Abstract
The present invention is a method for the removal of mercury ions from water using organic probe tethered diatoms. The UV-vis and fluorescence titration studies showed that 1:1(P2:Hg2+) stoichiometric complex is forming. Further, the organic probe P2 has been immobilized on diatoms and synthetic silica surface separately for the efficient removal of Hg2+ ions from water. These molecules were characterized by XPS, TGA, FTIR, and SEM. As a practical application, the P2 immobilized diatoms and synthetic silica were used for the removal of Hg2+ ions. Results revealed that, P2 functionalized diatoms can remove upto 1 ppb of 10 mercury ions which can be visualized by the colour change whereas efficiency of synthetic silica was comparatively less. The P2 functionalized diatoms and/or synthetic silica particles can be used in remote areas where a level of mercury is high.
Description
NOVEL METHOD FOR THE REMOVAL OF MERCURY IONS FROM WATER USING ORGANIC PROBE TETHERED
DIATOMS
The present invention relates to a novel method for the removal of mercury ions from water using organic probe tethered diatoms/synthetic silica particles.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In recent years, the research on detection and removal of heavy metal ions is rapidly expanding. The metal ions cause severe threats to human beings when the concentration exceeds the permissible limit. The main causes of heavy metal contamination in the environment are fast growing industries, urbanization, metal mining, the volcanic eruption in past decades and combustion of fossil fuels, etc. High concentration of heavy metal ions causes deadly diseases related to the brain, kidney, nervous system, liver, etc. Thus, the need for low-cost, reliable devices to detect and remove these metal ions have to develop on urgent basis. During the past decades, researchers are trying to develop new materials and methods to detect and remove heavy metal ions from water. The materials such as graphene, magnetic nanoparticles, polymers and biological materials show very high sensitivity and selectivity to detect and remove these metal ions. The use of conventional methods for the quantitative detection and analysis of these metal ions involves electrochemical sensing, atomic absorption spectroscopy, high- performance liquid chromatography, laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy, etc. Though these methods are significantly selective and sensitive, their cost and bulky instrumentation systems hinder the field studies. To overcome the above disadvantages, researchers are trying to develop simple, equally selective and sensitive probes for the colorimetric detection and removal of metal ions.
Among several other heavy metal ions, mercury (Hg2+) is one such ion which is highly toxic when it is present in either in organic or inorganic form. Mercury methylation is an organic form of mercury which can directly interact with lipids to cause cancer-related diseases. Above a permissible limit (2 ppb/mL), the
mercury can cause several diseases such as Mina-Mata and many other waterborne diseases related to kidney, liver, and bones, etc. Owing to this, detection and removal of traces of mercury from the water become essential. There are several reports on synthesis of organic probes for the colorimetric detection of Hg2+ ions. However, these probes work efficiently either in organic solvents or mixed organic solvents. Further, few reports suggest that rhodamine- based probes can detect Hg2+ ions which are present in water with high sensitivity. Therefore, the rhodamine-based probes have attracted many researchers by virtue of their excellent photophysical properties, such as long wavelength absorption and emission, high fluorescence quantum yield, large extinction coefficient and high stability against light. The detection is based on the fluorescence switching of rhodamine moiety between spirocyclic and ring opening forms before and after the addition of Hg2+ ions.
On the other hand, research on grafting of these probes on solid substrates such as silica, carbon-based materials, nanoparticles and polymers for the removal of Hg2+ ions is growing fast. Alternatively, use of naturally available materials to graft these molecules to remove Hg2+ ions is still pending. Therefore, naturally available diatom particles could be used to graft these probes for the removal of Hg2+ ions. Diatoms are the class of algae, and their cell wall is made of silica which has high surface area compared to conventional silica. The use of diatom particles in various applications from chemistry to medicine has been explored to date. However, these diatoms frustules which have similar properties of silica can replace conventional silica particles in several applications such as water purification, filtration of beer and wine, optical sensing, drug delivery due to the inherent properties such as high porosity, surface area, biocompatibility, chemical inertness, surface tenability and low-cost. Thus, the main focus of this invention is to report the novel process and product invention for the removal of Hg2+ ions from water by using diatoms which can remove up to 1 ppb of Hg2+ ions from water and can be visualized by color change.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the field of organic chemistry, and metal ion detection and removal from water. Specifically, relates to the synthesis of organic probes for colorimetric detection of mercury ions in water and further functionalize on diatoms for removal of the same.

Disadvantages of reported patents and brief description of the present invention
The discovery and development of the above-mentioned novel diatoms-based energy storage and water purification devices have a huge impact in the scientific community because of the potential properties of the diatoms. Thus, diatoms can be used in every field of science and technology. However, efficient colorimetric removal of mercury ions from water using diatoms is lacking. Therefore, the process for the grafting of an organic probe on diatoms surface which can remove the mercury ions from water. The development of low-cost devices using the abundant diatoms for the spot monitoring as well as removal of mercury ions from water which can be visualized by a color change of diatoms will impact the society.
Advantages and brief description of the invention
Naturally available diatom particles are the class of algae, and their cell wall is made up of silica which has intrinsic properties such as high porosity, surface area, biocompatibility, chemical inertness, surface tenability and low-cost compared to conventional silica. The use of diatom particles in various applications from chemistry to medicine has been explored to date. However, these diatoms frustules which have similar properties of silica can replace conventional silica particles in several applications such as water purification, filtration of beer and wine, optical sensing, drug delivery, etc. The conventional silica particles are produced by chemical processes, the byproducts may be harmful to the environment. Whereas, diatoms are naturally available in various form. Presently, researchers used synthetic silica as a solid platform to functionalize the organic probes. However, these solid platforms showed good
sensitivity, using the natural resources for the environmental remediation is highly desirable. Owing to this, diatoms can give tremendous ways to use as solid platforms for the immobilization of organic probes which can be used to remove mercury ions from water. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The main objective of this invention is to provide a novel process for the removal of trace level mercury ions from water using rhodamine derivative functionalized diatoms.

This process can be used for other molecules functionalization, and same can be used for the removal of several other metal ions from water. Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the description which is elaborated in the coming sections.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The advanced developments in the synthesis of novel organic probe functionalized solid platforms for the removal of metal ions have led to the dawn of a new age in the sensor field. The organic probes can be immobilized in highly porous diatoms to meet this requirement and thus improve the removal efficiency.
Figure 1 illustrates the general schematic for the immobilization of organic probe on diatoms. The present invention is directed to synthesize organic probe immobilized diatoms for the removal of trace mercury from water which results in visual color change. Using the concept of "imine formation", the organic probe will be successfully attached to diatoms 1 for the first time. An imine is a functional group or chemical compound that includes a carbon-nitrogen double bond. Nitrogen atom can be attached to a hydrogen (H) or an organic group. If this group is not a hydrogen
atom, then the compound can sometimes be referred to as a Schiff base. The carbon atom has two additional single bonds. Imines are typically prepared by the condensation of primary amines and aldehydes and less commonly ketones:
RNH2 + R'C(0)R→ RN=C(R ')(R) + H20
In terms of mechanism, such reactions proceed via the nucleophilic addition giving a hemiaminal -C(OH)(NHR)- intermediate, followed by an elimination of water to yield the imine. The equilibrium in this reaction usually favors the carbonyl compound and amine, so that a zeotropic distillation or use of a dehydrating agent, such as molecular sieves or magnesium sulfate, is required to push the reaction to aid the imine formation.
The resulting solid substrate was found to remove ppb mercury ions from water and can be seen with naked eyes. These results will provide new hope in the field of sensors referred in the prior art i.e. the probe which can selectively detect bacteria. The present invention will now be described more specifically concerning the following embodiments. It is to be noted that the following descriptions of preferred embodiments of this invention are presented herein for the purpose of illustration and description only and not intended to be exhaustive or to be limited to the precise form disclosed. The following example is illustrative of the best mode now contemplated for carrying out the invention.

II. Synthesis of organic probe (rhodamine-terephthaldehyde Schiff base);
• Synthesis of PM1
Figure 2 depicts the synthetic route to obtain the desired product. Briefly, rhodamine-6G 2(2.0876 mM) was dissolved in minimum amount of ethanol4, 3 equivalence (6.2628 mM) of hydrazine hydrate 3 was then dropwise added to the solution. The mixture was then sonicated for 5 minutes to get the Schiff base product. The Schiff base (imine) solid product was filtered out using a vacuum pump. The residue was thoroughly washed with ethanol 4and dried at room temperature to obtain PM19.1H NMR (500 MHz, OMSO-d6, d/ppm): 7.75 (m, J= 5 Hz, ArH), 7.46 (m, J=5 Hz, ArH), 6.93 (m, J=5Hz, ArH), 6.26(s, ArH), 6.10 (s, ArH), 5.00 (s, 1H), 4.22 (s, 1H), 3.13 (m, J= 5 Hz, 2H), 1.86 (s, 3H), 1.21 (t, J=10Hz, 3H).
• Synthesis of P2
PM1 9(0.500 g, 1.1668 mM) and Terephthalaldehyde 6(0.157 g, 1.1668 mM) were dissolved in 20 mL of ethanol 4and a drop of glacial acetic acid 5was added to the solution. After refluxing at 80°C for overnight, the yellow precipitate (P2)8whose chemical name is (E)-4-(((3',6'-bis(ethylamino)-2',7'-dimethyl-3- oxospiro[isoindoline-l,9'-xanthen]-2-yl)imino)methyl)benzaldehyde,were obtained which was filtered, washed with ethanol for several times to remove the non-reacted reactants and kept for drying at room temperature overnight. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-iM, d/ppm): 9.96 (s, 1H), 8.489 (s, 1H), 8.125 (s, ArH), 7.897 (m, J=7.5Hz, ArH), 7.609 (m, J=7.5Hz, ArH), 7.33 (s, ArH), 7.029 (m, J=7.5Hz, ArH), 6.320 (m, J=8Hz, ArH), 6.140 (m, J=19Hz, ArH), 5.042 (t, J=5Hz, 1H), 3.120 (m, J=6.5Hz, 2H), 1.809 (s, 3H), 1.193 (t, J=6.5Hz, 3H)
• Synthesis of P2 functionalized diatom particles and/or synthetic silica
Functionalization of naturally available diatoms and/or synthetic silica was carried out using reported literature. Briefly, the 5.0 g of diatoms lwere taken in 100 mL three-neck round bottom flask, 50 mL toluene was then added and kept for constant stirring and refluxed at 60°C for an hour, under a nitrogen atmosphere. 500 μΐ^ of water was added dropwise using a syringe and allowed to stir for another 2 hours. Further, lmL Terephthalaldehyde and 3-aminopropyl-triethoxy silane (APTES) 6 was added slowly to the solution and stirred for 6 hours at the same temperature. After the reaction, the APTES treated diatoms 10 were obtained by repeated centrifugation (3000 rpm), washed with isopropanol and toluene for several times and vacuum dried for 6 hours at room temperature. Furthermore, similar procedure was adopted to functionalize APTES on synthetic silica particles.
In next step, P2 12which is used to functionalize on diatoms to remove Hg2+ ions from water. Said P2was immobilized onto diatom through the condensation reaction as in Figure 3. 1 g of diatoms ldispersed in 8 ml of ethanol 4and stirred to form a suspension. 0.2 g of P2 8dissolved in 2mL of ethanol 4and added slowly with vigorous stirring at room temperature stirred for overnightll. The resulting solid material was washed with ethanol 4for several times to remove the unreacted P28. Further, by adding Hg2+ solution to supernatant solution, if the solution changes its colour then it is confirmed that still P2 8is present in the solvent. Thus, obtained material was used to study the performance of mercury removal from water which is confirmed by UV-vis spectroscopy. Furthermore, similar procedure was adopted to functionalize P2 on APTES treated synthetic silica particles.
III. Characterization:
In all embodiments, all the synthesized compounds will go through a series of characterization to determine the desired product. The procedures that will be used for characterization are, spectroscopic (1H NMR and FTIR), microscopic (SEM) techniques, and elemental analysis using XPS, TGA.
In some embodiments, the mercury detection using P2 8in solution form was carried out through UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopic techniques. Further, UV-vis and fluorescence titrations were carried out to find binding stoichiometry of complex (P2:Hg2+). Further, the removal studies were carried out using, UV-vis spectroscopic technique. The removal of mercury is also can be visualized through observing the color change from colorless to pink after addition of mercury.
