Indicator approach to develop a chemosensor for the colorimetric sensing of thiol-containing water and its application for the thiol detection in plasma

A strategy for the determination of the presence of thiol-containing amino acids was successfully established by simply assembling copper chloride and xylenol orange (3,3'-bis[N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)aminomethyl]-o-cresolsulfonephthalein trisodium salt; XO) in a 1 : 1 molar ratio in quasi-physiological water solution (pH 6.0). The copper(II)-XO ensemble was highly selective for thiol species such as cysteine, homocysteine, and glutathione without interference from other amino acids and could quantitatively detect thiol in the range from 10 to 200 μM with a linear relationship having an average molar absorbance constant of 6530 L mol(-1) cm(-1) in pure water. The whole recognition process for thiol gave rise to a rapid visual color change from purple-red to yellow which can be observed simultaneously with the naked-eye.     

一种基于光谱分析的二元不完全重叠色谱峰的分离解析方法

基于二极管阵列检测器获得的色谱-光谱数据,建立了一种二元不完全重叠液相色谱峰的解析方法: 色谱数据经过去噪、归一化处理后,计算各时间点的光谱差异并进行系统聚类分析,提取特征光谱后,利用非负最小二乘法对色谱-光谱矩阵进行解析,得到基于特征光谱的流出曲线,进而得到分离后的色谱峰。将解析结果和纯标样的色谱峰进行比较,解析后的光谱图和纯标样的光谱图无显著差异,保留时间相差小于0.01 min。实验结果表明,该方法在二元不完全重叠液相色谱峰的解析方面能取得良好的效果。     

Synthesis and characterization of novel conjugated polymers based on 3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione moiety

Three novel conjugated polymers bearing 3,4-bis（4-hexylthiophen-2-yl）-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione unit in their main chain have been synthesized successfully in good yields through Suzuki or Stille coupling reaction.Their molecular structures have been confirmed by FT-IR,¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR.All these copolymers exhibit broad and strong absorption bands in UV-vis region,and their optical band gaps are calculated to be 1.6-2.0 eV.suggesting that they have good coverage with the solar spectrum.These polymers have good thermostability and solubility in common organic solvents.Moreover,all these objective macromolecules possess high electron affinity of～3.8 eV determined from cyclic voltammetry measurement,implying that they are potential n-type polymeric photovoltaic materials.     

Direct ab initio dynamics study of radical C4H (X̃2Σ+) + CH4 reaction

The methane (CH(4)) hydrogen abstraction reaction by linear butadiynyl radical C(4)H (CCCCH) has been investigated by direct ab initio dynamics over a wide temperature range of 100-3000 K, theoretically. The potential energy surfaces (PESs) have been constructed at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ//BB1K/6-311G(d,p) levels of theory. Two different hydrogen abstraction channels by C(1) and C(4) of C(4)H (C(1)C(2)C(3)C(4)H) have been considered. The results indicate that the C(1) position of C(4)H is a more reactive site. The electron transfer behaviors of two possible channels are also analyzed by quasi-restricted orbital (QRO) in detail. The rate constants calculated by canonical variational transition-state theory (CVT) with the small-curvature tunneling correction (SCT) are in excellent agreement with available experimental values. The normal and three-parameter expressions of Arrhenius rate constants are also provided within 100-3000 K. It is expected to be helpful for further studies on the reaction dynamics behaviors over a wide temperature range where no experimental data is available so far.     

Preparation of hybrid mesoporous silica luminescent nanoparticles with lanthanide(III) complexes and their exhibition of white emission

We chose dipicolinic acid as a tridentate chelating unit featuring ONO donors to react with lanthanide(III) ions to yield tight and protective N(3)O(6) environments around the lanthanide(III) ions. We immobilized the lanthanide(III)-dipicolinic acid complexes on colloidal mesoporous silica with diameter smaller than 100 nm by a covalent bond grafting technique and obtained nearly monodisperse luminescent Eu-dpa-Si and Tb-dpa-Si functionalized hybrid mesoporous silica nanomaterials. These hybrid nanomaterials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, and photoluminescence spectroscopic techniques. The hybrid mesoporous silica nanoparticles exhibit intense emission lines upon UV-light irradiation, owing to the effective intramolecular energy transfer from the chromophore to the central lanthanide Eu(3+) and Tb(3+) ions. Furthermore, the functionalized nanomaterials can be turned to white light materials after annealing at high temperature.

Preparation of uniform rhodamine B-doped SiO2/TiO2 composite microspheres

Uniform rhodamine B (RB)-doped SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres with catalytic and fluorescent properties were prepared by an easy and economical method in this paper. The composite microspheres were built up with well-dispersed silica particles as the cores, RB as both the doped agent and stabilizer, and the TiO₂ shells were obtained through the hydrolysis of TiCl₄ in water bath. The morphology and structure of the particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The characterization results indicate that composite particles are all in spherical shape and have a narrow size distribution. The composite particles calcined above 500 °C reveal clear crystalline reflection peaks of the rutile TiO₂ which exhibits well catalytic property. The photocatalytic experiment was carried out in order to examine the catalytic property of composite microspheres. The fluorescent property of particles was also investigated. Dye-leakage test indicates that RB molecules entrapped in the composite particles by this method are stable inside the particles.
