Synthesis and optical properties of new chalcones containing 4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]phenyl fragment

New chalcones with 4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino] phenyl fragment were obtained from 4-[bis(2-acetoxyethyl) amino]- benzaldehyde by the Claisen–Schmidt reaction. From their UV-VIS absorption and emission spectra, optical band gap values were calculated based on the Stokes shifts as well as the molar absorption coefficients and fluorescence quantum yields were estimated. The dependence of the absorption and emission maxima on solvent polarity and pH was evaluated.     

Assessment of a high‐order MUSCL method for rotor flows

This work presents the implementation of a high‐order, finite‐volume scheme suitable for rotor flows. The formulation is based on the variable extrapolation MUSCL‐scheme, where high‐order spatial accuracy (up to fourth‐order) is achieved using correction terms obtained through successive differentiation. A variety of results are presented, including 2‐ and 3‐dimensional test cases. Results with the proposed scheme, showed better wake and higher resolution of vortical structures compared with the standard MUSCL, even when coarse meshes were employed. The method was also demonstrated for 3‐dimensional unsteady flows using overset and moving grids for the UH‐60A rotor in forward flight and the Enhanced Rotorcraft Innovative Concept Achievement tiltrotor in aeroplane mode. For medium grids, the present method adds reasonable CPU and memory overheads and offers good accuracy on relatively coarse grids.

Analytical and approximate solutions of(2+1)-dimensional time-fractional Burgers-Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

In this paper, we applied the sub-equation method to obtain a new exact solution set for the extended version of the time-fractional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, namely BurgersKadomtsev-Petviashvili equation(Burgers-K-P) that arises in shallow water waves.Furthermore, using the residual power series method(RPSM), approximate solutions of the equation were obtained with the help of the Mathematica symbolic computation package. We also presented a few graphical illustrations for some surfaces. The fractional derivatives were considered in the conformable sense. All of the obtained solutions were replaced back in the governing equation to check and ensure the reliability of the method. The numerical outcomes confirmed that both methods are simple, robust and effective to achieve exact and approximate solutions of nonlinear fractional differential equations.     

考虑地表反射类型的气溶胶散射偏振特性

采用逐次阶散射法求解矢量辐射传输方程来研究气溶胶在不同地表反射模型下的散射偏振特性.首先,选取单一地表反射模型和耦合地表反射模型两种地表反射模型.然后,根据地表反射模型计算得到相应的地表反射率,进而采用逐次阶散射法对矢量辐射传输方程进行求解,得到散射光的Stokes矢量.最后,由Stokes矢量计算得出散射光的偏振度.仿真结果表明,两种地表反射模型下气溶胶单次散射的散射辐射强度和线偏振度均相等;耦合地表反射模型的总散射辐射强度和线偏振度总是大于单一地表反射模型;单一地表反射模型的气溶胶单次散射相对总散射的贡献总是大于耦合地表反射模型.研究结果对气溶胶光学特性的反演具有一定意义.

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitors from a marine-derived fungal strain aspergillus sp. SF-5929

Abstract

In the course of our continuing investigation of bioactive secondary metabolites from marine-derived fungal strains, a racemate of a novel diphenolic derivative named (±)-tylopilusin D (1) along with ten previously known secondary metabolites (2–11) were isolated from a marine-derived fungal strain Aspergillus sp. SF-5929. Their structures were elucidated mainly by analysis of NMR and MS data. In addition, the inhibitory effects of the isolated compounds against protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) activity were evaluated, and compounds 1, 2, and 5–7 inhibited PTP1B activity with IC₅₀ values ranging from 3.3 to 8.1?µM. Kinetics studies suggested that compounds 1, 2, and 5 had noncompetitive inhibitory effects against PTP1B.     

Tunable magnetism through edge functionalization in zigzag green phosphorene nanoribbons

Ab initio density-functional theory calculations with spin polarization are performed to explore magnetic properties in zigzag green phosphorene nanoribbons (ZGPNRs) with no passivation or edge-saturated by H, OH and O chemical species. It is found that antiferromagnetic order at intra-edges is the most energetically favorable for the pristine and oxygen passivated ribbons, while H- or OH-saturated ZGPNRs show nonmagnetic order. It indicates that edge states arising from the unsaturated bonds are vital for the formation of the magnetic moment in the ZGPNRs. The magnitude of the edge magnetism in the pristine and O-saturated ZGPNRs is comparable to that in zigzag black phosphorene nanoribbons. Electronic band structures, spin densities and spd-orbital projected density of states for the studied pristine and O-passivated ZGPNRs are further analyzed to study their electronic properties. The magnetic and electronic properties discovered in the ZGPNRs may suggest potential applications in future spintronics and electronics.
