Copolymers of methyl methacrylate with some benzanthrone dyes, photo-stabilisers and their combined structures

Copolymerisation of methyl methacrylate with nine novel monomer compounds, triazinyl benzanthrone dyes, triazinyl benzotriazole stabilisers and their combined structures, was investigated. Chemical bonding of the compounds in the polymers obtained was confirmed spectrophotometrically. The quantity of the chemically bonded monomer compounds was determined to be over 50%, providing a colour and a fluorescence stable to solvents. Their influence on the rate of the copolymerisation was studied. It was found that the compounds under study did not significantly affect the rate of copolymerisation. A stabilizing effect towards photo-degradation of PMMA was achieved at 0.1 wt.% initial concentration of the compounds, which made them suitable for “one-step” colouration and stabilisation of PMMA.     

烯丙基硅烷的一步法合成研究

采用一步合成方式,将3-溴丙烯与金属镁在以甲苯和供电子溶剂(乙醚或THF)构成的混合溶剂中进行反应,继而与四氯化硅反应,成功合成了四烯丙基硅烷,其产率在乙醚与3-溴丙烯的摩尔比为4(V甲苯/V乙醚=1·1)时达到极值,超过了91%。研究同时发现,选择THF代替乙醚时,同样在THF与3-溴丙烯的摩尔比为4(V甲苯/VTHF=1·7)时产率达到极值(63·12%)。本过程可提高产率,降低成本,是一条好的生产四烯丙基硅烷的路线。

One-step synthesis and photochromic properties of a stable triangle terthiophene

A new photochromic compound based on the hexatriene backbone was prepared by one-step coupling. The photochromic backbone, composed of three thiophene ring, undergoes reversible ring-opening and ring-closing photoisomerization reactions when irradiated with ultraviolet and visible light, respectively. It exhibited fatigue resistance and thermally irreversible photochromic properties. The ring-open form exhibits appreciable fluorescence, while quenched by the ring-closed form.     

The Role of Column Switching in Analysing Complex Samplest

Abstract

Our objective in using column switching is primarily to achieve the desired separation in the minimum analysis time. Complimentary to this aim is the need for sample and column cleanup followed by column re-equilibration. Finally, all operations should be capable of automation. Fundamental to column switching methodology is the concept of Zone cutting, where part of the chromatogram is transferred to another column. This forms the basis of sample cleanup and is a very versatile and powerful method. Multiple zone cutting is also possible to further increase the scope of cleanup or to minimise analysis time. Zone cutting is also complimentary to the techniques of trace enrichment and recycling. Examples will be given involving the use of these techniques in the analysis of complex matrices such as urine, plant extracts, wine and serum. The latter will be used to propose a novel approach to the quantitative analysis of anti-convulsants in serum using hexobarbital as internal standard.     

Influence of Cu2+ dopant in optical property of CdTe quantum dots and photoelectrochemical performance of CdTe:Cu2+/TiO2 nanotube arrays

A novel one-step synthesis process was used to prepare CdTe:Cu²⁺/TiO₂ nanotube arrays (TNTAs). X-ray powder diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analyses confirmed that the obtained CdTe:Cu²⁺ quantum dots (QDs) possess cubic structures, which are approximately spherical, and a small particle size (2.95 nm). The photoluminescent and UV–visible absorption spectra of CdTe:Cu²⁺ QDs also display an obvious redshift, which was attributed to the replacement of Cd²⁺ with Cu²⁺. Compared with that of the TNTAs and CdTe/TNTAs, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of CdTe:5% Cu²⁺/TNTAs increased by 785.7% and 103.3%, respectively. The incident photo-to-current conversion efficiency of CdTe:5% Cu²⁺/TNTAs was 50.6%, which indicated the potential use of QDs in photochemical solar cells.     

Preparation of Surface Molecularly Imprinted Poly(dopamine) Film for 4-Hydroxybenzoic Acid (4-BA) Recognition by One-Step Method

In this paper, we present a one-step aqueous self-polymerization strategy to prepare surface molecularly imprinted poly(dopamine) (PDA) film. The method is simple and convenient compared with the “template-guided” surface molecularly imprinted synthesis method and the layer-by-layer self-assembly and the surface-grafted molecularly imprinted synthesis methods. The molecularly imprinted PDA films could selectively bind the template molecules (4-Hydroxybenzoic acid as a model), and bisphenol A (BPA) imprinted PDA films were also investigated. Meanwhile, the 2-dimension imprinted film material was used very conveniently.     

An improved Pfitzinger reaction: Eco-efficient synthesis of quinaldine-4-carboxylates by TMSCl-mediated

We report herein an improved Pfitzinger reaction for the synthesis of highly functionalized quinaldines from 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, isatins and alcohols mediated by TMSCl. This synthesis involves cyclization and esterification in one-step cascade process for the formation of a carboxylate (CO₂R) at the 4-position of quinaldine ring. Moreover, this procedure shows highly efficient, good functional group tolerance, operational simplicity, environment-friendly and feasibility of scale up.     

One step nanoencapsulation of corrosion inhibitors for gradual release application

The direct application of corrosion inhibitors on metal surfaces is potentially dangerous for the environment and the restoration operators, thus new conservation strategies are mandatory. In this study, two copper corrosion inhibitors, 1H-benzotriazole (BTA) and 5-phenyl-1H-tetrazole (PT), are encapsulated in a silica nanocontainer, for future application in smart coatings, with the aim to reduce the amount of chemicals used in treatments, their dispersion in the environment and the direct exposure of the operators to these chemicals. In particular, composite silica nanocapsules, containing the corrosion inhibitors, are prepared via one-step synthesis, based on mini-emulsion polymerisation processes.The morphology, structure, and texture of these loaded silica nanocontainers are characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and N₂ physisorption (BET/BJH). Micro-Raman spectroscopy (RS) is performed to characterise the composition. UV–visible spectroscopy and thermal analysis (TG/DSC) are performed for the loading and encapsulation efficiency (L%, EE%) study.Synthesised nanocapsules show a core-shell structure and, when loaded with the inhibitors, have size ranging from about 130 to 170 nm and a BET surface area of the order of 800 m²/g. The EE% is maximum in the case of BTA and decreases to ～52% in the case of PT.
