Fluorescence Detection of Pb2+ in Environmental Water Using Biomass Carbon Quantum Dots Modified with Acetamide-Glycolic Acid Deep Eutectic Solvent

In this study, a novel green fluorescent probe material, nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs), was prepared by a one-step hydrothermal synthesis method using walnut green skin as a carbon source and acetamide-glycolic acid deep eutectic solvent (AGADES) as a modifier. By covalent coupling, the amide chromophore in AGADES is designed to cover the surface of walnut green skin carbon quantum dots (W-CQDs), forming a fluorescence energy resonance effect and improving the fluorescence performance of the carbon quantum dots. The prepared N-CQDs have a uniform particle size distribution, and the fluorescence quantum efficiency has increased from 12.5% to 32.5%. Within the concentration range of 0.01~1000 μmol/L of Pb2+, the linear detection limit is 1.55 nmol/L, which can meet the trace detection of Pb2+ in the water environment, and the recycling rate reaches 97%. This method has been successfully applied to the fluorescence detection and reuse of Pb2+ in actual water bodies, providing new ideas and methods for the detection of heavy metal ions in environmental water.

Synthesis, topology, molecular docking and dynamics studies of o-phenylenediamine derivative

The N, N'-(1,2-phenylene) bis (1- (4- chlorophenyl) methanimine) (CS4) was synthesized and characterized by infrared (IR), absorption (UV-vis) and NMR (1H and 13C) spectral analyses. The structural parameters, vibrational frequencies, potential energy and the distribution analysis (PED) were calculated by using DFT with the basis set of B3LYP/cc-pVDZ and these spectral values were compared to the experimental values. HOMO and LUMO studied were performed in order to understand the stability and biological activity of the compound. The most reactive sites on the compound were investigated by utilizing MEP energy surface and Fukui function descriptor with the natural population analysis (NPA) of the charges. The study of the natural bond orbitals (NBO) reveals the delocalization of the intramolecular interaction of the charges in the compound. Additionally, topological investigations (ELF, LOL), determination of thermodynamic parameters and noncovalent interaction (NCI) study by using topology (RDG) analysis were also carried out. Finally, the molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations was carried out by examining against glycosylphosphatidylinositol phospholipase D inhibitor receptor for distinct protein targets (3MZG).
