Developed magnetic multiporous 3D N-Co@C/HCF as efficient sorbent for the extraction of five trace phthalate esters
Abstract:
A three-dimensional (3D) magnetic porous N-Co@carbon dodecahedron/hierarchical carbon framework (3D N-Co@C/HCF) hybrid has been successfully synthesized by integration of the ZIF-67 into HCF and then calcination under an inert gas (N2). 3D N-Co@C/HCF as magnetic sorbent show good extraction ability for phthalate esters (PAEs: dibutyl phthalate (DBP), dimethyl phthalate (DMP), dicyclohexyl phthalate (DCHP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP), diethyl phthalate (DEP)). This is attributed not only to the abundant adsorption sites (due to the presence of large specific surface area) and the extremely strong π-conjugated system of 3D N-Co@C/HCF, but also to sufficient contact spaces and facile transport channels (ascribe to the interconnected hierarchical 3D porous structure) between targets and the material. Furthermore, 3D N-Co@C/HCF possesses excellent magnetism and structure stability for maximizing reuse of sorbent, which is applied as sorbent for disperse magnetic solid-phase extraction (d-MSPE) of five PAEs in the real samples. Under optimized condition, a facile d-MSPE coupled to HPLC-UV detection was developed for the extraction and determination of trace PAEs in real samples. This method revealed a high enhancement factor (230-281), wide linear range (0.2-100 ng mL-1), lower the limits of detection (0.023-0.113 ng mL-1) and satisfactory recoveries (87.1-107.2%) with the relative standard deviation (RSD) (n = 5) less than 6% for the determination of PAEs in real samples.

Lithium aluminum hydride is a source of hydride ions and functions as a nucleophile. The mechanism proceeds in three steps. Firstly, the nucleophilic hydride ion attacks the carbonyl carbon of the ester to form a tetrahedral intermediate. Subsequently, the carbonyl group re-forms,...

03:02Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
