Synthesis of a Polymer-bound Sensitizer and its Application in the Photoisomerization of trans-Vitamin D_3 to cis-Vitamin D_3

The photochemistry of the vitamin D family and their precursors has been the subject of extensive studies for many years1-4. Most of the studies focus on the photoisomer- ization of 7-dehydrocholesterol and that of tachysterol to previtamin D3, which is of commercial importance in the synthesis of vitamin D34, 5. Recently the cis/trans isomerization of vitamin D analogs (Scheme 1) draws attention because of its importance in the synthesis of hydroxylated vitamin D metabolites6. However, o…     

Electrochemical oxidation behavior of hydroxypivalaldehyde in the ionic liquids

The similar electrochemical oxidation behaviors of hydroxypivalaldehyde in ionic liquids （ILs） medium, C4MIMPF6, C4MIMBF4 and CsMIMPF6, are investigated using classic electrochemical methods, respectively. Only the product, hydroxypivalic acid is detected by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）. It can be conferred that the electrochemical oxidation of hydroxypivalaldehyde consists of two successive one-electron irreversible reactions at glass carbon （GC） electrode and the possible reaction mechanism in the ILs is proposed firstly. The diffusion coefficients of hydroxypivalaldehyde are obtained according to the electrochemical characteristics of hydroxypivalaldehyde in C4MIMPF6, C4MIMBF4 and CsMIMPF6.     

Hydrogen peroxide biosensor based on electrodeposition of zinc oxide nanoflowers onto carbon nanotubes film electrode

A new amperometric biosensor for hydrogen peroxide was developed based on adsorption of horseradish peroxidase at the glassy carbon electrode modified with zinc oxide nanoflowers produced by electrodeposition onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes （MWNTs） film. The morphology of the MWNTs/nano-ZnO electrode has been investigated by scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, and the electrochemical performance of the electrode has also been studied by amperometric method. The resulting electrode offered an excellent detection for hydrogen peroxide at -0.11 V with a linear response range of 9.9×10^-7 to 2.9×10^-3 mol/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.991, and response time 〈5 s. The biosensor displays rapid response and expanded linear response range, and excellent stability.

Synthesis,X-Ray Structure and Characterization of a Triruthenium Cluster Complex Ru_3~Ⅲ(μ_3-O)(μ-CH_3COO)_6(py)_2Cl with Four Steps One-electron Redox Processes

Great attention is currently paid to the synthesis of polynuclear transition metal complexes as well as their photochemical, photophysical, and electrochemical properties. The design of multicomponent systems capable of performing useful light- and/or redox-induced function is of special interest1. The oxo-centered carboxylate-bridge trinuclear ruthenium clusters have been investigated extensively during recent decades because they have remarkable electron-transfer properties, intense visibl…

Evaluation of Transient Absorption Spectra of N, N, N, N- Tetra - ( p -methylphenyl ) - 4, 4- diamino - 1, 1- diphenyl Ether ( TPDAE ) for Electron Transfer from TPDAE to Fullerenes ( C_(60) / C_(70) ) by Laser Flash Photolysis

Fullerenes C60 and C70 have high electron affinity ( 2.6 - 2.8 ev ) and readily form anions on electronchemical reduction1, which were famous as electron acceptor in photo-excitation because of symmetrical shape, large size, and properties of its p - electron system2. After observation of molecular ferromagnetism3 in the tetrakis (dimethylamino ) ethylene salt of C60 as well as the occurrence of ultra-fast photoinduced electron transfer within the dimethyl aniline - C60 complex4, prompted us…     

Benzylation of Aromatic Compounds with Benzyl Chloride Catalyzed by Nafion/SiO_2 Nanocomposite Catalyst

Diphenylmethane and substituted diphenylmethane are important compounds forsynthesis chemistry as well as industrial chemistry. These compounds are easilysynthesized by the benzylation of aromatic compounds with benzyl chloride or benzylalcohol catalyzed by homogeneous acid catalysts, such as AlCl3, FeCl3, H2SO4, HF andBF3. However, these catalytic systems are highly corrosive, and usually proceed withlow selectivity. In addition, they are less satisfactory from the environmen…
