Preparation of novel curcumin‐imprinted polymers based on magnetic multi‐walled carbon nanotubes for the rapid extraction of curcumin from ginger powder and kiwi fruit root

A novel molecularly imprinted polymer based on magnetic phenyl‐modified multi‐walled carbon nanotubes was synthesized using curcumin as the template molecule, methacrylic acid as the functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross‐linker. The phenyl groups contained in the magnetic imprinted polymers acted as the assisting functional monomer. The magnetic imprinted polymers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. Adsorption studies demonstrated that the magnetic imprinted polymers possessed excellent selectivity toward curcumin with a maximum capacity of 16.80 mg/g. Combining magnetic extraction and high‐performance liquid chromatography technology, the magnetic imprinted polymer based on magnetic phenyl‐modified multi‐walled carbon nanotubes was applied for the rapid separation and enrichment of curcumin from ginger powder and kiwi fruit root successfully.     

Optimal Sliding Mode Robust Control for Fractional-Order Systems with Application to Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Tracking Control

This paper presents an optimal sliding mode output tracking control scheme for a class of fractional-order uncertain systems. Firstly, an augmented fractional-order system, composed of the original system and the external system, is constructed to transform the optimal output tracking issue into the design problem of linear quadratic regulator. The optimal tracking control problem for the nominal augmented fractional-order system is then studied. Secondly, the fractional-integral sliding mode controller is introduced to robustify the augmented fractional-order system, which satisfy the matching conditions. As a result, the original system output can track the external system output trajectory effectively even the uncertainties exist. Finally, the developed design techniques are applied to the tracking control of fractional-order permanent magnet synchronous motor. The simulation results demonstrate the validity of this approach.     

Electrochemical detection of quantum dots by stabilization of electrogenerated copper species

The determination of quantum dots is of particular interest as they are frequently used as labels in electrochemical biosensors. In this paper, we describe a method for the detection of very low concentrations of quantum dots using the voltammetric response of copper in ammonia solution. Copper species electrogenerated on the electrode surface are stabilized by the nanoparticles, preventing their oxidation by dissolved oxygen, and a relationship between the concentration of the nanoparticles and the copper voltammetric response can thus be obtained. The reported method shows a linear range between 0.05 and 2 nM of quantum dots, with a limit of detection in the order of 9 × 10⁷ nanoparticles. This method could be employed to improve the detection limit of electrochemical biosensors using quantum dots as labels.     

Tea-derived carbon materials as anode for high-performance sodium ion batteries

Sodium-ion batteries (SIB) have attracted widespread attention in large-scale energy storage fields owing to the abundant reserve in the earth and similar properties of sodium to lithium. Biomass-based carbon materials with low-cost, controllable structure, simple processing technology, and environmental friendliness tick almost all the right boxes as one of the promising anode materials for SIB. Herein, we present a simple novel strategy involving tea tomenta biomass-derived carbon anode with enhanced interlayer carbon distance (0.44 nm) and high performance, which is constructed by N,P co-doped hard carbon (Tea-1100-NP) derived from tea tomenta. The prepared Tea-1100-NP composite could deliver a high reversible capacity (326.1 mAh/g at 28 mA/g), high initial coulombic efficiency (ICE = 90% at 28 mA/g), stable cycle life (262.4 mAh/g at 280 mA/g for 100 cycles), and superior rate performance (224.5 mAh/g at 1400 mA/g). Experimental results show that the excellent electrochemical performance of Tea-1100-NP due to the high number of active N,P-containing groups, and disordered amorphous structures provide ample active sites and increase the conductivity, meanwhile, large amounts of microporous shorten the Na⁺ diffusion distance as well as quicken ion transport. This work provides a new type of N,P co-doped high-performance tomenta-derived carbon, which may also greatly promote the commercial application of SIB.     

Synthesis and applications of thiosulfonates and selenosulfonates as free-radical reagents

Chalcogenative sulfones (thiosulfonates and selenosulfonates), as reactants for organic transformations, are widely used and interesting because of their potential to react with nucleophiles, electrophiles, and free radicals. As stable radical reagents, the synthesis and applications of chalcogenative sulfones have opened up a novel pathway to synthesize many kinds of compounds containing sulfur or selenium motifs. However, despite the numerous recent works on the synthesis and applications of thiosulfonates and selenosulfonates as radical reagents, no review has yet provided a summary of the literature. In this paper, we aim to review the synthesis and applications strategies of chalcogenative sulfones as radical reagents reported over the past several decades. Different types of catalysis are discussed in this review: (i) metal catalysis; (ii) visible-light catalysis; (iii) synergistic catalysis; and (iiii) other types. Concurrently, in visible-light catalysis and metallaphotoredox catalysis sections, we highlight that developing relatively environmentally friendly synthetic methods in this area is always a great challenge, but also a persistent pursuit. Finally, the scopes, limitations, mechanisms, and existing problems of some reactions are described briefly.     

Integrated Tandem Electrochemical-chemical-electrochemical Coupling of Biomass and Nitrate to Sustainable Alanine

Alanine is widely employed for synthesizing polymers, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. Electrocatalytic coupling of biomass molecules and waste nitrate is attractive for the nitrate removal and alanine production under ambient conditions. However, the reaction efficiency is relatively low due to the activation of the stable substrates, and the coupling of two reactive intermediates remains challenging. Herein, we realize the integrated tandem electrochemical-chemical-electochemical synthesis of alanine from the biomass-derived pyruvic acid (PA) and waste nitrate (NO₃⁻) catalyzed by PdCu nano-bead-wires (PdCu NBWs). The overall reaction pathway is demonstrated as a multiple-step catalytic cascade process via coupling the reactive intermediates NH₂OH and PA on the catalyst surface. Interestingly, in this integrated tandem electrochemical-chemical-electrochemical catalytic cascade process, Cu facilitates the electrochemical reduction of nitrate to NH₂OH intermediates, which chemically couple with PA to form the pyruvic oxime, and Pd promotes the electrochemical reduction of pyruvic oxime to the desirable alanine. This work provides a green strategy to convert waste NO₃⁻ to wealth and enriches the substrate scope of renewable biomass feedstocks to produce high-value amino acids.
