Mechanochemical Halogenations and Rearrangement of Sydnones: Insight into Reaction Conditions and Mechanism

AbstractNew mechanochemical methods for sydnone halogenation and insights into an efficient ring rearrangement yielding 1,3,4‐oxadiazolin‐2‐ones by heated ball‐milling are reported herein. Using equimolar amounts of N‐chlorosuccinimide (NCS), oxone and sodium chloride, 3‐phenylsydnone was quantitatively chlorinated in short reaction time and high yields. Moreover, an efficient method for the bromination of sydnones was developed by mixing equimolar amount of N‐bromosuccinimide (NBS), Ac2O and a sydnone in a vibratory ball‐mill, in the absence of solvent, with excellent yields and a reduced environmental impact. When the reaction was heated while milling, a fast and efficient ring rearrangement into 1,3,4‐oxadiazolin‐2‐ones was observed. Insights concerning the mechanism of the reaction under solvent‐less conditions, supported by DFT calculations, are discussed. The scope of this reaction, including solid anhydrides, is presented.

Nucleophilic Fluoride Anion Delivery from Triazacyclononane-Supported Molecular Ca-F Complexes.

The major source of fluoride, namely calcium difluoride (CaF2), is derived from the mineral fluorspar. Recent advances in the activation of CaF2 via mechanochemical methods have inspired investigation of the fundamental properties of Ca-F bonds in molecular complexes. However, the paucity of well-defined molecular Ca-F-containing complexes undermines systematic understanding of the factors governing nucleophilic fluoride delivery. Here we report the use of a multidentate bis(phenoxide) ligand based on a 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (TACN) scaffold for the formation of well-defined Ca-F complexes and demonstrate their capabilities in fluoride delivery. Key to this synthesis is a desymmetrization step carried out on the TACN ligand within the Ca coordination sphere. A series of stable anionic dinuclear calcium fluoride complexes has then been accessed and characterized by NMR spectroscopy (critically by 19F NMR) and X-ray crystallography. Nucleophilic fluoride delivery can be used to generate C-F, Si-F and S-F bonds, with a notable advance over amide-derived ligand scaffolds being the reduced extent of side reactions derived from competing attack on the electrophile by the less nucleophilic O-donor anionic ligand set.

Layered high-entropy sulfides: boosting electrocatalytic performance for hydrogen evolution reaction by cocktail effects

Abstract This study explores high-entropy sulfides (HESs) as potential electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Novel Pa-3 and Pnma structured HESs containing Fe, Mn, Ni, Co and Mo, were synthesized via a facile mechanochemical method. Structural and chemical properties were extensively characterized using x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrocatalytic performance of four as-prepared HESs in alkaline electrolyte for HER reveals the remarkable outperformance compared to medium-entropy and conventional sulfides. Particularly, (Fe0.2Mn0.2Ni0.2Co0.2Mo0.2)S2 demonstrated outstanding activities, with minimal overpotentials (187 mV at 10 mA cm–2) and outstanding durability under harsh alkaline conditions (a mere polarization increase ΔE = 17 mV after 14 h via chronopotentiometry). The remarkable catalytic activities can be attributed to synergistic effects resulting from the cocktail effects within the high-entropy disulfide. The introduction of Mo contributes to the formation of a layered structure, which leads to an increased surface area and thus to a superior HER performance compared to other HES and conventional sulfides. This work demonstrates the promising potential of HES and underscores that further development for catalytic applications paves the way for innovative routes to new and more efficient active materials for HER catalysis.

Exploration of Pristine ZnO and Cobalt Doped ZnO for the Solar Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue Dye

The ZnO and Co-doped ZnO were prepared by eco-friendly and modest route, including thermal disintegration of zinc oxalate (ZnOx) and cobalt-zinc oxalate (CoZnOx) powders, respectively, from a mechano-chemical method. The process of conversion of metal/s oxalate dihydrate to the pristine ZnO and cobalt-doped ZnO was studied with TG-DTG and FTIR spectroscopy. ZnO and Co-doped ZnO crystallites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), UV–visible and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. Hexagonal Wurtzite crystallite structures of the aforementioned materials were illustrated from XRD data. The surface morphological investigation was done with SEM. EDX study confirms the elemental purity of materials. Chemical bonding information was obtained from FTIR spectra. Optical properties were studied from UV-visible and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Exploration of pristine ZnO and cobalt-doped ZnO for the solar photocatalytic degradation (PCD) of methylene blue dye has been done in a batch photoreactor. The various related parameters such as photocatalyst amount, initial concentration of dye and pH were also examined for maximum degradation efficiency for mentioned dye.

Synthesis of Ni–FeCeO2 by mechanochemical method for high-temperature water-gas shift reaction

Hydrocarbon fuels have caused significant environmental damage, leading to a search for renewable alternatives like hydrogen. The water-gas shift reaction (WGSR) is a key process in hydrogen production, especially in ammonia synthesis. Typically, WGSR occurs in two stages: low-temperature (LT-WGSR) at 180–250 °C and high-temperature (HT-WGSR) at 310–450 °C. Traditional HT-WGSR catalysts use Fe–Cr, but the presence of carcinogenic hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) poses environmental risks, necessitating safer alternatives. This study explores the replacement of chromium with aluminum (Al) and cerium (Ce) in Fe-based catalysts, synthesized via mechanochemical methods. Characterization revealed that Fe–Ce catalysts (85:15 ratio) exhibited superior thermal stability. Additionally, varying nickel (Ni) contents were tested to improve activity, with 10% Ni offering the best performance despite some methane by-products. The study also examined the impact of reduction and calcination temperatures, GHSV, and steam/gas ratios on the catalyst's efficiency.

The mechanical and dielectric properties of high-density Ti-doped MgAl2O4 ceramic prepared by non-hydrolytic sol-gel combined with mechanochemical method

The synthesis of MgAl2O4 requires high calcination temperatures which generally result in larger grain sizes and smaller specific surface areas. These factors pose challenges in achieving high-density MgAl2O4 ceramic. This study introduces an innovative approach that has successfully sintered MgAl2O4 ceramic at 1500 ℃ with MgAl2O4 powder prepared using a Non-Hydrolytic Sol-Gel (NHSG) method combined with a mechanochemical method. The sintered MgAl2O4 ceramic with 2 wt% TiCl4 doping displays an apparent porosity of only 0.09 %, a flexural strength of 183 MPa, a relative permittivity of 8.7, a quality factor of 77000 GHz, and a frequency temperature coefficient of −59.4 ppm/℃. The introduction of titanium ions causes lattice distortion and cationic vacancies, which promotes sintering and improves the mechanical and dielectric properties of the resulting ceramic. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of NHSG combined with the mechanochemical method in preparing MgAl2O4 ceramic with enhanced sintering properties.

Selective Detection of Cyanide Ion Using Mechno-Chemical Synthesized Fluorophore: 3-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-1-(phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one

A novel probe has been developed to find the cyanide ion pollutant in our environment. A new chalcone analog (E)-3-(4- (diphenyl amino) phenyl)-1-(phenyl) prop-2-en-1-one was synthesized by solvents free mechano-chemical method. To detect numerous anions (CN−, F−, Cl−, Br−, NO3−, SO42−, PO43−, OH−, OAc−) in the DMSO medium, the probe's sensing capabilities were tested using UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy methods. The probe exhibited selectivity and sensitivity towards cyanide ions (CN−) in the presence of the various analytes. The interaction energies with the same anions and their sensing behavior through density functional theory (DFT) calculations were reported. The chalcone derivatives' higher electron affinity accelerates, which can also boost the compound's reactivity to cyanide anions following the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism.

Efficient carburization of high-entropy alloys from polyethylene microplastics using a green mechanochemical process to obtain excellent wave absorbing performance

Polyethylene as a major white pollutant has a significant negative impact on the environment and the human health. Beneficial recycling of polyethylene through mechanochemical processes not only can eliminate environmental hazards, but also enable some beneficial industrial applications. In this work, polyethylene was used as the raw materials of carburization of FeCoNiMn high-entropy alloys (HEAs) by a green mechanochemical method. The phase structure, magnetic properties, high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and electromagnetic-wave absorbing performance of the obtained carburized HEAs were investigated in detail. The carburized-FeCoNiMn HEAs exhibited excellent corrosion resistance, suggesting great application potential for use in harsh environments. Besides, the impedance matching was optimized and the electromagnetic-wave absorption bandwidth was expanded by this carburization process. Specifically, the reflection loss of C10 (FeCoNiMnC0.1) at 8.88 GHz reached −65.07 dB at a thickness of 2.79 mm, and both the C50 (FeCoNiMnC0.5) and C90 (FeCoNiMnC0.9) exhibited a maximum absorption bandwidth of 5.45 GHz. This work provides a new concept of utilizing common microplastic pollutants to achieve efficient carburization of HEAs by a green mechanochemical process.

General Approach to Hydrolysis Resistive Aluminum Nitride and Its High-Performance Thermal Interface Materials.

Aluminum nitride (AlN), noted for its excellent thermal conductivity and exceptional electrical insulation, presents a promising alternative to traditional ceramic particles in thermal interface materials (TIMs). However, its broader adoption in practical applications is limited by performance degradation due to the vulnerability of its crystal structure to ubiquitous moisture. This study introduces a dual solution, utilizing a mechanochemical method to design a dense outer layer of Galinstan liquid metal (LM) that simultaneously enhances AlN's resistance to hydrolysis and improves its thermal performance in TIM applications. The high surface free energy of the LM layer imparts hydrophobic properties to the AlN surface and, combined with outer metal oxides, forms a dual-layer protective barrier that prevents water penetration, significantly enhancing the TIM's long-term stability in high-humidity conditions. Additionally, the LM layer at the interface improves the thixotropic properties of the TIM and enhances interfacial heat transport through the bridging effect of the LM, resulting in improved rheological mobility and thermal conductivity of the composite material. This win-win surface modification strategy opens opportunities for the practical and durable application of AlN in widespread electronic thermal management.

The reaction shows excellent atom economy, with a broad substrate generality.

CsPbBr3 and Cs2AgBiBr6 Composite Thick Films with Potential Photodetector Applications

This paper investigates the optoelectronic properties of CsPbBr3, a lead-based perovskite, and Cs2AgBiBr6, a lead-free double perovskite, in composite thick films synthesized using mechanochemical and hot press methods, with poly(butyl methacrylate) as the matrix. Comprehensive characterization was conducted, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV–visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis), and photoluminescence (PL). Results indicate that the polymer matrix does not significantly impact the crystalline structure of the perovskites but has a direct impact on the grain size and surface area, enhancing the interfacial charge transfer of the composites. Optical characterization indicates minimal changes in bandgap energies across all different phases, with CsPbBr3 exhibiting higher photocurrent than Cs2AgBiBr6. This is attributed to the CsPbBr3 superior charge carrier mobility. Both composites showed photoconductive behavior, with Cs2AgBiBr6 also demonstrating higher-energy (X-ray) photon detection. These findings highlight the potential of both materials for advanced photodetector applications, with Cs2AgBiBr6 offering an environmentally Pb-free alternative.

Modern Methods of Asbestos Waste Management as Innovative Solutions for Recycling and Sustainable Cement Production

Managing asbestos waste presents a significant challenge due to the widespread industrial use of this material, and the serious health and environmental risks it poses. Despite its unique properties, such as resistance to high temperatures and substantial mechanical strength, asbestos is a material with well-documented toxicity and carcinogenicity. Ensuring the safe removal and disposal of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) is crucial for protecting public health, the environment, and for reducing CO2 emissions resulting from inefficient waste disposal methods. Traditional landfill disposal methods have proven inadequate, while modern approaches—including thermal, chemical, biotechnological, and mechanochemical methods—offer potential benefits but also come with limitations. In particular, thermal techniques that allow for asbestos degradation can significantly reduce environmental impact, while also providing the opportunity to repurpose disposal products into materials useful for cement production. Cement, a key component of concrete, can serve as a sustainable alternative, minimizing CO2 emissions and reducing the need for primary raw materials. This work provides insights into research on asbestos waste management, offering a deeper understanding of key initiatives related to asbestos removal. It presents a comprehensive review of best practices, innovative technologies, and safe asbestos management strategies, with particular emphasis on their impact on sustainable development and CO2 emission reduction. Additionally, it discusses public health hazards related to exposure to asbestos fibers, and worker protection during the asbestos disposal process. As highlighted in the review, one promising method is the currently available thermal degradation of asbestos. This method offers real opportunities for repurposing asbestos disposal products for cement production; thereby reducing CO2 emissions, minimizing waste, and supporting sustainable construction.

Hydrogen‐bond‐regulated mechanochemical synthesis of covalent organic frameworks: cocrystal precursor strategy for confined assembly

Two‐dimensional imine covalent organic frameworks (2D imine‐COFs) are crystalline porous materials with broad application prospects. Despite the efforts into their design and synthesis, the mechanisms of their formation are still not fully understood. Herein, a one‐pot two‐step mechanochemical cocrystal precursor synthetic strategy is developed for efficient construction of 2D imine‐COFs. The mechanistic investigation demonstrated that the cocrystal precursors of 4,4',4''‐(1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4,6‐triyl)trianiline (TAPT) and p‐toluenesulphonic acid (PTSA) sufficiently regulate the crystalline structure of COF. Evidenced by characterizations and theoretical studies, a helical hydrogen‐bond network was constructed by the N‐H···O supramolecular synthons between amine and sulfate in TAPT‐PTSA, demonstrating the role of cocrystals in promoting the organized stacking of interlayer π‐π interactions, layer arrangement, and interlayer spacing, thus facilitating the orderly assembly of COFs. Moreover, the protonation degree of TAPT amines, which tuned nucleophilic directionality, enabled the sequential progression of intra‐ and interlayer imine condensation reactions, inhibiting the formation of amorphous polymers. The transformation from cocrystal precursors to COFs was achieved through comprehensive control of hydrogen bond and covalent bond sites. This work significantly advances the concept of hydrogen‐bond‐regulated COF assembly and its mechanochemical method in the design and synthesis of 2D imine‐COFs, further elucidating the mechanistic aspects of their mechanochemical synthesis.

TiO2/sericite composite was fabricated by mechano-chemical method followed by calcination using metatitanic acid and sericite as raw materials. The relative parameters, such as pH value, were optimized to ensure the best pigment properties of the composite. The results of XRD diffraction, SEM, IR showed that TiO2, with anatase as the main phase, coated evenly on the surfaces of sericite by forming SiOTi chemical bonds. The prepared TiO2/sericite composite possesses pigment properties similar to those of titanium white and also exhibits excellent photocatalytic performance. These two advantages, together with simple preparation process and low cost, indicate the large application potential of TiO2/sericite composite particles in the near future.

Mechanochemical oxidative complexation of copper(I) chloride with acetic acid, benzoic acid, their chloro derivatives and l-histidine affording anhydrous copper(II) complexes

This work reports solvent-free synthesis of copper(II)-carboxylates by grinding the reactants in solid state (the mechanochemical method). Here we used copper(I) salt to synthesize copper(II) complexes to demonstrate the potential of oxidative synthesis of the mechanochemical technique. The complexes were synthesized by grinding copper(I) chloride with a carboxylic acid together in 1:2 molar ratio in mortar and pestle. The carboxylic acids used were acetic acid, benzoic acid, 2-chloroacetic acid, 2-chlorobenzoic acid and l-histidine. The oxidative complexation occurred in the solid state producing anhydrous dimeric copper(II)-carboxylates (except that of l-histidine) in quantitative yield (>96%) having 1:2 metal to ligand ratio. The first evidence to oxidation of copper(I) to copper(II) ion was a change in color (pale to greenish blue) and a change in magnetic susceptibility from diamagnetic to paramagnetic value. The complexes were also characterized by elemental analysis, electronic absorption spectroscopy, FT-IR spectra, mass spectrometry, powder X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis. The electronic absorption, magnetic susceptibility, ESR and X-ray diffraction data supported a distorted square-planer geometry. This study provided for a distinct test in the form of magnetic susceptibility for the formation of copper(II)-complexes from a copper(I) salt. The dimeric nature of the complexes, except that of bis(histidinato)copper(II), was confirmed by the lower magnetic-moments (1.40–1.50 BM) than the spin only value (1.73 BM).

Optimized and nonTi-site doped synthesis of lithium titanate by mechanochemical method

The Li2CO3-ammonia-ballmilling synthesis system of Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) was optimized and doped Li and O by theirs adjacent elements Mg and F respectively. By adjusting the ballmilling parameter, the distribution of Li and Ti sources, the hydrolysis rate and different nucleophilic / electrophilic hydrolysis path of Ti, and the interaction between Li and Ti species can be effectively controlled. The temperature programmed calcination is beneficial to the formation of the middle state (Li2TiO3), obtaining the high quality LTO. Mg and F doping can further optimize the hydrolysis and condensation degree of Ti source, the number of crystal nucleus and the particle size. Therefore, the initial first discharged capability of Mg doped LTO and F doped LTO reach to 152.4 mAh/g and 163.1 mAh/g at 5 C respectively, corresponding 32.4 % and 41.7 % enhancing compared to LTO (115.1 mAh/g). Moreover, the discharge voltage of LTO-Mg decreases from 1.5 V to 1.3 V.

Stimuli-responsive sulfur-containing amino acid functionalized boron nitride nanosheets as nanocarriers via improved adhesion to enhance antibacterial performance against plant diseases

Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum severely impacts agricultural production, urgently requiring effective control measures. Herein, we designed a strategy via boron nitride nanosheets with enhanced adhesion ability as nanocarriers to improve the antibacterial efficacy of active ingredients. To achieve this, we utilized three sulfur-containing amino acids (SAAs), including methionine (MET), cysteine (CYS), and cystine (CYST) for the simultaneously exfoliation and functionalization of boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) through mechanochemical method, and compared their structure–activity relationship. The obtained BNNS-SAAs exhibited size around 160–250 nm and thickness near 1.5–2.0 nm. The presence of disulfide bond (S-S) within BNNS-CYS and BNNS-CYST promoted them with the responsiveness by redox stimuli. BNNS-CYST acquired highest functionalization degree of 63.44 % among three BNNS-SAAs. And tea tree essential oil (TTO) loading capacity within BNNS-SAAs was around 36.40–37.11 %. The existence of SAAs within BNNS significantly inhibited the volatilization of TTO via nanoconfinement effect fitting to Logistic model, specially, BNNS-CYST held with slowest release rate among the BN-based carriers, due to the stronger attachment or affinity. Furthermore, BNNS-CYST-TTO exhibited the most excellent synergistic antibacterial effect with the increased inhibition zone diameter by 26.89 % against Ralstonia solanacearum in comparison with pure TTO, with the minimum inhibition concentration reduced from 1.8 mg·mL−1 to 0.6 mg·mL−1. The enhanced antibacterial mechanism was proposed based on physical disruption via strong adhesion. BNNS-SAAs also presented superior adhesion and wettability on seed and foliar surfaces, and also promoted seed germination by providing more S nutrients, and exhibited no significant cytotoxicity. Our system provides a green and effective platform response to redox stimuli to load and release essential oils for application in bacterial wilt control.

Mechanochemical preparation and performance regulation mechanism of highly durable and multifunctional iron red nanocomposite pigments derived from natural mixed-dimensional palygorskite clay

Iron oxide red pigments are one of the most widely used inorganic red pigments around the world. It is always pursed to improve their physicochemical properties. Herein, a continuous mechanochemical method was employed to fabricate high-performance iron red nanocomposite pigments via anchoring α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles on the surface of natural mixed-dimensional palygorskite clay (MDPal). The mechanical force of twin-screw extrusion promoted the Si-OH groups of MDPal to coordinate with Fe3+ to form the precursor, while MDPal was activated with the residual H+ of the involved nitrate to accelerate the thermal diffusion of Al3+ into α-Fe2O3 crystal lattice, thus the nanocomposite pigments presented a bright yellowish-red color (L∗ ​= ​35.61, a∗ ​= ​33.10, b∗ ​= ​35.86, C∗ ​= ​48.80). Furthermore, the mixed-dimensional nanostructure of MDPal served as a good substrate for chemical bonding of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles to improve the dispersion and environmental stability of iron red pigments. Due to the synergistic effect of each component and the excellent thermal and chemical stability, the obtained nanocomposite pigments exhibited excellent application prospect as functional inorganic pigments for anti-corrosion coating, overglaze ceramic and coloring and reinforcing of polypropylene, respectively. It provided a facile strategy for preparation of high-performance multifunctional iron red pigments based on MDPal.

Design of a novel deep eutectic solvent for microextraction of Lissamine green B from food Samples: A green approach

The extraction of Lissamine Green B (LGB) from food matrices poses a challenge due to its low concentration and interference from other matrix compounds. In this study, a novel green approach utilizing a deep eutectic solvent (DES) for dispersive liquid microextraction (GDES- DLLME) of LGB is presented. The DES, formulated from eco-friendly components and synthesized through mechanochemical methods for the first time, presents a sustainable alternative to traditional solvents. The DES characterization was implemented via 1H and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (NMR) analysis. The microextraction procedure was optimized for maximum efficiency, considering factors such as extraction time, DES composition, and sample pH, THF volume, NaCl amount, sample volume etc. The developed method was then applied to various food samples using spectrophotometric detection for the quantitative analysis of LGB, including water samples, beverages and foods. Furthermore, analytical performance values such as limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), relative standard deviation (RSD), and preconcentration factor (PF) were calculated as 0.76 ng/mL, 2.56 ng/mL, % 4.6, and 22.5 respectively. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of simply generated DES as an extraction solvent and enabled sensitive and selective determination of LGB in complex food matrices. This eco-friendly method is promising for food safety and quality control applications, providing a sustainable solution for the analysis of LGBs in food.
