Dibromoethane is a widespread, persistent organic pollutant. Biochars are known mediators of reductive dehalogenation by layered Fe-Fe hydroxides (green rust), which can reduce 1,2-dibromoethane to innocuous bromide and ethylene. However, the critical characteristics that determine mediator functionality are lesser known.

The dimeric (gemini) as well as metallosurfactants exhibit enhanced physicochemical properties compared with conventional surfactants. By uniting the benefits of both, a series of novel dimeric metallosurfactants of the type (12-2-12)[MBr] (M = Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) was successfully prepared by the reaction of the dimeric surfactant bis(,-dimethyl--dodecyl)ethylene-1,2-diammonium dibromide, 12-2-12, and the MBr salt. Structures and magnetic properties of the materials were studied comprehensively in the solid state, while their micellization was explored in solution.

We report the synthesis and characterization of a series of BNP-incorporated borafluorenate heterocycles formed via thermolysis reactions of pyridylphosphine and bis(phosphine)-coordinated borafluorene azides. The use of diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine (PyPhP), trans-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene (PhP(H)C═C(H)PPh), and bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (PhPC(H)PPh) as stabilizing ligands resulted in Staudinger reactions to form complex heterocycles with four- (BNP, BNPC, PN) and five-membered (BNPC and BNPC) rings, which were successfully isolated and fully characterized by multinuclear NMR and X-ray crystallography. However, when bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene (PhP-Ph-PPh) was used as the ligand in a reaction with 9-bromo-9-borafluorene (BF-Br), due to the close proximity of the donor P atoms, the diphosphine-stabilized borafluoronium ion with an unusual borafluorene dibromide anion was formed.

Discovery of green and novel synthetic routes for nanoparticles (NPs) has drawn a lot of interest due to the distinct nano size and unusual features as well as applications of such particles. Ionic liquid-based surfactants (ILBSs) and gemini ionic liquid-based surfactants (GILBSs) have become some of the best choices to be used as inducers or dispersing agents for the fabrication of nanoparticles. This work involves the synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, and surface property evaluation of three novel GILBSs (4a-c), which incorporate the imidazolium cation as the polar head with an ethylene spacer.

Brominated organic compounds such as 1,2-dibromoethane (1,2-DBA) are highly toxic groundwater contaminants. Multi-element compound-specific isotope analysis bears the potential to elucidate the biodegradation pathways of 1,2-DBA in the environment, which is crucial information to assess its fate in contaminated sites. This study investigates for the first time dual C-Br isotope fractionation during in vivo biodegradation of 1,2-DBA by two anaerobic enrichment cultures containing organohalide-respiring bacteria (i.
