The reaction between nitroprusside (NP, [Fe(II)(CN)5NO](2-)) and organic thiolates (RS(-)) in aqueous solution has long been known to produce an unstable red intermediate thus often being referred to as the "red product" (RP) in the literature. While RP has always been formulated as [Fe(II)(CN)5N(O)SR](3-), it is rather difficult to study it in aqueous solution because it is not only unstable but also exhibits rapid ligand exchange. All previous studies of RP have relied on UV-vis, IR, kinetics measurements, and analysis of decomposed products. Herein we report the first comprehensive multinuclear ((1)H, (13)C, (15)N, and (17)O) NMR characterization of the RP produced from the reaction between NP and 2-mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA). The NMR chemical shifts obtained for the RP are compared with those from the free ligand (S-nitrosothiol, RS-N=O) prepared in situ by the reaction of MSA with NaNO2. We also showed that useful thermodynamic and kinetic properties of RP formation can be readily obtained from (1)H NMR studies.

In contrast to natural enzymes, nanozymes show promising advantages of low cost and high stability for analytical applications. The simple mix of L-phenylalanine (F) and Cu produces two-dimensional nanosheets of a coordination polymer with a high surface area ratio and rich exposed active sites as a novel catalyst. As the mimetic of natural laccase, this nanozyme (F-Cu) can catalyze the oxidative coupling reaction of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DP) and 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AP) to produce a distinct red product, thus establishing an intuitive and simple method for the detection of thiram.

Background  The article delineates a strategy for detecting ascorbic acid (AA) through the use of iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) nanoparticles on an electrode. The Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles demonstrated effective electrocatalysis in the oxidation of AA, resulting in increased peak currents. The sensor showcased a wide linear detection range, a low detection limit, and high selectivity towards interferents, making it suitable for accurate AA measurement in food analysis and medical diagnostics applications.

Aiming at the problems of the large storage, complex composition, low comprehensive utilization rate, and high environmental impact of coal gangue, this paper carried out experimental research on the preparation of iron oxide red from high-iron gangue by calcination activation, acid leaching, extraction, and the hydrothermal synthesis of coal gangue. The experimental results show that when the calcination temperature of coal gangue is 500 °C, the calcination time is 1.5 h, the optimal concentration of iron removal is 6 mol/L, the acid leaching temperature is 80 °C, the acid leaching time is 1 h, and the liquid--solid mass ratio is 4:1; the iron dissolution rate can reach 87.

This study reports a sensitive and selective colorimetric approach for the analysis of dopamine (DA) based on CeO @ZIF-8/Cu-CDs laccase-like nanozymes activity. The CeO @ZIF-8/Cu-CDs was synthesized using cerium oxide (CeO ) and copper-doped carbon dots (Cu-CDs) with 2-methylimidazole by a facilely hydrothermal approach. The CeO @ZIF-8/Cu-CDs exhibited excellent laccase-like nanozymes activity and can oxidize the colorless substrate (DA) to red product with 4-aminoantipyrine as the chromogenic agent.

Microbial life present in the marine environment has to be able to adapt to rapidly changing and often extreme conditions. This makes these organisms a putative source of commercially interesting compounds since adaptation provides different biochemical routes from those found in their terrestrial counterparts. In this work, the goal was the identification of a marine bacterium isolated from a sample taken at a shallow water hydrothermal vent and of its red product.
