Stereospecific radical polymerization of optically active (S)-N-(2-hydroxy-1-phenylethyl) methacrylamide catalyzed by Lewis acids

The effects of Lewis acids, namely, rare earth metal trifluoromethanesulfonates, on the radical polymerization of (S)-N-(2-hydroxy-1-phenylethyl) methacrylamide were examined under various conditions. In the absence of Lewis acids, syndiotactic-rich polymers (r = 84%) were obtained, whereas in the presence of a catalytic amount of Lewis acids, the polymerization proceeded in an isotactic-specific manner (m up to 64%). Polymerization solvents strongly influenced the effect of the Lewis acids. The polymerization in n-butyl alcohol showed the highest isotactic selectivity, whereas the polymerization in DMSO showed no isotacticity-enhancing effect. Further increases in the Lewis acid concentration and the polymerization temperature did not produce clear effects on the tacticity of the polymers. The interaction between the monomer and Lewis acids was investigated, and the plausible mechanism of stereocontrol in the radical polymerization of (S)-HPEMA was analyzed based on the Lewis acid-monomer interaction.     

主动控制压电旋转悬臂梁的参数振动稳定性分析

在工程实际中旋转机械由于制造和加工误差,装配的不均匀性等原因,往往会脉动运行,这将使得机械系统发生参数振动. 当脉动参数满足一定关系时,这种参数振动将会失稳,进而影响机械结构的正常运转. 本文针对这一问题,引入压电材料对 脉动旋转悬臂梁系统的振动进行控制,研究主动控制悬臂梁系统的参数振动优化设计问题,采用 Hamilton 变分原理与一阶 Galerkin 离散相结合的方法,建立了受速度反馈传感器主动控制的压电旋转悬臂梁的一阶近似线性控制方程. 运用多尺度方法,得到了压电旋转悬臂梁系统在发生1/2亚谐波参数共振时稳定性边界的控制方程,并利用直接分析方法验证了解析摄动解的正确性. 将摄动解中临界阻尼比和轮毂角速度脉动幅值的无量纲参数作为评价系统稳定性能的指标. 通过数值算例,分析了轮毂半径、轮毂角速度平均值和脉动幅值、梁长以及速度传感器的反馈增益系数对系统稳定性区域的影响. 研究结果表明,梁长、轮毂半径、脉动幅值会降低系统稳定性,反馈增益系数可以提高系统稳定性,而轮毂角速度平均值与系统稳定性之间有非单调的关系. 为进一步设计压电旋转机械结构提供了理论依据.      

Infrared Responsive Choline Phosphate Lipids for Synergistic Cancer Therapy

Choline phosphate lipids have been designed and developed as new-generation zwitterionic nanocarriers with excellent biocompatibility and bioorthogonality to provide a more programmable performance for cancer therapy. However, there is a lack of spatiotemporal and reversible control for drug release at target tumor cells, which can lead to severe adverse effects to normal tissue and discounted treatment outcome. Here, light-inducible Lip-cRGDfk/ICG/Dox liposomes were developed for synergistic cancer therapy. ICG can effectively convert light energy into selective heating in a local environment upon laser irradiation, thus inducing thermal ablation of tumor cells, and further reversibly trigger the spatiotemporal release of anticancer drugs (Dox) at tumor cells due to the conformation transformation of CP lipids to synergistically kill tumor cells. That Lip-cRGDfk/ICG/Dox exhibited a significant improvement for breast cancer therapy in vitro and in vivo is also demonstrated, thus it can serve as an efficient platform to noninvasively and spatiotemporally control the activation of cytotoxicity at tumor cells for precision cancer therapy.     

Dispersion Stability and Particle Characterization by Sedimentation Kinetics in a Centrifugal Field

ABSTRACT

The analysis of sedimentation or flotation (creaming) by detecting the transmission profile over the entire sample height in an analytical centrifuge (using a Stability Analyzer) is described and illustrated for a diverse range of practical dispersions and emulsions. It is also illustrated how to use extrapolated results to estimate dispersion shelf life stability for samples in a gravitational field. Formulation optimization, such as choosing appropriate surfactant levels, is also shown to be a practical application of such methods.     

Nanoporous silicon flakes as anode active material for lithium-ion batteries

Nanoporous-silicon (np-Si) flakes were prepared using a combination of an electrochemical etching process and an ultra-sonication treatment and the electrochemical properties were studied as an anode active material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). This fabrication method is a simple, reproducible, and cost effective way to make high-performance Si-based anode active materials in LIBs. The anode based on np-Si flakes exhibited a higher performances (lower capacity fade rate, stability and excellent rate capability at high C-rate) than the anode based on Si nanowires. The excellent performance of the np-Si flake anode was attributed to the hollowness (nanoporous structure) of the anode active material, which allowed it to accommodate a large volume change during cycling.     

Organic Positive Materials for Magnesium Batteries: A Review

Magnesium batteries, like lithium-ion batteries, with higher abundance and similar efficiency, have drawn great interest for large-scale applications such as electric vehicles, grid energy storage and many more. On the other hand, the use of organic electrode materials allows high energy-performance, metal-free, environmentally friendly, versatile, lightweight, and economically efficient magnesium storage devices. In particular, the structural diversity and the simple activity of organic molecules make redox properties, and hence battery efficiency, easy to monitor. While organic magnesium batteries still in their infancy, this field becomes more and more promising because significant results were reported. To summarize the achievements in studies on organic cathodes for magnesium systems, their synthesis is discussed, combined with electrode design to provide the basis for controlling the electrochemical properties. Moreover, the techniques to synthesize organic materials with high-yield are mentioned. Finally, potential problems and prospects are explored to further improve organic cathodes.     

Fine Tunable,Redox Active Octapalladium Chains Supported by Linear Tetraphosphines,Leading to Dynamically 1D Self-Assembled Coordination Polymers

A series of the octapalladium chains supported by meso-Ph₂PCH₂P(Ph)CH₂P(Ph)CH₂PPh₂ (meso-dpmppm) ligands, [Pd₈(meso-dpmppm)₄(L)₂](BF₄)₄ (L=none ( 1 ), solvents: CH₃CN ( 2 a ), dmf ( 2 b ), dmso ( 2 c ), RN≡C: R=Xyl ( 3 a ), Mes ( 3 b ), Dip ( 3 c ), ^tBu ( 3 d ), Cy ( 3 e ), CH₃(CH₂)₇ ( 3 f ), CH₃(CH₂)₁₁ ( 3 g ), CH₃(CH₂)₁₇ ( 3 h )) and [Pd₈(meso-dpmppm)₄(X)₂](BF₄)₂ (X=Cl ( 4 a ), N₃ ( 4 b ), CN ( 4 c ), SCN ( 4 d )), were synthesized by using 2 a as a stable good precursor, and characterized by spectroscopic (IR, ¹H and ³¹P NMR, UV-vis-NIR, ESI-MS) measurements and X-ray crystallographic analyses (for 1 , 2 a , b , 3 a , b , e , f , 4 a – d ). On the basis of DFT calculations on the X-ray determined structure of 2 b ( [2b-Pd₈]⁴⁺ ) and the optimized models [Pd₈(meso-Ph₂PCH₂P(H)CH₂P(H)CH₂PH₂)₄(CH₃CN)₂]⁴⁺ ( [Pd₈Ph₈]⁴⁺ ) and [Pd₈(meso-H₂PCH₂P(H)CH₂P(H)CH₂PH₂)₄(CH₃CN)₂]⁴⁺ ( [Pd₈H₈]⁴⁺ ), with and without empirically calculating dispersion force stabilization energy (B3LYP-D3, B3LYP), the formation energy between the two Pd₄ fragments is assumed to involve mainly noncovalent interactions (ca. −70 kcal/mol) with four sets of interligand C−H/π interactions and Pd⋅⋅⋅Pd metallophilic one, while electron shared covalent interactions are almost canceled out within the Pd₈ chain. All the compounds isolated are stable in solution and exhibit characteristic absorption at ∼900 nm, which is assignable to a spin allowed HOMO to LUMO transition, and shows temperature dependent intensity change with variable absorption coefficients presumably due to coupling with some thermal vibrations. The structures and electronic states of the Pd₈ chains are found finely tunable by varying the terminal capping ligands. In particular, theoretical calculations elucidated that the HOMO-LUMO energy gap is systematically related to the central Pd−Pd distance (2.7319(6)–2.7575(6) Å) by two ways with neutral ligands L ( 1 , 2 , 3 ) and with anionic ligands X ( 4 ), which are reflected on the NIR absorption energy of 867–954 nm. The isocyanide terminated Pd₈ complexes ( 3 ) further reacted with excess of RNC (6 eq) to afford the Pd₄ complexes, [Pd₄(meso-dpmppm)₂(RNC)₂](BF₄)₂ ( 13 ), and the cyclic voltammograms of 2 a (L=CH₃CN), 3 , and 13 (R=Xyl, Mes, ^tBu, Cy) demonstrated wide range redox behaviors from 2{Pd₄}⁴⁺ to 2{Pd₄}⁰ through 2{Pd₄}²⁺↔{Pd₈}⁴⁺, {Pd₈}³⁺, and {Pd₈}²⁺ strings. The oxidized complexes, [Pd₄(meso-dpmppm)₂(RNC)₃](BF₄)₄ ( 16 ), were characterized by X-ray analyses, and the two-electron reduced chain of [Pd₈(meso-dpmppm)₄](BF₄)₂ ( 7 ) was analyzed by spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques and DFT calculations. Reactions of 2 a with 1 equiv. of aromatic linear bisisocyanide (BI) in CH₂Cl₂ deposited insoluble coordination polymers, {[Pd₈(meso-dpmppm)₄(BI)](BF₄)₄}_n ( 5 ), and interestingly, they were soluble in acetonitrile, ³¹P{¹H} and ¹H DOSY NMR spectra as well as SAXS curves suggesting that the coordination polymers may exist in acetonitrile as dynamically 1D self-assembled coordination polymers comprising ca. 50 units of the Pd₈ rod averaged within the timescale.
