This study developed a novel pyrazine-based Fe-MOFs (MIL-101(Fe)-Pz) by substituting the 1,4-dicarboxybenzene acid ligands in typical MIL-101(Fe) with 2,5-pyrazinedicarboxylic acid (PzDC), in which sodium acetate was used as coordinative modulator to control the crystal size (2–3 µm). The incorporation of Fe-pyridine N coordination structures originated from PzDC ligands gave MIL-101(Fe)-Pz narrowed band gap (1.45 eV) than MIL-101(Fe) (2.54 eV) resulting in improved visible-light adsorption capacity (λ &gt; 420 nm), and also increased the proportion of Fe(II) in the Fe-clusters. Thus MIL-101(Fe)-Pz exhibited a synergistic enhanced photo-Fenton-like catalytic performance under visible-light irradiation. The MIL-101(Fe)-Pz/H₂O₂/Vis system could degrade 99% of sulfamethoxazole within 30 min, which was 10-fold faster than that of the pristine MIL-101(Fe), it also effectively removed other organic micropollutants with high durability and stability. Mechanistic analysis revealed that the PzDC ligands substitution decreased the band gap of MIL-101(Fe), giving MIL-101(Fe)-Pz appropriate band structure (-0.40∼1.05 V vs. NHE) which can cover several light-driven process for the generation of reactive oxygen species, including Fe(III) reduction and H₂O₂ activation for accelerating ^•OH generation, as well as oxygen reduction reaction for generating H₂O₂, <span><math><msubsup><mi>O</mi><mrow><mn>2</mn></mrow><mrow><mo>•</mo><mo>−</mo></mrow></msubsup></math></span> and ¹O₂.

However, knowledge gaps remain in the bromination processes of emerging phenolic pollutants in plants, which may increase the potential health risk associated with food exposure. Our study discovered that light induced generation and accumulation of more toxic brominated organic compounds (Br-org) in lettuce leaves under the stress of acetaminophen (ACE) than that without light, as evidenced by an increase in C-Br bond intensity in FTIR analysis. This result can be explained by the oxidation of bromide ions (Br^-) by reactive species (ROS and ³Chl*) of chloroplast into reactive bromine species (RBS). The main mechanism is that the redox of Br^- reduced the oxidative damage of ACE to the structure and function of chloroplasts, providing good conditions for light energy uptake and utilization and promoting the increase of pigments and active species. Compared with the dark group exposed to 5 mg/L Br^-, the pigment content, H₂O₂ and ¹O₂ level of the light group increased by 56%, 84% and 69%, respectively. On the other hand, RBS attacks certain electrophilic organic compounds in leaves to generate Br-org. Triple excited state of chlorophyll (³Chl*) was the dominant species for the transformation of ACE, while RBS is a key factor in the generation of Br-org in the Br^-/light/chlorophyll system. A total of six transformation products were identified by HPLC-MS/MS, which were involved in three transformation pathways: methylation, hydroxyl oxidation and hydroxylation followed by bromination. This is the first report that Br^- could enter the chloroplast and improved chloroplast structure under ACE stress, and elucidated the bromination mechanism of organics in terrestrial plant involving of biophotochemical bromination in chloroplast besides enzyme-catalyzed bromination.

As observed, a rapid and complete mitigation 100 mg/L of tylosin was achieved within 15 min by the catalysts. Acidic cleavage of tylosin was fulfilled by sulfonic groups in the composites, and microwave thermal accelerated the hydrolysis reactions due to the dielectric and magnetic-loss effects. Differentiating the dielectric and magnetic-loss effects through electromagnetic analyses indicated that the latter contributed more in converting microwave energy to heat. The interactions under multiple operational conditions were quantitatively fitted using the Behnajady model and visually demonstrated, which indicated that a synergic effect of microwave thermal- and acidic-hydrolyses contributed to the efficient mitigation of tylosin. The transformation products were identified and the pathways were supposed. Cleaving deoxyaminosugars groups and destructing lactone structures led to reduced antibacterial potential and toxicity reduction. The acute toxicity of tylosin and transformation products to fish, daphnia, and green algae were all classified as non-toxic.

Currently, Cu is the only metal catalyst known to efficiently reduce CO₂ to multicarbon products, mainly due to its appropriate adsorption energy for CO intermediates. However, single Cu catalysts often face challenges such as excessively high overpotentials and poor selectivity, which limit their potential application in CO₂ reduction.
