The (010) Surface of the Al45Cr7 Complex Intermetallic Compound: Insights from Density Functional Theory

The Al₄₅Cr₇ compound is considered to exhibit an approximant structure of the icosahedral Al₄Cr phase. Its (010) surface has been investigated in detail using density functional calculations. Surface energy calculations show that the stable terminations result from a cleavage of the crystal between adjacent atomic planes, in agreement with the layered structure of the compound. The integrity of the icosahedral atomic arrangements (icosahedral clusters) found in the bulk structure, is predicted to be removed at the surface. This result is in contrast to what has been previously concluded for the (010) surface of the Al₁₃Fe₄ quasicrystal approximant. Our findings are discussed in relation to the bonding network in the compound, calculated using the Crystal Orbital Hamiltonian Population approach, as possible reasons for such contrasted behavior.     

SO42-/TiO2-ZrO2复合氧化物固体酸催化剂的长叶烯芳构化催化性能

本工作用溶胶-凝胶法制备不同组成的SO42-/TiO2-ZrO2复合氧化物固体酸催化剂,用微型催化反应评价结合X-射线粉末衍射(XRD)、孔结构/BET表面积测试和NH3-程序升温脱附(NH3-TPD)等表征了SO42-/TiO2-ZrO2复合氧化物固体酸催化剂结构、表面酸性和长叶烯芳构化催化性能。复合氧化物固体酸SO42-/TiO2-ZrO2催化剂具有优良的长叶烯芳构化催化性能,并且其芳构化催化性能与催化剂组成和表面酸性密切相关。随催化剂中nZr/(nZr+nTi)增加,催化剂表面中等强度的酸中心量增加,芳构化产物选择性和收率明显增加,在nZr/(nZr+nTi)=0.5时达极大值。随nZr/(nZr+nTi)进一步增加,不仅催化剂表面酸中心量减少、原料转化率明显下降,而且催化剂酸强度增强,导致芳构化产物选择性和收率下降。催化长叶烯芳构化的二元复合氧化物固体酸SO42-/TiO2-ZrO2催化剂适宜的组成为nZr/(nZr+nTi)=0.5。     

Determination of Ciprofloxacin in Human Plasma and Urine by Precolumn Derivatization High Performance Liquid Chromatography with Fluorescence Detection

A sensitive, simple and selective high‐performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the determination of ciprofloxacin in biological fluids. The method is based on the reaction between the drug and 4‐chloro‐7‐nitrobenzofurazan (NBD‐Cl) in borate buffer of pH 9.0 to yield a highly fluorescent derivative that is measured at 535 nm after excitation at 464 nm. The calibration curves were linear over the concentration ranges of 25–3000 and 50–3000 ng·mL^?1 for plasma and urine, respectively. The mean recovery of ciprofloxacin from plasma and urine was 98.37% and 98.40%, respectively. The method was found to be sensitive, precise, accurate, and reproducible. All of the validation parameters were within the acceptance range.

Modification of Hole Transport Layers for Fabricating High Performance Non‐fullerene Polymer Solar Cells

Interfacial engineering is expected to be a feasible strategy to improve the charge transport properties of the hole transport layer (HTL), which is of crucial importance to boost the device performance of organic solar cells (OSCs). In this study, two types of alcohol soluble materials, 2,3,5,6‐tetrafluoro‐7,7,8,8‐tetracyanoquinodimethane (F₄‐TCNQ) and di‐tetrabutylammoniumcis–bis(isothiocyanato)bis (2,2’‐bipyridyl‐4,4’‐dicarboxylato) ruthenium(II) (N719) dye were selected as the dopant for HTL. The doping of F₄‐TCNQ and N719 dye in poly (ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) with and without integrating a graphene quantum‐dots (G‐QDs) layer has been explored in poly[[2,6′‐4‐8‐di(5‐ethylhexylthienyl)benzo[1,2‐b:3,3‐b]dithiophene][3‐fluoro‐2[(2‐ethylhexyl)carbonyl]thieno[3,4‐b]thio‐phenediyl:(2,2′‐((2Z,2′Z)‐(((4,4,9, 9‐tetrakis(4‐hexylphenyl)‐4,9‐dihydro‐s‐indaceno[1,2‐b:5,6‐b′]dithiophene‐2,7‐diyl)bis(4‐((2‐ethylhexyl)oxy)thiophene‐5,2‐diyl))bis(methanylylidene))bis(5,6‐difluoro‐3‐oxo‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐indene‐2,1‐diylidene))dimalononitrile (PTB7‐Th:IEICO‐4F) OSCs. The power conversion efficiency of the non‐fullerene OSCs has been increased to 10.12% from 8.84%. The influence of HTL modification on the nano‐morphological structures and photophysical properties is analyzed based on the comparative studies performed on the control and modified devices. The use of chemical doping and bilayer strategy optimizes the energy level alignment, nanomorphology, hole mobility, and work‐function of HTL, leading to considerable reduction of the leakage current and recombination losses. Our work demonstrates that the doping of HTL and the incorporation of G‐QDs layer to constitute a bilayer HTL is an promising strategy to fabricate high performance non‐fullerene polymer solar cells     

Cucurbit[7]uril⋅Guest Pair with an Attomolar Dissociation Constant

Host?guest complexes between cucurbit[7] (CB[7]) or CB[8] and diamantane diammonium ion guests 3 or 6 were studied by ¹H NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography. ¹H NMR competition experiments revealed that CB[7]? 6 is among the tightest monovalent non‐covalent complexes ever reported in water with K_a=7.2×10¹⁷ M ^?1 in pure D₂O and 1.9×10¹⁵ M ^?1 in D₂O buffered with NaO₂CCD₃ (50 mM ). The crystal structure of CB[7]? 6 allowed us to identify some of the structural features responsible for the ultratight binding, including the distance between the NMe₃⁺ groups of 6 (7.78 Å), which allows it to establish 14 optimal ion‐dipole interactions with CB[7], the complementarity of the convex van der Waals surface contours of 6 with the corresponding concave surfaces of CB[7], desolvation of the C?O portals within the CB[7]? 6 complex, and the co‐linearity of the C₇ axis of CB[7] with the N⁺???N⁺ line in 6 . This work further blurs the lines of distinction between natural and synthetic receptors.     

Liquid extraction surface analysis in-line coupled with capillary electrophoresis for direct analysis of a solid surface sample

A surface-sampling technique of liquid extraction surface analysis (LESA) was in-line coupled with capillary electrophoresis (CE) to expand the specimen types for CE to solid surfaces. The new direct surface analysis method of LESA–CE was applied to the determination of organophosphorus pesticides, including glufosinate-ammonium, aminomethylphosphonic acid, and glyphosate on the external surface of a fruit such as apple. Without any sample pretreatment, the analytes sprayed on the surface of a half apple were directly extracted into a liquid microjunction formed by dispensing the extractant from the inlet tip of a separation capillary. After extraction, the analytes were derivatized in-capillary with a fluorophore 4-fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole and analyzed with CE-laser induced fluorescence (LIF). The limits of detection for glufosinate-ammonium, aminomethylphosphonic acid, and glyphosate were 2.5, 1, and 10 ppb, respectively, which are at least 20 times lower than the tolerance limits established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Thus, we demonstrated that LESA–CE is a quite sensitive and convenient method to determine analytes on a solid surface avoiding the dilution from sample pretreatment procedures including homogenization of a bulk sample.     

Synthesis,characterization, thermal stability and antibacterial activity of coumarin based methacrylate copolymers

Monomer of 7-methacryloyloxy-4-methylcoumarin(MAOMC) was synthesized and characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Copolymers of MAOMC with butoxyethylmethacrylate(BOEMA) at different feed compositions were prepared by free radical solution polymerization at(70 ± 1) °C in ethylmethylketone(EMK) using benzyl peroxide(BPO) as an initiator. The copolymers were characterized by FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) of the copolymers showed moderate thermal stability and higher Tg values. Gel permeation chromatography(GPC) was used to find out the molecular weights of the different copolymers. Antibacterial activities of the copolymers were also investigated against the selected pathogenic bacteria's. The antibacterial activity of the copolymer increases as the MAOMC content increases in the copolymer. This shows that coumarin moiety plays a very important role in the antibacterial activity.
