The antioxidant efficacy of the rhizome extract of Polygonatum cirrhifolium (Mahameda) has been studied against a stable 2, 2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical at room temperature. The chemical constituents present in the rhizome extract have been utilized for the one step synthesis of stable gold nanoparticles at room temperature under very mild conditions.

The one-step dispersion of HiPco single-walled carbon nanotubes in aqueous media with the use of a synthetic lyso-phosphatidylcholine was studied. Solubilization occurs through wrapping of lipid molecules around the circumference of the tubes, yielding lipid monolayers on the graphitic sidewalls as evidenced by atomic force microscopy imaging and dynamic light scattering measurements. Raman spectroscopy showed that the dispersion and centrifugation process leads to an effective enrichment of the stable aqueous suspension in carbon nanostructures with smaller diameters.

Metal nanoparticles have been widely exploited in catalysis, but their full impact on the environment and human health is still under debate. Here we describe the one-step fabrication of polymer microbead-supported metal and metal oxide nanoparticles and their application as recoverable nanocatalysts for reactions under batch and flow conditions. Au, Ag and Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> nanoparticles were prepared directly at the surface of benzylamine-coated spherical polymer beads in water by using low energy microwave radiation. The morphology and size of the nanoparticles, and therefore their catalytic properties, were tuned by modifying the bead surface using betalamic acid, an antioxidant from plant origin. The catalytic performance and recovery of these environmentally friendly nanocatalysts was demonstrated towards model redox chemical transformations. We anticipate the results reported herein can provide important insights into the controlled and facile synthesis of microparticle supported nanocatalysts under mild conditions.

A novel SO2F2-promoted thiocyanation method for the one-step synthesis of thiocyanates through C–O bond cleavage of readily available alcohols with ammonium thiocyanate as the thiocyanating agent was developed. The method avoids the use of additional catalyst, and a variety of (hetero)arene, alkene and aliphatic alcohols reacted with high efficiency in ethyl acetate under mild conditions to afford the corresponding thiocyanates in excellent to quantitative yields with broad functional-group compatibility.

Tetragonal CuBi2O4/amorphous BiFeO3 (T-CBO/A-BFO) composites are prepared via a one-step solvothermal method at mild conditions. The T-CBO/A-BFO composites show expanded visible light absorption, suppressed charge recombination, and consequently improved photocatalytic activity than T-CBO or A-BFO alone. The T-CBO/A-BFO with an optimal T-CBO to A-BFO ratio of 1:1 demonstrates the lowest photoluminescence signal and highest photocatalytic activity. It shows a removal rate of 78.3% for the photodegradation of methylene orange under visible light irradiation for 1 h. XPS test after the cycle test revealed the reduction of Bi3+ during the photocatalytic reaction. Moreover, the as prepared T-CBO/A-BFO show fundamentally higher photocatalytic activity than their calcinated counterparts. The one-step synthesis is completed within 30 min and does not require post annealing process, which may be easily applied for the fast and cost-effective preparation of photoactive metal oxide heterojunctions.

In this paper, the synthesis of silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles using a one-step electrochemical method and their application for dye removal are presented. In this method, pure iron in a dilute aqueous sodium silicate solution that served as a silica precursor was electro-oxidized. The silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles produced by this method is nearly spherical with the size of approximately 10 nm and follows the spinel structure of Fe3O4. The silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles exhibit nearly superparamagnetic properties and excellent performance to remove methylene blue from wastewater. The adsorption capacity of the nanoparticles was approximately 24.2 mg methylene blue/g adsorbent, which was much higher than that of pure magnetite nanoparticles (1.1 mg methylene blue/g adsorbent). Also, the percentage removal was higher than 90% with the initial concentration of methylene blue up to 40 mg/L. It can be regenerated and reused with an only slight reduction in percentage removal.
