Insights into N-doping in single-walled carbon nanotubes for enhanced activation of superoxides: a mechanistic study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Emerging characteristics upon nitrogen-doping were differentiated in the activation of superoxides over single-walled carbon nanotubes. Both experimental and theoretical studies revealed that enhanced peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation is ascribed to a nonradical process while persulfate (PS) activation is accelerated via directly oxidizing water, yet hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) activation is inert to N-doping. This study details the first insights into versatile N-doping in carbocatalysis for organic oxidation in sustainable remediation.

Theoretical insights into the encapsulation of anticancer Oxaliplatin drug into single walled carbon nanotubes
The present work was an attempt to evaluate the potentialities of using SWCNTs as nanovectors for drug delivery of anticancer drug Oxaliplatin. First-principles van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF) calculations are used to investigate the incorporation of oxaliplatin inside the typical semiconducting and metallic single wall carbon nanotubes with various diameters (SWCNTs). Adsorption ener...
متن کاملDFT Study of N-hydroxyurea Adsorption Behavior onto Pristine and Iron-doped Single-walled Carbon Nanotube
The interactions between N-hydroxyurea (NHU) as anticancer drug and SWCNTs (pure and Fe-doped) were investigated with density functional theory. In this study, large long-range corrected CAM-B3LYP and B3LYP were employed to investigate the stability of the different NHU-CNT and NHU/Fe-CNT complexes in the gas phase and solution (water). The presence of an iron atom would create suitable space o...
متن کاملRadius Dependence of Hydrogen Storage Inside Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes in an Array
In this study, we have investigated radius dependence of hydrogen storage within armchair (n,n) single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) in a square arrays. To this aim, we have employed equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Our simulations results reveal that radius of carbon nanotubes are an important and influent factor in hydrogen distribution inside carbon nanotubes and consequentl...
متن کاملFunctionalization of the Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes by Sulfur Dioxide and Electric Field Effect, a Theoretical Study on the Mechanism
In this study, kinetics and mechanism of the sulfur dioxide adsorption on the single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) are investigated. Three single-walled carbon nanotubes, including the armchair (6,6), chiral (6,5) and zigzag (6,0) CNTs were chosen as the models and the different orientations of SO2 molecule relative to the CNT axis were considered. The B3LYP functional within the 6-3...
متن کاملScreening the missing electron: nanochemistry in action.
The excitement of nano-test-tube chemistry in a single-walled carbon nanotube is exemplified in our study on electron doping in carbon nanotubes. Electron doping through the 1D van Hove singularity of single-walled carbon nanotubes is realized via a chemical reaction of an encapsulated organocerium compound, CeCp3. The decomposition of CeCp3 inside the carbon nanotubes increases the doping leve...
