非血红素配合物[FeⅣ(O)(TMC)(NCMe)]2+与[FeⅣ(O)(TMCS)]+的几何结构、电子结构、成键性和反应活性比较

采用密度泛函理论计算了[FeⅣ(O)(TMC)(NCMe)]2+ 和[FeⅣ(O)(TMCS)]+的电子结构、反应活性和Fe—O的成键性. 几何构型的优化采用非限制性的B3LYP混合密度泛函方法, 重原子Fe的优化采用是LanL2dZ基组, C, H, O, N和S的优化采用TZV基组, 理论计算结果与实验结果相符. 通过对轨道系数和键级的分析发现, TMC配位基对Fe—O的π键几乎没有影响. 由于竖直方向的硫甲基配位基的轨道与Fe的3d轨道具有较强的重迭, 而乙腈配位基作为轴向配体时, 这种重迭则小得多, 导致了两种配合物在电子结构和反应活性上存在一定的差别.     

The study of the lipophilicity of alpha-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-gamma-phthalimidobutyramides using chromatographic and computational methods

The lipophilicity of the series of alpha-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-gamma-phthalimido-butyramides (1-8) has been investigated. Several methods, like reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography using reversed-phase RP18 and IAM.DD2 columns, were applied to determine RMO, log k0 and log k(0IAM) factors. The RP-TLC investigations were performed in mixtures of acetone-water and acetonitrile-water. For RP-HPLC method mixtures of acetonitrile, water and 0.01% TFA were used as the mobile phases while for IAM.DD2 investigations mixtures of acetonitrile and water were applied. The partition coefficients of compounds (1-8) were also calculated with the Pallas and CAChe programs. All the obtained data, both from experimental methods and computational calculations, were compared and a suitable conclusion was reached.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria for ternary mixtures of (ethylene glycol + toluene + n-octane)

Tie-line data for ternary systems of (ethylene glycol + toluene + n-octane) at three temperatures (295.15, 301.15, and 307.15) K are reported. The compositions of liquid phases at equilibrium were determined and the results were correlated with the UNIQUAC and NRTL activity coefficient models. The partition coefficients and the selectivity factor of ethylene glycol are calculated and compared to suggest which ethylene glycol is more suitable for extracting of toluene from n-octane. The phase diagrams for the studied ternary mixtures including both the experimental and correlated tie lines are presented. From the phase diagrams and the selectivity factors, it is concluded that ethylene glycol may be used as a suitable solvent in extraction of toluene from n-octane mixtures.     

High-temperature transport properties, thermal expansion and cathodic performance of Ni-substituted LaSr2Mn2O7−δ

The substitution of manganese with nickel in LaSr₂Mn₂O_7−δ, where the solubility limit corresponds to approximately 25% Mn sites, enhances the Ruddlesden-Popper phase stability at elevated temperatures and atmospheric oxygen pressure. The total conductivity of LaSr₂Mn_2−yNi_yO_7−δ (y=0-0.4) decreases with nickel additions, whilst the average thermal expansion coefficients calculated from dilatometric data in the temperature range 300-1370 K increase from (11.4-13.7)×10⁻⁶ K⁻¹ at y=0 up to (12.5-14.4)×10⁻⁶ K⁻¹ at y=0.4. The conductivity and Seebeck coefficient of LaSr₂Mn_1.6Ni_0.4O_7−δ, analyzed in the oxygen partial pressure range 10⁻¹⁵-0.3 atm at 600-1270 K, display that the electronic transport is n-type and occurs via a small polaron mechanism. Reductive decomposition is observed at the oxygen pressures close to Ni/NiO boundary, namely ∼2.3×10⁻¹¹ atm at 1223 K. Within the phase stability domain, the electronic transport properties are essentially p(O₂)-independent. The steady-state oxygen permeability of dense LaSr₂Mn_1.6Ni_0.4O_7−δ membranes is higher than that of (La,Sr)MnO_3−δ, but lower if compared to perovskite-like (Sr,Ce)MnO_3−δ. Porous LaSr₂Mn_1.6Ni_0.4O_7−δ cathodes in contact with apatite-type La₁₀Si₅AlO_26.5 solid electrolyte exhibit, however, a relatively poor electrochemical performance, partly associated with strong cation interdiffusion between the materials.     

The effect of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) on the optical,electrical and solid state properties of copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) deposited by sensitive spray pyrolysis (SSP)

Recently, the use of CZTS as the basis for other generation of low cost thin films solar cells has stimulated further researches. Its excellent p-type absorber nature, relatively high absorption coefficient and ideal energy band-gap of 1.5eV motivated these efforts. Additionally, CZTS consist of earth-abundant, cheap and non-toxic elements with very low manufacturing cost. Initially, copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS) solar cell device emerged but suffered limitations in further development because of rare indium and gallium in the device structure therefore, CZTS is recently preferred as an alternative to CIGS commercial solar cell absorber layer. In this work, solution mixture of CZTS and PVA was deposited on a substrate at temperature of 150 °C. Sensitive spray pyrolysis was used to grow the thin films where calculated amount of the precursor mixture was allowed to fall and be deposited on a heated substrate to form CZTS/PVA thin films. Subsequently, the thin film samples were annealed at a temperature of 200^oCfor 1 h to achieving pure crystalline thin film formation. SEM, XRD analysis, Optical, Solid State properties and Raman analysis were studied. The XRD analysis showed that the thin films fell into the pure kesterite structure of CZTS. Results show that produced thin films exhibited higher absorption coefficient and optical conductivity than pure CZTS, 10⁶ m^?1 and 10¹⁴(S^?1) against 10⁴cm^?1 and 10¹²(S^?1) respectively. The band-gap is between 1.53eV and 1.73eV. Using a PVA concentration of 0.05 M yielded highest absorbance and optical conductivity with lowest real dielectric constant and transmittance. These improved optical, electrical and solid state properties suitably qualify these thin films as absorber layer material for solar cell applications.     

Characterization of nitrate ions adsorption and diffusion in P（DMAEMA/HEMA） hydrogels

In this work, the adsorption and diffusion behavior of nitrate ions into polycationic P（DMAEMA/HEMA） hydrogels is analyzed. Experimental results indicated that nitrate ions can be removed efficiently from aqueous solutions. Adsorption isotherm of gels was well according to the Langmuir and Langmuir-Freundlich models. At the same time, the diffusion behavior of nitrate ions from P（DMAEMA/HEMA） hydrogels was investigated. The diffusion coefficients are strongly influenced by the changes of temperature and pH value of solutions. At the same time, D does not depend on the gels cross-linking ratio and initial solute concentration.

Degrees of stretched Kostka coefficients

Given a partition λ and a composition β, the stretched Kostka coefficient is the map n ↦ K _{n λ,n β} sending each positive integer n to the Kostka coefficient indexed by n λ and n β. Kirillov and Reshetikhin (J. Soviet Math. 41(2), 925–955, 1988) have shown that stretched Kostka coefficients are polynomial functions of n. King, Tollu, and Toumazet have conjectured that these polynomials always have nonnegative coefficients (CRM Proc. Lecture Notes 34, 99–112, 2004), and they have given a conjectural expression for their degrees (Séminaire Lotharingien de Combinatoire 54A, 2006). We prove the values conjectured by King, Tollu, and Toumazet for the degrees of stretched Kostka coefficients. Our proof depends upon the polyhedral geometry of Gelfand–Tsetlin polytopes and uses tilings of GT-patterns, a combinatorial structure introduced in De Loera and McAllister, (Discret. Comput. Geom. 32(4), 459–470, 2004). Research supported by NSF VIGRE Grant No. DMS-0135345 and by NWO Mathematics Cluster DIAMANT.     

Free-solvent model shows osmotic pressure is the dominant factor in limiting flux during protein ultrafiltration

In protein ultrafiltration (UF), the limiting flux phenomenon has been generally considered a consequence of the presence of membrane fouling or the perceived formation of a cake/gel layer that develops at high operating pressures. Subsequently, numerous theoretical models on gel/cake physics have been made to address how these factors can result in limiting flux. In a paradigm shift, the present article reestablishes the significance of osmotic pressure by examining its contribution to limiting flux in the framework of the recently developed free solvent osmotic pressure model. The resulting free-solvent-based flux model (FSB) uses the Kedem–Katchalsky model, film theory and the free solvent representation for osmotic pressure in its development. Single protein tangential-flow diafiltration experiments (30 kDa MWCO CRC membranes) were also conducted using ovalbumin (OVA, 45 kDa), bovine serum albumin (BSA, 69 kDa), and immuno-gamma globulin (IgG, 155 kDa) in moderate NaCl buffered solutions at pH 4.5, 5.4, 7 and 7.4. The membrane was preconditioned to minimize membrane fouling development during the experimental procedure. The pressure was randomly selected and flux and sieving were determined. The experimental results clearly demonstrated that the limiting flux phenomenon is not dominated by membrane fouling and the FSB model theoretically illustrates that osmotic pressure is the primary factor in limiting flux during UF. The FSB model provides excellent agreement with the experimental results while producing realistic protein wall concentrations. In addition, the pH dependence of the limiting flux is shown to correlate to the pH dependency of the specific protein diffusion coefficient.
