Electrochemical study of bergenin on a poly(4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol) modified glassy carbon electrode and its determination in tablets and urine

A very sensitive electroanalytical method was employed to determine bergenin in phosphate buffer with a pH of 6.0, bergenin was accumulated at a 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR) polymer film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface under the condition of open-circuit. In the following anodic sweep from −0.4 to 0.8 V, bergenin adsorbed at the PAR polymer film modified electrode surface, was oxidized and yielded a sensitive oxidation peak at 0.595 V. Due to its unique structure and extraordinary properties, the PAR polymer film shows higher accumulation efficiency toward bergenin compared with a bare GCE. Hence, the amount of bergenin at the PAR polymer film modified GCE surface increases significantly, and finally the oxidation peak current improves greatly. The experimental conditions, such as supporting electrolyte, pH value, accumulation time and scan rate, were optimized for the measurement of bergenin, and a sensitive electroanalytical method was proposed for bergenin determination. The oxidation peak current varies linearly with the concentration of bergenin over the range of 2.0 × 10⁻⁷ to 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L, and the detection limit is 2.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol/L after 3 min open-circuit accumulation. The relative standard deviation of the same electrode in 10 successive scans is 1.8% for 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ mol/L bergenin and 2.1% for interelectrodes, indicating excellent reproducibility. This new method was successfully demonstrated with bergenin tablets and diluted urine.

Oxidation resistant germanium nanowires: bulk synthesis, long chain alkanethiol functionalization, and Langmuir-Blodgett assembly

A simple method is developed to synthesize gram quantities of uniform Ge nanowires (GeNWs) by chemical vapor deposition on preformed, monodispersed seed particles loaded onto a high surface area silica support. Various chemical functionalization schemes are investigated to passivate the GeNW surfaces using alkanethiols and alkyl Grignard reactions. The stability of functionalization against oxidation of germanium for various alkyl chain lengths is elucidated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Among all schemes tested, long chain alkanethiols (> or = C12) are found to impart the most stable GeNW passivation against oxidation upon extended exposure to ambient air. Further, the chemically functionalized oxidation-resistant nanowires are soluble in organic solvents and can be readily assembled into close-packed Langmuir-Blodgett films potentially useful for future high performance electronic devices.

Concurrent Covalent and Supramolecular Polymerization

Covalent and supramolecular polymerizations, both of which offer their own unique advantages, have emerged as popular strategies for making artificial materials. Herein, we describe a concurrent covalent and supramolecular polymerization strategy—namely, one which utilizes 1) a bis‐azide‐functionalized diazaperopyrenium dication that undergoes polymeriation covalently with a bis‐alkyne‐functionalized biphenyl derivative in one dimension as a result of a rapid and efficient β‐cyclodextrin(CD)‐accelerated, cucurbit[6]uril(CB)‐templated azide–alkyne cycloaddition, while 2) the aromatic core of the dication is able to dimerize in a criss‐cross fashion by dint of π–π interactions, enabling simultaneous supramolecular assembly, resulting in an extended polymer network in an orthogonal dimension.
