The health threat of arsenic is well-known, and the U.S. EPA recommends maximum contaminant level to be 0.01 ppm or less for in drinking water. Therefore, advanced treatment processes are needed finished water meet required regulations. Adsorption considered a expensive procedure that safer handle than precipitation, ion exchange, membrane filtration. Activated alumina (AA) most commonly used adsorbent removal from aqueous solutions. However, conventional porous solids including AA have...

Abstract It is commonly accepted that a large π-conjugated system necessary to realize low-energy electronic transitions. Contrary this prevailing notion, we present new class of light-emitters utilizing simple benzene core. Among different isomeric forms diacetylphenylenediamine (DAPA), o - and p -DAPA are fluorescent, whereas m not. Remarkably, the lightest (FW = 192) molecule displaying red emission. A systematic modification DAPA allows construction library emitters covering entire...

Molecular emitters simultaneously generating light at different wavelengths have wide applications. With a small molecule, however, it is challenging to realize two independent radiative pathways. We invented the first examples of dual-emissive single-benzene fluorophores (SBFs). Two emissive tautomers are generated by synthetic modulation hydrogen bond acidity, which opens up pathways for excited-state proton transfer. White produced delicate balance between energy and intensity emission...

We report here the resonance Raman spectra and quantum chemical calculations of for β-carotene 13,13'-diphenyl-β-carotene. The first aim this approach was to test robustness method used modeling β-carotene, assess whether it could accurately predict vibrational properties derivatives in which conjugated substituents had been introduced. DFT calculations, using B3LYP functional combination with 6-311G(d,p) basis set, were able influence two phenyl connected molecule, although these deeply...

ConspectusSingle-benzene fluorophores (SBFs) are small molecules that produce visible light by using only one benzene ring as the sole aromatic core. This Account centers around chemistry of a new class SBF we accidentally discovered but rationally developed and refined afterward. In failed experiment took an unintended reaction pathway, encountered bright green fluorescence ortho-diacetylphenylenediamine (o-DAPA). Despite its uninspiring look, reminiscent textbook examples simple...

Multivariate (MTV) porous materials exhibit unique structural complexities based on their diverse spatial arrangements of multiple building block combinations. These possess potential synergistic functionalities that exceed the sum individual components. However, exponentially increasing design complexity these poses significant challenges for accurate ground-state configuration prediction and design. To address this, we propose a Hamiltonian model quantum computing integrates compositional,...

Abstract The removal of copper ions from an aqueous solution by both adsorption onto mesostructured silica containing magnetite (MSM) and magnetic separation were investigated. Magnetite (core) was used as a carrier material for separation, while amine-functionalized (shell) heavy metal ion adsorbent. pore properties, phase the prepared materials measured N2 sorptometer, vibration sample magnetometer, powder x-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. After coating, magnetite-core MSMs maintained...

Organic solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) offer improved safety and flexibility, but they face challenges with low ionic conductivity at room temperature. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) present a promising solution by preventing segmental motion facilitating Li+ ion transfer through nanoporous channels regularly aligned anionic groups. In particular, dissociating ions from these immobilized groups is crucial for increasing conductivity. However, the design of COFs electron-delocalized soft...

Abstract The effects of the framework and/or textural porosities and functional group densities functionalized HMS on metal adsorption capacities were examined. Mercapto concentration was weakly correlated with pore size surface area supports, but strongly dependent volume. In case adsorbents a well‐developed porosity, uptake mercury ions increased an increase in mercapto concentration, while porosity show slight concentration. characteristics lead showed similar absorption trend to that...
