A high-performance and selective adsorbent was developed for simultaneous extraction of 6 chlorobenzenes residues in soil samples by using magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) combined with automated SPE followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The adsorbent was synthesized by grafting carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin (CM-β-CD) on the surface of porous core-shell magnetic Fe3O4@flower like TiO2 microspheres (Fe3O4@fTiO2-CMCD), used as a carrier. The main factors (adsorbent amount, adsorption time, elution solvent, elution volume, and elution flow rate) affecting the extraction efficiency were investigated in detail. The adsorbent exhibited high loading capacity (25.6 mg g(-1) for 1,3-dichlorobenzene). This maybe due to meso-/macroporous TiO2 having high specific surface area; as a carrier of the β-cyclodextrin film, it could obviously increase the number of recognition sites. The newly developed adsorbent also showed good selectivity towards chlorobenzenes based on host-guest interactions between β-cyclodextrin (on adsorbent's surface) and targets, which can minimize complex matrix interference in soil samples. The proposed method was successfully applied for the analysis of environmental soil samples with recovery ranging from 87.3 to 104.3%. All target compounds showed good linearities with correlation coefficients (r) higher than 0.996. The limits of quantitation for the 6 CBs were 0.03-0.09 μg kg(-1). These findings confirmed meso-/macroporous structure Fe3O4@fTiO2-CMCD as a highly effective extraction material for use in trace CB analyses in complex soil samples.

Tree species through aboveground biomass and roots are a key factors influencing the quality and quantity of soil organic matter. Our study aimed to determine the stability of soil organic matter in Luvisols under the influence of five different tree species. The study areas were located 25 km north of Krakow, in southern Poland.

Fifteen new aliphatic metabolites, 2-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-ones (1,2), 2-methoxy-2-methyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrrol-3-ones (4a/4b, 5a/5b), butyrolactones (6-9), and aliphatic metabolites (16-20) as well as known pyridin-2(1H)-one (3) and butyrolactone analogues (10-15) were obtained from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces antifungus isolated from the forest soil sample collected in Tengchong, China. Pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives (1, 2) with an individual 2-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one skeleton is a kind of rarely reported compound and were firstly obtained from natural source. The structures of the new metabolites were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic analysis including data from experimental and calculated ECD spectra as well as Mosher's reagent derivative method.

The creation of defects in crystalline structures can tune metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) properties, such as improving their adsorptive and catalytic performance with producing more porosity and active sites. In this work, the bimetallic UiO-66 containing Zn and Zr was prepared. And then UiO-66 with missing cluster defects (UiO-66-1/3) were obtained by acid washing to remove the Zn nodes.

The utilization of natural waste gravel soil as base course material contributes to environmental protection and carbon emission reduction. The purpose of this research is to establish a new model for automated gradation design of the composite soil stabilizer-stabilized waste gravel soil (CSSWGS). A gradation range of CSSWGS has been proposed.
