By quantifying the absorption of black carbon (BC), brown (BrC) and lensing effect, we found that BrC dominates total at 450 nm, largest contribution proportion could reach 78.3% during heavy pollution. The average enhancement (Eabs) 530 nm was only 1.38, indicating BC is not coated well here. value Ångstrom exponent (AAE) between 5.3, suggesting a high concentration in Wangdu. CHN+ greatest co...

The nitroarene dioxygenases are in the class of Rieske iron-containing oxygenases that incorporate atmospheric oxygen into substrates via electrophilic attack on the substrate. In their native role, the nitroarene dioxygenases start degradative pathways by hydroxylating nitro-substituted, and adjacent unsubstituted carbons of nitroaromatic compounds. The reaction yields the corresponding nitro-...

In a metal-free procedure, chelating thiol groups and an electrophile react to assemble a robust, conjugated porous polymer with pendant aldehyde functionalities. These groups are able to reduce Ag(i) ions to generate, in situ, Ag(0) nanoparticles evenly dispersed in the polymer matrix. The Ag(0)-polymer composite enables selective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds as a heterogeneous cataly...

The title compound, C(12)H(9)NO(2)S, belongs to the nitro-gen-containing group of heterocyclic organic compounds and crystallized with two mol-ecules per asymmetric unit. In the crystal, both molecules form inversion dimers linked by pairs of O-H-O hydrogen bonds. Weak symmetry-related C-H-O inter-actions link the carboxyl dimers along b axis. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings i...

An efficient Pd catalyst for the transformation of aryl chlorides, triflates, and nonaflates to nitroaromatics has been developed. This reaction proceeds under weakly basic conditions and displays a broad scope and excellent functional group compatibility. Moreover, this method allows for the synthesis of aromatic nitro compounds that cannot be accessed efficiently via other nitration protocols...

In this review, we describe the development by our research group of highly functionalized heterogeneous Olympic medal metal (gold, silver, and copper) nanoparticle catalysts using hydrotalcite as a support, aimed towards Green and Sustainable Chemistry. Olympic medal metal nanoparticles can cooperate with the basic sites on the hydrotalcite surface, providing unique and high performance cataly...
