锂离子电池LiTi_(0.25)Fe_(0.75)SO_4F正极材料的电子结构

采用密度泛函理论平面波赝势的方法,计算了LiFeSO_4F和LiTi_(0.25)Fe_(0.75)SO_4F正极材料的电子结构。计算结果表明:当锂嵌入材料后,S、O和F的原子布居变化较小,电子主要填充在过渡金属的3d轨道,导致过渡金属被还原,成为电化学反应的活性中心。在嵌锂态中,锂和氧(氟)之间形成了离子键,而过渡金属(Ti和Fe)与氧(氟)之间则形成了共价键,S-O键的共价性最强。态密度的计算结果则表明:Ti和Fe均保持高自旋排列结构;LiFeSO_4F的两个自旋通道的带隙分别为2.88和2.29 e V,其导电性很差;Ti掺杂使体系的带隙消失,显著地提高了正极材料的导电性;LiTi_(0.25)Fe_(0.75)SO_4F系统中Ti-O和Ti-F键均比纯相中的Fe-O和Fe-F键的共价性更强,因此Ti掺杂材料具有更好的结构稳定性。

利用手动研磨法在无溶剂条件下通过1,4-二(咪唑-2-甲醛)丁烷(A)、2,4-二亚甲基-二(咪唑-2-甲醛)-三甲基苯(B)、2,5-二亚甲基-二(咪唑-2-甲醛)-对-二甲苯(C)中的任一组分与N-乙基乙二胺(D)和三氟甲磺酸亚铁组装合成3个Fe(Ⅱ)席夫碱配合物1、2和3。X射线单晶衍射表明,配合物1结晶于空间群Cmca,2和3结晶于空间群P21/c。1~3中每个Fe(Ⅱ)与配体中6个氮原子配位形成变形八面体FeN_6配位环境;每个双臂六齿配体螯合2个亚铁离子,而每个亚铁离子被2条配体包裹形成Fe_2L_2型双核配合物。基于以上配合物的合成,我们详细研究了混合多组分间的固态自分类行为。研究表明,多组分[D+A+B+Fe~(2+)]或[D+A+C+Fe~(2+)]发生自恋型自分类;而多组分[D+B+C+Fe~(2+)]发生群体型自分类,形成了一个由2个不同类型配体构筑的Fe2LL′杂配型配合物4,同时X射线单晶衍射确证了4的结构。此外,通过与溶液中自分类的对比,我们发现该体系固态自分类表现出更为高效的特点。     

A Rhodamine-based fluorescent sensor for chromium ions and its application in bioimaging

A rhodamine-based sensor (1) has been developed for the detection of chromium ions. Cr³⁺-induced opening of the rhodamine spirocycle in sensor (1) led to the distinct colorimetric and fluorescence responses. Among all the tested ions, only Cr³⁺ generated a significant fluorescence enhancement of up to 13-fold, which indicated the high selectivity of 1. Sensor (1) was successfully applied in the in vivo fluorescence imaging of Cr³⁺ in C. elegans. The results provided solid evidences for the future estimation of Cr³⁺ in environmental applications and tobacco samples.     

Polyethylene glycol phospholipids encapsulated silicon 2,3-naphthalocyanine dihydroxide nanoparticles (SiNcOH-DSPEPEG(NH2) NPs) for single NIR laser induced cancer combination therapy

Currently, the combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a powerful technique for cancer treatment. However, most examples of combined PTT and PDT reported use multi-component nanocomposites under excitation of separate wavelength, resulting in complex treatment process. In this work, a novel theranostic nanoplatform (SiNcOH-DSPE-PEG(NH₂) NPs) has been successfully developed by coating silicon 2,3-naphthalocyanine dihydroxide (SiNcOH) with DSPE-PEG and DSPE-PEG-NH₂ for photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided PTT and PDT tumor ablation for the first time. The as-prepared single-agent SiNcOH-DSPE-PEG(NH₂) NPs not only have good water solubility and biocompatibility, but also exhibit high photothermal conversion efficiency and singlet oxygen generation capability upon 808 nm NIR laser irradiation. In addition, owing to their high absorption at NIR region, the SiNcOH-DSPE-PEG(NH₂) NPs can also be employed as an effective diagnostic nanoagent for photoacoustic (PA) imaging. In vitro and in vivo experimental results clearly indicated that the simultaneously combined PTT and PDT under the guidance of PA imaging with single NIR laser excitation can effectively kill cancer cells or eradicate tumor tissues. Taking facile synthesis and high efficiency in cancer treatment by SiNcOH-DSPE-PEG(NH₂) NPs into consideration, our study provides a promising strategy to realize molecular imaging-guided combination therapy.     

Influence of terminal substituents on the halide anion binding of foldamer-based receptors

Foldamers 1–4 incorporating different terminal substituents have been designed and synthesized for binding halide anions.~1H NMR titration experiments carried out in DMSO-d_6/CDCl_3(15/85, v/v)demonstrated that the short oligo (aryltriazole)s backbone 1 could not bind halide anions unless that amide H-bond donors were incorporated at the termini of the oligomer. Terminal substituents on oligo(aryltriazoleamide)s foldamers 2–4 display a considerable influence on the binding affinities of the foldamers for halide anions. Large steric hindrance of the terminal substituents was found to be unfavorable for binding halide anions, but aromatic π-π interactions between two terminal substituents are capable of stabilizing the conformation of foldamers thus giving rise to an enhancement in the binding strengths. However, the terminal substituents were found to hardly affect the binding selectivity in the studied cases.     

Electrochemical properties of niobium and phosphate doped spherical Li-rich spinel LiMn2O4 synthesized by ion implantation method

Spherical Li-rich lithium manganese oxide(LMO) spinel material was synthesized by an ion implanted method assisted by polyalcohol doped with Niobium and Phosphate simultaneously.The material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction and BET specific surface area analysis.The electrochemical performances were investigated with galvanostatic techniques and cyclic voltammetry.The synthesis process was investigated with TG/DSC.The results show that the lithium ion can be immersed into the pore of manganese dioxide at a low temperature with the ion implanted method.The prepared materials have a higher discharge capacity and better crystallization than those prepared by solid phase method.The doped Nb can improve the capacity of the Li-rich LMO spinel and reinforce the crystal growth along(111) and(400) planes.The crystal grains show circular and smooth morphology,which makes the specific surface area greatly decreased.Phosphate-doped LMO spinel exhibits good high-rate capacity and structure stability.The prepared Li_(1.09)Mn_(1.87)Nb_(0.031)O_(3.99)(PO_4)_(0.021)delivers a discharge capacity of 119mAhg~(-1) at 0.2C(1C=148mAg~(-1)) and 112.8 mAhg~(-1) at 10 C,the discharge capacity retention reaches 98% at 1 ℃ after 50 cycles at 25 ℃ and 94% at 55 ℃.

采用4-氯甲基苯乙烯(VBC)为单体,二乙烯基苯为交联剂(DVB),以磁性γ-甲基丙烯酰氧基丙基三甲氧基硅烷(MPS)修饰硅胶微球为核,在偶氮二异丁腈(AIBN)引发下,以甲苯和聚乙二醇2000的混合溶液(质量比1∶2)为联合致孔剂,原位聚合制备了磁性聚苯乙烯-氯甲基苯乙烯材料(Fe3O4@Si O2@DVBVBC)。通过傅立叶红外光谱(FT-IR)、X-射线衍射(XRD)和氮气物理吸附对该材料的结构和组成特性进行了表征。以蒽为考察对象,对制备材料的吸附性能进行了考察,发现单体和交联剂的质量比对材料的吸附能力影响较大。当单体和交联剂的质量比为1∶4时,对蒽的吸附性能最佳。材料的孔结构会影响吸附平衡时间。制备的材料对蒽能够在30 min内达到吸附平衡且吸附率达95%。该材料对多环芳烃化合物的吸附主要依靠疏水作用。吸附动力学研究表明,材料对蒽的吸附性能对准一级动力学方程具有较好的拟合程度。采用2 mL乙腈涡旋15 min可将99%的蒽洗脱下来。
