Bond energies and structures of ammonia-sulfuric acid positive cluster ions

New particle formation in the atmosphere is initiated by nucleation of gas-phase species. The small molecular clusters that act as seeds for new particles are stabilized by the incorporation of an ion. Ion-induced nucleation of molecular cluster ions containing sulfuric acid generates new particles in the background troposphere. The addition of a proton-accepting species to sulfuric acid cluster ions can further stabilize them and may promote nucleation under a wider range of conditions. To understand and accurately predict atmospheric nucleation, the stabilities of each molecular cluster within a chemical family must be known. We present the first comprehensive measurements of the ammonia-sulfuric acid positive ion cluster system NH(4)(+)(NH(3))(n)(H(2)SO(4))(s). Enthalpies and entropies of individual growth steps within this system were measured using either an ion flow reactor-mass spectrometer system under equilibrium conditions or by thermal decomposition of clusters in an ion trap mass spectrometer. Low level ab initio structural calculations provided inputs to a master equation model to determine bond energies from thermal decomposition measurements. Optimized ab initio structures for clusters up through n = 3, s = 3 are reported. Upon addition of ammonia and sulfuric acid pairs, internal proton transfer generates multiple NH(4)(+) and HSO(4)(-) ions within the clusters. These multiple-ion structures are up to 50 kcal mol(-1) more stable than corresponding isomers that retain neutral NH(3) and H(2)SO(4) species. The lowest energy n = s clusters are composed entirely of ions. The addition of acid-base pairs to the core NH(4)(+) ion generates nanocrystals that begin to resemble the ammonium bisulfate bulk crystal starting with the smallest n = s cluster, NH(4)(+)(NH(3))(1)(H(2)SO(4))(1). In the absence of water, this cluster ion system nucleates spontaneously for conditions that encompass most of the free troposphere.     

Determination of N-species in soil extracts using microplate techniques

Colourimetric methods for the determination of NO(3)(-), NH(4)(+) and total N in water extracts of soils using 96-well microplate techniques are described. Nitrate was determined by azo dye formation after reduction to NO(2)(-) using a solution of hydrazine sulphate. Ammonium in the soil extracts was purified and concentrated by diffusion as NH(3) from small volumes (750microL) of extract treated with MgO into a H(2)SO(4) collector using a double-plate, MicroResp method and subsequently determined by the Berthelot reaction. For the determination of total N, samples were oxidised with K(2)S(2)O(8) at 110 degrees C in a 96x1.1mL polytetrafluoroethylene block with a lid that closed individual wells. The oxidised solutions were transferred to standard plates for colourimetric analysis of NO(3)(-). The recovery of N, measured as NO(3)(-), from NH(4)NO(3) and a range of organic-N compounds was >95%. The limits of quantitation of the colourimetic assays were 0.020mgNL(-1) for NO(3)(-) and 0.051mgNL(-1) for NH(4)(+). The methods were tested on water extracts derived from a range of 10 nutrient poor soils from Scotland. There were acceptable linear correlations between the results obtained by established methods. For soil extracts analysed by the microplate method, the relationship for NO(3)(-) was 1.03x result from ion chromatography+0.0055 (R(2)=0.9961); for NH(4)(+) determined by the microplate method, the relationship was 0.9696xresult from a discrete analyser-0.0169 (R(2)=0.9757) and for total N determined by oxidation in the PTFE microplate the relationship was 0.9435xresult obtained by combustion+0.0489 (R(2)=0.9743). Purification of the NH(4)(+) in water extracts from the 10 different soils by the diffusion method did not result in any systematic difference (paired t-test, p=0.05) between measured concentration values determined before and after diffusion.     

Preliminary investigation of the simultaneous detection of sugars,ascorbic acid,citric acid,and sodium benzoate in non-alcoholic beverages by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) was used for the simultaneous detection of sugars, ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium and/or potassium benzoate in non-alcoholic beverages, with meso-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin (MW 974) as a matrix. Using potassium hydroxide as dopant, fructose/glucose was detected as the potassiated molecule at m/z 219, whereas potassiated sucrose, [Sucrose. K](+), was detected at m/z 381. Using sodium hydroxide as dopant, the fructose and sucrose ions were detected at m/z 203 and 365, respectively. Citric acid generated multiple ions at m/z 269, 307, and 345, which were assigned to [Citricbond;H+2K](+), [Citricbond;2H+3K](+), and [Citricbond;3H+4K](+), respectively. However, a stored methanolic solution of citric acid produced additional ions at m/z 283, 297, and 321, which were attributed to [Citricbond;2H+CH(3)+2K](+), [Citricbond;3H+2CH(3)+2K](+), and [Citricbond;3H+CH(3)+3K](+), respectively, due to esterification that took place during storage. The limits of detection in water were: ascorbic acid, 0.30 wt%; citric acid, 0.5 wt%; and sodium benzoate, 0.001 wt%. In the beverage formulations, the limits of detection were: ascorbic acid 0.3 wt%, citric acid 0.3 wt%, and sodium benzoate 0.02 wt%. Spiking a water or beverage solution that contained ascorbic and/or citric acid with less than 0.6 wt% of tartaric acid lowered the detection limits of ascorbic and citric acids to 0.2 wt%. This study demonstrates the potential for using MALDI-TOFMS in the quality control analyses of non-alcoholic beverages, particularly with regard to the detection of low molecular weight organic acids in commercial beverage formulations.     

CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂在氨选择性催化还原氮氧化物反应中的性能(英文)

氮氧化物(NO_x)是主要的大气污染物之一.氨气选择性催化还原法(NH_3-SCR)是目前去除固定源排放的氮氧化物的最有效方法,被广泛用于燃煤或者生物质的火电厂中.催化剂是NH_3-SCR法的核心,其中V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2催化剂是主要的商业SCR催化剂;但是V_2O_5有毒,对环境的影响很大;另外,该催化剂具有较高的SO_2氧化性能.因而研究者一直在探索新型的SCR催化剂.SO_2是燃煤电厂烟气中的典型气体之一,所以抗硫性能是催化剂的一个重要指标.在SCR反应条件下,SO_2和O_2容易与氧化物催化剂发生反应生成稳定性较高的硫酸盐,覆盖在催化剂表面从而引起催化剂失活.但已有研究发现,硫化会提高K中毒后的V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2催化剂的活性.并且,短时间的硫化可以明显提高CuO/Al_2O_3的NH_3-SCR活性.硫酸盐催化剂或许具有较低毒性和较高抗硫性能,应该是一种有前景的SCR催化剂.本文以商业纳米TiO_2为载体,采用湿式浸渍法制备了一系列的CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂.在自制的活性评价装置上测试了样品的NH_3-SCR活性并且在340℃下连续24 h测试了SO_2、水蒸气及两者共同作用对催化剂活性的影响.使用N_2等温吸附-脱附、X射线衍射(XRD)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、H_2程序升温还原(H2-TPR)和NH_3程序升温脱附(NH_3-TPD)对催化剂进行了表征.另外,采用原位红外漫反射光谱研究了CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂上的NH_3-SCR反应过程.N_2等温吸附-脱附结果表明,负载的CuSO_4没有明显改变载体的孔结构.而XRD结果仅显示锐钛矿TiO_2的衍射峰,说明CuSO_4在载体上有较好的分散度或者CuSO_4的含量低于检测限.XPS结果显示,催化剂中的铜主要以Cu~(2+)形式存在,硫主要以SO_4~(2-)形式存在,而氧主要以晶格氧和吸附氧两种形式存在,并且CuSO_4的存在会增加催化剂中吸附氧的含量.H_2-TPR结果表明,随着CuSO_4含量的增加,催化剂的氧化还原能力逐渐增强.NH_3-TPD结果表明,催化剂表面的酸性位数目随着样品中CuSO_4含量的增加而增加.纯TiO_2的NH_3-SCR活性很差,当温度从300℃增加到450℃时,最高NO_x转化率仅为32.7%.但当CuSO_4负载到TiO_2上以后,催化剂活性明显提高.在反应温度高于340℃时,CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂的NO_x转化率在94%以上,与商业V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2催化剂相当,并且其N_2O生成量低于商业催化剂.不过,当温度低于340℃时,CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂的NO_x转化率明显低于商业催化剂,说明CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂的活性仍有待改善.连续24 h测试了SO_2、水蒸汽及两者的共同作用对CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂活性的影响.结果显示,单独的水蒸气会导致活性轻微下降,但SO_2以及两者共同存在时对催化剂的活性基本没有影响.CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂的NH_3吸附红外光谱表明,催化剂上存在Lewis和Bronsted两种酸性位,但Bronsted酸性位上的NH_4~+稳定性较差,280℃时即基本消失.在高温时,NH_3主要吸附在Lewis酸性位上且CuSO_4/TiO_2催化剂对NO_x的吸附能力较差,红外光谱未检测到NO_x的吸附峰.380℃下,当NO和O_2通入预吸附NH_3的催化剂样品时,属于Lewis酸性位上NH_3的红外峰明显下降,说明Lewis酸性位上吸附的NH_3参与了反应.CuSO_4/TiO_2显示出高的抗硫抗水性能和比较好的NH_3-SCR活性,应该是一种有应用前景的SCR催化剂.CuSO_4可以增加催化剂的酸性位数目和吸附氧量.根据原位红外漫反射结果,CuSO_4/TiO_2上的SCR反应遵循Eley-Rideal机理.气相的NO与吸附在Lewis酸性位上的NH_3反应生成N_2和H_2O或许是主要的反应途径,并且吸附氧可能会促进这个过程.     

四氮杂大环镍(Ⅱ)配合物[Ni(TIM)](ClO4)2催化的新型B-Z振荡反应

本文报道了一种以四氮杂大环四烯镍(Ⅱ)配合物[Ni(TIM)](ClO4)2为催化剂,柠檬酸为有机底物的硫酸环境的新型的B-Z振荡反应体系。讨论了不同浓度的溴酸钠、硫酸、柠檬酸对振荡周期(tp)、振幅(A)、振荡次数(n)的影响,发现振荡周期tp与溴酸钠、硫酸、柠檬酸的浓度有关,关系表达式:tp(s)∝C0-2.003(NaBrO3)C0-2.881(H2SO4)C0-3.16(Citric acid)。研究了各种还原剂、自由基抑制剂、Ag+、Hg2+对该振荡反应的不同程度的影响。最后提出了该反应的反应机理。     

Mass accommodation of H2SO4 and CH3SO3H on water-sulfuric acid solutions from 6% to 97% RH

The uptake of H2SO4 and CH3SO3H onto particles composed of water and sulfuric acid was studied in a laminar flow reactor at atmospheric pressure. Their first-order gas-phase loss rate coefficients were determined using a chemical ionization mass spectrometer. Relative humidity was varied from 6% to 97% at 295-297.5 K. The mass accommodation coefficient, alpha, was found to be close to unity for both species. These findings show that alpha does not limit particle growth rates resulting from H2SO4 and CH3SO3H uptake. Diffusion coefficients in N2 for these two species are also reported and a significant dependence upon relative humidity was seen for H2SO4 but not for CH3SO3H. Last, production of small particles was observed due to the presence of SO2 in particle chargers. Formation of these particles can be significantly reduced by adding an OH scavenger such as propane.     

Heterogeneous interaction of N2O5 with HCl doped H2SO4 under stratospheric conditions: ClNO2 and Cl2 yields

The reaction of dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, with hydrogen chloride, HCl, in sulfuric acid solutions was studied at temperatures and compositions relevant to the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere. Experiments were performed using a rotating wetted wall flow tube reactor coupled to a chemical ionization mass spectrometer for the gas-phase detection of reactants (N2O5 and HCl) and products (nitryl chloride, ClNO2, and Cl2) using I– as the reagent ion. Uptake coefficients, γ, were measured under stratospheric conditions: 205 < T < 225 K; 50 and 60 wt % H2SO4 solutions; 5.8 × 10(–5) < [HCl]liq < 0.1 M. Uptake coefficients of N2O5 on pure H2SO4/H2O (50 and 60 wt % H2SO4) and HCl-doped H2SO4 were found to be independent of temperature and sulfuric acid composition (weight percent of H2SO4 and HCl concentration) consistent with previous studies. ClNO2 was observed to be a major gas-phase product with its yield strongly dependent on the liquid-phase HCl concentration (5.8 × 10(–5) to 0.1 M HCl) and with a maximum yield of nearly unity at 0.005 M HCl in both 50 and 60 wt % sulfuric acid solutions. The Cl2 yield was <1% under all conditions studied. ClNO2 production was attributed to the heterogeneous reaction of NO2(+)(aq), or H2NO3(+)(aq) (formed in the dissociative ionization of N2O5), with Cl–. The variation of the ClNO2 yield with HCl concentration was attributed to the competition between the reaction of NO2(+)(aq), or H2NO3(+)(aq) with Cl– and H2O. Using our measured yields as a function of HCl concentrations in 50 and 60 wt % H2SO4 solutions at different temperatures, we calculated the variation of the ClNO2 yield under stratospheric conditions. The atmospheric implications of these findings were examined using a 2D atmospheric model. The contribution of this chemistry to ozone depletion was found to be a minor process under nonvolcanic background aerosol levels.     

Synthesis, characterisation and speciation studies of heterobimetallic pyridinehydroxamate-bridged Pt(II)/M(II) complexes (M = Cu, Ni, Zn). Crystal structure of a novel heterobimetallic 3-pyridinehydroxamate-bridged Pt(II)/Cu(II) wave-like coordination polymer

The reaction of cis-[Pt(NH3)2(3-pyhaH)2]2+ (3-pyhaH = 3-pyridinehydroxamic acid) and cis-[Pt(NH3)2(4-pyhaH)2]2+ (4-pyhaH = 4-pyridinehydroxamic acid) with Cu(II), Ni(II) or Zn(II) in aqueous solution affords novel heterobimetallic pyridinehydroxamate-bridged complexes, {cis-[Pt(NH3)2(mu-3-pyha)M(mu-3-pyha)].SO4.xH2O}n and {cis-[Pt(NH3)2(mu-4-pyha)M(mu-4-pyha)].SO4.xH2O}n respectively. The crystal and molecular structure of one of these, {cis-[Pt(NH3)2(mu-3-pyha)Cu(mu-3-pyha)]SO4.8H2O}n 3a, has been determined and was found to be a novel heterobimetallic wave-like coordination polymer, the structure of which contains interlinked pyridinehydroxamate-bridged repeating units of Pt(II) and Cu(II) ions in slightly distorted square-planar N4 and O4 coordination environments respectively and extensive hydrogen-bonding through the Pt ammines and the deprotonated hydroxamate O and via the O of the SO4(2-) counterions and the H(N) of the hydroxamate moiety. Spectrophotometric and speciation studies on the other heterobimetallic systems confirm that very similar species are being formed in solution and based on elemental analysis and spectroscopic results analogous complexes are formed in the solid-state. In this paper, we report the first examples of coordination polymers incorporating both Pt(II)/Cu(II), Pt(II)/Ni(II) and Pt(II)/Zn(II) and containing pyridinehydroxamic acids as bridging scaffolds.     

Crystallization pathways of sulfate-nitrate-ammonium aerosol particles

Crystallization experiments are conducted for aerosol particles composed of aqueous mixtures of (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(aq) and NH(4)NO(3)(aq), (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(aq) and NH(4)HSO(4)(aq), and NH(4)NO(3)(aq) and NH(4)HSO(4)(aq). Depending on the aqueous composition, crystals of (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(s), (NH(4))(3)H(SO(4))(2)(s), NH(4)HSO(4)(s), NH(4)NO(3)(s), 2NH(4)NO(3) x (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(s), and 3NH(4)NO(3) x (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(s) are formed. Although particles of NH(4)NO(3)(aq) and NH(4)HSO(4)(aq) do not crystallize even at 1% relative humidity, additions of 0.05 mol fraction SO(4)(2-)(aq) or NO(3)(-)(aq) ions promote crystallization, respectively. 2NH(4)NO(3) x (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(s) and (NH(4))(3)H(SO(4))(2)(s) appear to serve as good heterogeneous nuclei for NH(4)NO(3)(s) and NH(4)HSO(4)(s), respectively. 2NH(4)NO(3) x (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(s) crystallizes over a greater range of aqueous compositions than 3NH(4)NO(3) x (NH(4))(2)SO(4)(s). An infrared aerosol spectrum is provided for each solid based upon a linear decomposition analysis of the recorded spectra. Small nonzero residuals occur in the analysis because aerosol spectra depend on particle morphology, which changes slightly across the range of compositions studied. In addition, several of the mixed compositions crystallize with residual aqueous water of up to 5% particle mass. We attribute this water content to enclosed water pockets. The results provide further insights into the nonlinear crystallization pathways of sulfate-nitrate-ammonium aerosol particles.     

硝酸铵对SO2在大气颗粒物表面气-粒转化影响的模拟研究

利用流动态的原位傅里叶变换红外漫反射光谱(DRIFTS)对含硝酸铵气溶胶(以α-Fe₂O₃为主模拟气溶胶)与SO₂的非均相反应进行了研究, 比较了硝酸铵与其它金属氧化物(CaO, MgO, α-Al₂O₃和SiO₂)与SO₂反应的情况.实验结果表明, 硝酸铵和α-Fe₂O₃混合颗粒物比硝酸铵和其它金属氧化物混合颗粒与SO₂反应的吸附系数高, 表明α-Fe₂O₃比其它金属氧化物催化能力变强.利用BET面积作为反应活性表面积, 发现含有6％(质量分数)NH₄NO₃的α-Fe₂O₃混合颗粒物与SO₂反应具有最高的比表面积吸附系数(γ_BET=2.42×10^-9), 比纯氧化铁的反应高了近1.8倍.而纯NH₄NO₃颗粒与SO₂不发生反应, 表明少量硝酸铵的存在在一定程度上提高了SO₂在气溶胶颗粒物表面转化成硫酸盐的能力. 本文还讨论了含硝酸铵气溶胶与SO₂的反应机制及其对大气环境的影响.     

Determination of common inorganic anions and cations by non-suppressed ion chromatography with column switching

An ion chromatography (IC) method has been proposed for the determination of seven common inorganic anions (F(-), H(2)PO(4)(-), NO(2)(-), Cl(-), Br(-), NO(3)(-), and SO(4)(2-)) and/or five common inorganic cations (Na(+), NH(4)(+), K(+), Mg(2+), and Ca(2+)) using a single pump, a single eluent and a single detector. The present system used cation-exchange and anion-exchange columns connected in series via a single 10-port switching valve. The 10-port valve was switched for the separation of either cations or anions in a single chromatographic run. When 1.0mM trimellitic acid (pH 2.94) was used as the eluent, the seven anions and the five cations could be separated on the anion-exchange column and the cation-exchange column, respectively. The elution order was found to be F(-)相似文献   

载体酸性对铜基交联黏土催化剂上C3H6选择性催化还原NO反应的影响

采用聚合羟基复合阳离子合成交联蒙脱土Al-Ce-PILC, 并分别用NH4NO3和(NH4)2SO4处理后， 将其作为载体, 采用浸渍法制备了应用于C3H6选择性催化还原NO反应的铜基交联黏土催化剂Cu/Al-Ce-PILC. 用Py-IR， IR和DSC等表征技术研究了不同处理方式对Al-Ce-PILC的结构、 酸性和催化剂活性的影响. 结果表明, 未经处理的Al-Ce-PILC中同时存在L酸和B酸, 以L酸为主, Cu/Al-Ce-PILC上NO的最大转化率仅为18。5％; 用NH4NO3处理提高了L酸量, NO转化率降低; 而用(NH4)2SO4处理改变了Al-Ce-PILC的酸性结构, 增大了B酸量, 并形成了超强酸中心, 催化剂上NO转化率显著提高, 在350 ℃时达最大值50.2％. B酸对于Cu/Al-Ce-PILC上NO的还原是必要的, 它有利于C3H6吸附并适度氧化为活性中间物种, 其酸量和酸强度的增加是催化剂活性改善的主要原因.     

The metalla-Pinner reaction between Pt(IV)-bound nitriles and alkylated oxamic and oximic forms of hydroxamic acids

The nitrile ligands in the platinum(IV) complexes trans-[PtCl4(RCN)2] (R=Me, Et, CH2Ph) and cis/trans-[PtCl4(MeCN)(Me2SO)] are involved in a metalla-Pinner reaction with N-methylbenzohydroxamic acid (N-alkylated form of hydroxamic acid, hydroxamic form; F1), PhC(=O)N(Me)OH, to achieve the imino species [PtCl4[NH=C(R)ON(Me)C(=O)Ph]2 (1-3) and [PtCl4[NH=C(Me)ON(Me)C(=O)Ph](Me2SO)] (7), respectively. Treatment of trans-[PtCl4(RCN)2] (R=Me, Et) and cis/trans-[PtCl4(MeCN)(Me2SO)] with the O-alkylated form of a hydroxamic acid (hydroximic form), i.e. methyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzohydroximate, 2,4,6-(Me3C6H2)C(OMe)=NOH (F2A), allows the isolation of [PtCl4[NH=C(R)ON=C(OMe)(2,4,6-Me3C6H2)]2] (5, 6) and [PtCl4[NH=C(Me)ON=C(OMe)(2,4,6-Me3C6H2)](Me2SO)] (8), correspondingly. In accord with the latter reaction, the coupling of nitriles in trans-[PtCl4(EtCN)2] with methyl benzohydroximate, PhC(OMe)=NOH (F2B), gives [PtCl4[NH=C(Et)ON=C(OMe)Ph]2] (4). The addition proceeds faster with the hydroximic F2, rather than with the hydroxamic form F1. The complexes 1-8 were characterized by C, H, N elemental analyses, FAB+ mass-spectrometry, IR, 1H and 13C[1H] NMR spectroscopies. The X-ray structure determinations have been performed for both hydroxamic and hydroximic complexes, i.e. 2 and 6, indicating that the imino ligands are mutually trans and they are in the E-configuration.     

Sm掺杂对Fe2O3催化剂NH3-SCR反应活性及抗水抗硫性作用

氮氧化物(NO_x)是主要的环境污染物之一,会造成酸雨、光化学烟雾和温室效应等环境问题.氨选择性催化还原(NH₃-SCR)技术是目前控制NO_x排放的最有效技术.其中,Fe₂O₃催化剂因其良好的抗硫性和低廉的成本而受到广泛关注,有望用作NO_x消除催化剂,但是它的低温还原性差、脱硝效率低等缺点限制了其应用.近期研究表明,钐掺杂金属氧化物可以调节其表面酸碱性及氧化还原性,可有效提高氧化物催化剂的脱硝效率和抗水抗硫性能.因此,将铁、钐二者优势结合,为合成一种低温、高效、环境友好型脱硝催化剂提供了可能.本文通过柠檬酸辅助的溶胶凝胶法合成了一系列钐均匀掺杂入Fe₂O₃纳米颗粒的复合氧化物脱硝催化剂,采用X射线光电子能谱(XPS),氢气程序升温还原(H2-TPR),氨气程序升温脱附(NH₃-TPD)以及原位漫反射红外光谱(in situ DRIFTS)等方法研究了钐的掺杂对铁基催化剂脱硝效率和抗水抗硫性的影响,旨在揭示催化剂表面物理化学性质和催化活性之间的关系.通过活性测试发现,钐的掺杂可以使Fe_0.94Sm_0.06O_x催化剂在175?325℃时实现>95%的脱硝效率和>93%的N2选择性.动力学测试研究表明,当基于催化剂的比表面积计算时,Fe_0.94Sm_0.06O_x催化剂的脱硝效率是纯Fe₂O₃催化剂的11倍;基于质量计算时则为37倍.此外,250℃时抗水抗硫测试结果显示,Fe_0.94Sm_0.06O_x催化剂可以在通入200×10^-6SO₂+5 vol%H₂O,空速为90000 h^-1时脱硝效率保持83%达168小时,并且在切断H₂O和SO₂后,该催化剂的脱硝效率可以很快完全恢复.XPS和H2-TPR结果表明,钐的掺杂使Fe_0.94Sm_0.06O_x催化剂的表面产生了大量的表面吸附氧,从而促进了NO的氧化以及快速NH₃-SCR反应的进行.NH₃-TPD与原位DRIFTS结果表明,钐的掺杂增强了催化剂的表面酸性,有效地提高了NH₃的吸附和活化能力,进而提高了催化剂的脱硝效率.另外,钐的掺杂还可以促使NH₄HSO₄在Fe_0.94Sm_0.06O_x催化剂表面较低温度下的分解,从而使催化剂具有很好的抗水抗硫性能.     

Further studies on the fragmentation of protonated ions of peptides containing aspartic acid, glutamic acid, cysteine sulfinic acid, and cysteine sulfonic acid

Here we examined the fragmentation, on a quadrupole ion-trap mass spectrometer, of the protonated ions of a group of peptides containing one arginine and two different acidic amino acids, one being aspartic acid (Asp) or glutamic acid (Glu) and the other being cysteine sulfinic acid [C(SO2H)] or cysteine sulfonic acid [C(SO3H)]. Our results showed that, upon collisional activation, the cleavage of the peptide bond C-terminal to C(SO2H) is much more facile than that of the peptide bond C-terminal to Asp, Glu, or C(SO3H). There is no significant difference, however, in susceptibility to cleavage of peptide bonds that are C-terminal to Asp, Glu, and C(SO3H). To understand these experimental observations, we carried out B3LYP/6-31G* density functional theory calculations for a model cleavage reaction of GXG --> b2 + Gly, in which X is Asp, Glu, C(SO2H), or C(SO3H). Our calculation results showed that the cleavage reaction is thermodynamically more favorable when X = C(SO2H) than when X = Asp or C(SO3H). We attributed the less facile cleavage of the amide bond after Glu to that the formation of a six-membered ring b ion for Glu-bearing peptides is kinetically not as favorable as the formation of a five-membered ring b ion for peptides containing the other three acidic amino acids. The results from this study may provide useful tools for peptide sequencing.     

Complexes of molecular and ionic character in the same matrix layer: infrared studies of the sulfuric acid/ammonia system

The atmospherically important interaction products of sulfuric acid and ammonia molecules have been firstly observed by matrix isolation Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (MIS-FTIR). Infrared spectra of solid argon matrix layers, in which both H(2)SO(4) and NH(3) molecules were entrapped as impurities, were analyzed for bands not seen in matrix layers containing either of the parent molecules alone. Results were interpreted on the basis of spectral changes, experimental conditions, and semiempirically scaled frequencies from the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ and B3LYP/aug-cc-pVQZ calculations. Bands were assigned to complexes of the H(2)SO(4)·NH(3) and H(2)SO(4)·[NH(3)](2) general formulas. They differ significantly: the 1:1 H(2)SO(4)·NH(3) complex is a strongly hydrogen bonded complex, an analogue of the H(2)SO(4)·H(2)O complex, studied previously. For the 1:2 H(2)SO(4)·[NH(3)](2) complex, spectral results indicate an almost complete proton transfer forming a complex of essentially the two ionic moieties HSO(4)(-) and [H(3)N···H···NH(3)](+), an analogue of the [H(2)O···H···OH(2)](+) "Zundel ion".     

Application of a single electrode,modified with polydiphenylamine and dodecyl sulfate,for the simultaneous amperometric determination of electro-inactive anions and cations in ion chromatography

An amperometric sensor with a single working electrode for simultaneous determination of electro-inactive anions and cations, e.g. SO4(2-), Cl(-), NO3(-), Na(+), NH4(+), K(+), Mg(2+) and Ca(2+), was designed as a detector in ion chromatography. The modification of its working golden electrode was based on the incorporation of dodecyl sulfate into polydiphenylamine by electropolymerization of diphenylamine in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate. In ion-exclusion/cation-exchange chromatography, a set of well defined peaks of these anions and cations was obtained at the working potential, +1.35 V (vs. saturated calomel electrode) using a citric acid solution as eluent. The common anions and cations in mineral water samples were determined using this ion-chromatographic system with satisfactory results.     

Synthesis of amorphous mesoporous aluminophosphate materials with high thermal stability using a citric acid route

Amorphous mesoporous aluminophosphate materials synthesized from precursors of Al(NO3)3/H3PO4/NH4OH in the presence of citric acid, exhibit high specific surface areas, narrow pore size distributions and excellent thermal stabilities.     

Infrared and polarized Raman spectra of (CH3)2NH2Al(SO4)2 x 6H2O

FTIR and single crystal Raman spectra of (CH3)2NH2Al(SO4)2 x 6H2O have been recorded at 300 and 90 K and analysed. The shifting of nu1 mode to higher wavenumber and its appearance in Bg species contributing to the alpha(xz) and alpha(yz) polarizability tensor components indicate the distortion of SO4 tetrahedra. The presence of nu1 and nu2 modes in the IR spectrum and the lifting of degeneracies of nu2, nu3, and nu4 modes are attributed to the lowering of the symmetry of the SO4(2-) ion. Coincidence of the IR and Raman bands for different modes suggest that DMA+ ion is orientationally disordered. One of the H atoms of the NH2 group of the DMA+ ion forms moderate hydrogen bonds with the SO4(2-) anion. Al(H2O)6(3+) ion is also distorted in the crystal. The shifting of the stretching modes to lower wavenumbers and the bending mode to higher wavenumber suggest that H2O molecules form strong hydrogen bonds with SO4(2-) anion. The intensity enhancement and the narrowing of nu1SO4, deltaC2N and Al(H2O)6(3+) modes at 90 K confirm the settling down of the protons in the hydrogen bonds formed with H2O molecules and NH2 groups. This may be one of the reasons for the phase transition observed in the crystal.
