AbstractThe reactivity between bis(pyridin‐2‐yl)diselane oPy2Se2 and ditellane oPy2Te2 (L1 and L2, respectively; oPy=pyridyn‐2‐yl) and I2/Br2 is discussed. Single‐crystal structure analysis revealed that the reaction of L1 with I2 yielded [(HL1+)(I−)⋅5/2I2]∞ (1) in which monoprotonated cations HL1+ template a self‐assembled infinite pseudo‐cubic polyiodide 3D‐network, while the reaction with Br2 yielded the dibromide HoPySeIIBr2 (2). The oxidation of L2 with I2 and Br2 yielded the compounds HoPyTeIII2 (3) and HoPyTeIVBr4 (6), respectively, whose structures were elucidated by X‐ray diffraction analysis. FT‐Raman spectroscopy measurements are consistent with a 3c–4e description of all the X−Ch−X three‐body systems (Ch=Se, Te; X=Br, I) in compounds 2, 3, HoPyTeIIBr2 (5), and 6. The structural and spectroscopic observations are supported by extensive theoretical calculations carried out at the DFT level that were employed to study the electronic structure of the investigated compounds, the thermodynamic aspects of their formation, and the role of noncovalent σ‐hole halogen and chalcogen bonds in the X⋅⋅⋅X, X⋅⋅⋅Ch and Ch⋅⋅⋅Ch interactions evidenced structurally.

trans-1-(4'-Methoxyphenyl)-3-methoxy-4-phenyl 3-methoxyazetidin-2-one (or 3-methoxyazetidin-2-one) is one of the important β-lactam derivatives with an ample range of bacterial activities yet few restrictions. To enhance the competency of the chosen 3-methoxyazetidin-2-one, microfibrils composed of copper oxide (CuO) and filter scraps of cigarette butts (CB) were chosen in the current work for developing a potential release formulation. The preparation of CuO-CB microfibrils required a simple reflux technique and a subsequent calcination treatment. The loading of 3-methoxyazetidin-2-one was processed via controlled magnetic stirring followed by centrifugation with microfibrils of CuO-CB. To confirm the loading efficiency, the 3-methoxyazetidin-2-one@CuO-CB complex was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and infrared spectroscopy. Compared to the CuO nanoparticles, the release profile of CuO-CB microfibrils indicates only 32% of the drug release in the first 1 h at pH 7.4. As a model organism, E. coli has been utilized for in vitro drug release dynamic studies. Based on the observed drug release data, it was found that the prepared formulation evades premature drug release and triggers the on-demand release of drug inside bacterial cells. The controlled drug release by 3-methoxyazetidin-2-one@CuO-CB microfibrils over a period of 12 h further ascertained the excellent bactericide delivery mechanism to combat deadly bacterial resistance. Indeed, this study provides a strategy to combat antimicrobial resistance and eradicate bacterial disease via nanotherapeutics.

Herein, we have developed a one-pot methodology to synthesise three types of C-dots and their activated counterparts from three different types of waste plastic precursors such as poly-bags, cups and bottles. The optical studies have shown the significant change in the absorption edge in case of C-dots in comparison to their activated counterparts. The respective variation in the sizes is correlated with the change in electronic band gap values of formed particles. The changes in the luminescence behaviour are also correlated with transitions from the edge of the core of formed particles. The obtained variations in the Stokes shift values of C-dots, and their ACs were used to explore the types of surface states and their related transitions in particles. The mode of interaction between C-dots and their ACs was also determined using solvent-dependent fluorescence spectroscopy. This detailed investigation could provide significant insight on the emission behaviour and the potential usage of formed particles as an effective fluorescent probe in sensing applications.

The current work aims to synthesize highly fluorescent and surface-functionalized gadolinium oxide nanoparticles (Gd2O3 NPs) with (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (MPTMS). The surface modification of Gd2O3 nanoparticles with MPTMS enhanced the stability and solubility of the nanoprobe in aqueous media. The size of the nanoprobe was controlled to 7 ± 1 nm using MPTMS coating. These valued points made the MPTMS@Gd2O3 nanoparticles as economical, highly sensitive, selective nanoprobe with a quick response time for the detection of cysteine via the simple fluorescence-based methodology. The proposed strategy has offered the reliable detection of cysteine in the concentration range of 1–100 µm with a detection limit of 42 nm. The selective sensing of cysteine in human serum has jointly acknowledged the potential prospect of developing sensors in body fluids with great accuracy.

The transformation of biowaste into products with added value offers a lucrative role in nation-building. The current work describes the synthesis of highly water-soluble, luminous carbon quantum dots (CQDs) in the size range of 5–10 nm from discarded rice straw. The small spherical CQDs that were formed had outstanding optical and luminescent qualities as well as good photostabilities. By performing quantitative multi-assay tests that included antioxidant activities, in vitro stability and colloidal assay investigations as a function of different CQD concentrations, the biocompatibility of CQDs was evaluated. To clearly visualize the type of surface defects and emissive states in produced CQDs, excitation-dependent fluorescence emission experiments have also been carried out. The “waste-to-wealth” strategy that has been devised is a successful step toward the quick and accurate detection of Cu2+ ion in aqueous conditions. The fluorescence-quenching behavior has specified the concentration dependency of the developed sensor in the range of 50 μM to 10 nM, with detection limit value of 0.31 nM. The main advantage of the current research is that it offers a more environmentally friendly, economically viable and scaled-up synthesis of toxicologically screened CQDs for the quick fluorescence detection of Cu2+ ions and opens up new possibilities in wastewater management.
