立体专一性地合成（Z）-α-氟-β-三氟甲基乙烯基碘化物和应用于合成多氟噻吩基双烯烃

The direct iodination of polyfluorinated vinyl stannanes by tin-iodine exchange methodology was achieved giving （Z）-α-fluoro-β-trifluoromethyl vinyl iodides stereospecifically. Changing the substituent in R group from the electron-withdrawing group to electron-donating group led to an increase in the yield from 78% to 90%, while it was moved from para to meta position the reaction did not afford a dramatic change in the yield （90% to 95%）. In addition, this reaction also can be applied to the vinyl stannane with heterocyclic group. The further coupling reaction of prepared vinyl iodide containing heterocyclic moiety with （Z）-α-fluoro-β-trifluoromethylstannanes gave polyfluorinated heterocyclic alkadienes with 2E,4E-selectivity.     

Molecular Dynamics Studies of the Kinetics of Phase Changes in Clusters IV： Crystal Nucleation from Molten （NaCl）256 and （NaCl）500 Clusters

Molecular dynamics computer simulation based on the Born-Mayer-Huggins potential function has been carried out to study the effects of duster size and temperature on the nucleation rate of sodium chloride dusters in the temperature range of 580 K to 630 K. Clusters with 256 and 500 NaCl molecules have been studied and the results have been compared with those obtained from 108 molecule dusters. The melting point (MP) of the clusters were observed to increase with the size of the clusters and can be well described by a linear equation MP =1107(37)-1229(23)N^-1/3(N is the number of molecules in the duster).The nucleation rate was found to decrease with increasing the duster size or temperature. Various nucleation theories have been used to interpret the nucleation rates obtained from this molecular dynamics simulation. It is possible to use a constant diffuse interface thickness to interpret the nucleation rate from the diffuse interface theory in the temperature range of this study. However, the interfacinl free energy estimated from classical nucleation theory and diffuse interface theory increases too fast with increasing the temperature while that from Gran-Gunton theory does not change with changing temperatures.The sizes of critical nuclei estimated from all the theories are smaller than those estimated from our simulations.     

A MORPHOLOGICAL STUDY OF POLY（DIVINYLBENZENE-co-ACRYLIC ACID） IN CROSSLINKING PRECIPITATION POLYMERIZATION

Divinylbenzene-80 （DVB-80） and polar monomer acrylic acid （AA） having hydrogen bonding at a total monomer loading of 5 vol% were precipitated-copolymerized in a variety of organic solvents with 2,2＇-azobis（isobutyronitrile） （AIBN） as initiator. The experiments were investigated from a two-dimensional matrix, i.e., the actual crosslinking degree of DVB varying from 0 to 80% and the solvent composition varying from 0 to 100% of toluene mixture with acetonitrile, when the mixture of acetonitrile and toluene was used as the reaction solvent. Under various reaction conditions, six distinct morphologies including soluble polymers, swellable microgels, coagulum, irregular microparticles, and nano-/micrometer microspheres were formed and the structures of these polymer architectures were described. A morphological map was utilized to discuss the effects of both crosslinking degree of DVB and composition of solvent on the transitions between morphology domains. The results demonstrated that the microspheres are formed by an internal contraction due to the marginal solvency of the continuous phase and the crosslinking of the polymer network through the covalent bonding from DVB as well as the interchain hydrogen-bonding between the carboxylic acid units.     

SYNTHESIS AND PROPERITIES OF SHISH-KEBAB-TYPE LIQUID CRYSTALLINE POLY（p-PHENYLENE）S

Abstract The novel shish-kebab-type liquid crystalline poly（p-phenylene）s were synthesized through Suzuki coupling reaction from 2,5-bis[（4-n-alkoxyl）benzoyloxy]1,4-dibromobenzene （monomer 1） and 1,4-benzenediboronic acid bistrimethylene cyclic ester （monomer 2）. Their structure and properties were characterized by GPC, DSC, X-ray diffraction and polarizing optical microscope （POM）. It was found that the polymers turned to liquid crystalline phase above their melting point. The melting point （Tm） of the polymers decreases when the length of the alkoxy tails of the mesogenic units increases. The mesophase was identified by X-ray diffraction method. The polymers could dissolve in common organic solvents and show strong blue fluorescence. The maximum absorption bands of polymers prepared from annealed films have large red-shift due to the spontaneous orientation of the liquid crystalline side chains. The same phenomena were also observed in the fluorescence spectra.     

Novel Isatin-Schiff Base Cu （Ⅱ） and Ni（Ⅱ） Complexes. X-ray Crystal Structure of Bis[3-（4-hexylphenylimino）-1H-indol-2（3H）-one]- dichlorocopper（Ⅱ） Complex

Schiff base ligand （HL） derived from 4-hexylaniline with isatin （1H-indole-2,3-dione） and its complexes with Cu（Ⅱ）, Ni（Ⅱ） were prepared and characterized by analytical, spectroscopic （IR, UV-Vis, Mass） techniques, electrical conductivity, magnetic and thermal measurements. The crystal and molecular structure of [Cu（HL）2Cl2] was determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The molecular structure of the title compound has an inversion center on the Cu atom.     

Investigation on Concentrated Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） Redox Reaction by Rotating Disc Voltammetry

The kinetic characteristics of the concentrated Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） couple have been studied at a glassy carbon electrode in sulfuric acid using rotating-disc electrode and cyclic voltammetry. The kinetics of the Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） redox couple reaction was found to be electrochemically quasi-reversible with the slower kinetics for the Ⅴ（Ⅴ） reduction than that for the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） oxidation. And, dependence of diffusion coefficients and kinetic parameters of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） species on the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 concentration was investigated. It is shown that the concentration of active species Ⅴ（Ⅳ） should be over 1 mol·L^-1 for the redox flow battery application. Further, with increasing the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 concentration, the diffusion coefficients of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） were gradually reduced whereas its kinetics was improved considerably, especially in the case of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 up to 2 and 4 mol·L^-1.     

A Density Functional Study of Small （NiTi）x Clusters with x=1-3

Systematic studies on the geometry, electronic structure and vibrational properties of small (NiTi)x clusters with x=1-3, within the framework of the density functional theory, were performed in this work. The electronic structure analyses were used to investigate the bonding between the early-late(EL) transition metals in their alloy. The results of our calculations have been used to predict (NiTi)x clusters structure for the ground state and confirm that s-electron density is transferred from Ti atoms to Ni atoms followed by the back donation of electrons through the d-orbital. The study provides a fragment approach based on the isolobal analogy that NiTi molecular fragments play a significant role in forming clusters.     

NUCLEATION MECHANISM OF PEO BLOCK IN DOUBLE-CRYSTALLINE POLY（ETHYLENE-co-BUTENE）-b-POLY（ETHYLENE OXIDE） BLOCK COPOLYMERS

In this paper, we proposed a method to determine the nucleation effect of pre-existing crystals on crystallization of the second block in double crystalline block copolymers, which is usually covered by the suppression effect. The nucleation mechanism of poly（ethylene oxide） （PEO） block from the pre-crystallized polyethylene （PE） block in poly（ethylene-cobutene）-b-poly（ethylene glycol） （EmEOn） diblock copolymers was investigated under variable crystallization environments. The crystallization environment for the PEO block was altered by cooling at different cooling rates or successive selfnucleation （SSN） to the PE block. It was found that the presence of nucleation effect is strongly dependent on composition of the block copolymers. The crystallization temperature （Tc） of PEO block in E174EO90 increases as cooling rate applied to the PE block decreases, indicating that PE block can nucleate the crystallization of PEO block and more perfect PE crystals have stronger nucleation effect. In E182EO41 crystallization of the PEO block is confined, shown by the disappearance of selfnucleation domain, and the PE block has no nucleation effect on the crystallization of PEO block. Double crystallization peaks are observed for the PEO block in E182EO41 and the intensity of the crystallization peak at higher temperature increases as the PE crystals become more perfect. After exclusion of homogeneous nucleation mechanism, the higher temperature crystallization peak of the PEO block in E182EO41 is tentatively ascribed to surface nucleation.     

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SHISH-KEBAB TYPE LIQUID CRYSTALLINE POLY（p-PHENYLENEVINYLENE）

Novel shish-kebab type liquid crystalline poly（p-phenylenevinylene） derivatives were synthesized by Stille coupling reaction from 2,5-bis[（4-n-alkoxyl）benzoyloxy]1,4-dibromobenzene （monomer l） and 1,2-bis（tributylstannyl） ethylene （monomer 2）. The polymers with alkoxy groups are soluble in common organic solvents and exhibit blue fluorescence. Both the cast film and the annealed film have large red-shifts in fluorescence spectra and show yellow fluorescence. The polymers with CN and NO2 groups show poor solubility and green fluorescence. All the polymers possess liquid crystalline smectic phases. The melting point （Tm） of the polymers decreases when the length of the alkoxy tails of the mesogenic units increases. The polymers are easily aligned under a magnetic field of 10 Tesla. It is found that the conjugated backbone and LC side chain are aligned perpendicular and parallel to the magnetic field, respectively. The polymers show optical dichroism in fluorescence spectra, suggesting that they are available for advance materials with linear optical polarization.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Intermolecular Interactions of Cu（II） Complexes with Methyl- benzoic Acid （MBA） and 1,10-Phenanthroline

Two cupric complexes containing methylbenzoic acid have been prepared and crystallized by solvent evaporation method in DMF. The single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals that they are dicaryon complexes. Complex I with formula of [Cu2（m- MBA）4DMF2] crystallizes in monoclinic with space group of P21/c and complex 2 with formula of [Cuz（o-MBA）ffo-phen）2]·NO3·H2O crystallizes in triclinic with space group of P I. The weak interactions including C-H...O hydrogen bonds, C-H…π interactions and π-π stacking in the structures of two complexes are observed from the X-ray crystallographic data. In addition, there are still classical hydrogen bonds in 2. The different strength of intermolecular interaction in the structure is reflected on their different thermal stability measured by thermal gravimetric analysis and 2D-1R correlation spectroscopy of two complexes. The study of weak interactions is meaningful to provide supporting data for supramolecular chemistry theory and potential applications in molecular biology.     

Removal of Cd（ Ⅱ ） from Aqueous Solutions by Natural Freshwater Surface Coatings

Natural freshwater surface coatings (biofilms and associated minerals), which were developed in the Nanhu Lake, Changchun, P. R. China, were used as an efficient biosorbent for the removal of Cd(Ⅱ) from aqueous solutions. The batch experiments were carried out to determine the adsorption properties of Cd(Ⅱ) onto the natural surface coatings. The classical Langmuir adsorption isotherm was applied to estimating the equilibrium coefficients of Cd(Ⅱ) adsorbed on the surface coatings. The results show that the maximum adsorption capacity of the surface coatings is 434. 78μmol Cd/m^2 (being equal to 0. 17mmol Cd/g of surface coatings or 10. 38mmol Cd/g Fe) and the Cd(Ⅱ) remnoval from solution media by the natural surface coatings was shown to be strongly affected by solution pH and ion strength. The resulted information also indicates that the maximum Cd removal efficiency(CRE) was determined to be approximately 90% at initial Cd mass concentration of 0. 1mg/L (the concentration limit of Cd (Ⅱ) in wastewaters for discharge in aquatic media in Chinese legislation), and the kinetic adsorption of Cd (Ⅱ) onto the surface coatings is fast with around 70% of the total adsorption-taking place in 150min in solution under the controlied laboratory conditions (mineral salts solution with defined speciation, ionic strength 0. 05mol/L, and 25℃). With the advantage of high Cd adsorption capacity, the natural surface coatings appear to be a potentially effective biosorbent for the removal and recovery of Cd(Ⅱ) from polluted water.     

Synthesis and photovoltaic properties of new europium complex Eu（DBM）3（CPyBM）

A new europium（Ⅲ） complex, tris（dibertzoylmethanate）{ 1-[9-hexyl-9-carbazole]-2-（2-pyridyl）-bertzimidazole}europium（Ⅲ） [Eu（DBM）a（CPyBM）] was synthesized and used as an electron-acceptor and electron-transport layer in organic photovoltaic （PV） device. Power conversion efficiency achieved from the device was 1.04% under illumination with 365 nm UV light at 1.6 mW/cm^2. Compared with the previous reported devices based on Eu（Ⅲ） complexes, the PV performances were improved. The working mechanism of the organic PV device was discussed.     

Highly Selective Salicylate Membrane Electrode Based on N,N＇- （Aminoethyl）ethylenediamide Bis（2-salicylideneimine） Binuclear Copper（Ⅱ） Complex as Neutral Carrier

A new ion selective electrode for salicylate based on N,N＇-（aminoethyl）ethylenediamide bis（2-salicylideneimine） binuclear copper（Ⅱ） complex [Cu（Ⅱ）2-AEBS] as an ionophore was developed. The electrode has a linear range from 1.0 × 10^-1 to 5.0 ×10^-7 mol·L^- 1 with a near-Nemstian slope of （ - 55 ±1 ） mV/decade and a detection limit of 2.0 × 10-7 mol·L^-1 in phosphorate buffer solution of pH 5.0 at 25 ℃. It shows good selectivity for Sal^- and displays anti-Hofmeister selectivity sequence： Sal^-〉SCN^-〉 ClO4^- 〉I^-〉 NO2^- 〉Br^-〉 NO3^- 〉Cl^-〉 SO3^2- 〉 SO4^2- The proposed sensor based on binuclear copper（Ⅱ）complex has a fast response time of 5-10 s and can be used for at least 2 months without any major deviation. The response mechanism is discussed in view of the alternating current （AC） impedance technique and the UV-vis spectroscopy technique. The effect of the electrode membrane compositions and the experimental conditions were studied. The electrode has been successfully used for the determination of salicylate ion in drug pharmaceutical preparations.     

Solution Structure and Behavior of Benzophenone-based Achiral Bisphosphine Ligands in Noyori-Type Ru（Ⅱ）-Catalysts

We herein report on solution structural studies of Ru^Ⅱ catalysts （3a, 9） composed of achiral bisphosphine ligands （4, 8） and the enantiopure 1,2-diphenylethylenediamine （DPEN）. Complete chiral induction from enantiopure （R,R）-DPEN to achiral bisphosphine ligand 3a was observed in solution, with the complex adopting a single, stable and non-fluxional （even at 70 ℃） configuration. The coordination of the C=O moiety in 4 to the cationic Run center is considered to be of key importance in providing the higher thermodynamic and kinetic rotation barrier for the flexible bisphosphine ligand in the complex. The obtained enantioselectivity （91% enantiomeric excess） and sense of chiral induction in the hydrogenation of acetophenone were found to be solely dependent on the chirality of the 1,2-diamine. Consistent with the hydrogenation product, the （R,R）-DPEN induces a M-conformation （fight-handed） chirality for flexible phosphine ligand 4 in the complex, resulting in a 2,2-configuration about the Ru^Ⅱ center.     

Spectroscopic study on the interaction between[Hg（SCN）4]2- and hemoglobin

The interaction between[Hg（SCN）₄]^2- and hemoglobin（Hb） under conditions that simulate a physiological environment was investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy,fluorescence spectroscopy,resonance Rayleigh scattering（RRS） spectroscopy and circular dichroism（CD） spectroscopy.The results obtained from the change of UV-vis and CD spectra,the quenching of Hb fluorescence and the enhancement of RRS intensity proved that a 10:1 type complex was formed between[Hg（SCN）₄]^2- and Hb.The possible mechanism suggested for the interaction was that ten Hg（SCN）₄]^2- anions entered the four subunits of a Hb molecule to react with some residues to form an adduct by coordination and electrostatic forces.The coordination of[Hg（SCN）₄]^2- with Trp was the major cause of the fluorescence quenching of Hb.     

Synthesis and Structure Characterization of Aqua-（μ2-carbonato-O,O′）-（2,2′-bipyridyl）-copper（Ⅱ） Dihydrate

Under hydrothermal conditions the reaction of cis-aconitic acid with Cu2(OH)2CO3 and bipy (bipy = 2,2'-bipy) in H2O/DMF (3:2) afforded a neutral mononuclear compound [Cu- (bipy)((2-CO3)(H2O)](2H2O, which has been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal belongs to triclinic, space group Pī with a = 8.3950(5), b = 8.7974(5), c = 9.4496(3)（A。）, α = 98.270(3), β = 93.014(3), γ = 100.068(3)°, V = 677.83(6) （A。）3, Dc = 1.635 g/cm3, Z = 2, C11H14CuN2O6, Mr = 333.78, μ = 1.637 mm－1, λ(MoKα) = 0.71073 （A。）, F(000) = 342, the final R = 0.0616 and wR = 0.1273 for 1621 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). The structure of the complex contains a distorted square pyramidal core with a bipy, a carbonate anion and a water molecule coordinating to a CuⅡ atom. The dihedral angle between the two planes composed of N(1)N(2)Cu(1) and O(1)O(3)Cu(1) is 21.73(8)°. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds (O…O) are observed in the crystal structure.     

Infrared Photodissociation Spectroscopy of Ti＋（CO2）2Ar and Ti＋（CO2）n （n=3-7） Complexes

Ti＋（CO2）2Ar and Ti＋（CO2）n （n=3-7） complexes are produced by laser vaporization in a pulsed supersonic expansion. The ion complexes of interest are each mass-selected in a time- of-flight spectrometer, and studied with infrared photodissociation spectroscopy. For each complex, a sharp band in the CO stretching frequency region is observed, which confirms the formation of the OTi＋CO（CO2）~_l oxide-carbonyl species. Small OTi＋CO（CO2）~_1 complexes （n_〈5） exhibit CO stretching and antisymmetric CO2 stretching vibrational bands that are blue-shifted from those of free CO and CO2. The experimental observations indicate that the coordination number of CO and CO2 molecules around TiO＋ is five. Evidence is also observed for the presence of another electrostatic bonding Ti＋（CO2）2 structural isomer for the Ti＋（CO2）2Ar complex, which is characterized to have a bent OCO-Ti＋-OCO structure stabilized by argon coordination.     

Spacial Structure of Cationic Phosphorus Ligand-Ru （Ⅱ） Halide Complexes-by DFT Study

The full-parameter geometry optimization of cationic （ S ） - BINAP - Ru （ Ⅱ ） halide complex was performed by DFT method using B3LYP, PW91 and PBE potentials with several basis sets. PW91 with 3-21G / SDD basis sets is found to be the most suitable method with consideration of both precision and efficiency. The dihedral angles （ θ ） of the binaphthyl or biphenyl with different phosphorus ligand - Ru （ Ⅱ ） halide complexes were found changing from 59.9 to 79.3 degree, while the natural bite angle （ βn ） of those complexes only changes from 87.4 to 90.3 degree. It is different from the common view of asymmetric organic chemists＇ that θ directly influences βn.     

Synthesis of Fullerene-end Functionalized Poly（methyl methacrylate） via Reverse Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization

The use of the reverse atom transfer radical polymerization （RATRP） to end-functionalize poly（methyl methacrylate） （PMMA） with fullerenes, e.g. C60 and C70 was described in this paper. The Cl-terrninated PMMA was prepared via RATRP with designed molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distributions, and then directly used to react with fullerenes to produce C60（C70） terminated PMMA polymers in the presence of CuBr/Cu/bipy or FeCl2/bipy catalysts. The resultant polymers exhibit good solubility in some common organic solvents, e.g. THF, CHCl3 and toluene, and were well structurally characterized by a variety of physical techniques.
