稀有气体二聚体基准集NgD×15构建及其对DFT方法的评价

基准集是训练和评价量子化学计算方法的重要工具,稀有气体二聚体Ng_2作为重要的弱色散体系,目前为止仍没有一个较为完整、精确的基准集,最近Head Gordon研究组发表MGCD84数据库时,其RG10基准集仍沿用了Tang-Toennies经验势.本文首先以He_2为例,证明了在CCSD(T)水平,使用中点键函数{6s6p6d3f2g1h}的aug-cc-pV5Z基组收敛性;并在CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pV5Z-{6s6p6d3f2g1h}水平下,经BSSE均衡校正后,获得了He_2至Rn_2全部同核稀有气体二聚体的15点相互作用势,构建了NgD×15基准集.并以此为标准,重新评价了目前常用的DFT的非局域和色散校正方法.总体上,非局域校正的精度较D3色散校正高,ωB97X-V及ωB97X-rV两种方法是该体系最优性价比的DFT-NL方法.     

衬底温度对Ga液滴在Al_(0.4)Ga_(0.6)As表面形成纳米结构的影响

本文研究了不同衬底温度对Ga液滴在Al_(0.4)Ga_(0.6)As表面形成纳米结构的影响,当300℃≤T≤380℃时,Ga液滴演化成纳米孔(Nanohole)和盘状结构(diffusion halo),纳米结构的尺寸随温度升高而增大.当T≥385℃时,盘状结构消失,形成一定平坦的Al_xGa_(1-x)As薄膜,Ga液滴在界面处继续向下刻蚀直至耗尽,形成平均直径为75 nm,平均孔深为5.52 nm的纳米孔.本文还通过盘状结构测出平均扩散长度△R,并拟合出Ga原子在Al_(0.4)Ga_(0.6)As表面的激活能E_A=0.78(±0.01) eV和扩散前因子D_0=0.15(×4.1~(±1))10~(-2 ) cm~2s~(-1).

Effects of ultrasound-assisted enzyme hydrolysis on the microstructure and physicochemical properties of okara fibers

This work focuses on the effects of different ultrasound power densities on the microstructural changes and physicochemical properties of okara fibers, which are composed of carbohydrate-based polymers. Okara suspensions were treated with ultrasound at different power densities (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 W/mL) for 30 min, after which the ultrasound-treated okara were hydrolyzed by trypsin to obtain okara fibers. The ultrasound treatment of the okara fibers induced structural disorganization and changes, evidenced mainly in their morphological characteristics and their relative crystallinity degrees. Increasing the ultrasound power broke the okara fibers into flaky and stacked structures. When the ultrasound power density reached 4 W/mL, the parenchyma became compact and the hourglass structure fractured. The mean particle size of the okara fiber was reduced from 82.24 µm to 53.96 µm, and the homogeneity was enhanced significantly. The relative crystallinity of the okara fibers was reduced from 55.14% to 36.47%. The okara fiber surface charge decreased when the ultrasound power was increased. However, after ultrasound treatment at 4 W/mL (800 W), the okara fiber suspension exhibited the highest viscosity value and a higher swelling capacity, water-holding capacity, and oil-holding capacity. Therefore, the results indicated that the selection of processing conditions for okara fibers is critical and that okara fiber modification using a high ultrasound treatment might improve their use in potential applications.     

Hydrodehalogenation of Aryl Halides through Direct Electrolysis

A catalyst- and metal-free electrochemical hydrodehalogenation of aryl halides is disclosed. Our reaction by a flexible protocol is operated in an undivided cell equipped with an inexpensive graphite rod anode and cathode. Trialkylamines nBu₃N/Et₃N behave as effective reductants and hydrogen atom donors for this electrochemical reductive reaction. Various aryl and heteroaryl bromides worked effectively. The typically less reactive aryl chlorides and fluorides can also be smoothly converted. The utility of our method is demonstrated by detoxification of harmful pesticides and hydrodebromination of a dibrominated biphenyl (analogues of flame-retardants) in gram scale.     

Pd nanoparticles supported on amphiphilic porous organic polymer as an efficient catalyst for aqueous hydrodechlorination and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions

Developing efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalysts for organic reactions in water is important for the sustainable development of chemical industry. In this work, Pd nanoparticles supported on DABCO-functionalized porous organic polymer was successfully prepared through an easy copolymerization and successive immobilization method. Characterization results indicated that the prepared catalyst featured big surface area, hierarchical porous structure, and excellent surface amphiphilicity. We demonstrated the use of this amphiphilic catalyst in two case reactions, i.e. the aqueous hydrodechlorination and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions. Under mild reaction conditions, the catalyst showed high catalytic activities for the two reactions. In addition, the catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for several times. Also, no obvious Pd leaching and aggregation of Pd nanoparticles occurred up during the consecutive reactions.     

Determination,residue and risk assessment of trifloxystrobin,trifloxystrobin acid and tebuconazole in Chinese rice consumption

A simple and rapid analytical method for the detection of trifloxystrobin, trifloxystrobin acid and tebuconazole in soil, brown rice, paddy plants and rice hulls was established and validated by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Acceptable linearity (R² > 0.99), accuracy (average recoveries of 74.3–108.5%) and precision (intra- and inter-day relative standard deviations of 0.9–8.8%) were obtained using the developed determination approach. In the field trial, the half-lives of trifloxystrobin and tebuconazole in paddy plants were 5.7–8.3 days in three locations throughout China, and the terminal residue concentrations of trifloxystrobin and tebuconazole were <100 and 500 μg/kg (maximum residue limits set by China), respectively, at harvest, which indicated that, based on the recommended application procedure, trifloxystrobin and tebuconazole are safe for use on rice. The risk assessment results demonstrated that, owing to risk quotient values of both fungicides being <100%, the potential risk of trifloxystrobin and tebuconazole on rice was acceptable for Chinese consumers. These data could provide supporting information for the proper use and safety evaluation of trifloxystrobin and tebuconazole in rice.     

Comparative absorption kinetics of seven active ingredients of Eucommia ulmoides extracts by intestinal in situ circulatory perfusion in normal and spontaneous hypertensive rats

Eucommia ulmoides Oliv. (E. ulmoides) is a valuable and nourishing medicinal herb in China that has been used in the treatment of hypertension. Given the fact that most traditional Chinese medicine is mainly used to treat disease, investigating the pharmacokinetics of traditional Chinese medicines in the pathological state is more useful than that in the normal state. However, the differences in the absorption kinetics of active ingredients of E. ulmoides extract between pathological and physiological conditions have not been reported. Therefore, in this study, the rat intestinal in situ circulatory perfusion model was used to investigate the differences in absorption kinetics of seven active ingredients of E. ulmoides extract in normal and spontaneously hypertensive rats, namely, genipinic acid, protocatechuic acid, neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, (+)-pinoresinol di-O-β-D -glucopyranoside and (+)-pinoresinol 4′-O-β-D -glucopyranoside. Our results indicate that the pathological state of spontaneous hypertension may change the absorption of active components of E. ulmoides extracts, and these findings may provide a reference for improving the rational use of E. ulmoides in the clinic.     

Performance evaluation of functionalized ordered mesoporous silica for VOCs adsorption by molecular dynamics simulation

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are growing pollutants now that cause the serious environmental pollution and threaten human health. The functionalized ordered mesoporous silica (FOMS) has attracted considerable attention in adsorbing VOCs. In this paper, the molecular dynamics simulation was used to simulate the adsorption performance of FOMS on VOCs (acetone, ethyl acetate and toluene). After simulating different pore sizes (2 nm, 3 nm and 4 nm) adsorption performances of ordered mesoporous silica (OMS) on VOCs, OMS with a pore size of 4 nm was selected to further study the influence of functional groups (vinyl, methyl, and phenyl). The following law was obtained: the saturated adsorption capacities of vinyl-functionalized OMS (V-FOMS) to acetone, ethyl acetate and toluene were 3.045 mmol.g^?1, 2.568 mmol.g^?1 and 1.976 mmol.g^?1 respectively; the saturated adsorption capacities of methyl-functionalized OMS (M-FOMS) to acetone, ethyl acetate and toluene were 2.798 mmol.g^?1, 2.312 mmol.g^?1 and 1.698 mmol.g^?1 respectively; the saturated adsorption capacities of phenyl-functionalized OMS (P-FOMS) to acetone, ethyl acetate and toluene were 2.124 mmol.g^?1, 1.941 mmol.g^?1 and 1.539 mmol.g^?1 respectively. These results show that the adsorption ability of FOMS for different adsorbates follows the sequence of acetone > ethyl acetate > toluene. Furthermore, the interaction between functional groups (vinyl, methyl and phenyl) in FOMS and VOCs was explored. It is found that the interaction between different functional groups and adsorbates is different (interaction energy effect). This interaction energy effect promotes FOMS to better adsorb VOCs. This work would provide fundamental understanding and guidance for the development of novel adsorption materials for the adsorption of VOCs.
