泡沫镍铁合金自支撑NiFeOOH纳米片的制备及析氧性能研究

电催化析氧反应(OER)是电解水制氢的重要半电池反应。然而,OER的缓慢动力学仍需研究高效的电催化剂。在非贵金属催化剂中,NiFe基材料是OER催化剂研究热点。本文通过食人鱼溶液简单一步浸渍刻蚀法将不同Fe含量的泡沫NiFe合金进行氧化,制备了表面具有纳米片形貌的NiFeOOH自支撑电催化剂,并深入研究其电催化析氧性能。通过SEM、XRD、XPS等对电催化剂的形貌结构及成分进行表征,证实了三维多孔基底上NiFeOOH纳米片结构的形成。由于高价镍、铁物种的存在以及二维纳米片结构的生成,NiFeOOH/NF的析氧性能大幅度提高,在10 mA?cm-2的电流密度下过电位仅155.68 mV,Tafel斜率为 88.2 mV?dec-1。这为研制高效、耐用的自支撑非贵金属电极提供了新思路。     

Physicochemical properties of nitrile-functionalized ionic liquids

A series of ionic liquids (ILs) based on nitrile-functionalized imidazolium, pyridinium, and quaternary ammonium as cations and chlorides and tetrafluoroborate, hexafluorophosphate, dicyanamide, and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide as anions have been prepared and characterized. The physicochemical properties such as spectroscopic, thermal, solubility, surface, electrochemical, tribological, and toxic properties were comparatively studied. The results showed that the incorporation of a CN group to cations could result in remarkable changes in these properties. The reason resulting in such remarkable differences in the properties may be attributed to the conformational changes in the imidazolium groups caused by the interaction between the CN group with other neighboring cations or anions and the enhancement in hydrogen-bonding interactions due to the incorporation of a CN group.     

Z型异质结Cu2O/Bi2MoO6的构建及光催化降解性能

通过水热法制备出一系列Z型异质结Cu₂O/Bi₂MoO₆新型光催化剂。采用扫描电子显微镜、粉末X射线衍射、红外光谱、紫外可见吸收光谱等表征手段研究了催化剂的形貌、结构性质和光电化学性质,并以四环素(TC)为降解目标污染物,进一步探究了其催化效率。实验结果表明,Cu₂O的加入提高了复合催化剂的光催化性能,其中20% Cu₂O/Bi₂MoO₆复合催化剂(Cu₂O和Bi₂MoO₆的质量比为20%)降解效果最好,100 min内可降解95%的TC。Cu₂O与Bi₂MoO₆之间的协同作用使其可以吸收更多的可见光,所构建的Z型异质结改变了电子转移途径,提高了电子与空穴的分离效率,光催化活性显著提高。通过自由基捕获实验和能带结构,分析了Z型异质结Cu₂O/Bi₂MoO₆复合催化剂光催化降解TC可能的机理。     

Design,Synthesis and Antiproliferative Activities of Diaryl Thiourea Derivatives as Anticancer Agents

Two new series of diaryl thiourea containing sorafenib derivatives 9a – 9t were designed and synthesized, and their antiproliferative activities against PC‐3, HCT116 and MDA‐MB‐231 cell lines were evaluated. All compounds generally showed antiproliferative activity to PC‐3 cells, most of the analogs exhibited potent antiproliferative activity to HCT116 cells, and compounds 9e , 9f , 9o and 9p demonstrated inhibitory activities against all three cell lines. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were determined by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and HRMS.     

Novel Cyclic Sulfonium‐Based Ionic Liquids: Synthesis,Characterization, and Physicochemical Properties

A new series of ionic liquids composed of three cyclic sulfonium cations and four anions has been synthesized and characterized. Their physicochemical properties, including their spectroscopic characteristics, ion cluster behavior, surface properties, phase transitions, thermal stability, density, viscosity, refractive index, tribological properties, ion conductivity, and electrochemical window have been comprehensively studied. Eight of these salts are liquids at room temperature, at which some salts based on [NO₃]^? and [NTf₂]^? ions exhibit organic plastic crystal behaviors, and all the saccharin‐based salts display relatively high refractive indices (1.442–1.594). In addition, some ionic liquids with the [NTf₂]^? ion exhibit peculiar spectroscopic characteristics in FTIR and UV/Vis regions, whilst those salts based on the [DCA]^? ion show lower viscosities (34.2–62.6 mPa s at 20 °C) and much higher conductivities (7.6–17.6 mS cm^?1 at 20 °C) than most traditional 1,3‐dialkylimidazolium salts.     

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Blockchain-based intelligent contract for factoring business in supply chains

Factoring business, an important aspect in the supply chain finance field, has significant potential in adopting blockchain-based intelligent contract technology. Based on the existing theories of factoring business in supply chains, this paper conducts a coupling analysis between blockchain technology and supply chain factoring business. Specifically, we propose the application scenarios of blockchain-based intelligent contract technology in the supply chain factoring business from three aspects: the division and transfer of creditors’ rights certificate, the factoring financing of upstream suppliers, and the due payment of core enterprises, and elaborate their implementation processes. Furthermore, from a game theoretical perspective, we analyze the mechanism of the key technology implementation of the intelligent contract to verify whether the nodes on the blockchains will follow the relevant protocols to automatically execute them. Finally, we conduct a three-way game analysis of the supply chain factor financing process and obtain an equilibrium solution based on the principle of utility maximization, which highlights the optimization effect of the intelligent contract technology on the decision-making behavior of individual entities in the supply chain.

Visconata: A rare flavonol having long chain fatty acid from Dodonaea viscosa which inhibits Human neutrophil elastase (HNE)

A series of flavonoids were isolated from Dodonaea Viscosa and tested for inhibition of human neutrophil elastase (HNE), enzyme involved in inflammatory disorders. Isolated compounds were identified as a novel flavonol (1) along with eight known flavonoids (2–9). Novel flavonol, visconata (1) has a very rare skeleton having odd numbered long chain (C19) fatty acid, which was completely identified by mass fragmentation and 2D NMR analysis. All compounds (1–9) inhibited HNE in dose dependent manner with IC₅₀s ranging between 2.4 and 150 μM. Visconata (1) emerged to be the most potent compound with 2.4 μM of IC₅₀. In kinetic studies, compound (1) was observed to be reversible, noncompetitive inhibitor having K_i = 1.8 μM, whereas other flavonoids (2–9) displayed mixed type inhibition.
