The photocatalytic degradation of 4-chlorophenol under blue-light irradiation showed that the performance of stable composite layers containing 25–50 wt.% of WO₃ was only slightly weaker than that of unstable pristine g-C₃N₄ ones. The high photocatalytic performance was due to g-C₃N₄, while WO₃ contributed to a good mechanical resistance of layers in stirred water.

In our study, employing the DFT/M062x/def2svp level of theory, the potentials of metal-doped (Na, Zn, and Al) fullerene surfaces as efficient adsorbents for CN, CNCl, and NO₂ gases were evaluated. Investigation revealed that the introduction of metal dopants has visible impacts on the structural and electronic properties of fullerene surfaces. Specifically, a slight increase in the bond length of C–C bonds, with protruded bonds forming between the doped atoms and carbon atoms, was observed. The obtained energy gap (Eg) demonstrated a consistent reduction across the doped surfaces, indicative of heightened sensitivity toward the gas analytes. C59Al exhibited a higher Eg (3.876 eV), while C59Zn displayed a lower value (3.103 eV) compared to C59Na. Topology analysis using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) predicted non-covalent interactions between gas analytes and metal-doped fullerene surfaces, a finding that was further substantiated by the analysis of non-covalent interactions. Focusing on CN gas adsorption, distinct behaviors emerged, where C59Na exhibited strong adsorption (Eads = −2.67 eV), surpassing C59Al (−1.82 eV) and C59Zn (−0.64 eV). A similar trend was observed for CNCl and NO₂ gas adsorption, with C59Na consistently showing higher adsorption energies. This alignment was corroborated by frontier molecular orbital (FMO) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analyses. The results for dipole moment and recovery time emulated those of adsorption energy, emphasizing the stability and uniformity in adsorbed states. This collective evidence highlights the potential of doped surfaces to effectively adsorb specific gas molecules, offering insights into their applicability in gas sensing and environmental remediation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":513,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Papers","volume":"78 16","pages":"8789 - 8801"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142519166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the previous studies, colorimetric pH detection involved manual capture of target regions and classification of acid–base categories, leading to time-consuming processes. Additionally, some researchers relied solely on <i>R*G*B*</i> or <i>H*S*V*</i> to build regression models, potentially limiting their generalizability and robustness. To address the limitations, this study proposed a colorimetric method that combines pH paper, smartphone, computer vision, and machine learning for fast and precise pH detection. Advantages of the computer vision model YOLOv5 include its ability to quickly capture the target region of the pH paper and automatically categorize it as either acidic or basic. Subsequently, recursive feature elimination was applied to filter out irrelevant features from the <i>R*G*B*</i>, <i>H*S*V*</i>, <i>L*a*b*</i>, Gray, <i>X</i>_<i>R</i>, <i>X</i>_<i>G</i>, and <i>X</i>_<i>B</i>. Finally, the support vector regression was used to develop the regression model for pH value prediction. YOLOv5 demonstrated exceptional performance with mean average precision of 0.995, classification accuracy of 100%, and detection time of 4.9 ms. The pH prediction model achieved a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.023 for acidity and 0.061 for alkalinity, signifying a notable advancement compared to the MAE range of 0.03–0.46 observed in the previous studies.

The molecular structure and electronic properties of parent compound (<i>E</i>)-1-(4-aminophenyl)-3-(3-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (<b>C1</b>) were quantum chemically simulated and found in good agreement with experimentally reported results.

DFT and TD-DFT calculations were employed to shed light on charge transfer properties, promising structures, density of states plots and NLO characteristics. The substitution with acceptors effectively modified the structures with halogens and nonhalogen groups, resulting in improved NLO characteristics. A striking NLO response was seen in all proposed compounds. It is interesting to note that the NLO characteristics of <b>C2–C3</b> and <b>C4–C8</b> have been significantly improved by the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process with <i>β</i>_// value of 18.30 × 10⁻³⁰ esu.

DFT studies reveal that molecular modeling, including the optimization of molecular structures like PFP, is crucial for understanding complex molecules and their characteristics. The energy difference (∆E) between the Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) and Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (LUMO) was determined to be 4.48 eV.

High DOS intensity indicated many accessible states, while zero intensity indicated none.
