Capturing aqueous [F]-fluoride with an arylboronic ester for PET: Synthesis and aqueous stability of a fluorescent [F]-labeled aryltrifluoroborate

The aqueous stability of aryltrifluoroborates is of importance to their use in transition metal mediated coupling reactions as well as their potential use in [¹⁸F]-labeled aryltrifluoroborate PET imaging agents. Nevertheless, few studies have fully characterized the solvolysis of fluoride from an aryltrifluoroborate in water. Using [¹⁹F] NMR, fluorescence and [¹⁸F]-labeling techniques, we disclose the composition of an aryltrifluoroborate of exceptional kinetic stability with respect to solvolytic defluoridation. This work not only highlights the potential of using [¹⁸F]-labeled aryltrifluoroborates for PET tracers, but provides a chemical platform and a general approach for evaluating the stability of other aryltrifluoroborates.

快速增长的对安全能源的需求,促使科研工作者不断探索高能量密度的可充锂离子电池(LIBs)。发展原位表征技术能更好地研究电池工作中的锂离子镶嵌机制和电池失效因素。固体核磁共振(NMR)能有效的测试短程化学环境:通过对~1H、~(6,7)Li、~(11)B、~(13)C、~(17)O、~(19)F、~(23)Na和~(31)P等同位素来探测电池材料的微观结构。除了魔角旋转(MAS)高分辨NMR谱图研究电池材料的精细结构之外,核磁共振还能无损地捕获、研究电池材料在充放电循环中的演化。因此,原位核磁共振NMR及成像(MRI)可拓展到电池充放电循环中的锂离子的动态演化以及锂离子浓度的时空分布信息。互为补充地,电子顺磁共振(EPR)及成像(EPRI)能有效地跟踪和捕获电极过渡金属、阴氧离子(O_2~(n-))的氧化还原过程。这些实时捕获的动态信息能更好地指导电极材料的构效、微观设计和电池组装的改进,最终获得优异的电化学性能。     

Pulsed gradient NMR study of anisotropic surfactant diffusion in the caesium perfluoro octanoate/D2O system

We use pulsed field gradient ¹⁹F NMR to measure the diffusion coefficients of surfactant molecules in the isotropic and lamellar phases of the caesium perfluoro octanoate (CsPFO)/D₂O system. An aligned lamellar sample is created by cooling through the nematic phase in the presence of a 1·4 T magnetic field. The director in the lamellar phase does not respond to ordinary field strengths, thus the aligned sample can be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise to place the director at a magic angle, where measurement of diffusion coefficients becomes possible. From a pair of so-obtained coefficients, we derive the principal values of the diffusion tensor corresponding to the directions parallel and perpendicular to the director (D_⊥ and D_⊥). We found D_∥ to be at least 20 times D_∥ a much larger anisotropy than is seen in electrical conductivity and water diffusion in similar systems. These results are compared to electrical conductivity, water and dye diffusion measurements.     

Effect of salt on the phase diagrams of two binary lyotropic liquid crystalline solutions

The effect of adding salts NH₄OH and CsOH to aqueous solutions of NH₄PFO and CsPFO, respectively, was studied for concentrations in the range 0 to 2 wt %. In both systems, the isotropic to nematic and nematic to lamellar phase transition temperatures were elevated. There was an insignificant effect on the width of the nematic range in the NH₄PFO system, while the nematic phase was widened by as much as ∼3°C in the case of CsPFO. High-resolution X-ray scattering measurements were performed to determine the micellar size and its dependence on temperature for 52 wt % NH₄PFO solution in water.

部分还原二氧化钛的NMR和EPR研究

Partially reduced TiO₂ nanomaterials have attracted significant interest because of their visible-light activity for catalysis and photodegradation. Herein, we prepared a partially reduced anatase TiO₂ (Re-A-TiO₂) nanoparticle material using a fast combustion method, demonstrating good activity toward decomposing methyl orange under visible light irradiation. The surface structure of the prepared material, after being surface-selectively ¹⁷O-labeled with H₂¹⁷O (¹⁷O-enriched water), was studied via ¹⁷O and ¹H solid-state magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, and the obtained results were compared to those of non-reduced anatase TiO₂ (A-TiO₂). The EPR results showed that the concentrations of paramagnetic species (i.e., oxygen vacancies (OV) and Ti³⁺) in Re-A-TiO₂ were much higher than that in A-TiO₂, while the former was associated with a higher OV/Ti³⁺ ratio. The intensities of the EPR signals were significantly affected by the adsorbed water, and this phenomenon was explored in combination with ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The ¹H species on Re-A-TiO₂ appeared at larger chemical shifts, denoting the increased acidity of the sample, and these ¹H species on Re-A-TiO₂ were more difficult to remove than those on A-TiO₂. On the other hand, different features were observed for the signals arising from the two-coordinated oxygen atoms (μ₂-O) in ¹⁷O NMR, suggesting a typical anatase TiO₂(101) surface on A-TiO₂, but a more complex surface environment for Re-A-TiO₂. Furthermore, a larger amount of hydroxyl groups (OH) were observed on Re-A-TiO₂ compared to that on A-TiO₂, indicating a larger proportion of exposed (001) facets on Re-A-TiO₂. However, the μ₂-O signals broadened and became similar when the drying temperature was increased to 100 ℃, indicating a non-faceted anatase TiO₂ surface in such conditions. Based on the EPR and NMR results, a significant fraction of the OH species is believed to be formed from the reaction of the paramagnetic centers and adsorbed water molecules. The ¹H→¹⁷O cross polarization (CP) MAS and two-dimensional heteronuclear correlation (2D HETCOR) NMR spectra were used to verify the spatial proximity of the hydrogen and oxygen species, confirming the spectral assignments of a strongly adsorbed water and one type of surface OH species. In particular, the ¹H NMR signals at approximately 11 ppm were ascribed to the hydrogen species in the intramolecular hydrogen bond. In summary, this study investigated the paramagnetic species and surface structure of anatase TiO₂ materials by combining EPR along with ¹H and ¹⁷O solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The differences in the surface structures of Re-A-TiO₂ and A-TiO₂ should be closely related to their different properties toward the photodegradation of methyl orange.     

Synthesis, structure and spectral study of two types of novel fluorescent BF2 complexes with heterocyclic 1,3-enaminoketone ligands

Two types of novel BF₂ complexes are readily obtained by the reaction of BF₃OEt with 3-(2-oxo-2-arylethylidene)-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinoxalin-2-ones or 3-(2-oxo-2-arylethylidene)-3,4-dihydrobenzo[1,4]oxazin-2-ones, respectively in refluxing acetic acid/toluene solvent mixture. The complexes are confirmed by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹B, ¹⁹F NMR and one of them is executed its X-ray crystallographic study. The outstanding photophysical properties of these complexes are determined by UV–vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopy.

Fluorinated tertiary alkoxides of some lanthanides: tris-trifluorotertiarybutoxides of lanthanum, praseodymium and europium

From reactions involving M{N(SiMe₃)₂}₃ (M = La, Pr and Eu) and triflurotertiary butano[(CF₃)Me₂COH; tftb.H], the compounds [La(tftb)₃(thf)_1.5] (1), [Pr(tftb)₃ (2) and [Eu(tftb)₃] (3) have been isolated.

X-ray crystallography has shown that 2 is the trimer [Pr₃(tftb)₉] and variable temperature ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR suggests that 3 is also a trimer, [Eu₃(tftb)₉].

Nuclear motion effects on the C, F and H shielding in methyl fluoride

The ¹⁹F , ¹³C and ¹H shielding in methyl fluoride and its deuterated isotopomers has been calculated from ab initio shielding surfaces for selected temperatures. In each case it is the stretching which contributes most to the nuclear motion corrections which total −9.425 ppm for the ¹⁹F shielding, −4.558 ppm for the ¹³C shielding and −0.601 ppm for the proton shielding. However, some second-order stretching and bending contributions are significant. The deuterium induced isotope shifts are substantial and should be easily measurable. There is a predicted nonadditivity in the ¹⁹F and ¹³C isotope shifts which can be traced to two of the bending contributions.     

Degradation of Hydrogenated Nitrile-butadiene Rubber in Aqueous Solutions of H2S or HCl

The degradation of hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene rubber(HNBR) soaped in aqueous solutions of H₂S and HCl was investigated. The samples unexposed and exposed to different solutions were characterized by ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance(¹³C NMR), X-ray photoelectron and infrared spectroscopies. In contrast to those of unexposed samples and samples soaped in HCl solution, the mechanical properties of samples exposed to H₂S solution significantly deteriorated, in which the new groups of C(=O)―NH₂, C―S―C and C=S emerged. The mechanism of C=S and C―S―C formation was speculated, except for that of the formation of group C(=O)―NH₂, which was widely discussed in acidic condition such as HCl solution. The formation of C―S―C was due to radical reaction initiated by mercapto radical and that of C=S was due to nucleophilic reaction initiated by mercapto cations. This finding is helpful to understanding the seal failure of HNBR in working environment containing H₂S.
