In this work, the study of photocatalytic hydrogen production by RGO/ZnInS with simultaneous degradation of organic amines was carried out in the presence of organic amines in wastewater as the sacrificial agents. The effects of several factors, such as organic amine types, pH value, catalyst concentration, organic amine concentration, and sunlight source, on the photocatalytic activity of RGO/ZnInS for H production were investigated. At the same time, its performance of degrading organic amines during H production was also examined. The results showed that the order of H production activity of RGO/ZnInS in six organic amine solutions was N(CHCH) > N(HOCHCH) > N(CH) > HO(CH)NH > CH-N> CO(NH), and the highest H production was in N(CHCH) (triethylamine) solution, being 1597 μmol·g·h, which is 2.6 times as high as that using the aqueous solution mixture of NaS and NaSO as the sacrificial agent. In addition, when the pH was 13, the catalyst concentration was 1.0 g·L, and the triethylamine concentration was 1.0 mol·L, the photocatalytic activity was the highest. Furthermore, the relationship between triethylamine concentration and H production was analyzed according to the theory of dynamics.

Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into value-added chemicals offers a propitious alternative to traditional thermal methods, contributing to environmental remediation and energy sustainability. In this respect, covalent organic frameworks (COFs), are crystalline porous materials showcasing remarkable efficacy in CO2 fixation facilitated by visible light owing to their excellent photochemical properties. Herein, we employed Lewis acidic Zn(II) anchored pyrene-based COF (Zn(II)@Pybp-COF) to facilitate the photocatalytic CO2 utilization and transformation to 2-oxazolidinones.

Cathodic Deoxygenative Alkylation of Nitro(hetero)arenes with Organic Halides.

We have realized a cathodic deoxygenative alkylation between nitro(hetero)arenes and organic halides, employing bis(pinacolato)diboron (Bpin) and LiCl as additives to trap and stabilize the generated alkyl radicals and carbanions, thereby facilitating efficient N-O cleavage and selective C-N bond formation. The protocol offers an economical method for the efficient synthesis of multiple aromatic(hetero) amines, without the need for reactive reductants and the exclusion of air and moisture. Notably, the protocol is distinguished by scalability, broad functional group compatibility, and safe and mild conditions, demonstrating practicality in the synthesis and late-stage modification of various bioactive compounds.

Background/purpose: Osseointegration potential is greatly depended on the interaction between bone cells and dental implant surface. Since zirconia ceramic has a bioinert surface, functionalization of the surface with an organic compound allylamine was conducted to overcome its drawback of minimal interaction with the surrounding bone.

Materials And Methods: The zirconia surface was initially treated with argon glow discharge plasma (GDP), then combined with amine plasma at three different conditions of 50-W, 75-W and 85-W, to prepare the final samples.

Mechanical interatomic bond formation under ultrahigh pressure induced by laser-driven shock waves has been demonstrated for C-C, C-O, and O-O bonds. In this study, molecules generated in primary amine solutions irradiated with high-intensity lasers were identified. When methylamine or ethylamine was dissolved in methanol or ethanol, molecules likely formed through C-C or O-N bonds between the amine and alcohol were detected.

Heterogeneity engineering provides an effective route to manipulate the chemical and physical properties of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) but is still under development for their single-crystal form. Here, we report the strategy based on a combination of the template-assisted modulated synthesis with a one-pot crystallization-reduction method to directly construct ordered macro-microporous single crystals of an amine-linked three-dimensional (3D) COF (OM-COF-300-SR). In this strategy, the colloidal crystal-templating synthesis not only assists the formation of ordered macropores but also greatly facilitates the in situ conversion of linkages (from imine to amine) in the COF-300 single crystals.
