Extraction of Am(III) by dihexyl N,N-diethylcarbamoylmethyl phosphonate (CMP) in benzene from nitric acid solutions (pH 2.0 to 6.0M) has been studied. High extraction of Am(III) by CMP from 2–3M HNO3 was observed. The species extracted was found to be Am(NO3)3·3CMP. The extraction was also done with mixtures of CMP+TBP and CMP+TOPO, where mixed species were extracted in the organic phase. The back-extraction experiments gave an efficient back-extraction of Am(III) by pH 2.0 (HNO3) from the loaded CMP+TBP phase but a poor back-extraction from the loaded CMP+TOPO phase. The loading of Nd(III) by mixture of CMP and TBP was 50% of the CMP concentrations at a total Nd(III) concentration of 0.182M. The thermodynamic parameters of Am(III) extraction by a mixture of CMP and TBP were evaluated by temperature variation method, which suggests that the two-phase reaction is stabilized by enthalpy and opposed by entropy. 相似文献
'Decoking' of a 'coked' zeolite catalyst in a glow discharge in oxygen is investigated. The 'decoking' process involves reactions of atomic oxygen (O atoms) with 'coke' and yields gases such as CO, CO2 as well as other gaseous products that could be easily pumped out.Three different modes of discharge were investigated including a static mode, a flowing-gas mode, and a periodic-purge mode where the oxygen and other gaseous products of the discharge were replaced by fresh O2 gas after short but regular intervals of time. In some cases, additional heating was also used to provide base temperatures of the order of 100 °C to facilitate penetration of oxygen atoms into the inner layers and cages of the zeolite catalyst.This paper presents some results of spectroscopic analytical techniques used to monitor the atomization of oxygen, oxidation of 'coke', and to confirm the process of 'decoking'. More specifically, radiation emission on the 3 s 5S– 3p 5P transitions of O around 777.2–777.5 nm were selected for monitoring the atomization of O2. On the other hand, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to determine the amount of residual carbon and extent of 'decoking'. Furthermore, evolution of CO and CO2 gases as a function of time was systematically monitored in real time. For CO, the 451.1 nm band head belonging to the B1 - A1 bands of the Angstrom system of the CO spectrum was used, while for CO2, the band head at 353.4 nm belonging to the CO2+ spectrum was used. The rates of evolution of CO and CO2 were related to the rate of 'decoking' of the catalyst. It is noted that in the periodic-purge mode, about 63% of the total yield of CO from a given sample of the catalyst appears in the first 3-min exposure to discharge whereas it takes up to 15 min to remove nearly 94% of the removable carbon under our experimental conditions. 相似文献
New "Pt-in-CeO(2)" catalyst prepared by microemulsion method is shown to give higher activity for a water-gas shift reaction but with no formation of CH(4), the side product from hydrogenation of carbon oxides using a hydrogen-rich reformate as compared to conventional "Pt-on-CeO(2)" catalysts. Detailed characterization by DRIFT analysis and temperature programmed reduction presented in this work clearly suggest the ceria coverage on Pt inhibits the metal from forming a strong CO adsorption. 相似文献
The direct internal nucleophilic functionalization of a pi-bound carbon of neutral TpMo(CO)2(5-oxo-eta3-pyranyl) and TpMo(CO)2(5-oxo-eta3-pyridinyl) complexes by enolates represents a new reaction profile for neutral TpMo(CO)2(eta3-allyl) complexes. This Mo-mediated "1,5-Michael reaction" proceeds in good to excellent yields and provides, after demetalation, a new and efficient synthetic approach to oxa- and aza[3.2.1]bicyclics of high enantiomeric purity. 相似文献
This paper reports on extensive molecular dynamics simulations (about 40 ns in total) in both the reduced and the oxidized states of Ferredoxin from Cyanobacterium Anabaena PCC7119. These calculations have provided us with the free energy profile of the phi(47) backbone angle which controls the "CO in" to "CO out" transition of Cys46 in the reduced and oxidized Fd7119. Our main motivation has been to identify the time scales involved in the reduction of Fd and single out the amino acid residues crucially affecting the conformational change and, thus, electron transfer. The free energy profiles obtained in this study are relevant to electron transfers in the PSI/Fd7119 and Fd7119/FNR complexes. Our findings based on hydrated ferredoxin simulations are that activated processes are to occur in the protein during electron transfer to and from ferredoxin. The relative stability and the activation barrier of the "CO in" to "CO out" transition can be modulated by the distance between the Ser47 and the Glu94 residues. In our calculations, for short distances, the "CO in" state is favored in the reduced form, whereas for large distances, the "CO out" state becomes increasingly favored. Accordingly, conformational changes in Fd7119 when bound to PSI or FNR can have crucial effects on the kinetics of the electron transfer. Our simulations also show that the hydrogen bond between between Ser47(OG) and Cys46(O) is essential to lock in the "CO out" state. This finding explains why only the Ser47Thr Fd7119 mutant sustains electron transfer activity, as only residues serine and threonine can form a specific hydrogen bond with Cys46(O). Finally, our simulations predict that Phe65 has a large probability of being in close contact with the Cys46(O) at the top of the conformational free energy barrier. This carbonyl/phenyl ring interaction can then facilitate the de-localization of the Fd's electron toward the Pi orbitals of Phe65 aromatic ring which is thought to be crucial to the Fd7119/FNR electron transfer 相似文献
An in situ, selective, and quantitative hydrogenation of the terminal chlorine (alpha-haloester) in living PMMA-Cl into PMMA-H was achieved via direct transformation of a "polymerization catalyst" into a "hydrogenation catalyst" in the Ru(II)-catalyzed living radical polymerization, where the polymerization mixture of MMA was directly treated in situ with K2CO3 as a base and 2-propanol as a hydrogen donor. The reaction terminated the polymerization and, more importantly, the terminal chlorine was quantitatively hydrogenated, as confirmed by SEC, 1H NMR, and MALDI-TOF MS. 相似文献
The extremely narrow production peak of N2 and CO2 which occurs in the reaction of NO+CO on Pt(100), a phenomenon known as "surface explosion," is studied using a dynamic Monte Carlo method on a square lattice at low pressure under isothermal conditions. This analysis incorporates recent experimental evidence obtained for the same reaction on a Rh(111) surface, which has shown that N2 production occurs either from the classical N+N recombination step or by the formation and successive decay of a (N-NO)* intermediary species. Moreover, the NO dissociation rate is inhibited by coadsorbed NO and CO molecules and is enhanced both by the presence of empty sites and adsorbed N atoms as nearest neighbors. These effects are taken into account in this study, along with the experimental adsorption, desorption, and diffusion rates of the reactants. The "explosive" phenomenon is analyzed through the evolution over time of an adsorbed NO+CO monolayer at a fixed temperature of 400 K. Furthermore, as the diffusion processes of the adsorbates are included, cellular structures are observed. Our simulations show quantitative agreement in the position of maxima with those obtained through experiments using isothermal desorption mass spectroscopy. 相似文献
N-(2-Mercaptoethyl)picolylamine (MEPAH) was studied as a potentially biologically relevant ligand for the "fac-[M(CO)(3)](+)" core (M = Re, (99)Tc, (99m)Tc). To this end, the complex Re(CO)(3)(MEPA) was synthesized. The reaction of MEPAH with fac-[Re(CO)(3)(MeCN)(3)](+) took place over the course of seconds, showing the high affinity possessed by this ligand for the "fac-[Re(CO)(3)](+)" core. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study was performed confirming the nature of Re(CO)(3)(MEPA), a rare mononuclear rhenium(I) thiolate complex. Additional exploration into derivatization of the ligand backbone has afforded the analogous N-ethyl complex, Re(CO)(3)(MEPA-NEt). The high affinity of the ligand for the metal coupled with the ease of its derivatization implies that utilization of this ligand system for the purposes of (99m)Tc-radiopharmaceutical development is promising. 相似文献
Electron attachment to the van der Waals complexes of azabenzene-(CO(2))(n) results in the formation of covalent bonds between the nitrogen atoms of azabenzene and the carbon atom of CO(2). The newly formed C-N bonds establish an extended pi-orbital network over the entire moieties of the complex and thus greatly stabilize the anion, yielding a very large value of vertical detachment energy for the excess electron. The rare "associative" nature of electron attachment was found to be generally occurring in all azabenzene series, only subject to steric hindrance against the formation of the covalent C-N bond. 相似文献
The basicity in nitromethane of carbamoylmethylphosphoryl compounds (CMP), RR'P(O)CHRC(0)NR2, containing different substituents at the phosphorus or nitrogen atoms and in the methylene bridge and binary reactants (CMP)2X, where X=(CH2)5 or p-CH2C6H4CH2, was investigated. The values of pKa are linearly correlated with P, the constant of the substituents at the phosphorus atom. Conformational analysis of CMP and tetraphenylmethylenediphosphine dioxides substituted in the methylene bridge showed that bulky substituents reduce the population of complexing conformations.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1044–1050, May, 1991. 相似文献
The molecular complex formation reactions of uridine (Urd) with adenosine (Ado), cytidine (Cyd), thymidine (Thd), adenosine 5-monophosphate (AMP) and cytidine 5-monophosphate (CMP) have been studied at 20°C. It was found that the main positive noncovalent centers of ion–dipole and dipole–dipole type interactions are the protonated N(3) atoms of Urd, whereas the negative centers are the endocyclic atoms of the bases characterized by high electron density from the second molecule involved in the reaction. Moreover, NMR results indicate the occurrence of stacking in the complex (Urd)H(Cyd), whereas in the complex, (Urd)H2(Thd), it is the only type of interaction. Deprotonation of the latter species brings about a change in the character of the reaction and ion–dipole interactions have been detected in the adduct, (Urd)H(Thd). Interestingly, no involvement of the phosphate groups in the formation of AMP and CMP adducts has been evidenced and the main centers of the reactions were found to be the N(7)and N(1) atoms of AMP, or the N(3) atoms of CMP and Urd. Moreover, in the Urd/CMP system the NMR results suggest stacking-type interactions. 相似文献
In this article, we report the synthesis of "solid solution" and "core-shell" types of well-defined Co--Pt nanoalloys smaller than 10 nm. The formation of these alloys is driven by redox transmetalation reactions between the reagents without the need for any additional reductants. Also the reaction proceeds selectively as long as the redox potential between the two metals is favorable. The reaction between Co(2)(CO)(8) and Pt(hfac)(2) (hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate) results in the formation of "solid solution" type alloys such as CoPt(3) nanoparticles. On the other hand, the reaction of Co nanoparticles with Pt(hfac)(2) in solution results in "Co(core)Pt(shell)" type nanoalloys. Nanoparticles synthesized by both reactions are moderately monodispersed (sigma < 10%) without any further size selection processes. The composition of the alloys can also be tuned by adjusting the ratio of reactants. The magnetic and structural properties of the obtained nanoparticles and reaction byproducts are characterized by TEM, SQUID, UV/vis, IR, EDAX, and XRD. 相似文献
A series of "organic chemical hydrides" such as cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, cyclohexene, 2-propanol, and cyclohexanol were applied to the direct PEM fuel cell. High performances of the PEM fuel cell were achieved by using cyclohexane (OCV = 920 mV, PD(max) = 15 mW cm(-2)) and 2-propanol (OCV = 790 mV, PD(max) = 78 mW cm(-2)) as fuels without CO(2) emissions. The rates of fuel crossover for cyclohexane, 2-propanol, and methanol were estimated, and the rates of fuel permeation of cyclohexane and 2-propanol were lower than that of methanol. Water electrolysis and electro-reductive hydrogenation of acetone mediated by PEM were carried out and formation of 2-propanol in cathode side was observed. This system is the first example of a "rechargeable" direct fuel cell. 相似文献
Tin(II) chloride inserts into the ironcarbon σ-bond in MeFe(CO)2Cp (Cp = cyclopentadienyl), in refluxing methanol or THF, to give MeClSnFe(CO)2- Cp and traces of Cl3SnFe(CO)2Cp, but, with EtFe(CO)2Cp, a mixture of the insertion product, Cl3SnFe(CO)2Cp, and Cl2Sn[Fe(CO)2Cp]2 is formed. Insertion of tin(II) chloride was not observed for MeMo(CO)3Cp and MeMn(CO)5; in these reactions, and in those between tin(II)_bromide and MeFe(CO)2Cp, EtFe(CO)2Cp and Memo(CO)3Cp, mixtures of halo—metal carbonyls and halotin—metal carbonyls result. 相似文献
The observation and fast time-scale kinetic determination of a primary dioxygen-copper interaction have been studied. The ability to photorelease carbon monoxide from [Cu(I)(tmpa)(CO)](+) in mixtures of CO and O(2) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) between 188 and 218 K results in the observable formation of a copper-superoxide species, [Cu(II)(tmpa)(O(2)(-))](+) lambda(max) = 425 nm. Via this "flash-and-trap" technique, temperature-dependent kinetic studies on the forward reaction between dioxygen and [Cu(I)(tmpa)(thf)](+) afford activation parameters DeltaH = 7.62 kJ/mol and DeltaS = -45.1 J/mol K. The corresponding reverse reaction proceeds with DeltaH = 58.0 kJ/mol and DeltaS = 105 J/mol K. Overall thermodynamic parameters are DeltaH degrees = -48.5 kJ/mol and DeltaS degrees = -140 J/mol K. The temperature-dependent data allowed us to determine the room-temperature second-order rate constant, k(O2) = 1.3 x 10(9) M(-1) s(-1). Comparisons to copper and heme proteins and synthetic complexes are discussed. 相似文献
Bandgap engineering in donor–acceptor conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) is a potential way to increase the solar-energy harvesting towards photochemical water splitting. Here, the design and synthesis of a series of donor–acceptor CMPs [tetraphenylethylene (TPE) and 9-fluorenone (F) as the donor and the acceptor, respectively], F0.1CMP , F0.5CMP , and F2.0CMP , are reported. These CMPs exhibited tunable bandgaps and photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water. The donor–acceptor CMPs exhibited also intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) absorption in the visible region (λmax=480 nm) and their bandgap was finely tuned from 2.8 to 2.1 eV by increasing the 9-fluorenone content. Interestingly, they also showed emissions in the 540–580 nm range assisted by the energy transfer from the other TPE segments (not involved in charge-transfer interactions), as evidenced from fluorescence lifetime decay analysis. By increasing the 9-fluorenone content the emission color of the polymer was also tuned from green to red. Photocatalytic activities of the donor–acceptor CMPs ( F0.1CMP , F0.5CMP , and F2.0CMP ) are greatly enhanced compared to the 9-fluorenone free polymer ( F0.0CMP ), which is essentially due to improved visible-light absorption and low bandgap of donor–acceptor CMPs. Among all the polymers F0.5CMP with an optimum bandgap (2.3 eV) showed the highest H2 evolution under visible-light irradiation. Moreover, all polymers showed excellent dispersibility in organic solvents and easy coated on the solid substrates. 相似文献
The micellization of PEO-PPO-PEO block copolymers in p-xylene has been studied in the presence of CO2. With the application of CO2, some copolymers with suitable molecular weights and EO ratios can form reverse micelles with critical micellization pressure up to 5.8 MPa. For the copolymers with the same length of PO block, higher EO ratios facilitate reverse micelle formation. For the copolymers with the same composition, higher molecular weight is favorable to form reverse micelles. With the suitable composition and molecular weight, the critical micelle pressure (CMP) of copolymers decreases with the increase in the lengths of PEO and PPO blocks due to the hydrophilic and folding effects, respectively. Both the EO ratios and the molecular weights are important for the formation of reverse micelle. The reverse micelle solution can solubilize water with W0 (molar ratio of water to EO segment) up to 3.3. 相似文献
The solution processability of a conducting metallopolymer ( CMP1 ) based on a 2,2′‐bipyridyl (bipy) derivatized poly(p‐phenylene vinylene) (PPV) backbone has been accomplished by the strategic placement of sterically demanding mesityl side chains. The enhanced solubility of CMP1 can be traced to the prevention of coordinative crosslinking between polymer chains. The sterically enforced 1:1 bipy/metal ratio was confirmed by job analysis of absorption spectroscopic titration data. In addition to enhanced processability, this strategy also leads to twice as many metal ions, and consequently twice the charge, on CMP1 versus traditional bipyridyl‐PPV metallopolymers that are typified by a 2:1 bipy/metal ratio with certain metals.
The binding of 3d (Sc, Ti, V), 4d (Y, Zr, Nb), and 5d (La, Hf, Ta) transition metals on graphene nanosheet (TM–GNS) with hydrogen-terminated edges and the adsorption of H2CO and HCN molecules on the pristine and TM-doped GNSs were theoretically studied using a density functional theory method. The calculation showed that all TM atoms had strong binding with GNS, in which the Ta atom displayed the strongest interaction with GNS. The H2CO and HCN molecules showed much stronger adsorption on the TM–GNSs than that on the pristine GNS. The H2CO showed stronger interactions with TM–GNSs than that of HCN, in which the Ta-doping displayed the strongest interactions between the GNS and H2CO or HCN. The adsorption interactions induced dramatic changes of TM–GNS electronic properties. The results revealed that the adsorption strength and sensor ability of GNS can be greatly improved by introducing appropriate TM dopants. Therefore, TM-doped GNSs are suitable for application in H2CO and HCN storage and sensor. 相似文献
