纳米尺度氧化石墨烯层作为高效碳催化剂用于苄醇与芳香醛的绿色氧化

合成了纳米尺度氧化石墨烯(NGO)层,用作碳催化剂高效催化苄醇与芳香醛的氧化反应.对于醇氧化反应,当80℃时H2O2存在下,NGOs(20 wt％)可高效催化醇选择性生成醛,其反应速率和产率取决于醇上取代基的性质.对于4-硝基苄醇,反应24 h后,只有10％可转换为相应羧酸.相反,4-甲氧基苄醇和二苯基甲醇分别反应仅9和3h则可完全转化为对应的羧酸和酮.NGO碳催化剂上芳香醛氧化速率高于醇氧化速率.对于所有的醛,采用7 wt％ NGO作催化剂,在70℃反应2-3 h后,就可完全转化为相应羧酸.我们讨论了NGO催化剂结构对苄醇和芳香醛氧化反应影响的可能机理.

Computational NQR study of a boron nitride nanocone

Abstract  

The electronic structure of a boron nitride nanocone with 240° disclination, and some properties that derive from this structure, were studied by density-functional theory calculations. In the considered model there are only hexagonal rings, with the apex and mouth of the nanocone saturated by hydrogen atoms. The model was optimized, and then the nuclear quadrupole resonance parameters were calculated at the sites of ¹¹B and ¹⁴N nuclei. The results revealed that the nuclei in the boron nitride nanocone are divided into layers with similar electronic properties. The nuclei at the apex and mouth are very important for the electronic behavior of the nanocone, with ¹¹B playing the major role.     

Nano-sized Cu6Sn5 alloy prepared by a co-precipitation reductive route

Nano-sized Cu₆Sn₅ alloy powders were prepared by a co-precipitation reductive route using a hydrothermal method at 80 °C. The nano-size and morphology of the synthesized Cu₆Sn₅ alloy powders were evaluated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The obtained morphologies, chemical compositions are comparatively discussed. A variety of synthesis parameters, such as time, capping agent and sort of reductant, has an effect on the morphology of the obtained materials, and will be particularly highlighted.     

The thermal conductivities enhancement of mono ethylene glycol and paraffin fluids by adding β-SiC nanoparticles

Changes in the thermal conductivities of paraffin and mono ethylene glycol (MEG) as a function of β-SiC nanoparticle concentration and size was studied. An enhancement in the effective thermal conductivity was found for both fluids (i.e., both paraffin and MEG) upon the addition of nanoparticles. Although an enhancement in thermal conductivity was found, the degree of enhancement depended on the nanoparticle concentration in a complex way. An increase in particle-to-particle interactions is thought to be the cause of the enhancement. However, the enhancement became muted at higher particle concentrations compared to lower ones. This phenomenon can be related to nanoparticles interactions. An improvement in the thermal conductivities for both fluids was also found as the nanoparticle size shrank. It is believed that the larger Brownian motion for smaller particles causes more particle-to-particle interactions, which, in turn, improves the thermal conductivity. The role that the base-fluid plays in the enhancement is complex. Lower fluid viscosities are believed to contribute to greater enhancement, but a second effect, the interaction of the fluid with the nanoparticle surface, can be even more important. Nanoparticle-liquid suspensions generate a shell of organized liquid molecules on the particle surface. These organized molecules more efficiently transmit energy, via phonons, to the bulk of the fluid. The efficient energy transmission results in enhanced thermal conductivity. The experimentally measured thermal conductivities of the suspensions were compared to a variety of models. None of the models proved to adequately predict the thermal conductivities of the nanoparticle suspensions.     

A new dimensionless group model for determining the viscosity of nanofluids

Immobilization of lead contamination in soils by precipitation of non-assimilable for plants Pb-phosphate was considered. Glassy fertilizer of controlled release rate of the nutrients for plants as a source of phosphate anions was applied. Thermal analysis methods (TG/DTG/DTA) were used for the identification of components of Pb-precipitate, which being in statu nascendi have nonstoichiometric composition and disordered crystallographic structure difficult to identify by XRD method. Application of TA methods permits to demonstrate the negative role of Pb complexing citric acid solution simulating the natural soil conditions, which inhibits the Pb-phosphate of pyromorphite type formation.     

Cyclometalated organoplatinum(II) complexes: first example of a monodentate benzo[h]quinolyl ligand and a complex with bridging bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane

The cyclometalated complexes [Pt(ppy)R(SMe(2))] or [Pt(bhq)R(SMe(2))], where ppyH = 2-phenylpyridine, bhqH = benzo[h]quinoline and R = methyl or p-tolyl, react with bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, dppe, in a 1:1 ratio to give the corresponding complexes [Pt(κ(1)-C-ppy)R(dppe)] or [Pt(κ(1)-C-bhq)R(dppe)], in which the ppy or bhq ligands are monodentate and dppe is chelating. The similar reaction in a 2:1 ratio gives the binuclear complexes [{Pt(ppy)R}(2)(μ-dppe)] or [{Pt(bhq)R}(2)(μ-dppe)], in which the dppe ligands are in the unusual bridging bidentate bonding mode.     

Comparison of rheological behavior of branched polypropylene prepared by chemical modification and electron beam irradiation under air and N2

Chemical and electron beam irradiation methods were used to introduce a branched structure into polypropylene and propylene–ethylene copolymer. The chemical method was carried out in an internal mixer using initiator and TMPTMA monomer. In irradiation method, the polymer was irradiated by electron beam under air and nitrogen atmosphere. The branched structure in the modified polymer was confirmed by rheological measurements. While degradation was significant in chemical method, branching occurred efficiently by irradiation under air. Small amount of ethylene in the propylene copolymer promoted branching over degradation.
