Chemo-bio catalysis using carbon supports: application in H2-driven cofactor recycling

Heterogeneous biocatalytic hydrogenation is an attractive strategy for clean, enantioselective C X reduction. This approach relies on enzymes powered by H₂-driven NADH recycling. Commercially available carbon-supported metal (metal/C) catalysts are investigated here for direct H₂-driven NAD⁺ reduction. Selected metal/C catalysts are then used for H₂ oxidation with electrons transferred via the conductive carbon support material to an adsorbed enzyme for NAD⁺ reduction. These chemo-bio catalysts show improved activity and selectivity for generating bioactive NADH under ambient reaction conditions compared to metal/C catalysts. The metal/C catalysts and carbon support materials (all activated carbon or carbon black) are characterised to probe which properties potentially influence catalyst activity. The optimised chemo-bio catalysts are then used to supply NADH to an alcohol dehydrogenase for enantioselective (>99% ee) ketone reductions, leading to high cofactor turnover numbers and Pd and NAD⁺ reductase activities of 441 h⁻¹ and 2347 h⁻¹, respectively. This method demonstrates a new way of combining chemo- and biocatalysis on carbon supports, highlighted here for selective hydrogenation reactions.

“受阻路易斯酸碱对”催化的2,3-二取代2H-1,4-苯并噁嗪氢化反应机理研究

在受阻路易斯酸碱对（FLPs）催化的2，3-二取代2H-1，4-苯并噁嗪氢化反应中，3号位取代基不同会导致反应效率极大改变，因此我们选取反应活性具有较大差别的三种底物作为模型化合物对其反应机理进行了研究，建立了氢化反应势能面.发现当B（C₆F₅）₃与2，3-二苯基2H-1，4-苯并噁嗪或2-甲基-3-苯基2H-1，4-苯并噁嗪混合后，会形成FLPs与路易斯酸碱加合物的混合物.而将B（C₆F₅）₃与2，3-二甲基2H-1，4-苯并噁嗪混合后主要形成没有催化活性的路易斯酸碱加合物，因其能量低于FLPs，在催化体系中不容易转化为FLPs，这导致三种模型化合物在FLPs催化的氢化反应中效率不同.进一步的取代基电子效应及位阻效应计算表明：B（C₆F₅）₃与2-甲基-3-取代2H-1，4-苯并噁嗪混合后形成的路易斯酸碱加合物和FLPs化合物之间稳定性差别源于3位取代基空间位阻不同.

Manipulating the electronic structures of silicon carbide nanotubes by selected hydrogenation

We show that the electronic and atomic structures of silicon carbide nanotubes (SiCNTs) undergo dramatic changes with hydrogenation from first-principles calculations based on density-functional theory. The exo-hydrogenation of a single C atom results in acceptor states close to the highest occupied valence band of pristine SiCNT, whereas donor states close to the lowest unoccupied conduction band appear as a Si atom being hydrogenated. Upon fully hydrogenating Si atoms, (8,0) and (6,6) SiCNTs become metallic with very high density of states at the Fermi level. The full hydrogenation of C atoms, on the other hand, increases the band gap to 2.6 eV for (8,0) SiCNT and decreases the band gap to 1.47 eV for (6,6) SiCNT, respectively. The band gap of SiCNTs can also be greatly increased through the hydrogenation of all the atoms.

A combinatorial approach to study solvent-induced self-assembly of mixed poly(methyl methacrylate)/polystyrene brushes on planar silica substrates: effect of relative grafting density

This article reports the study of the effect of relative grafting densities of two polymer chains on solvent-induced self-assembly of mixed poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/polystyrene (PS) brushes through a combinatorial approach. Gradient-mixed PMMA/PS brushes were synthesized from a gradient-mixed initiator-terminated monolayer by combining atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and nitroxide mediated radical polymerization (NMRP) in a two-step process. The gradient-mixed initiator-terminated monolayer was fabricated by first formation of a gradient in density of an ATRP initiator through vapor diffusion followed by backfilling of an NMRP-initiator-terminated trichlorosilane. After treatment of a gradient-mixed brush whose PS Mn was slightly lower than that of PMMA with glacial acetic acid, a selective solvent for PMMA, relatively ordered nanodomains were observed in the region where the ratio of PS to PMMA grafting density (number of polymer chains/nm2) was in the range from 0.67 to 2.17 and the overall grafting density was approximately 0.85 polymer chains/nm2. Contact angle hysteresis were high (> or =40 degrees ) in this region and XPS studies confirmed that the PMMA chains were enriched at the outermost layer. The nanodomains are speculated to be of a micellar structure with PS chains forming the core shielded by PMMA chains.

Structural and physical properties of the 6H BaRuO3 polymorph synthesized under high pressure

The single-phase 6H BaRuO₃ with the hexagonal BaTiO₃ structure was synthesized at 5 GPa and 1000 °C. Rietveld refinement of the powder X-ray data for the 6H phase resulted in the lattice parameters to be a=5.7127(1) Å and c=14.0499(2) Å; the average Ru-O distance and direct Ru-Ru distance in the Ru₂O₉ dioctahedron being 1.992(6) and 2.5658(14) Å, respectively. The electrical resistivity of the 6H BaRuO₃ follows a relationship of ρ versus T^3/2 below 60.0 K, a signature deviation from the Fermi-liquid behavior. Both magnetic susceptibility and specific heat data indicate that the 6H BaRuO₃ is an exchange-enhanced Pauli paramagnet due to the electron correlation effect with large Wilson ratio R_W and Stoner enhancement factor. The comprehensive evolution of transport and magnetic properties from 9R across 4H to 6H BaRuO₃ was discussed.
