We investigated a simple fluorescence signaling method for the convenient analysis of a practical oxidant—chlorite—via the oxidation of 9-anthracenecarboxaldehyde to the corresponding carboxylic acid. 9-Anthracenecarboxaldehyde exhibited a marked ratiometric fluorescence signaling toward chlorite through manipulating its aggregation-induced emission property. The probe showed high chlorite-selectivity over other oxychlorine species as well as common metal ions, anions, and oxidants. Interference from a closely related oxidant, hypochlorite, was efficiently removed using DMSO as a scavenger. The proposed probe also exhibited a prominent ratiometric response through changes in UV–vis absorption behavior. Among the tested aromatic aldehydes (naphthaldehydes, anthracenecarboxaldehyde, and pyrenecarboxaldehyde), anthracene-based carboxaldehyde exhibited the most pronounced signaling contrast and the fastest signaling speed. The detection limit of chlorite determination was found to be 1.1 × 10–7 M. Exploitation of the probe for the convenient analysis of chlorite in tap water via a recovery test was conducted.

Hydrolysis of amides to carboxylic acids is an industrially important reaction but is challenging due to the difficulty of cleaving the resonance stabilized amidic C-N bond. Twenty-three heterogeneous and homogenous catalysts were examined in the hydrolysis of acetamide. Results showed that Nb2O5was the most effective heterogeneous catalyst with the greatest yield of acetic acid. A series of Nb2O5catalysts calcined at various temperatures were characterized and tested in the hydrolysis of acetamide to determine the effects of crystal phase and surface properties of Nb2O5on catalytic performance. The high catalytic performance observed was attributed mainly to the facile activation of the carbonyl bond by Lewis acid sites that function even in the presence of basic inhibitors (NH3and H2O). The catalytic studies showed the synthetic advantages of the present method, such as simple operation, catalyst recyclability, additive free, solvent free, and wide substrate scope (>40 examples; up to 95% isolated yield).
