采用双掺杂(Yb^3 ／Ho^3 )和多掺杂(Ho^3 ／Yb^3 ／Tm^3 )方式,研究了氟化物中Yb^3 对Ho^3 ,Tm^3 的直接敏化上转换作用,并对它们在980nm激光激发下的上转换光谱特性进行了比较,对它们的上转换机理作了详细的讨论分析。观测到两处很强的上转换发光,分别是Yb^3 ／Ho^3 共掺杂体系中^5F4^5S2(Ho^3 )→^5Is(Ho^3 )的荧光跃迁和Ho^3 ／Yb^3 ／Tm^3 共掺杂体系中^3H4(Tm^3 )→H6(Tm^3 )的荧光跃迁。还发现由于添加了Tm^3 ,减弱了Yb^3 ／Ho^3 共掺杂体系中Ho^3 在可见光范围的上转换发光强度。     

Hydrophosphonylation of activated alkenes and alkynes via fluoride ion activation in ionic liquid medium

A simple transition metal-free hydro/hydrothiophosphonylation of Baylis-Hillman adducts, substituted allyl bromides, allenylphosphonates and alkynes, promoted by fluoride ion in ionic liquid, is described. Clear-cut evidence for fluoride activation of the phosphite via pentacoordinate phosphorus is provided for the first time. Also, in a comparative reaction, the product obtained was different from that from the palladium catalyzed one. Structures of key products are proven by X-ray crystallography.     

Design and synthesis of an ortho-phenylenediamine-based open cleft: a selective fluorescent chemosensor for dihydrogen phosphate

A new ortho-phenylenediamine-based fluorescent cleft 1 has been designed and synthesized. The open cleft of 1 selectively recognizes tetrabutylammonium dihydrogen phosphate in CH₃CN by exhibiting a significant decrease in the emission of anthracene. The interactions of 1 are also investigated in aq CH₃OH where no measurable change in the emission is observed for tetrabutylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, although sodium salts of phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, and dihydrogen phosphate exhibit moderate changes. Tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate is sensed effectively in aq CH₃OH. The anion binding properties of 1 were evaluated by ¹H NMR, UV-vis, and fluorescence spectroscopic methods.     

Fluoride removal using lanthanum incorporated chitosan beads

Highly selective material based on naturally occurring biomaterial namely chitosan has been designed for the defluoridation of water. Lanthanum incorporated chitosan beads (LCB) were prepared using precipitation method. The synthesis was optimized by varying different synthesis parameters namely lanthanum loading, complexation and precipitation time, strength of ammonia solution used for precipitation, drying time, etc. Lanthanum incorporated chitosan beads were characterized using SEM, FTIR, XRD and EDX. Surface area of LCB was observed to be 2.76 m² g⁻¹. The equilibrium adsorption data fitted well to Langmuir adsorption isotherm and showing maximum fluoride adsorption capacity of 4.7 mg g⁻¹ with negligible lanthanum release. Kinetic study reveals that adsorption of fluoride is fast and follows pseudo-first-order kinetics. The effect of pH was also studied and the best efficiency was observed at pH 5. Presence of sulphate, nitrate and chloride marginally affected the removal efficiency, however drastic reduction in fluoride uptake was observed in the presence of carbonate and bicarbonate. Negative value of change in free energy (ΔG°) and positive value of change in entropy (ΔS°) suggest the adsorption of fluoride by LCB is feasible and spontaneous process. Positive value of change in enthalpy (ΔH°) suggests the process of fluoride adsorption is endothermic in nature. Regeneration study reveals that 1 M ammonium chloride solution appears to be the promising regeneration media showing 81.22% regeneration. The adsorption capacity of LCB was similar in fluoride-contaminated ground water collected from Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh, India, as compared to simulated water.     

Bi1.5ZnNb1.5O7 cubic pyrochlore ceramics prepared by aqueous solution–gel method

Bi_1.5ZnNb_1.5O₇ cubic pyrochlore ceramic was successfully prepared by the aqueous solution method. The preparation, microstructure development and dielectric properties of ceramics were investigated. Homogeneous precalcined ceramics powders have a cubic pyrochlore phase after thermal treatment at the temperature as low as 450 °C. The aqueous solution–gel method, which Bi, Zn and Nb ions are chelated to form metal complexes, leading to the formation of cubic pyrochlore phase at low firing temperatures. No detectable intermediary phase such as BiNbO₄ or pseudo-orthorhombic pyrochlore is observed in the XRD patterns of ceramics at the sintering temperature range from 850 to 1,000 °C. The dielectric properties study revealed that the ceramics sintered at 900 °C show excellent performance with dielectric constant of 111 and dielectric loss of 2.3871 × 10⁻⁴ under 1 MHz at room temperature.

Influence of hydrofluoric acid on extraction of thorium using a commercially available extraction chromatographic resin

The dependence of Th recovery on hydrofluoric acid (HF) concentration in nitric acid (HNO₃) solutions (1–5 mol/dm³) containing 1 × 10⁻⁶ mol/dm³ of Th and various concentrations of HF and the elution behavior were studied using a commercially available UTEVA (for uranium and tetravalent actinide) resin column. Thorium recovery decreased with an increase in HF concentration in the sample solutions. The concentration of HF at which Th recovery started to decrease was ∼1 × 10⁻⁴ mol/dm³ in 1 mol/dm³ HNO₃ solution, ∼1 × 10⁻³ mol/dm³ in 3 mol/dm³ HNO₃ solution, and ∼1 × 10⁻² mol/dm³ in 5 mol/dm³ HNO₃ solution. When Al(NO₃)₃ (0.2 mol/dm³) or Fe(NO₃)₃ (0.6 mol/dm³) was added as a masking agent for F⁻ to the Th solution containing 1 × 10⁻¹ mol/dm³ HF and 1 mol/dm³ HNO₃, Th recovery improved from 1.4 ± 0.3% to 95 ± 5% or 93 ± 3%. Effective extraction of Th using UTEVA resin was achieved by selecting the concentration of HNO₃ and/or adding masking agents such as Al(NO₃)₃ according to the concentration of HF in the sample solution.     

A widely varying range of products in reactions of C6F5BrF2, C6F5IF2, and C6F5IF4 with Lewis acids of different strength

The relative fluoride donor ability: C₆F₅BrF₂ > C₆F₅IF₂ > C₆F₅IF₄ was outlined from reactions with Lewis acids of graduated strength in different solvents. Fluoride abstraction from C₆F₅HalF₂ with BF₃·NCCH₃ in acetonitrile (donor solvent) led to [C₆F₅HalF·(NCCH₃)_n][BF₄]. The attempted generation of [C₆F₅BrF]⁺ from C₆F₅BrF₂ and anhydrous HF or BF₃ in weakly coordinating SO₂ClF gave C₆F₅Br besides bromoperfluorocycloalkenes C₆BrF₇ and 1-BrC₆F₉. In reactions of C₆F₅IF₂ with SbF₅ in SO₂ClF the primary observed intermediate (¹⁹F NMR, below 0 °C) was the 4-iodo-1,1,2,3,5,6-hexafluorobenzenium cation, which converted into C₆F₅I and 1-IC₆F₉ at 20 °C. The reaction of C₆F₅IF₄ with SbF₅ in SO₂ClF below −20 °C gave the cation [C₆F₅IF₃]⁺ which decomposed at 20 °C to C₆F₅I, 1-iodoperfluorocyclohexene, and iodoperfluorocyclohexane. Principally, the related perfluoroalkyl compound C₆F₁₃IF₄ showed a different type of products in the fast reaction with AsF₅ in CCl₃F (−60 °C) which resulted in C₆F₁₄. Intermediate and final products of C₆F₅HalF_n−1 (n = 3, 5) with Lewis acids were characterized by NMR in solution. Stable solid products were isolated and analytically characterized.     

Nucleophilic substitution of nitro groups by [F]fluoride in methoxy-substituted ortho-nitrobenzaldehydes—A systematic study

As model reactions for the introduction of [¹⁸F]fluorine into aromatic amino acids, the replacement of NO₂ by [¹⁸F]fluoride ion in mono- to tetra-methoxy-substituted ortho-nitrobenzaldehydes was systematically investigated. Unexpectedly, the highly methoxylated precursors 2,3,4-trimethoxy-6-nitrobenzaldehyde and 2,3,4,5-tetramethoxy-6-nitrobenzaldehyde showed high maximum radiochemical yields (82% and 48% respectively). When the electrophilicity of the leaving group substituted carbon atom is expressed by its ¹³C NMR chemical shift a good correlation with the reaction rate at the beginning of the reaction (first min) was found (R² = 0.89), whereas the maximum radiochemical yields correlated much poorer with this electrophilicity parameter. This may be caused by side reactions becoming influencial in the further reaction course. As possible side reactions the demethylation of methoxy groups and intramolecular redox reactions could be detected by HPLC/MS.
