钾改性氧化铝基羰基硫水解催化剂及其失活机理

天然气、油田伴生气、高炉煤气等化工生产过程中伴生COS气体,不仅会腐蚀管道和毒害催化剂,还会严重污染环境并危害人类健康。COS催化水解反应可在温和条件下高效的将COS脱除,是最具应用前景的COS脱除技术之一。碱金属元素因其具有独特的电子供体性质、表面碱性和静电吸附等特性,常被用作助催化剂以提高Al₂O₃的COS催化水解性能。近年来,以钾为助剂改性的Al₂O₃催化剂(K₂CO₃/Al₂O₃)在COS催化水解反应中得到广泛的应用,但由于负载在Al₂O₃上的K物种的组成复杂,目前研究者对K₂CO₃/Al₂O₃催化剂上COS水解机理的理解仍存在一定的困惑和争议。本论文通过湿法浸渍法合成出一系列钾盐和钠盐改性的Al₂O₃催化剂,并利用各类先进的表征技术对这些催化剂进行分析。活性测试表明,以K₂CO₃、K₂C₂O₄、NaHCO₃、Na₂CO₃和NaC₂O₄改性Al₂O₃催化剂均有助于COS的水解。其中K₂CO₃/Al₂O₃拥有最佳的COS水解性能,连续运行20 h后其COS转化率仍高于~93%,远远优于未改性的Al₂O₃ (~58%)。我们利用原位红外光谱和X射线光电子能谱探明了反应过程中催化剂的化学结构特征,阐明了H₂O分子在K₂CO₃/Al₂O₃上的水解作用机制。原位红外表明COS在K₂CO₃/Al₂O₃上的水解过程中形成了硫代碳酸氢盐中间产物。X射线光电子能谱表征证明催化剂的失活主要是因为催化剂表面积累了硫酸盐和单质硫。此外,我们还研究了水蒸气含量对COS水解性能的影响,研究发现,由于H₂O和COS分子在催化剂表面存在竞争吸附,过量的H₂O会引起催化活性的下降。上述研究表明,K₂CO₃/Al₂O₃催化剂上COS水解性能的提高主要是形成了HO-Al-O-K界面活性位。更为重要的是,所制备的催化剂都是在模拟工业工况条件下进行的,这为后续的工业应用提供了宝贵理论指导。本工作为理解助剂钾在Al₂O₃催化剂上COS水解活性的增强提供了新的见解,这为未来设计稳定高效的COS水解催化剂打开了新的发展方向。     

脱氢枞酸酯键合硅胶色谱固定相的制备及应用

将天然可再生资源脱氢枞酸与甲基丙烯酸缩水甘油酯反应制得脱氢枞酸酯（DAGME）,并将其通过“巯-烯”点击反应接枝到巯基功能化硅胶表面,制备得到一种疏水型脱氢枞酸酯键合硅胶色谱固定相（SilDAGME）。利用傅里叶变换红外光谱（FT-IR）、热失重分析（TGA）和元素分析（EA）对固定相进行表征,结果表明Sil-DAGME固定相成功制备。以烷基苯、Tanaka测试混合物、多环芳烃、酚类化合物和黄酮类化合物作为分离对象对Sil-DAGME的分离性能及保留机制进行评价。研究发现Sil-DAGME除疏水作用保留机制外,还具有氢键和π-π相互作用。基于多种保留机制的协同作用,Sil-DAGME对上述分析物均表现出良好的分离性能。此外,Sil-DAGME不仅具有良好的重现性（RSD为0.050%～0.19%,n=10）、稳定性（RSD为0.25%～1.0%,n=7）和可重复制备性（RSD为0.78%～2.1%,n=3）,还对红豆杉树皮粗提物表现出良好的分离效果。将脱氢枞酸用于制备新型的色谱填料不仅为紫杉醇的分离和检测提供了一种新途径,也为以天然产物松香作为功能配体设计和制备新型固定相提供了参考。     

Investigating the Mechanism by Which Intragap States Tailor Light Emission: Case of Copper Deficient and Zn Doped Cu−In−Se Quantum Dots**

The large structural tolerance of I–III–VI group quantum dots (QDs) to off-stoichiometry allows their photoluminescence properties to be adjusted via doping, thereby enabling application in different fields. However, the photophysical processes underlying their photoluminescence mechanism remain significantly unknown. In particular, the transition channels of CuInSe₂ QDs, which are altered by intrinsic and extrinsic intragap states, remain poorly reported. Herein, we investigated the photophysical processes associated with intragap states via electrochemical and optical techniques by using copper deficient Cu−In−Se QDs as well as Zn doped Cu−In−Se QDs. When the Cu/In molar ratios of Cu−In−Se QDs increased from 0.3 : 1 to 0.9 : 1, the photoluminescence spectra displayed a red-shift from 700 nm to 1050 nm. Although there was a blue-shift after the introduction of Zn²⁺ dopants in Cu−In−Se QDs, a significant red-shift occurred (from 660 nm to 760 nm) when the Zn/Cu molar ratios decreased from 0.7 : 0.3 to 0.3 : 0.7. The Gaussian deconvolution results of the photoluminescence spectra and the band gap derived from absorption spectra by fitting supported the fact that the optical transition channels are dependent on the Cu/In and Zn/Cu molar ratios. After the introduction of the Zn²⁺ ions, the alloyed-resultant blue-shift of the emission spectra was observed, primarily due to the enlarged band gap; however, the radiative recombination of prominent intrinsic intragap states is still observed; and only a small proportion of the band-edge exciton undergoes recombination for the sample with low Zn content. Cyclic voltammetry measurements revealed well-defined extrinsic Zn_Cu intragap states (Zn substitution on Cu sites) and intrinsic Cu^x (x= 1+/2+) states in the band gap. The results presented here provide a better understanding of the varying effects of dopant on photoluminescence in terms of I–III–VI group QDs.     

Protonation and Proton‐Coupled Electron Transfer at S‐Ligated [4Fe‐4S] Clusters

Biological [Fe‐S] clusters are increasingly recognized to undergo proton‐coupled electron transfer (PCET), but the site of protonation, mechanism, and role for PCET remains largely unknown. Here we explore this reactivity with synthetic model clusters. Protonation of the arylthiolate‐ligated [4Fe‐4S] cluster [Fe₄S₄(SAr)₄]^2? ( 1 , SAr=S‐2,4‐6‐(iPr)₃C₆H₂) leads to thiol dissociation, reversibly forming [Fe₄S₄(SAr)₃L]^1? ( 2 ) and ArSH (L=solvent, and/or conjugate base). Solutions of 2 +ArSH react with the nitroxyl radical TEMPO to give [Fe₄S₄(SAr)₄]^1? ( 1_ox ) and TEMPOH. This reaction involves PCET coupled to thiolate association and may proceed via the unobserved protonated cluster [Fe₄S₄(SAr)₃(HSAr)]^1? ( 1‐H ). Similar reactions with this and related clusters proceed comparably. An understanding of the PCET thermochemistry of this cluster system has been developed, encompassing three different redox levels and two protonation states.     

Spectroscopic and Kinetic Evidence for the Crucial Role of Compound 0 in the P450cam‐Catalyzed Hydroxylation of Camphor by Hydrogen Peroxide

The hydroperoxo iron(III) intermediate P450_camFe^III–OOH, being the true Compound 0 (Cpd 0) involved in the natural catalytic cycle of P450_cam, could be transiently observed in the peroxo‐shunt oxidation of the substrate‐free enzyme by hydrogen peroxide under mild basic conditions and low temperature. The prolonged lifetime of Cpd 0 enabled us to kinetically examine the formation and reactivity of P450_camFe^III–OOH species as a function of varying reaction conditions, such as pH, and concentration of H₂O₂, camphor, and potassium ions. The mechanism of hydrogen peroxide binding to the substrate‐free form of P450_cam differs completely from that observed for other heme proteins possessing the distal histidine as a general acid–base catalyst and is mainly governed by the ability of H₂O₂ to undergo deprotonation at the hydroxo ligand coordinated to the iron(III) center under conditions of pH≥p${K{{{\rm P450}\hfill \atop {\rm a}\hfill}}}$ . Notably, no spectroscopic evidence for the formation of either Cpd I or Cpd II as products of heterolytic or homolytic O?O bond cleavage, respectively, in Cpd 0 could be observed under the selected reaction conditions. The kinetic data obtained from the reactivity studies involving (1R)‐camphor, provide, for the first time, experimental evidence for the catalytic activity of the P450Fe^III–OOH intermediate in the oxidation of the natural substrate of P450_cam.     

Selective Probing of Gaseous Ammonia Using Red‐Emitting Carbon Dots Based on an Interfacial Response Mechanism

Solid‐state fluorescence sensing is one of the most appealing detection techniques because of its simplicity and convenience in practical operation. Herein, we report the development of a red‐emitting carbon dots (RCDs)‐based material as a solid‐state fluorescence sensor for the selective probing of gaseous ammonia. The RCDs were prepared by a low‐cost, one‐step carbonization method using sugar cane bagasse as the carbon precursor. The pristine RCDs were then directly coated on polyvinylidene fluoride membrane to produce a new fluorescence sensor capable of selectively distinguishing toxic gaseous ammonia from other analyte vapors through sensitive fluorescence quenching with a low detection limit. More importantly, the interfacial response mechanism occurring on the surface of the RCDs has been studied by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, and Raman measurements. The results indicate that fluorescence quenching in the RCDs might result from ammonia‐induced Michael addition through insertion of N into the C?C group and deprotonation of the carboxyl group. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that provides clear insight into the mechanism of surface chemistry on CDs in the solid state.     

Reversing the Stereoselectivity of a Palladium‐Catalyzed O‐Glycosylation through an Inner‐Sphere or Outer‐Sphere Pathway

An efficient and concise method for the construction of various O‐glycosidic bonds by a palladium‐catalyzed reaction with a 3‐O‐picoloyl glucal has been developed. The stereochemistry of the anomeric center derives from either an inner‐sphere or outer‐sphere pathway. Harder nucleophiles, such as aliphatic alcohols and sodium phenoxides give β‐products, and α products result from using softer nucleophiles, such as phenol.     

Rh（III）催化的N-甲氧基苯甲酰胺系列物选择性C-H氰基化反应

采用了最近热门的Rh(III)催化C?H键活化方法,以N-甲氧基苯甲酰胺系列物为反应底物, N-氰基-N-苯基对甲苯磺酰胺(NCTS)为氰基化试剂,高效合成了含氰基官能团产物。结果表明,该反应在碳酸银存在下,使用二氧六环作为反应溶剂,于80°C反应8h生成的邻位氰基取代的N-甲氧基苯甲酰胺的产率较高。进一步研究表明,该反应具有好的区域选择性和底物/官能团适应性。一系列机理实验研究表明,该反应可能采用了一个内部的亲电取代机制及使用了C?H键切割步骤作为关键限速步骤。考虑到该反应产物包含有价值的结构单元-N-甲氧基甲酰胺和氰基取代基,因而有望用于现代有机合成中。     

H-SAPO-18催化甲醇制烯烃反应的芳烃烃池机理：基于范德华校正的密度泛函理论研究

由于可以从非石油资源如煤、天然气、生物质等出发制备低碳烯烃,分子筛催化甲醇制烯烃(MTO)反应在学术界和工业界引起了广泛的研究兴趣. H-SAPO-34是目前表现优异性能的分子筛催化剂之一,其双烯(乙烯+丙烯)的选择性在80%以上,已经实现了工业化应用.为了提升MTO反应的选择性,以及调控乙烯丙烯的选择性之比,非常有必要从反应机理出发来优化设计新的催化剂.然而,由于MTO催化反应产物复杂多样,对MTO反应机理的认识还存在很大的争议.目前基本能够接受的是MTO催化反应沿着烃池机理进行.在此反应机理中,无机分子筛和有机烃池活性中心形成共催化剂,甲醇进攻有机活性中心生成烷基链,此烷基链断裂得到烯烃产物.目前提出的烃池活性中心主要包括多甲基苯和烯烃自身,它们分别沿着各自的循环反应网络(芳烃循环和烯烃循环)生成烯烃产物.有文献指出在H-ZSM-5分子筛中芳烃循环主要生成乙烯,而烯烃循环主要生成丙烯等产物.因此,系统研究分子筛结构对两条循环网络相对贡献程度的影响规律,从而阐述分子筛结构和MTO催化性能之间的关系具有重要的意义. H-SAPO-18是一类结构上与H-SAPO-34相类似的分子筛,其笼由八元环孔道互联.实验研究指出,其也具有优异的MTO催化性能.在本工作中,我们利用包含范德华相互作用校正的交换相关泛函(BEEF-vdW),系统研究了H-SAPO-18分子筛中的芳烃循环反应机理.所有计算用VASP程序包完成, H-SAPO-18用48T周期性结构模型表示.利用静态吸附和相互转化的自由能变化情况,我们首先确认了反应条件下H-SAPO-18中最稳定的多甲基苯的结构.计算结果指出,1,2,4,5-四甲基苯的吸附能最强,而六甲基苯是主要存在的多甲基苯组分.多甲基苯在分子筛孔道内的稳定性主要由两个相反的作用共同影响：范德华相互作用引起的吸引,以及分子筛孔道结构引起的排斥.在芳烃循环路线中,乙基侧链的增长是反应的关键基元步.吉布斯自由能分析指出芳烃循环路线中,在反应温度673 K下H-SAPO-18中的六甲基苯并不比五甲基苯,四甲基苯的活性高,这与H-SAPO-34分子筛中的结果相一致. H-SAPO-18中的四甲基苯、五甲基苯和六甲基苯的总吉布斯自由能垒分别是208,215,239 kJ/mol.六甲基苯循环路线所表现出的高反应能垒的一个原因,是由于分子筛几何限域效应引起的熵增加所致.通过与烯烃循环路线的动力学进行比较,本文芳烃循环路线动力学的工作可以为MTO催化反应机理的研究提供一些启示.
