Gold Nanorods (AuNRs) and Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 (ZIF-8) Core-Shell Nanostructure-Based Electrochemical Sensor for Detecting Neurotransmitters.

ABSTRACT: The development of novel electrode materials for rapid and sensitive detection of neurotransmitters in the human body is of great significance for early disease diagnosis and personalized therapy. Herein, gold nanorod@zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (AuNR@ZIF-8) core-shell nanostructures were prepared by controlled encapsulation of gold nanorods within a ZIF-8 assembly. The designed AuNR@ZIF-8 nanostructures have uniform morphology, good dispersion, a large specific surface area, and an average size of roughly 175 nm. Compared with individual ZIF-8 and AuNR-modified electrodes, the obtained core-shell-structured AuNR@ZIF-8 nanocomposite structure-modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic performance in the determination of dopamine (DA) and serotonin (ST). The designed AuNR@ZIF-8 exhibited a wide linear range of 0.1-50 μM and low detection limit (LOD, 0.03 μM, S/N = 3) for the determination of DA, as well as a linear range of 0.1-25 μM and low LOD (0.007 μM, S/N = 3) for monitoring ST. The improved performance is attributed to the synergistic effect of the high conductivity of AuNRs and multiple catalytic sites of ZIF-8. The good electroanalytical ability of AuNR@ZIF-8 for detection of DA and ST can provide a guide to efficiently and rapidly monitor other neurotransmitters and construct novel electrochemical sensors.

Reversed Crystal Growth of RHO Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (ZIF).

Project description:RHO zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), Zn1.33 (O.OH)0.33 (nim)1.167 (pur), crystals with a rhombic dodecahedral morphology were synthesized by a solvothermal process. The growth of the crystals was studied over time using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analyses, and a reversed crystal growth mechanism was revealed. Initially, precursor materials joined together to form disordered aggregates, which then underwent surface recrystallization forming a core-shell structure, in which a disordered core is encased in a layer of denser, less porous crystal. When the growth continued, the shell became less and less porous, until it was a layer of true single crystal. The crystallization then extended from the surface to the core over a six-week period until, eventually, true single crystals were formed.

Rhodamine B degradation by nanosized zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8).

Project description:Adsorption and photodegradation of rhodamine B by ZIF-8 nanocrystals were studied using spectroscopic techniques coupled with density functional theory (DFT) cluster calculations. A fast adsorption rate was observed in the dark, but upon exposure to visible light or UV irradiation the adsorption rate noticeably increased. Although several studies previously reported this phenomenon involving bulk ZIF-8 powder, this is the first mechanistic study to our knowledge that demonstrates adsorption and degradation of rhodamine B by nanosized ZIF-8 under various light conditions. The combined study of N2 sorption pore analysis and surface-sensitive X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed the surface adsorption was mainly due to the open metal sites and surface groups of nanoporous ZIF-8. The fluorescence studies suggested ZIF-8 nanocrystals were able to generate hydroxyl radicals in water but only under UV illumination. The work presented here provides an insight into understanding nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the removal of organic molecules from wastewater.

Core-Shell Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks for Enhanced Hydrogen Storage.

Project description:Core-shell ZIF-8@ZIF-67- and ZIF-67@ZIF-8-based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) were synthesized solvothermally using a seed-mediated methodology. Transmission electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, line scan, elemental mapping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy analyses were performed to confirm the formation of a core-shell structure with the controlled Co/Zn elemental composition of ∼0.50 for both the core-shell ZIFs. The synthesized core-shell ZIF-8@ZIF-67 and ZIF-67@ZIF-8 frameworks conferred enhanced H2 (2.03 and 1.69 wt %) storage properties at 77 K and 1 bar, which are ca. 41 and 18%, respectively, higher than that of the parent ZIF-8. Notably, the distinctly remarkable H2 storage properties shown by both the core-shell ZIFs over the bimetallic Co/Zn-ZIF and the physical mixture of ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 clearly evidenced their unique structural properties (confinement of porosity) and elemental heterogeneity due to the core-shell morphology of the outperforming core-shell ZIFs. Moreover, H2 adsorption isotherm data of these frameworks are best fitted with the Langmuir model (R 2 ≥ 0.9999). Along with the remarkably enhanced H2 storage capacities, the core-shell ZIFs also displayed an improved CO2 capture behavior. Hence, we demonstrated here that the controlled structural features endorsed by the rationally designed porous materials may find high potential in H2 storage applications.

High-aspect ratio zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) nanoplates for hydrocarbon separation membranes.

Project description:Metal-organic frameworks with high aspect ratios have the potential to yield high-performance gas separation membranes. We demonstrate the scalable synthesis of high–aspect ratio zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)–8 nanoplates via a direct template conversion method in which high aspect ratio–layered Zn hydroxide sheets [Zn5(NO3)2(OH)8] were used as the sacrificial precursor. Successful phase conversion occurs as a result of the collaboration of low template stability and delayed delivery of 2-methylimidazole in weakly interacting solvents, particularly using acetone. When the ZIF-8 nanoplates with an average aspect ratio of 20 were shear aligned in the 6FDA-DAM polymer matrix by bar coating, the separation performance for propylene/propane far surpassed that of the previously reported mixed matrix and polymeric membranes, showing a propylene permeability of 164 Barrer and selectivity of 33.4 at 40 weight % loadings.

Thiosemicarbazone modified zeolitic imidazolate framework (TSC-ZIF) for mercury(ii) removal from water.

Project description:Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8), and their derivatives, have been drawing increasing attention due to their thermal and chemical stability. The remarkable stability of ZIF-8 in aqueous and high pH environments renders it an ideal candidate for the removal of heavy metals from wastewater. In this study, we present the preparation of novel aldehyde-based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (Ald-ZIF) through the integration of mixed-linkers: 2-methylimidazole (MIM) and imidazole-4-carbaldehyde (AldIM). The prepared Ald-ZIFs were post-synthetically modified with bisthiosemicarbazide (Bisthio) and thiosemicarbazide (Thio) groups, incorporating thiosemicarbazone (TSC) functionalities to the core of the framework. This modification results in the formation of TSC-functionalized ZIF derivatives (TSC-ZIFs). Thiosemicarbazones are versatile metal chelators, hence, adsorption properties of TSC-ZIFs for the removal of mercury(ii) from water were explored. Removal of mercury(ii) from homoionic aqueous solutions, binary and tertiary systems in competition with lead(ii) and cadmium(ii) under ambient conditions and neutral pH are reported in this study. MIM3.5:Thio1:Zn improved the removal efficiency of mercury(ii) from water, up to 97% in two hours, with an adsorption capacity of 1667 mg g-1. Desorption of mercury(ii) from MIM3.5:Thio1:Zn was achieved under acidic conditions, regenerating MIM3.5:Thio1:Zn for five cycles of mercury(ii) removal. TSC-ZIF derivatives, designed and developed here, represent a new class of dynamically functionalized adsorption material displaying the advantages of simplicity, efficiency, and reusability.

Thermally treated zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) for visible light photocatalytic degradation of gaseous formaldehyde.

Project description:The development of wide-spectrum responsive photocatalysts for efficient formaldehyde (HCHO) removal is highly desired yet remains a great challenge. Here we successfully converted zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), one of the most well-studied metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), from routine ultraviolet-driven to novel broad-spectrum-driven photocatalyst via a facile thermal treatment. The isocyanate groups (-N[double bond, length as m-dash]C[double bond, length as m-dash]O) formed in the thermally treated ZIF-8 (ZIF-8-T) is crucial in enabling the superior photocatalytic performance in formaldehyde degradation. Specifically, the best-performing ZIF-8-T sample showed around 2.1 and 9.4 times the HCHO adsorption amount and the solar photocatalytic degradation rate, respectively, of pristine ZIF-8. In addition, ZIF-8-T exhibited visible light (λ ≥ 400 nm) photocatalytic HCHO degradation performance, photo-converting 72% and nearly 100% of 20 ppm and 10 ppm HCHO within 1 hour, respectively. This work affords new insights and knowledge that inspire and inform the design and development of MOF-based photocatalysts with broad-spectrum responses for efficient air purification operations.

Project description:B-hive? A family of crystalline materials analogous to porous AlPO(4) but based on boron imidazolate frameworks (BIFs) can be formed by the crosslinking of various presynthesized boron imidazolates with monovalent cations (Li(+) and Cu(+), see picture). This synthetic method is capable of generating a large variety of open frameworks, ranging from the four-connected zeolitic sodalite type to the three-connected chiral (10,3)-a type.

Optimized CO<sub>2</sub> Capture of the Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework ZIF-8 Modified by Solvent-Assisted Ligand Exchange.

Project description:Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks, like ZIF-8 and related structures, have shown great potential for the capture of carbon dioxide. Modifying their structure by exchanging part of the constituent organic ligands is a proven method for enhancing the capacity to absorb CO2. In this work, we performed solvent-assisted ligand exchange (SALE) on nanosized ZIF-8 (nZIF-8) with a series of functionalized imidazole derivatives (exchange percentages, after 24 h): 2-bromoimidazole (19%), 2-chloroimidazole (29%), 2-trifluoromethylbenzimidazole (4%), 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (4%), and 2-nitroimidazole (54%). The sodalite topology and porosity of nZIF-8 were maintained with all SALE modifications. Low-pressure CO2 adsorption of nZIF-8 (38.5 cm3 g-1) at STP was appreciably enhanced with all mixed-linker SALE products. Using halogenated (-Cl, -Br, and -CF3) imidazole derivatives in a 24 h SALE treatment resulted in increases between 11 and 22% in CO2 adsorption, while the thiol (-SH)- and nitro (-NO2)-functionalized SALE products led to 32 and 100% increases in CO2 uptakes, respectively. These CO2 uptakes were further optimized by varying the SALE treatment time. The SHbIm- and NO2Im-exchanged SALE products of nZIF-8 show 87 and 98 cm3 g-1 of CO2 uptakes after 60 and 120 h of SALE, respectively. These are record high CO2 adsorptions for all reported ZIF derivatives at low-pressure conditions.

Meltable, Glass-Forming, Iron Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks.

Project description:We describe the first meltable iron-based zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), denoted MUV-24. This material, elusive from direct synthesis, is obtained from the thermal treatment of [Fe3(im)6(Him)2], which yields Fe(im)2 upon loss of the neutral imidazole molecules. Different crystalline phase transformations are observed upon further heating, until the material melts at 482 °C. Vitrification upon cooling of the liquid phase gives rise to the first Fe-metal-organic framework glass. X-ray total scattering experiments show that the tetrahedral environment of the crystalline solids is maintained in the glass, whereas nanoindentation measurements reveal an increase in Young's modulus, in agreement with stiffening upon vitrification.

Hierarchical porous zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) and ZnO@N-doped carbon for selective adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants.

Project description:Removing organic contaminants such as dyes from water is essential to purify wastewater. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and ZnO@N-doped C are reported as effective adsorbents and photocatalysts for the adsorption and degradation of organic dyes. The materials showed effective and selective adsorption toward anionic dyes such as methyl blue (MeB) dye in the presence of fluorescein (FLU) dye. The adsorption capacities of ZnO@N-doped C for MeB and FLU dyes are 900 mg g-1 and 100 mg g-1, respectively. According to UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) data, ZnO@N-doped C has a lower bandgap (2.07 eV) than ZIF-8 (4.34 eV) and ZnO (3.12 eV). Thus, ZnO@N-doped C serves as an effective photocatalyst for the degradation of both dyes under UV exposure. The degradation efficiency capacity of the dye (50 mg L-1) is >90% using 200 mg L-1 of the photocatalyst. The mechanism of adsorption and photocatalysis is investigated. The photodegradation pathway of the dye involved the generation of oxidative hydroxy radicals (OH˙), which can degrade the dyes. The degradation products of FLU were recorded using mass spectrometry.
