负载型Ni Fe/γ-Al_2O_3双金属催化剂的物理化学性质明显受还原温度的影响,进而影响月桂酸甲酯的加氢活性和产物选择性。金属Ni活性中心主要促进脱羰/脱羧(DOC)反应,Fe的加入能促进月桂酸甲酯发生加氢脱氧反应,促进C_(12)烷烃化合物生成。H_2-TPR、XRD、H_2-TPD和BET结果表明,高的还原温度有利于金属或合金活性中心形成,NiFe双金属催化剂的加氢活性取决于金属Ni、Fe和NiFe合金的含量;NiFe双金属催化剂吸附与活化H_2分子的能力明显受还原温度的影响。在研究的温度范围内,Ni活性中心具有优异的加氢和裂解性能,Fe物种的引入能有效抑制裂解性能。双金属催化剂的加氢活性顺序:NF420NF360NF450NF300,在420℃下经H_2还原制得的NF420催化剂具有最佳的月桂酸甲酯加氢性能,在反应温度为380℃时,月桂酸甲酯加氢转化率和烷烃化合物选择性分别高达93.3%和90.0%。     

气相色谱正构烷烃和直链脂肪酸甲酯两种线性保留指数之间的转换方法

保留指数是气相色谱中用于化合物结构鉴定的重要工具。本研究对基于正构烷烃和直链脂肪酸甲酯的线性保留指数进行线性拟合,发现在所设定的4种不同的升温条件下两种保留指数之间呈现较为固定的线性关系：在弱极性柱（固定液为5%苯基和95%的甲基聚硅氧烷）和极性柱（固定液为聚乙二醇）条件下,正构烷烃保留指数（y）与脂肪酸甲酯保留指数（x）之间的关系分别为y=1.0051x+318.51（r²=1）和y=1.0362x+562.519（r²=1）。采用文献保留指数对所建立的线性关系进行验证,发现通过公式换算得到的保留指数均在其对应文献值的均值加减方差范围内,说明换算公式真实有效。两种保留指数之间关系的建立对于化合物结构鉴定时扩大保留指数搜索范围、减少保留指数测定实验具有重要意义。     

Photofragment translational spectroscopy at 304 nm from C-H symmetric stretch excited CH3I [v 1 = 1]

The 304 nm photodissociation of the C-H symmetric stretch excited CH3I[v1=1,v2=0](v1 denotes the C-H symmetric stretch mode,and v2 denotes the umbrella mode)is studied with our simple photofragment translational spectrometer.An IR laser is used to excite the ground state CH3I[0,0]to the C-H symmetric stretch excited CH3I[1,0].With IR laser OFF and ON,the fractions of photofragments CH3(ν1,ν2)from the 304 nm photodissociation of CH3I[1,0]have been determined through the photofragment translational spectra(PTS)from measuring I and I*and also through the PTS from measuring CH3(0,0)(1,0)(0,1)and(1,1).The experimental results show that the C-H symmetric stretch vibration(v1=1)in parent molecules is about 66%retained in the photofragments in the I channel,but only 24%in the I*channel.The populations of photofragments CH3(0,2)and(0,3)are higher than CH3(0,0)and(0,1),showing strong inverted population both in I and I*channels.     

Counter‐anion role in the formation of two supramolecular complexes: [Ag2(DPP)2](ClO4)2·CH3CN and [Ag2(DPP)2(NO3)2] {DPP is N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine}

The title compounds, bis{μ‐N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine‐κ²N¹:P}disilver bis(perchlorate) acetonitrile monosolvate, [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂](ClO₄)₂·CH₃CN, (1), and bis{μ‐N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine‐κ²N¹:P}bis[(nitrato‐κ²O,O)silver], [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂(NO₃)₂], (2), each contain disilver macrocyclic [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂]²⁺ cations lying about inversion centres. The cations are constructed by two N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine (DPP) ligands linking two Ag⁺ cations in a head‐to‐tail fashion. In (1), the unique Ag⁺ cation has a near‐linear coordination geometry consisting of one pyridine N atom and one P atom from two different DPP ligands. Two ClO₄⁻ anions doubly bridge two metallomacrocycles through Ag...O and N—H...O weak interactions to form a chain extending in the c direction. The half‐occupancy acetonitrile molecule lies with its methyl C atom on a twofold axis and makes a weak N...Ag contact. In (2), there are two independent [Ag(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)]⁺ cations. The nitrate anions weakly chelate to each Ag⁺ cation, leading to each Ag⁺ cation having a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry consisting of one pyridine N atom and one P atom from two different DPP ligands, and two chelating nitrate O atoms. Each dinuclear [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂(NO₃)₂] molecule acts as a four‐node to bridge four adjacent equivalent molecules through N—H...O interactions, forming a two‐dimensional sheet parallel to the bc plane. Each sheet contains dinuclear molecules involving just Ag1 or Ag2 and these two types of sheet are stacked in an alternating fashion. The sheets containing Ag1 all lie near x = , , etc, while those containing Ag2 all lie near x = 0, 1, 2 etc. Thus, the two independent sheets are arranged in an alternating sequence at x = 0, , 1, etc. These two different supramolecular structures result from the different geometric conformations of the templating anions which direct the self‐assembly of the cations and anions.     

Two organophosphorus pesticides: methyl parathion and dicapthon

Structural studies performed in this laboratory of organophosphorus pesticides continue with these related compounds. The –NO₂ groups of methyl parathion (systematic name: dimethyl 4‐nitrophenyl phosphorothioate, C₈H₁₀NO₅PS) and dicapthon (systematic name: 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrophenyl dimethyl phosphorothioate, C₈H₉ClNO₅PS) make dihedral angles of 10.67 (8) and 5.8 (1)°, respectively, with the planes of their attached rings, which accompanies angular distortion at the ring C atoms to which the –NO₂ groups are attached. Similar distortions are observed at the C atom to which the thiophosphate groups are attached. Significant differences in distances and angles around the phenolic O, versus the –OMe groups, explain why it is the site of hydrolysis for these compounds. A comparison of a torsion angle involving the thiophosphate group and phenolic O atom with similar pesticide structures is given and indicates steric influences on that angle.     

A three‐dimensional CdII coordination framework: poly[di‐μ2‐aqua‐{μ2‐1,4‐bis[(1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐yl)methyl]benzene‐κ2N4:N4′}di‐μ3‐terephthalato‐κ3O:O′:O′′‐dicadmium(II)]

The title Cd^II coordination polymer, [Cd(C₁₀H₈O₄)(C₁₂H₁₂N₆)_0.5(H₂O)]_n, has been obtained by the hydrothermal method and studied by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, IR spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. The compound forms a novel three‐dimensional framework with 3,8‐connected three‐dimensional binodal {4.5²}₂{4².5¹⁰.6¹².7.8³} topology. An investigation of its photoluminescence properties shows that the compound exhibits a strong fluorescence emission in the solid state at room temperature.     

Turning Tryptophanase into Odor‐Generating Biosensors

An odor‐based sensor system that exploits the metabolic enzyme tryptophanase (TPase) as the key component is reported. This enzyme is able to convert an odorless substrate like S‐methyl‐L ‐cysteine or L ‐tryptophan into the odorous products methyl mercaptan or indole. To make a biosensor, TPase was biotinylated so that it could be coupled with a molecular recognition element, such as an antibody, to develop an ELISA‐like assay. This method was used for the detection of an antibody present in nM concentrations by the human nose. TPase can also be combined with the enzyme pyridoxal kinase (PKase) for use in a coupled assay to detect adenosine 5′‐triphosphate (ATP). When ATP is present in the low μM concentration range, the coupled enzymatic system generates an odor that is easily detectable by the human nose. Biotinylated TPase can be combined with various biotin‐labeled molecular recognition elements, thereby enabling a broad range of applications for this odor‐based reporting system.     

Experimental validation of an effective carbon number-based approach for the gas chromatography–mass spectrometry quantification of ‘compounds lacking authentic standards or surrogates’

For the quantitative analysis of ‘compounds lacking authentic standards or surrogates’ (CLASS) in environmental media, we previously introduced an effective carbon number (ECN) approach to develop an empirical equation for the prediction of their response factor (RF). In this research, a series of laboratory experiments were carried out to benchmark the reliability of an ECN approach for sorbent tube/thermal desorption/gas chromatography (GC)/mass spectrometry (MS) applications. First, the ECN values were determined using external calibration data from 25 reference volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using two MS dectectors (quadrupole (Q) and time-of-flight (TOF)). Then, a certified standard mixture of 54 VOCs was analyzed by each system as a simulated unknown sample. The analytical bias, assessed in terms of percentage difference (PD) between the certified and ECN-predicted mass values, averaged 19.2 ± 16.1% (TOF-MS) and 28.2 ± 27.6% (Q-MS). The bias using a more simplified carbon number (CN)-based prediction increased considerably, yielding 53.4 ± 53.3% (TOF-MS) and 61.7 ± 81.3% (Q-MS). However, the bias obtained using the ECN-based prediction decreased significantly to yield average PD values of 9.84 ± 7.28% (TOF-MS) and 16.8 ± 8.35% (Q-MS), if the comparison was limited to 26 (out of 54) VOCs with CN ≥ 4 (i.e., 25 aromatics and hexachlorobutadiene).     

Label-free and enzyme-free sensitive fluorescent detection of human immunodeficiency virus deoxyribonucleic acid based on hybridization chain reaction

A label-free and enzyme-free sensitive fluorescent detection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) based on isothermal hybridization chain reaction (HCR) was developed. A G-quadruplex sequence which was incorporated into one of the two hairpin probes was inactive in the absence of target DNA. However, at the presence of target DNA numerous G-quadruplexes along DNA nanowires were self-assembled through HCR. Using N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) as the fluorophore, a “turn-on” fluorescent response would be achieved and detected as low as 0.5 nmol L⁻¹ of HIV DNA. This proposed method was applied to detect HIV DNA in biologic samples with satisfactory results.
