Exploring the Dual Characteristics of CH3OH Adsorption to Metal Atomic Structures on Si (111)-7 × 7 Surface

Metal atoms were deposited on an Si (111)-7 × 7 surface, and they were adsorbed with alcohol gases (CH₃OH/C₂H₅OH/C₃H₇OH). Initially, C_nH_2n+1OH adsorption was simply used as an intermediate layer to prevent the chemical reaction between metal and Si atoms. Through scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and a mass spectrometer, the C_nH_2n+1OH dissociation process is further derived as the construction of a surface quasi-potential with horizontal and vertical directions. With the help of three typical metal depositions, the surface characteristics of CH₃OH adsorption are more clearly presented in this paper. Adjusting the preheating temperature, the difference of thermal stability between CH₃O^– and H⁺ could be obviously derived in Au deposition. After a large amount of H⁺ was separated, the isolation characteristic of CH₃O^– was discussed in the case of Fe deposition. In the process of building a new metal-CH₃O^–-H⁺ model, the dual characteristics of CH₃OH were synthetically verified in Sn deposition. CH₃O^– adsorption is prone to influencing the interaction between the metal deposition and substrate surface in the vertical direction, while H⁺ adsorption determines the horizontal behavior of metal atoms. These investigations lead one to believe that, to a certain extent, the formation of regular metal atomic structures on the Si (111)-7 × 7-CH₃OH surface is promoted, especially according to the dual characteristics and adsorption models we explored.

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Heterocyclic Chalcones from 1-Phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3-ol

An efficient synthetic route to construct diverse pyrazole-based chalcones from 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3-ols bearing a formyl or acetyl group on the C4 position of pyrazole ring, employing a base-catalysed Claisen–Schmidt condensation reaction, is described. Isomeric chalcones were further reacted with N-hydroxy-4-toluenesulfonamide and regioselective formation of 3,5-disubstituted 1,2-oxazoles was established. The novel pyrazole-chalcones and 1,2-oxazoles were characterized by an in-depth analysis of NMR spectral data, which were obtained through a combination of standard and advanced NMR spectroscopy techniques.     

The Tannins from Sanguisorba officinalis L. (Rosaceae): A Systematic Study on the Metabolites of Rats Based on HPLC–LTQ–Orbitrap MS2 Analysis

Sanguisorba tannins are the major active ingredients in Sanguisorba ofJicinalis L. (Rosaceae), one of the most popular herbal medicines in China, is widely prescribed for hemostasis. In this study, three kinds of tannins extract from Sanguisorba officinalis L. (Rosaceae), and the metabolites in vivo and in vitro were detected and identified by high-pressure liquid chromatography, coupled with linear ion trap orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC–LTQ–Orbitrap). For in vivo assessment, the rats were administered at a single dose of 150 mg/kg, after which 12 metabolites were found in urine, 6 metabolites were found in feces, and 8 metabolites were found in bile, while metabolites were barely found in plasma and tissues. For in vitro assessment, 100 μM Sanguisorba tannins were incubated with rat liver microsomes, liver cytosol, and feces, after which nine metabolites were found in intestinal microbiota and five metabolites were found in liver microsomes and liver cytosol. Moreover, the metabolic pathways of Sanguisorba tannins were proposed, which shed light on their mechanism.     

Investigations on the electron paramagnetic resonance parameters for Mn2+ in the ABF3 fluoroperovskites

The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters (g factor, the hyperfine structure constant A and the superhyperfine parameters A' and B') for Mn(2+) in the fluoroperovskites ABF(3) (A=K and Cs; B=Zn, Mg, Cd and Ca) are theoretically investigated from the perturbation formulas of these parameters for a 3d(5) ion under ideal octahedra. In the above treatments, not only the crystal-field mechanism but also the charge transfer mechanism is considered uniformly on the basis of the cluster approach. The theoretical EPR parameters are in good agreement with the experimental data. The charge transfer contribution to the g-shift Δg (≈g-g(s), where g(s)≈2.0023 is the spin-only value) is opposite (positive) in sign and comparable in magnitude to the crystal-field one. Nevertheless, the charge transfer contribution to the hyperfine structure constant shows the same sign and about 10% that of the crystal-field one. So, the conventional argument that the charge transfer contributions to the zero-field splittings are negligible for 3d(5) ions under low symmetrically distorted fluorine octahedra is proved no longer valid for the Δg analysis of ABF(3):Mn(2+) in view of the dominant second-order charge transfer perturbation terms. The unpaired spin densities of the fluorine 2s, 2p σ and 2p π orbitals are determined from the quantitative dependences upon the related molecular orbital coefficients, rather than obtained by fitting the observed superhyperfine parameters in the previous works.     

A Novel Sensitive Biosensor for Ca2+ Ion Based on Gold Nanoparticles Modified Electrode by Pulsed Electrodeposition

The work demonstrates a simple method for sensitive detection of Ca²⁺ ion by electrochemical response of alizarin red S (ARS) and Ca-ARS at a gold nanoparticle modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). In the 0.1 M KOH, a sensitive reduction peak was observed at ?0.795 V at the gold nanoparticles modified electrode. The peak currents were proportional to the concentrations of Ca²⁺ ion in the range of 2.0 × 10^?7 M–1.2 × 10^?4 M. For the different pulse voltammetry (DPV) methods, the detection limit was 2.57 × 10^?8 M. The reaction mechanism was primarily determined by cyclic voltammetry, and the experimental results showed that the electrode processes were quasireversible responses of ARS and irreversible responses of ARS-Ca. In addition, the method was simple, fast, precise, and was used in the determination of calcium in blood serum with satisfactory results.     

Carbon Quantum Dots from Pomelo Peel as Fluorescence Probes for “Turn-Off–On” High-Sensitivity Detection of Fe3+ and L-Cysteine

This study designed a “turn-off–on” fluorescence analysis method based on carbon quantum dots (CQDs) to detect metal ions and amino acids in real sample systems. CQDs were derived from green pomelo peel via a one-step hydrothermal process. The co-doped CQDs with N and S atoms imparted excellent optical properties (quantum yield = 17.31%). The prepared CQDs could be used as fluorescent “turn-off” probes to detect Fe³⁺ with a limit of detection of 0.086 µM, a linear detection range of 0.1–160 µM, and recovery of 83.47–106.53% in water samples. The quenched CQD fluorescence could be turned on after adding L-cysteine (L-Cys), which allowed detection of L-Cys with a detection limit of 0.34 µM and linear range of 0.4–85 µM. Recovery of L-Cys in amino acid beverage was 87.08–122.74%. Visual paper-based testing strips and cellulose/CQDs composite hydrogels could be also used to detect Fe³⁺ and L-Cys.

Hydrogen bonding of different groups is also discussed.

A New Cationic Fluorescent Probe for HSO3− Based on Bisulfite Induced Aggregation Self-Assembly

In comparison with the numerous studies that have centered on developing molecular frameworks for the functionalization of fluorescent materials, less research has addressed the influence of the side chains, despite such appendages contributing significantly to the properties and applications of fluorescent materials. In this work, a new series of cationic fluorescent probes with AIE characteristics have been developed, which exhibit unique sensitivity for charge-diffusion anions, namely HSO₃⁻, via the interactions of ions and the cooperation of the controllable hydrophobicity. The impact of the alkyl chain length attached at the cationic probes suggested that the fluorescent intensity and sensitivity of the probes could be partially enhanced by adjusting their aggregation tendency through the action of the hydrophobic effect under aqueous conditions. DLS and SEM images indicated that different particle sizes and new morphologies of the probes were formed in the anion-recognition-triggered self-assembly process, which could be attributed to the composite effect of electrostatic actions, Van der Waals forces and π-π stacking.

Volatile Analysis of Wuliangye Baijiu by LiChrolut EN SPE Fractionation Coupled with Comprehensive GC×GC-TOFMS

Wuliangye baijiu is one of the most famous Chinese liquors with a protected geographical indication. This study used LiChrolut^® EN-based solid-phase extraction (SPE) and fractionation combined with comprehensive two-dimensional chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOFMS) to unveil its volatile composition. The volatiles were isolated with LiChrolut^® EN-based SPE and traditional liquid-liquid extraction (LLE). The neutral/basic fractions from LLE and the SPE were fractionated on a LiChrolut^® EN SPE column and analyzed by comprehensive GC×GC-TOFMS. Compared with LLE, more esters and alcohols were detected in the SPE-based extraction. The SPE fractionation and GC×GC-TOFMS analysis resulted in the identification of about 500 volatile compounds in more than 3000 peaks of the Wuliangye baijiu. The approach simplifies the complex baijiu composition into functional group-based fractions for reliable identification and analysis. This study provided a confidence volatile identification approach for Chinese baijiu based on the SPE fractionation GC×GC-TOFMS.
