A novel and efficient photocatalyst, CdIn2S4, was simply prepared by a programmed temperature hydrothermal method. The product had a nanometer size （10-15 nm） and strong absorption in the range of 200 to 580 nm, and it exhibited visible-light photocatalytic activity to decompose dye methyl orange in aqueous system.     

Molybdenum Disulfide Sheathed Carbon Nanotubes

Single and double layered MoS2-coated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) were successfully prepared by pyrolyzing (NH4)2MoS4-coated multiwalled carbon nanotubes in an H2 atmosphere at 900℃. MoS2-coated MWCNs would be expected to have different tribological and mechanical properties compared to MoS2, so it may have potential applications in many fields.

Electron Capture Dissociation of Disulfide, Sulfur–Selenium, and Diselenide Bound Peptides

To examine the electron capture dissociation (ECD) behavior of disulfide (S?CS), sulfur?Cselenium (S?CSe), and diselenide (Se?CSe) bonds-containing peptides, a series of free cysteine (Cys) and selenocysteine (Sec) containing peptides were reacted to form interchain S?CS, S?CSe, and Se?CSe bonds, and then studied using ECD with Fourier transform ion cyclotron mass spectrometry (FTICR MS). These results demonstrate that the radical has higher tendency to stay at selenium rather than sulfur after the cleavage of Se?CS bonds by ECD. In addition, ?CSH (?C33), ?CS (?C32), and ?CS + H (?C31) small neutral losses were all observed from the cleavage of C?CS bonds of a disulfide bound peptide. Similar, but minor, fragments were also detected in S?CSe bound peptides. In contrast, the cleavage of C?CSe bonds of the Se?CSe species mainly forms fragments with neutral loss of ?CSe + H (?C78.90868), and the radical tends to stay on the selenium of its corresponding complementary pair. Although the electron affinities of S atom (2.07?eV) and Se atom (2.02?eV) are very close; they have very different reactivity towards electrons. The replacement of sulfur with selenium greatly increases the electron affinities of S?CSe and Se?CSe bonds comparing to S?CS bonds (with an increase of electron affinity by about 0.20?eV by replacing a sulfur with a selenium) (Int J Quantum Chem 110:513-523, 2010), which in turn leads to different ECD fragmentation behavior and mechanisms. Our results are in good agreement with previously published ab initio calculations on Se?CSe compounds by other groups.

Synthesis,Spectral Characterization,and Crystal Structure of Two Polymorphs of o,o’-Dichloro Dibenzyl Disulfide

2-Chlorophenyl methanethiol undergoes air oxidation catalyzed by different selenides and yields the corresponding disulfide 1 in two polymorphic forms, 1a and 1b. In the molecular structures of the two new polymorphs of o,o′-dichloro dibenzyl disulfide, the dihedral angles between the dibenzyl groups are 82.0(1)°, (1a), and 73.7(4)°, (1b), respectively [(1a): P-1, a = 8.424(2) Å, b = 8.838(2) Å, c = 10.5823(19) Å, α = 90.122(18)°, β = 112.19(2)°, γ = 95.19(2)°, V = 725.9(3) ų; (1b): P2₁/n, a = 10.5888(10) Å, b = 9.1590(6) Å, c = 15.2489(14) Å, β = 103.072(9)°, V = 1440.6(2) ų]. MOPAC computational studies yield dihedral angles of 89.6(5)° and 71.9(9)°. Crystal packing is stabilized by weak π-ring (C?H···Cg) intermolecular interactions in both 1a and 1b and by additional weak Cg ··· Cg intermolecular interactions in 1b, which influence the bond distances, bond angles, and torsion angles of the dibenzyl groups in each polymorph. Additional characterization of each polymorph has been carried out by TEM, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, microanalysis, and by FAB mass spectrometry. TEM studies of a sample of 1a show that it contains cigar-shaped crystallites.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Carbon Disulfide Using Bis(4-(4′-Nitrophenyl)azo-2-Nitrophenyl) Disulfide

Bis(4-(4-nitrophenyl)azo-2-nitrophenyl) disulfide (NADS) has been synthesized for the first time and proposed for the indirect photometric determination of carbon disulfide by dithiocarbamic acid. The reaction, which involves the breaking of the disulfide bond with the formation of colored azothio anions, is carried out in a mixture of dimethylsulfoxide and n-butanol. The high value of the apparent molar absorptivity (2 × 10⁵) is probably due to the autocatalytic character of the reaction. Using NADS, procedures for the determination of carbon disulfide in the atmospheric air of populated areas and in the model gas mixtures designed for the calibration of gas analyzers have been developed and certified. The procedures show high sensitivity and good reproducibility.     

Alternating Current Electrolysis for the Electrocatalytic Synthesis of Mixed Disulfide via Sulfur–Sulfur Bond Metathesis towards Dynamic Disulfide Libraries

A novel approach of electrolysis using alternating current was applied in the sulfur–sulfur bond metathesis of symmetrical disulfides towards unsymmetrical disulfides. As initially expected, a statistical distribution in disulfides was obtained. Furthermore, the influence of electrode polarisation by alternating current was investigated on a two-disulfide matrix. The highly dynamic nature of this chemistry resulted in the creation of dynamic disulfide libraries by expansion of the matrices, consisting of up to six symmetrical disulfides. In addition, mixing of matrices and stepwise expanding of a matrix by using alternating current electrolysis were realised.

Eine neue selektive Tüpfelreaktion auf organische Disulfide

Zusammenfassung Alphatische und aromatische Disulfide und Diselenide werden selektiv durch Nickel-Aluminiumlegierung (50/50) in salzsaurem Alkohol zu Thiolen bzw. Selenolen reduziert, die ihrerseits mittels der Jodazidreaktion nachgewiesen werden können. Dies ermöglicht einen selektiven Nachweis von Disulfiden bei Abwesenheit anderer mit Jodazidlösung positiv reagierender Verbindungen (Thiole, Thione, Senföle, Thiosäuren und Derivate).

Summary Aliphatic and aromatic disulfides and diselenides are reduced selectively by nickel-aluminium alloys (50/50) in hydrochloric acid-alcohol to yield thiols or selenols, which in their turn can be detected through the iodine-azide reaction. This permits a selective detection of disulfides in the absence of other compounds which react positively with the iodine-azide solution (thiols, thiones, mustard oils, thio acids, and derivatives).

α,β-Acetylenic Acids and Their Derivatives in Reactions with Hydrogen Sulfide and Thiols

Results of the research into reactions of ,-acetylenic acids and their derivatives with hydrogen sulfide and thiols are summarized. The addition direction and stereochemistry depend on whether there is an activating group at the triple bond, as well as on the structure of the thiol. The reactions not infrequently provide not only monothiylation products, but complete with intramolecular cyclization yielding polyfunctional heterocyclic compounds.
