Room Temperature Sensing Achieved by GaAs Nanowires and oCVD Polymer Coating

Novel structures comprised of GaAs nanowire arrays conformally coated with conducting polymers (poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) or poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene‐co‐3‐thiophene acetic acid) display both sensitivity and selectivity to a variety of volatile organic chemicals. A key feature is room temperature operation, so that neither a heater nor the power it would consume, is required. It is a distinct difference from traditional metal oxide sensors, which typically require elevated operational temperature. The GaAs nanowires are prepared directly via self‐seeded metal–organic chemical deposition, and conducting polymers are deposited on GaAs nanowires using oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD). The range of thickness for the oCVD layer is between 100 and 200 nm, which is controlled by changing the deposition time. X‐ray diffraction analysis indicates an edge‐on alignment of the crystalline structure of the PEDOT coating layer on GaAs nanowires. In addition, the positive correlation between the improvement of sensitivity and the increasing nanowire density is demonstrated. Furthermore, the effect of different oCVD coating materials is studied. The sensing mechanism is also discussed with studies considering both nanowire density and polymer types. Overall, the novel structure exhibits good sensitivity and selectivity in gas sensing, and provides a promising platform for future sensor design.

     

Easy Room Temperature Synthesis of High Surface Area Anatase Nanowires with Different Morphologies

Anatase nanowires were synthesized in solution by using a simple mixing of titanium diisopropoxide bis(acetylacetonate), lactic acid and sodium hydroxide at room temperature. We discuss effects of reaction parameters and post treatment (annealing) on the nanowire morphology, surface area, and crystallinity, as well as the competing morphology directing effects of lactic acid and sodium hydroxide. Then the room temperature nanowires were directly grown onto fluoride doped tin oxide (FTO) glass to form photoanodes. Photoelectrochemical measurements of the different nanowires were performed and compared to conventional nanowires produced by high temperature synthesis. Clearly the nanowires introduced in this work show a significant increase in the maximum photocurrent, compared to classic hydrothermal nanowire layers.     

Selective Radical Fluorination of Tertiary Alkyl Halides at Room Temperature

Direct fluorination of tertiary alkyl bromides and iodides with Selectfluor is described. The halogen‐exchange fluorination proceeds efficiently in acetonitrile at room temperature under metal‐free conditions and exhibits a wide range of functional group compatibility. Furthermore, the reactions are highly selective in that alkyl chlorides and primary and secondary alkyl bromides remain intact. A radical mechanism is proposed for this selective fluorination.

2-Ketophenyl Assisted Biomimetic Synthesis of 3-Thio Substituted Glycals at Room Temperature

Herein we designed a strategy for the synthesis of regioselective and stereoselective displacement of C-3 acetate group in the presence of other C-4 and C-6 acetate of 2-ketophenyl-glycal by different aromatic and cyclic aliphatic thiol nucleophiles taking inspiration from cytosolic esterase mediated thiolation of glucosamine sugars into cellular glycan. Under a mild base condition at room temperature, the protocol generated a library of 3-arylthiosugars with excellent yields and high axial selectivity. This stereoselective approach tolerated well with different ester-protected glycals and thiophenols, aliphatic cyclic thiols, and mercaptans. A variety of control experiments were conducted to establish the mechanism and reason behind the stereoselectivity.     

Controlling the Selective Formation of Calcium Sulfate Polymorphs at Room Temperature

Calcium sulfate is a naturally abundant and technologically important mineral with a broad scope of applications. However, controlling CaSO₄ polymorphism and, with it, its final material properties still represents a major challenge, and to date there is no universal method for the selective production of the different hydrated and anhydrous forms under mild conditions. Herein we report the first successful synthesis of pure anhydrite from solution at room temperature. We precipitated calcium sulfate in alcoholic media at low water contents. Moreover, by adjusting the amount of water in the syntheses, we can switch between the distinct polymorphs and fine‐tune the outcome of the reaction, yielding either any desired CaSO₄ phase in pure state or binary mixtures with predefined compositions. This concept provides full control over phase selection in CaSO₄ mineralization and may allow for the targeted fabrication of corresponding materials for use in various areas.

Synthesis of a Novel Co-B/CTAB Catalyst via Solid-state-reaction at Room Temperature for Hydrolysis of Ammonia-borane

Cobalt-boride(Co-B) is emerging as one of the promising materials in the base-hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane(AB). In order to avoid the low specific area and poor catalytic capacity of Co-B catalyst caused by aggregation arising from the strong reducing property and rapid reaction condensation of sodium borohydride(NaBH₄), novel cobalt boride/cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(Co-B/CTAB) catalyst was obtained via solid-state grinding at room temperature, and the catalyst was further characterized by XRD, SEM, XPS and BET. The hydrogen generation rate(HGR) was then determined by the hydrolysis reaction of AB. The SEM images indicate that a lot of irregular folds and curled edges are formed on the sample with a maximum surface area of 145.57 m²/g, thus possibly resulting in the high hydrogen production(HGR was 10.68 L·min^-1·g^-1), which may be attributed to CTAB that provide favorable large specific surface area and abundant porous structure. Additionally, catalyst will not be affected by solvants during solid-state reaction. As a diluent, the surfactant CTAB hindered the reaction rate of sodium borohydride reduction to cobalt boride and obtained the novel catalyst with a large specific surface area.
