Investigation on the use of the oxidized form (factor 3 (3a)) of the trimethylated intermediate (precorrin 3 (2)) as a substrate for the enzymes of the anaerobic pathway to vitamin B12 led to the synthesis of three pairs of novel cobalt corrinoids. The products were made with the aid of the Salmonella typhimurium enzymes CbiH, CbiF, CbiG, and CbiT, were synthesized in several 13C labeled versions, and were isolated as methylesters after esterification. Structures were determined by detailed NMR and MS analyses. Each set of products was obtained in the decarboxylated (RMe) and non-decarboxylated (R=CH2COOCH3) forms (at the C-12 position of the porphyrinoid).

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with high activity and efficient atom utilization for oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs) are imperative for rechargeable Zinc-air batteries (ZABs). However, it is still a prominent challenge to construct a noble-metal-free SAC with low cost but high efficiency. Herein, a novel nitrogen-doped graphene (NrGO) based SAC, immobilized with atomically dispersed single cobalt (Co) atoms (Co-NrGO-SAC), is reported for ORRs.

Water pollution because of the presence of heavy metals remains a serious worry. The present work demonstrates the exclusion of cobalt ion (or Co(II)) from water using novel and cost-effective biosorbents. Initially, the biosorbent was chemically modified using orthophosphoric acid and then subjected to calcination to result acid modified date seed biochar (AMDB).

Dimethoate (DIM) is one of the most extensively applied organophosphorus pesticides (OPs), which is used to boost farm productivity due to its high insecticidal efficacy. However, the excessive use of DIM can result in the extensive contamination of soil, groundwater and food. Monitoring of DIM in environmental and food samples is crucial in view of its potential health risks and environmental hazards from excessive residues.
