Electrooxidation of Nitric Oxide at a Glass Carbon Electrode Modified with Functionalized Single-walled Carbon Nanotube

The electrocatalytic oxidation of nitric oxide(NO) at a glass carbon electrode(GC) modified with functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWCNTs) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry(CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).It was found that the SWCNT modified electrode could speed greatly up the electron transfer rate compared with the bare GC electrode.After the SWCNT was treated with alkali or mixed acids,the reaction rate and activation energy of NO electrooxidation were changed to different extent.Chemical modification of the SWCNT surface is one of the most powerful methods to change the sensitivity of NO electrooxidation reaction.The modified electrode with SWCNT obtained by the firstly alkali treatment and then the mixed acids treatment was the best one for NO electrooxidation,the result of CV was also confirmed by that of EIS.The anodic processes of NO were recognized more clearly by exploring the reaction mechanism of NO electrooxidation at the SWCNT modified electrode.     

Enantioselectivity of adsorption sites created by chiral 2-butanol adsorbed on Pt(111) single-crystal surfaces

The adsorption and thermal chemistry of 2-butanol and propylene oxide, each individually and when coadsorbed together, were characterized on Pt(111) single-crystal surfaces by using temperature programmed desorption and reflection-adsorption infrared spectroscopies. The formation of chiral superstructures on the surface upon the deposition of submonolayer coverages of enantiopure 2-butoxide species, produced by thermal dehydrogenation of 2-butanol, was highlighted by their difference in behavior toward the adsorption of the two enantiomers of propylene oxide. It was found that a significant enhancement in adsorption is possible on surfaces with the same chirality of the probe molecule, that is, for (R)-propylene oxide adsorption on (R)-2-butoxide layers and for (S)-propylene oxide adsorption on (S)-2-butoxide layers. The propylene oxide probe was found to also adsorb with the ring closer to the surface in those cases. Finally, less butoxide decomposition is seen at higher temperatures from the homochiral pairing, presumably because the coadsorbed propylene oxide forces the alkoxides into a more compact and better packed structure on the surface.     

Microporous polycyanurate networks

A general means of generating nanofoams from thermosetting materials was investigated. Foams were prepared from a thermosetting monomer copolymerized with a thermally labile material, such that the thermally labile coblock is the dispersed phase. Upon thermal treatment, the thermally unstable block undergoes thermolysis, leaving pores where the size and shape are dictated by the initial morphology. For this investigation the thermosetting resin was prepared from a cyanate monomer (4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphenyl-cyanate), with either poly(propylene oxide) or a propylene oxide–urethane copolymer as the thermally labile block. The propylene oxide-based oligomers were molecularly miscible with the cyanate resin over the entire range of compositions, and molecular weights investigated, but developed a two-phase structure upon reaction to form the polycyanurate thermoset. The molecular weight and composition of propylene oxide chemically incorporated into the polycyanurate was varied along with the curing condition, solvents, and catalyst. Dynamic mechanical and small-angle x-ray scattering measurements demonstrated a two-phase morphology in the cured networks wherein the propylene oxide domains are dispersed in the polycyanurate matrix. Upon decomposition of the propylene oxide component, however, the foam was found to collapse. Samples with the larger void size retained, to a large extent, their void composition upon the thermolysis of the propylene oxide component. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Comparative kinetic studies of the copolymerization of cyclohexene oxide and propylene oxide with carbon dioxide in the presence of chromium salen derivatives. In situ FTIR measurements of copolymer vs cyclic carbonate production

The catalysis of the reaction of carbon dioxide with epoxides (cyclohexene oxide or propylene oxide) using the (salen)Cr(III)Cl complex as catalyst, where H(2)salen = N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexenediimine (1), to provide copolymer and cyclic carbonate has been investigated by in situ infrared spectroscopy. As previously demonstrated for the cyclohexene oxide/CO(2) reaction in the presence of complex 1, coupling of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide was found to occur by way of a pathway first-order in catalyst concentration. Unlike the cyclohexene oxide/carbon dioxide reaction catalyzed by complex 1, which affords completely alternating copolymer and only small quantities of trans-cyclic cyclohexyl carbonate, under similar conditions propylene oxide/carbon dioxide produces mostly cyclic propylene carbonate. Comparative kinetic measurements were performed as a function of reaction temperature to assess the activation barrier for production of cyclic carbonates and polycarbonates for the two different classes of epoxides, i.e., alicyclic (cyclohexene oxide) and aliphatic (propylene oxide). As anticipated in both instances the unimolecular pathway for cyclic carbonate formation has a larger energy of activation than the bimolecular enchainment pathway. That is, the energies of activation determined for cyclic propylene carbonate and poly(propylene carbonate) formation were 100.5 and 67.6 kJ.mol(-1), respectively, compared to the corresponding values for cyclic cyclohexyl carbonate and poly(cyclohexylene carbonate) production of 133 and 46.9 kJ.mol(-1). The small energy difference in the two concurrent reactions for the propylene oxide/CO(2) process (33 kJ.mol(-1)) accounts for the large quantity of cyclic carbonate produced at elevated temperatures in this instance.

Differences in Reactivity of Epoxides in the Copolymerisation with Carbon Dioxide by Zinc-Based Catalysts: Propylene Oxide versus Cyclohexene Oxide

The homogeneous dinuclear zinc catalyst going back to the work of Williams et al. is to date the most active catalyst for the copolymerisation of cyclohexene oxide and CO₂ at one atmosphere of carbon dioxide. However, this catalyst shows no copolymer formation in the copolymerisation reaction of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide, instead only cyclic carbonate is found. This behaviour is known for many zinc‐based catalysts, although the reasons are still unidentified. Within our studies, we focus on the parameters that are responsible for this typical behaviour. A deactivation of the catalyst due to a reaction with propylene oxide turns out to be negligible. Furthermore, the catalyst still shows poly(cyclohexene carbonate) formation in the presence of cyclic propylene carbonate, but the catalyst activity is dramatically reduced. In terpolymerisation reactions of CO₂ with different ratios of cyclohexene oxide to propylene oxide, no incorporation of propylene oxide can be detected, which can only be explained by a very fast back‐biting reaction. Kinetic investigations indicate a complex reaction network, which can be manifested by theoretical investigations. DFT calculations show that the ring strains of both epoxides are comparable and the kinetic barriers for the chain propagation even favour the poly(propylene carbonate) over the poly(cyclohexene carbonate) formation. Therefore, the crucial step in the copolymerisation of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide is the back‐biting reaction in the case of the studied zinc catalyst. The depolymerisation is several orders of magnitude faster for poly(propylene carbonate) than for poly(cyclohexene carbonate).
