TL;DR: This bioaerogel exhibits the highest removal capacity as yet for any reusable adsorbents prepared from biopolymers, and may pave the way toward ultralight green functional materials.
Abstract: A novel biopolymer-based aerogel was developed by freeze-drying a hydrogel, synthesized from cross-linking bifunctional hairy nanocrystalline cellulose and carboxymethylated chitosan through a Schiff base reaction. The nanocelluloses, bearing aldehyde and carboxylic acid groups, facilitated the cross-linking with chitosan through imine bond formation while providing negatively charged functional groups, and chitosan was modified to accommodate carboxylic acid. The potential of this bioaerogel in environmental remediation was examined in a model system comprising methylene blue, a cationic dye. Electrostatic complexation between acidic groups on the anionic aerogel with the dye resulted in time-dependent dye adsorption, with long-time equilibrium dye concentration fitting well to the Langmuir isotherm, yielding a maximum adsorption capacity of ∼785 mg g–1 and equilibrium constant K ∼ 0.0089 at room temperature. Dynamics of adsorption was modeled by numerically solving the unsteady-state diffusion–adsorptio...

TL;DR: Adsorption capacities of rare earth elements (REEs) were significantly correlated with the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of soils and desorption of REEs varied with soils and with organic acids as well, but the adsorption increased with increasing equilibrium solution pH.

TL;DR: Spectroscopic and kinetic mechanistic studies demonstrate an exchange process leading to a reactive dioxoborolane intermediate leading to enantioselective addition to the pyrylium generated from the chromene acetal.
Abstract: Chiral α,β-dihydroxy carboxylic acids catalyze the enantioselective addition of alkenyl- and aryl boronates to chromene acetals. The optimal carboxylic acid is a tartaric acid amide, easily synthesized via a 3-step procedure. The reaction is enhanced by the addition of Lanthanide triflate salts such as cerium(IV)-and ytterbium(III) triflate. The chiral Bronsted acid and metal Lewis acid may be used in as low as 5 mol % relative to acetal substrate. Optimization of the reaction conditions can lead to yields >70% and enantiomeric ratios as high as 99:1. Spectroscopic and kinetic mechanistic studies demonstrate an exchange process leading to a reactive dioxoborolane intermediate leading to enantioselective addition to the pyrylium generated from the chromene acetal.
