However, the thermodynamic results suggest that a ligand with the electron-donating group (L-OH) improves the extraction ability of metal ions, and the ligand modified by the electron-withdrawing group (L-Br) has the best Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity. This work could render new insights into understanding the effect of electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups in tuning the selectivity of Et-Tol-DAPhen derivatives and pave the way for designing new ligands modified by substituted groups with better extraction ability and An(III)/Ln(III) selectivity.
RESUMEN
Green tea is one of people's favorite drinks. However, pesticide residues in green tea can cause harm to the human body, and therefore, detection of pesticide residues in green tea is very important. In recent years, the detection of pesticide residues in tea has become a research hotspot. In this paper, a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) detection method of tolfenpyrad pesticide residues in green tea was established by using acetonitrile extractant, dispersive solid-phase extraction purification, temperature programming and application retention time lock with the database. After the sample was extracted with acetonitrile, then the sample was purified by QuEChERS extraction purification tube, afterward isomer B was used as the internal standard for the determination by multiple reaction monitoring mode (MRM) of GC-MS/MS. The results indicated that the experimental data accorded with the criterion on quality control of laboratoris(chemical testing of food), and the requirements of recovery, calibration curve, precision.This method was used to detect tolfenpyrad residues in actual green tea samples in multiple batches, and the satisfactory results were obtained.

Metal doping has been considered to be an effective approach to stabilize various boron clusters. In this work, we constructed a series of largest metal-centered double-ring tubular boron clusters An@B24 (An = Th, Pa, Pu, and Am). Extensive global minimum structural searches combined with density functional theory predicted that the global minima of An@B24 (An = Th, Pu, and Am) are double-ring tubular structures. Formation energy analysis indicates that these boron clusters are highly stable, especially for Th@B24 and Pa@B24. Detailed bonding analysis shows that the significant stability of An@B24 is determined by the covalent character of the An-B bonding, which stems from the interactions of An 5f and 6d orbitals and B 2p orbitals. These results show that actinide metal doping is a feasible route to construct stable large metal-centered double-ring tubular boron clusters, offering the possibility to design boron nanomaterials with special physiochemical properties.
RESUMEN
Six hybrid uranyl-transition metal compounds [UO2 Ni(cptpy)2 (HCOO)2 (DMF)(H2 O)] (1), [UO2 Ni(cptpy)2 (BTPA)2 ] (2), [UO2 Fe(cptpy)2 (HCOO)2 (DMF)(H2 O)] (3), [UO2 Fe(cptpy)2 (BTPA)2 ] (4), [UO2 Co(cptpy)2 (HCOO)2 (DMF)(H2 O)] (5), and [UO2 Co(cptpy)2 (BTPA)2 ] (6), based on bifunctional ligand 4'-(4-carboxyphenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (Hcptpy) are reported (H2 BTPA = 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid). Single-crystal XRD revealed that all six compounds feature similar metalloligands, which consist of two cptpy- anions and one transition metal cation. The metalloligand M(cptpy)2 can be considered to be an extended linear dicarboxylic ligand with length of 22.12â Å. Compoundsâ 1, 3, and 5 are isomers, and all of them feature 1D chain structures. The adjacent 1D chains are connected together by hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions to form a 3D porous structure, which is filled with solvent molecules and can be exchanged with I2 . Compoundsâ 2, 4, and 6 are also isomers, and all of them feature 2D honeycomb (6,3) networks with hexagonal units of dimensions 41.91×26.89â Å, which are the largest among uranyl compounds with honeycomb networks. The large aperture allows two sets of equivalent networks to be entangled together to result in a 2D+2Dâ3D polycatenated framework. Remarkably, these uranyl compounds exhibit high catalytic activity for cycloaddition of carbon dioxide. Moreover, the geometric and electronic structures of compoundsâ 1 and 2 are systematically discussed on the basis of DFT calculations.
RESUMEN
Herein we present a new metalloligand, Th6L12 [IHEP-10; L = 4-pyrazolecarboxylic acid (H2PyC)], which can be used to generate a novel multicomponent heterometallic metal-organic framework (MOF), [[Cu3(µ3-OH)(NO3)(H2O)2]2Th6(µ3-O)4(µ3-OH)4(PyC)6(HPyC)6(H2O)6](NO3)2 (IHEP-11), through further assembly with second [Cu3(µ3-OH)(PyC)3] clusters. In IHEP-11, six Cu3 clusters are connected by six NO3- anions to form an unprecedented annular Cu18 cluster, which can be viewed as a 12-connected node to link with 12 Th6 clusters, resulting a 4,12-connected shp net. Benefiting from the cationic framework and 3D porous structure, IHEP-11 can efficiently remove ReO4- (an analogue of radioactive 99TcO4-) from aqueous solution in a wide pH range. This work highlights the feasibility of constructing multicomponent MOFs through a step-by-step synthesis strategy based on metalloligands.
RESUMEN
A novel two-dimensional double-layer anionic uranyl-organic framework, U-TBPCA {[NH2(CH3)2][(UO2)(TBPCA)], where H3TBPCA = 4,4',4â³-s-triazine-1,3,5-triyltripamino-methylene-cyclohexane-carboxylate}, with abundant active sites and stability was obtained by assembling UO2(NO3)2·6H2O and a triazine tricarboxylate linker, TBPCA3-. Due to the flexibility of the ligand and diverse coordination modes between carboxyl groups and uranyl ions, U-TBPCA exhibits an intriguing topological structure and steric configuration. This double-layer anionic uranyl-organic framework is highly porous and can be used for selective adsorption of cationic dyes. Due to the presence of high-density metal ions and basic -NH- groups, U-TBPCA acts as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the cycloaddition reaction of carbon dioxide with epoxy compounds. Moreover, the various modes of coordination between the tricarboxylic ligand and uranyl ion were studied by density functional theory calculations, and several simplified models were established to probe the influence of hydrogen bonding between carbon dioxide and U-TBPCA on the ability of U-TBPCA to bind carbon dioxide. This work should aid in improving our understanding of the coordination behavior of uranyl ion as well as the development and utilization of new actinide materials.
RESUMEN
The exploration of metal-doped boron clusters has a great significance in the design of high coordination number (CN) compounds. Actinide-doped boron clusters are probable candidates for achieving high CNs. In this work, we systematically explored a series of actinide metal atom (U, Np, and Pu) doped B20 boron clusters An@B20 (An = U, Np, and Pu) by global minimum structural searches and density functional theory (DFT). Each An@B20 cluster is confirmed to be a twenty-coordinate complex, which is the highest CN obtained in the chemistry of actinide-doped boron clusters so far. The predicted global minima of An@B20 are tubular structures with actinide atoms as centers, which can be considered as boron molecular drums. In An@B20, U@B20 has a relatively high symmetry of C2, while both Np@B20 and Pu@B20 exhibit C1 symmetry. Extensive bonding analysis demonstrates that An@B20 has σ and π delocalized bonding, and the U-B bonds possess a relatively higher covalency than the Np-B and Pu-B bonds, resulting in the higher formation energy of U@B20. Therefore, the covalent character of An-B bonding may be crucial for the formation of these high CN actinide-centered boron clusters. These results deepen our understanding of actinide metal doped boron clusters and provide new clues for developing stable high CN boron-based nanomaterials.
RESUMEN
Nitrogen-donor ligands have been considered to be promising agents for separating trivalent actinides (An(III)) from lanthanides (Ln(III)). Thereinto, how to decorate these ligands for better extraction performance is urgent to design "perfect" separating extractants. In this work, we systematically explored a series of heterocyclic N-donor ligands (L1 = dipyridazino[4,3-c:3',4'-h]acridine, L2 = dipyridazino[3,4-a:4',3'-j]phenazine, L3 = 2,6-di(cinnolin-3-yl)pyridine)), as well as their substituted derivatives, and compared their extraction and complexation ability toward An(III) and Ln(III) ions by using quasi-relativistic density functional theory (DFT). We found that the pyridazine N atoms probably play a notable role in electron donation to metal cations by molecular orbital (MO) and bond order analyses. Besides, the calculated results clearly verified that these N-donor ligands possess higher coordination affinity toward Am(III) over Eu(III). The rigid ligands (L1 and L2) exhibit higher selective abilities for the Am(III)/Eu(III) separation compared with that of the flexible ligand (L3). For each ligand, the 1:2 (metal/ligand) extraction reaction is predicted to be most probable in the separation process. The introduction of an alkyl group on the lateral chain or an electron-donating group on the main chain gives rise to a better extraction performance of the ligands, and the CyMe4 or MeO substituted ligands show higher extraction and separation ability. Simultaneous introduction of CyMe4 and MeO groups can enhance the extraction ability of the ligand to metal ions, but the separating ability depends on the differences of the extraction capacity of An(III) and Ln(III). This work can help to gain a more in-depth understanding the selectivity differences of similar N-donor ligands and provide more theoretical insights into the design of novel extractants for An(III)/Ln(III) separation.
RESUMEN
As a less explored avenue, actinide-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are worth studying for the particularity of actinide nodes in coordination behaviour and assembly modes. In this work, an azobenzenetetracarboxylate-based anionic MOF supported by uranyl-carboxyl helical chain units was synthesized, incorporating linear uranyl as the metal centre. This kind of helical chain-type building unit is reported for the first time in uranyl-based MOFs. Structural analysis reveals that the formation of helical chain secondary units can be attributed to restricted equatorial coordination of rigid flat azobenzene ligand to uranyl centres. Meanwhile, this newly-synthesized anionic material has been used to remove Eu3+ ions, as a non-radioactive surrogate of Am3+ ion, through an ion-exchange process with [(CH3 )2 NH2 ]+ ions in its open channels, as evidenced by a combination of 1 H NMR spectroscopy, EDS and PXRD.
RESUMEN
Separation of trivalent actinides An(III) from lanthanides Ln(III) is a worldwide challenge owing to their very similar chemical behaviors. It is highly desirable to understand the nature of selectivity for the An(III)/Ln(III) separation with various ligands through theoretical calculations because of their radiotoxicity and experimental difficulties. In this work, we have investigated three dithioamide-based ligands and their extraction behaviors with Am(III) and Eu(III) ions using the scalar-relativistic density functional theory. The results show that the dithioamide-based ligands have stronger electron donating ability than do the corresponding diamide-based ones. All analyses including geometry, Mulliken population, QTAIM (quantum theory of atoms in molecules), and NBO (natural bond orbital) suggest that the Am-S/N bonds possess more covalency compared to the Eu-S/N bonds, and the M-S bonds have more covalent character than the M-N bonds. Thermodynamic results reveal that N2,N9-diethyl-N2,N9-di-p-tolyl-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-bis(carbothioamide) (L1) has a stronger complexing ability with metal ions owing to its rigid structure and that N6,N6'-diethyl-N6,N6'-di-p-tolyl-[2,2'-bipyridine]-6,6'-bis(carbothioamide) (L2) shows a higher selectivity for the Am(III)/Eu(III) separation. In addition, these dithioamide-based ligands possess Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity higher than those of the corresponding diamide-based ones, although the former have weaker complexing ability with metal ions, probably due to the greater covalency of the M-S bonds. This theoretical evaluation provides valuable insights into the nature of the selectivity for the Am(III)/Eu(III) separation and information on designing of efficient An(III)/Ln(III) separation with dithioamide-based ligands.
RESUMEN
Pyridylpyrazole ligands have shown excellent competence for partitioning actinides from lanthanides. As far as we know, the preorganization structure of the ligand has a great impact on the extraction separation ability. However, the mechanism that works well for some ligands but fails for others needs to be clearly elucidated. In this work, we designed three various pyridylpyrazole ligands, BPP, BPBP, and BPPhen, and further preorganized one or both side pyrazole rings of these ligands. The properties of these ligands and the coordination structures, bonding nature and thermodynamic behaviors of the related Am(III) and Eu(III) complexes have been systematically studied in a theoretical fashion. All analyses of geometries, charge transfer, QTAIM (quantum theory of atoms in molecules) and NBO (natural bond orbital) suggest that the Am-N bonds possess more covalence compared to that of Eu-N bonds. According to the thermodynamic results, increasing the rigidity of the bridging skeleton rather than the side chain can enhance the extraction ability and Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity of the ligand. This work may identify the reasonability of a useful approach on achieving highly efficient Am(III)/Eu(III) separation through tuning the preorganization level of the ligand and further provide meaningful theoretical basis on the input of preorganization toward ligand design and screening.
RESUMEN
The fluorescence of uranyl originated from electronic transitions (S11-S00 and S10-S0v, v = 0-4) of the ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) process is an intrinsic property of many uranyl coordination compounds. However, light-induced regulation on fluorescence features of uranyl hybrid materials through photoactive functional groups is less investigated. In this work, the photoactive vinyl group-containing ligands, ( E)-methyl 3-(pyridin-4-yl)acrylate and ( E)-methyl 3-(pyridin-3-yl)acrylate, have been used in the construction of uranyl coordination polymers in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen). Five compounds (UO2)3(µ3-O)(µ2-OH)2(L1)2( phen)2(1), (UO2)3(µ3-O)(µ2-OH)3(L1)( phen)2 (2), (UO2)3(µ3-O)(µ2-OH)3(L2)( phen)2 (3), [(UO2)2(µ2-OH)2(L2)2( phen)2]·2H2O (4), and (UO2)Zn(SO4)(phen)(H2O)(OH)2(5) were obtained under hydrothermal conditions. Compounds 1-4 are polynuclear uranyl structures with abundant π-π interactions and hydrogen bonds contributed to the 3D crystal packing of them. As model compounds, 1 and 3 are selected for exploring photoresponsive behaviors. The emission intensities of these two compounds are found to decrease gradually over the exposure time of UV irradiation. X-ray single crystal structural analysis suggests that the fluorescence attenuation can be explained by the slight rotation of pyridinyl groups around the carbon-carbon double bond during UV irradiation, which is accompanied by the change of weak interactions, i.e., π-π interactions and hydrogen bonds in strength and density. This feature of light-induced fluorescence attenuation may enable these two compounds to act as potential photoresponsive sensor materials.
RESUMEN
Separation of trivalent actinides (An(III)) and lanthanides (Ln(III)) is one of the most important steps in spent nuclear fuel reprocessing. However, it is very difficult and challenging to separate them due to their similar chemical properties. Recently the pyridylpyrazole ligand (PypzH) has been identified to show good separation ability toward Am(III) over Eu(III). In this work, to explore the Am(III)/Eu(III) separation mechanism of PypzH at the molecular level, the geometrical structures, bonding nature, and thermodynamic behaviors of the Am(III) and Eu(III) complexes with PypzH ligands modified by alkyl chains (Cn-PypzH, n = 2, 4, 8) have been systematically investigated using scalar relativistic density functional theory (DFT). According to the NBO (natural bonding orbital) and QTAIM (quantum theory of atoms in molecules) analyses, the M-N bonds exhibit a certain degree of covalent character, and more covalency appears in Am-N bonds compared to Eu-N bonds. Thermodynamic analyses suggest that the 1:1 extraction reaction, [M(NO3)(H2O)6]2+ + PypzH + 2NO3- â M(PypzH)(NO3)3(H2O) + 5H2O, is the most suitable for Am(III)/Eu(III) separation. Furthermore, the extraction ability and the Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity of the ligand PypzH is indeed enhanced by adding alkyl-substituted chains in agreement with experimental observations. Besides this, the nitrogen atom of pyrazole ring plays a more significant role in the extraction reactions related to Am(III)/Eu(III) separation compared to that of pyridine ring. This work could identify the mechanism of the Am(III)/Eu(III) selectivity of the ligand PypzH and provide valuable theoretical information for achieving an efficient Am(III)/Eu(III) separation process for spent nuclear fuel reprocessing.
RESUMEN
Disulfide bond plays crucial roles in stabilization of protein structure and in fine-tuning protein functions. To explore an approach for rational heme protein design, we herein rationally introduced a pair of cysteines (F46C/M55C) into the scaffold of myoglobin (Mb), mimicking those in native neuroglobin. Molecular modeling suggested that it is possible for Cys46 and Cys55 to form an intramolecular disulfide bond, which was confirmed experimentally by ESI-MS analysis, DTNB reaction and CD spectrum. Moreover, it was shown that the spontaneously formed disulfide bond of Cys46-Cys55 fine-tunes not only the heme active site structure, but also the protein functions. The substitution of Phe46 with Ser46 in F46S Mb destabilizes the protein while facilitates H2O2 activation. Remarkably, the formation of an intramolecular disulfide bond of Cys46-Cys55 in F46C/M55C Mb improves the protein stability and regulates the heme site to be more favorable for substrate binding, resulting in enhanced peroxidase activity. This study provides valuable information of structure-function relationship for heme proteins regulated by an intramolecular disulfide bond, and also suggests that construction of such a covalent bond is useful for design of functional heme proteins.

Heme proteins perform diverse functions in living systems, of which nitrite reductase (NIR) activity receives much attention recently. In this study, to better understand the structural elements responsible for the NIR activity, we used myoglobin (Mb) as a model heme protein and redesigned the heme active center, by introducing one or two distal histidines, and by creating a channel to the heme center with removal of the native distal His64 gate (His to Ala mutation). UV-Vis kinetic studies, combined with EPR studies, showed that a single distal histidine with a suitable position to the heme iron, i.e., His43, is crucial for nitrite (NO2(-)) to nitric oxide (NO) reduction. Moreover, creation of a water channel to the heme center significantly enhanced the NIR activity compared to the corresponding mutant without the channel. In addition, X-ray crystallographic studies of F43H/H64A Mb and its complexes with NO2(-) or NO revealed a unique hydrogen-bonding network in the heme active center, as well as unique substrate and product binding models, providing valuable structural information for the enhanced NIR activity. These findings enriched our understanding of the structure and NIR activity relationship of heme proteins. The approach of creating a channel in this study is also useful for rational design of other functional heme proteins.

Two metal-free organic sensitizers containing two N,N-diethylaniline (DEA) moieties and a twisted 1,1,2,2-tetraphenylethene (TPE) structure, dye SD with one anchoring group and dye DD with two anchoring groups, were synthesized and applied in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The introduction of a nonplanar TPE structure was used to form a series of propeller-like structures and reduce the tendency of dyes to randomly aggregate on TiO2 surface, but without importing an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) property. The thermal stabilities, UV-vis absorption spectra, electrochemical properties, and photovoltaic parameters of DSSCs with these two dyes were systematically studied and compared with each other. The overall conversion efficiencies (η) of 4.56% for dye SD and 6.08% for dye DD were obtained under AM 1.5 G irradiation.
RESUMEN
In this paper, we report a resonance light scattering (RLS) method for the determination of fructose bisphosphates (FBPs) in water solution using fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (F-1,6-BP) as a model analyte without the procedure of extracting target analyte. The method used a type of modified gold nanoparticles (GNPs) as optical probe. The modified GNPs are uranyl-salophen-cysteamine-GNPs (U-Sal-Cy-GNPs) which are obtained through the acylation reaction of carboxylated salophen with cysteamine-capped GNPs (Cy-GNPs) to form Sal-Cy-GNPs and then the chelation reaction of uranyl with tetradentate ligand salophen in the Sal-Cy-GNPs. A FBP molecule is used easily to connect two U-Sal-Cy-GNPs to cause the aggregation of the GNPs by utilizing the specific affinity of uranyl-salophen complex to phosphate group, resulting in the production of strong RLS signal from the system. The amount of FBPs can be determined through detecting the RLS intensity change of the system. A linear range was found to be 2.5 to 75 nmol/L with a detection limit of 0.91 nmol/L under optimal conditions. The method has been successfully used to determine FBPs in real samples with the recoveries of 96.5-103.5 %.

A double-receptor sandwich method for the fluorescence determination of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is proposed in this paper. The solid phase receptor on the surface of glass slides is a molecularly imprinted membrane (MIM) containing an artificial nanocavity. It is constructed by a molecular imprinting technique using adenosine monophosphate (AMP) as a template molecule. The labeled receptor is a uranyl-salophen complex containing a fluorescent group or uranyl-salophen-fluorescein (USF). It is synthesized with salophen, 5-aminofluorescein, and uranyl. In a procedure of determining ATP, ATP in sample solution is first adsorbed on the surface of the glass slide through the combination of the AMP group in ATP with the nanocavity in MIM. Then, the adsorbed ATP binds USF through the coordination reaction of the phosphate group in ATP with uranyl in USF to form a sandwich-type structure of MIM-ATP-USF. The amount of ATP is detected through the fluorescence determination of USF bound on the slide. Under optimal conditions, the linear range for the determination of ATP is 0.3 to 4.8 nmol/mL with a detection limit of 0.041 nmol/mL. The proposed method has been successfully employed for the determination of ATP in real samples with the recoveries of 98.5 to 102.5 %.

A method based on HPLC with UV detection was developed for the quantitative determination of chloramphenicol (CAP) residues in aquatic products. The samples were extracted with ethyl acetate-ammonium hydroxide (98 + 2, v/v), followed by a cleanup step using an immunoaffinity column. The analytes were determined by HPLC-UV. Optimal conditions for the extraction and cleanup procedures are described. The linear regression equation was y = 91.47x - 8.60 with R = 0.9998 (y = peak area and x = CAP concentration) and showed a good reproducibility. The LOQ was 0.25 microg/kg for determining CAP spiked in the aquatic products. The mean recoveries of CAP from fish and shrimp samples fortified at 0.25-1.0 microg/kg were 88.7-93.1 and 92.0-97.3%, respectively; the repeatability RSDs were less than 8.1%. It was concluded that the method is simple, highly sensitive, and low cost for quantitatively measuring CAP residues in aquatic products. Analyte identification was confirmed by HPLC/MSIMS analysis.

Monocrotophos (MP), an organophosphorus pesticide, poses a serious threat to human health, so a rapid and simple technique is needed to detect it. In this study, two novel optical sensors for MP detection were created using the Fe(III) Salophen complex and Eu(III) Salophen complex, respectively. One sensor is an Fe(III) Salophen complex (I-N-Sal), which can bind MP selectively and form a supramolecule, resulting in a strong resonance light scattering (RLS) signal at 300 nm. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limit was 30 nM, the linear range was 0.1-1.1 µM, the correlation coefficient R2 = 0.9919, and the recovery rate range was 97.0-103.1%. Interaction properties between the sensor I-N-Sal and MP and the RLS mechanism were investigated using density functional theory (DFT). And another sensor is based on the Eu(III) Salophen complex and 5-aminofluorescein derivatives. The Eu(III) Salophen complex was immobilized on the surface of amino-silica gel (Sigel-NH2) particles as the solid phase receptor (ESS) of MP and 5-aminofluorescein derivatives as the fluorescent (FL)-labeled receptor (N-5-AF) of MP, which can selectively bind the MP and form a sandwich-type supramolecule. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limit was 0.4 µM, the linear range was 1.3-7.0 µM, the correlation coefficient R2 = 0.9983, and the recovery rate range was 96.6-101.1%. Interaction properties between the sensor and MP were investigated by UV-vis, FT-IR, and XRD. Both sensors were successfully applied to the determination of MP content in tap water and camellia.
