Tailoring pore properties of MCM-48 silica for selective adsorption of CO2

Four different types of amine-attached MCM-48 silicas were prepared and investigated for CO(2) separation from N(2). Monomeric and polymeric hindered and unhindered amines were attached to the pore surface of the MCM-48 silica and characterized with respect to their CO(2) sorption properties. The pore structures and amino group content in these modified silicas were investigated by XRD, FT-IR, TGA, N(2) adsorption/desorption at 77 K and CHN/Si analysis, which confirmed that in all cases the amino groups were attached to the pore surface of MCM-48 at 1.5-5.2 mmol/g. The N(2) adsorption/desorption analysis showed a considerable decrease of the pore volume and surface area for the MCM-48 silica containing a polymeric amine (e.g., polyethyleneimine). The CO(2) adsorption rates and capacities of the amine-attached MCM-48 samples were studied employing a sorption microbalance. The results obtained indicated that in addition to the concentration of surface-attached amino groups, specific interactions between CO(2) and the surface amino groups, and the resultant pore structure after amine group attachment have a significant impact on CO(2) adsorption properties of these promising adsorbent materials.     

MO(M=Cu和Ni)/TiO2/-Al2O3催化剂在CO+O2反应中的活性

采用X射线衍射(XRD),程序升温还原(TPR)等表征手段考察了TiO2改性对CuO(或NiO)在γ-Al2O3表面上分散以及还原性能的影响,同时检测了这些改性的催化剂在CO+O2反应中的活性.结果表明:TiO2的改性使得CuO和NiO在γ-Al2O3载体上的分散复杂化,产生了多种状态的氧化铜(氧化镍)物种.当负载量低于其在γ-Al2O3上的分散容量(0.56 mmol Ti4+/100 m2γ-Al2O3)时,TiO2的加入主要是抑制了CuO和NiO在γ-Al2O3载体上的分散;而当负载量远大于其分散容量时,出现了CuO和NiO在晶相TiO2(锐钛矿)上的分散.无论其负载量如何,TiO2的加入促进了CuO的还原.因此,在250℃的CO+O2反应中,改性的催化剂中具有更多的活性位,因而显示出更高的活性;相反,TiO2的改性则抑制了NiO的还原.因此,在350℃的CO+O2反应中,可还原的氧化镍的量明显少于未经改性的催化剂,导致改性催化剂的活性降低.

The synthesis of biologically relevant 4(5)-phosphono-5(4)-aminoimidazoles using a Pd-catalyzed coupling reaction

Regiochemically defined 1-benzyl-4-phosphono-5-carboalkoxyimidazoles were synthesized from the corresponding 4-bromoimidazoles using a tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0)-catalyzed coupling reaction with diethyl phosphite. The corresponding Michaelis-Arbusov reaction failed to give a phospho-nylated product. The carbomethoxy moiety was converted to an amino group using a Curtius rearrangement to afford 1-benzyl-4-phosphono-5-amino-imidazoles. Following deprotection and hydrolysis, phos-phonic acid-linked aminoimidazoles were accessed that resemble intermediates formed during purine biosynthesis.     

Synthesis and Surface-Active Properties of New Photosensitive Surfactants Containing the Azobenzene Group

Several water-soluble cationic surfactants, 4-alkylazobenzene-4'-(oxy-2-hydroxypropyl)trimethylammonium methylsulfate (AZMS) (AZMS-0, AZMS-1, AZMS-2, AZMS-4, and AZMS-8), containing alkylglycidylether and azoarene have been synthesized with high yields of 63-78% and their surface-active properties have been investigated upon irradiation with UV/vis light. All of the trans-AZMS surfactants are isomerized to cis-trans mixtures containing 92.5% cis isomer by UV light irradiation at 350 nm. The cis isomers in the mixtures are reverted to trans isomers by visible light irradiation (lambda>445 nm). Such photoisomerization induces changes in the surface activity of each surfactant. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the trans form of AZMS-8 surfactant is about 1.28x10(-4) mol/l. At the photostationary state, 92.5% of the trans form is changed to the cis form which exhibits a slightly higher cmc (3.41x10(-4) mol/l). The new cmc of AZMS surfactants upon photoisomerization is similar to that of the ideal mixed micellar system. In particular, the ratio of cmc(cis) to cmc(trans) of AZMS derivatives is about 1.87-2.85 which increases proportionally with the chain length of alkyl group. The minimum average area per molecule (A(min)(a/w)) for the trans and cis isomers of AZMS-8 is 0.60 and 0.74 nm(2), respectively. The difference in the A(min)(a/w) may originate from the structural differences in the two isomers. These values are quite different as compared to those of the conventional azobenzene surfactants.

Influence of the Size of Aromatic Chelate Ligands on the Structures of Cadmium(II) Tetracarboxylates Polymers: From 2D Layered Network to 3D Metal‐Organic Framework

To determine the influence of the size of the aromatic chelate ligands on the frameworks of metal tretracarboxylate polymers, two new coordination polymers [Cd(btc)_0.5 (2,2′‐bpy)] ( 1 ) and [Cd(btc)_0.5(phen)]·H₂O ( 2 ) (H₄btc = biphenyl‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetracarboxylic acid, 2,2′‐bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline) have been synthesized under similar hydrothermal conditions. In complex 1 , the dimeric Cd₂ units are linked by bridging btc^4? ligand to form a 2D layered network, whereas complex 2 possesses a 3D metal‐organic framework consisting of the dimeric Cd₂ units. The differences of two metal‐organic frameworks demonstrate that the size of the rigid aromatic chelate ligands have an important effect on the structures of their complexes. Additionally, the two complexes show strong fluorescence in the solid state at room temperature.     

Determination of minor conformational changes of a doxorubicin-peptide conjugate under chromatographic conditions

Thermodynamic analysis of the reversed-phase retention behavior of a doxorubicin-peptide conjugate demonstrated that the degree of non-linearity observed in Van't Hoff plots was impacted by mobile phase acetonitrile content over the 25-38% acetonitrile (v/v) range tested. Small decreases in the non-polar surface area of the doxorubicin-peptide conjugate as a function of temperature were estimated from these data using linear solvent strength relationships, suggesting that the retention behavior may be the result of minor analyte conformational changes during the chromatographic experiment. This hypothesis was supported via circular dichroism (CD), Raman and 1H NMR spectroscopic studies of the doxorubicin-peptide conjugate in selected chromatographic mobile phase compositions. The CD and Raman data indicated small changes to the apparent analyte microenvironment as a function of temperature and bulk solvent environment, while 1H NMR studies specifically demonstrated the environmental sensitivity of protons on three non-polar peptide residues and the proximal aromatic region of the analyte. Together, these data suggest that minor changes to the conformational order of the essentially random structure of the doxorubicin-peptide conjugate are sufficient to impact chromatographic performance.     

Phenanthroline complexes bearing diamide-anion recognition sites

The synthesis and anion binding properties of new ruthenium(II) and cobalt(II) phenanthroline complexes, containing two amide subunits are described. Evidence for anion binding in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution was obtained from u.v.–vis titration experiments. Results indicated that these receptors showed strong affinity for F⁻ and AcO⁻, and showed weak affinity for OH⁻ and H₂PO ₄ ⁻ , and showed no affinity for Cl⁻, Br⁻, I⁻. These receptors interacted with various anions examined through hydrogen-bond formation.

恒定二价与三价阳离子比为3(nM2+/nM3+=3),采用共沉淀法制备不同Cu含量的系列水滑石前驱物, 800 ℃焙烧4 h形成复合氧化物(CuO质量百分数分别为0％、5％、10％、15％、20％、30％、40％)用作柴油车排放碳颗粒物燃烧的催化剂,并采用XRD、BET、TG-DSC、FT-IR、TPR等表征手段研究了Cu、Mg含量对材料前驱物物化性能的影响及对其衍生复合氧化物催化碳颗粒物燃烧性能的影响．结果表明,Cu、Mg含量对材料的热稳定性、比表面和催化氧化活性有显著的影响. Mg有助于提高催化剂的热稳定性; Cu含量增加,催化剂比表面下降,但比表面不是影响催化剂活性的主要因素. CuO含量为15％时,催化剂具有最好的催化活性和稳定性,碳颗粒物的起燃温度(T10)和半转化温度(T50)分别为336 ℃和409 ℃.在CuO含量≤30％时可以形成结构完整的水滑石前驱物, CuO含量为40％时出现Cu(OH)2杂相; CuO含量< 20％时,经高温焙烧可得到均匀的复合氧化物, CuO含量≥20％时出现CuO偏析． TPR结果表明焙烧温度和复合氧化物的组成决定了材料的可还原性能．
