Facile and efficient synthesis of fluorinated fullerene-fused 1,3-dioxolanes: reaction of C60 with fluorinated aromatic aldehyde mediated by lithium perchlorate

A series of fluorinated fullerene-fused 1,3-dioxolanes have been facilely and efficiently synthesized in the presence of easily available LiClO₄·3H₂O. The influences of the number of fluoro-substituents and their positions linked to the phenyl ring on the isolated yield of fullerene-fused 1,3-dioxolanes have been studied in detail. Based on reaction facts, a possible reaction mechanism for the formation of fluorinated fullerene-fused 1,3-dioxolanes has been proposed. Furthermore, detailed ultraviolet absorption spectra, fluorescence emission spectra, and cyclic voltammogram further explain the optical properties and electronic transmission capabilities of the products.     

Fmoc synthesis of peptide thioesters without post-chain-assembly manipulation

An operationally simple method for the synthesis of peptide thioesters is developed using standard Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis procedures. The method relies on the use of a premade enamide-containing amino acid which, in the final TFA cleavage step, renders the desired thioester functionality through an irreversible intramolecular N-to-S acyl transfer.

Magnetic-controllable Janus fibrous membranes with wind-resistant floatability for airflow-enhanced solar evaporation

Interfacial solar evaporation has been widely regarded as a promising pathway to desalinate seawater without secondary pollution and additional carbon emission. However, one of the challenges rarely considered is the floating stability and remote controllability of the evaporator in the face of wind and waves at the seawater surface. Herein, we demonstrate magnetic Janus membranes (MJMs) with remotely magnetic controllability and wind-resistant floatation for enhanced interfacial solar evaporation in airflow condition. These membranes are fabricated by sequential electrospinning of a hydrophobic Fe₃O₄-embedded polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) layer and a hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile (PAN) layer. Due to the superparamagnetism of Fe₃O₄, our MJMs can be remotely manipulated by a magnet and can float in situ with the aid of a magnetic field, even facing the blast of airflow with a speed of 1.75 m/s. Moreover, the MJMs realize an enhanced vapor diffusion under airflow (v = 0.5 m/s) and show a water evaporation rate of 1.39 ± 0.06 kg∙m⁻²∙h⁻¹ under one sun, which is 40.4% higher than that in windless condition. This work provides a promising material solution with magnetic design for the practical offshore application of Janus membranes in interfacial solar evaporation.     

Evacuation of pedestrians from a hall by game strategy update

In this paper, a cellular automaton model considering game strategy update is proposed to study the pedestrian evacuation in a hall. Pedestrians are classified into two categories, i.e., cooperators and defectors, and they walk to an exit according to their own strategy change. The conflicts that two or three pedestrians try to occupy the same site at the same time are investigated in the Game theory model. Based on it, the relationship between the pedestrian flow rate and the evacuation time as well as the variation of cooperative proportion against evacuation time is investigated from the different initial cooperative proportions under the influence of noise. The critical value of the noise is found when there is a small number of defectors in the initial time. Moreover, the influences of the initial cooperative proportion and strength of noise on evacuation are discussed. The results show that the lower the initial cooperative proportion as well as the bigger the strength of noise, the longer the time it takes for evacuation.
