Fluorine and Bromine Dual-Doped Nanoporous Carbons: Preparation and Surface Chemistry Studies. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:38618-38628. [PMID: 39310138 PMCID: PMC11411662 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c04179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024]
Abstract
A novel method for the concurrent introduction of fluorine and bromine into the surface of nanoporous activated carbon (NAC) is evaluated. According to the method, the preheated NAC was treated with 1,2-dibromotetrafluoroethane at elevated temperatures (400-800 °C). Potentiometric and elemental analysis, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and 19F solid-state NMR were used to study the NAC microstructure and changes in surface chemistry. The specific modification temperature was found to have a decisive influence on the resulting halogen content of the NAC surface. About 1.5 mmol g-1 of bromine and only 0.5 mmol g-1 of fluorine are chemisorbed on the NAC surface when dual-doped at 400 °C. The fluorination efficiency increases dramatically to 1.84-2.22 mmol g-1 when the process temperature is increased to 500-700 °C. Under the same conditions, the bromination efficiency unexpectedly decreases to 0.66-1.32 mmol g-1. Since halogen-containing groups undergo significant thermal decomposition around 800 °C, the overall halogenation efficiency decreases, accordingly. Both the volume and surface area of the micropores decrease moderately when halogen-containing groups are introduced into the carbon surface layer. Fluorine and bromine are unevenly distributed in the porous structure of the dual-doped NACs, and the outer surface is more halogen-rich than the inner surface of the micropores. XPS and 19F solid-state NMR revealed the selective formation of CF2 groups in the NAC surface layer independent of the temperature. In contrast, the percentage of semi-ionic fluorine in the form of CF groups directly bonded to the π-electron system of the carbon matrix increases significantly with temperature.

Abstract
According to the proposed pyrolytic method, granular activated carbon (AC) Norit 830 W was functionalized by thermal treatment of AC in hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) gases, pentafluoroethane and 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane, at 400-800 °C. This method does not require activation by plasma and photons. Chemical and elemental analysis showed that the pyrolytic treatment provides a loading of 2.95 mmol (5.6 wt%) of fluorine per gram of AC. Nitrogen adsorption measurements indicated that the microporous structure contracted when AC was treated with HFC at temperatures above 400 °C. Thermogravimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) with attenuated total reflectance (ATR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) demonstrated the evolution of oxygen-containing and fluorine-containing groups to more thermostable groups with treatment temperature. The fluorine-containing groups grafted at high temperature, above 600 °C exhibited the highest thermal stability up to 1250 °C in dry argon. From the data of XPS and solid-state 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy data, the grafted fluorine exists in several types of grafted F-containing groups, the HFC residues. By changing the thermal regime of fluorination, the composition of fluorine-containing groups on a carbon surface can be regulated. Isolated fluoroalkyl groups can be grafted at temperatures of 400-500 °C, while at 600 °C and above, the semi-ionic fluorine groups increase significantly. The hydrophobized surface demonstrated the ability to effectively decompose H2O2 in methanol solutions.

Abstract
Microenvironment regulation of M-N4 single-atom catalysts (SACs) is a promising way to tune their catalytic properties toward the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction. However, strategies that can effectively introduce functional groups around the M-N4 sites through strong covalent bonding and under mild reaction conditions are highly desired. Taking the hydrophilic Ni-N4 SAC as a representative, we report herein a [2+1] cycloaddition reaction between Ni-N4 and in situ generated difluorocarbene (F2C:), and enable the surface fluorocarbonation of Ni-N4, resulting in the formation of a super-hydrophobic Ni-N4-CF2 catalyst. Meanwhile, the mild reaction conditions allow Ni-N4-CF2 to inherit both the electronic and structural configuration of the Ni-N4 sites from Ni-N4. Enhanced electrochemical CO2-to-CO Faradaic efficiency above 98 % is achieved in a wide operating potential window from -0.7 V to -1.3 V over Ni-N4-CF2. In situ spectroelectrochemical studies reveal that a highly hydrophobic microenvironment formed by the -CF2- group repels asymmetric H-bonded water at the electrified interface, inhibiting the hydrogen evolution reaction and promoting CO production. This work highlights the advantages of [2+1] cycloaddition reactions on the covalent modification of N-doped carbon-supported catalysts.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) are easy-obtained nanoparticles with wide range of biological activity; however, their toxicity after prolonged exposure is poorly investigated. So, in vitro and in vivo toxicity of CDs with the surfaces enriched with hydroxylated hydrocarbon chains and methylene groups (CD_GE), carboxyl and phenol groups accompanied with nitrogen (CD_3011), trifluoromethyl (CDF19) or toluidine and aniline groups (CDN19) were aimed to be discovered. CDs' in vitro toxicity was assessed on A549 cells (real-time cell analysis of impedance, fluorescence microscopy) after 24 h of incubation, and we observed no changes in cell viability and morphology. CDs' in vivo toxicity was assessed on C57Bl6 mice after multiple dosages (5 mg/kg subcutaneously) for 14 days. Lethality (up to 50%) was observed in CDN19 and CD_3011 groups on different days of dosing, accompanied by toxicity signs in case of CD_3011. There were no changes in serum biochemical parameters except Urea (increased in CDF19 and CD_3011 groups), nor substantial kidney, liver, and spleen injuries. The most impactful for all organs were also CD_3011 and CDF19, causing renal tubule injury and liver blood supply violation. Thus, CDs with a surface enriched with oxygen- and nitrogen-containing functional groups might be toxic after multiple everyday dosing, without, however, significant damages of internal organs in survived animals.

Abstract
Residues of oxytetracycline (OTC), a veterinary antibiotic and growth promoter, can be present in animal-derived foods; their consumption is harmful to human health and their presence must therefore be detected and regulated. However, the maximum residue limit is low, and consequently highly sensitive and accurate detectors are required to detect the residues. In this study, a novel highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for the detection of OTC was developed using a screen-printed electrode modified with fluorine-doped activated carbon (F-AC/SPE) combined with a novel deep eutectic solvent (DES). The modification of activated carbon by doping with fluorine atoms (F-AC) enhanced the adsorption and electrical activity of the activated carbon. The novel hydrophobic DES was prepared from tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBABr) and a fatty acid (malonic acid) using a green synthesis method. The addition of the DES increased the electrochemical response of F-AC for OTC detection; furthermore, it induced preconcentration of OTC, which increased its detectability. The electrostatic interactions between DES and OTC as well as the adsorption of OTC on the surface of the modified electrode through H-bonding and π-π interactions helped in OTC detection, which was quantified based on the decrease in the anodic peak potential (E pa = 0.3 V) of AC. The electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Under optimum conditions, the calibration plot of OTC exhibited a linear response in the range 5-1500 μg L-1, with a detection limit of 1.74 μg L-1. The fabricated electrochemical sensor was successfully applied to determine the OTC in shrimp pond and shrimp samples with recoveries of 83.8-100.5% and 93.3-104.5%, respectively. In addition to the high sensitivity of OTC detection, the proposed electrochemical sensor is simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly.
