Kinetics and Mechanism of the Oxidation of Glycol by Dihydroxyditelluratoargentate(Ⅲ) with Spectrophotometry

The kinetics of the oxidation of glycol by dihydroxyditelluratoargentate (Ⅲ) complex(DDA) was studied in alkaline medium with spectrophotometry(in a temperature range of 16.6-40 ℃).The first-order rates with respect to glycol and Ag(Ⅲ) were all found.The rates increased with the increase in [OH-] and decreased with the increase in [TeO2-4].No effect was found with the addition of KNO3 and no free radical was detected.In view of this,the dihydroxymonotelluratoargentate(Ⅲ) species(DMA) is assumed to be the active species.A plausible mechanism involving a two-electron transfer is proposed,and the rate equation derived from the mechanism can explain all experimental observations.Activation parameters of the rate-determining step and constants are evaluated.     

Theoretical studies of the reactions of O(~3p) with halogenated methyl (Ⅰ)——Reaction mechanism of the O(~3p) CH_2Cl reaction

The reaction of O(~3P) with CH_2Cl radical has been studied using ab initio molecular orbital theory. G2 (MP2) method is used to calculate the geometrical parameters, vibrational frequencies and energies of various stationary points on the potential energy surface. The reaction mechanism is revealed. The addition of O(~3P) with CH_2Cl leads to the formation of an energy rich intermediate OCH_2Cl which can subsequently undergo decomposition or isomerization to the final products. The calculated heat of reaction for each channel is in agreement with the experimental value. The production of H CHClO and Cl CH_2O are predicted to be the major channels. The overall rate constants are calculated using transition state theory on the basis of ab initio data. The rate constant is pressure independent and exhibits negative temperature dependence at lower temperatures, in accordance with the experimental results.     

Extraction chromatographic study of aluminium(III) and mutual separation of aluminium(III), gallium(III), indium(III) and thallium(III) with N-n-octylaniline

A selective method has been developed for extraction chromatographic studies of aluminium(III) and its separation from several metal ions with a chromatographic column containing N-n-octylaniline (liquid anion exchanger) coated on silanized silica gel as a stationary phase. The aluminium(III) was quantitatively extracted with the 0.065 mol/L N-n-octylaninine from 0.013 to 0.05 mol/L sodium succinate at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The extracted metal ion has been recovered by eluting with 25.0 mL of 0.05 mol/L hydrochloric acid and estimated spectrophotometrically with aurintricarboxylic acid. The effects of the acid concentration, the reagent concentration, the flow rate and the eluting agents have been investigated. The log-log plots of distribution coefficient (KdAl(III)) versus N-n-octylaniline concentrationin 0.005 and 0.007 mol/L sodium succinate gave theslopes 0.5 and 0.7 respectively and showed theprobable composition of theextracted species was 1:1 (metal to amine ratio) and the nature of extracted species is [RR''NH2+ Al succinate2-] org. .The extraction of aluminium(III) was carried out in the presence of various ions to ascertain the tolerance limit of individual ions. Aluminium(III) has been separated from multicomponent mixtures, pharmaceutical samples and synthetic mixtures corresponding to alloys. A scheme for mutual separation of aluminium(III), indium(III), gallium(III) and thallium(III) has been developed by using suitable masking agents. The method is fast, accurate and precise.     

Characterization of self-assembled monolayers of thiols on Au(111)

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of n-butanethiol, n-dodecanethiol and their equimolar mixture on Au(111) were prepared and characterized by ellipsometry, contact angle measurement, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Results revealed that these SAMs are oriented ultrathin films with the thickness of nanometer scale, and the SAMs were influenced by the molecular chain length, the lattice orientation and cleanliness of the substrates. The surface of the longer chain SAM is hydrophobic. The thicknesses of three SAMs of n-butanethiol, n-dodecanethiol and their mixture revealed by ellipsometry and XPS are about 0.59 - 0.67nm, 1.60- 1.69 nm and 1.23 - 1.32nm, respectively. AFM images further demonstrated that the SAM formed by the mixture has some microdomains with two different thicknesses.     

Reaction of Substituted Cyclopentadienyl-magnesium-Chloride with Carbonyl Compound ( Ⅰ )——Reaction of (1, 1-Dialkyl-3-Butenyl) Cyclopentadienyl-magnesium-chloride with Ketones

The substituted cyclopentadienyl-magnesium-chloride, obtained by exocyclic addition of 6,6-dialkylfulvene and allyl-magnesium-chloride, reacted with the ketone 3, the product was hydrolyzed and dehydrated to give the 2-(1 ,1-dialkyl-3-butenyl)-6,6-dialkyl-fulvene 5. The structure of 5 was determined by using the 1H NMR spectra of 5 and the adducts of 5 with tetracyanoethylene.     

Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of Glycol by Dihydroxydiperiodatonickelate ( Ⅳ )Complex in Aqueous Alkaline Medium

The kinetics of oxidation of glycol by dihydroxydiperiodato nickelate ( Ⅳ) complex (DDN) was studied by spectrophotometry in aqueous alkaline medium in a temperature range of 25-40℃. The reaction was found to be first order with respect to Ni( Ⅳ ) and also to be first order with respect to glycol. The rate increases with the increase in [OH ] and decreases with the increase in [IO-4], showing that dihydroxymonoperiodatonickelate ( Ⅳ )(DMN) is the reactive species of oxidant. Salt effect indicated that the reaction is of ion-dipole type. No free radical was detected. A mechanism of an inner-sphere two-electron transfer reaction involving a preequilibrium between DDN and DMN is proposed, and the rate equation derived from the mechanism can explain all experimental observations. Activation parameters of the rate-determing step and the equilibrium constants were calculated.     

A Study on the Preparation of Konjac Glucomannansilk Fibroin Composite Aerogels and Its Adsorption of Water Pollutant Cr(Ⅲ)

It is emergent to develop a green waste water adsorbent with high efficiency.Therefore,a type of low-cost,green and environmentally friendly konjac glucomannan(KGM)-silk fibroin(SF)composite aerogels were compounded via simple chemical grafting and vacuum freeze drying,and a study on its adsorption capacity was also conducted.The characterizations of FT-IR,SEM,XRD and DSC indicate that the modified aerogels show a porous network space structure and there is a strong hydrogen bond effect between the KGM and SF molecules,which improves the density,compressive strength and thermal stability of aerogel materials.The adsorption experiments show that KGM-SF aerogels can effectively adsorb the water pollutants Cr(Ⅲ)with a maximal adsorption capacity of 82 mg·g^-1.In addition,the adsorption isotherm and dynamic model analysis are used to elaborate the adsorption mechanism of KGM-SF aerogels and explain that the composite aerogels can be single molecule chemisorption.KGM-SF aerogels have potential adsorption capacity.     

Reaction mechanism and chemoselectivity of gold(Ⅰ)-catalyzed cycloaddition of 1-(1-alkynyl) cyclopropyl ketones with nucleophiles to yield substituted furans

The mechanisms of gold(Ⅰ)-catalyzed cycloaddition of 1-(1-alkynyl) cyclopropyl ketones with nucleophiles have been investigated using density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory.A polarizable continuum model(PCM) has been established in order to evaluate the effects of solvents on the reactions.The results of the calculations indicate that the first step of the catalytic cycle is the cyclization of the carbonyl oxygen onto the triple bond which forms a new and stable resonance structure of an oxonium ion and a carbocation intermediate.The subsequent ring expansion step results in the formation of the final product and regeneration of the catalyst.Furthermore,the regioselectivity and effect of substituents has been discussed,including an analysis of energy,bond length,and natural bond orbital(NBO) charge distributions in the rate-determining step.Our computational results are consistent with earlier experimental observations.     

Role of Microstructure and Spectrum Features on the Catalysis Effect of Ce_(1-x)(Nd_(0.5)Eu_(0.5))_xO_(2-δ) Solid Solutions

Nanosized Ce_(1-x)(Nd_(0.5)Eu_(0.5))xO_(2-δ) solid solutions(x = 0.00~0.20) were synthesized by means of hydrothermal method.Then the solid solutions were ball milled with Mg_2Ni and Ni powders for 20 h to get the Mg_2Ni–Ni–5 mol% Ce_(1-x)(Nd_(0.5)Eu_(0.5))xO_(2-δ) composites.The structures and spectrum characteristics of the Ce_(1-x)(Nd_(0.5)Eu_(0.5))xO_(2-δ) solid solutions catalysts were analyzed systemically.XRD results showed that the doped samples exhibited single phase of CeO_2 fluorite structure.The cell parameters and cell volumes were increased with increasing the doped content.Raman spectrum revealed that the peak position of F_(2g) mode shift to higher wavenumbers and the peak corresponding to oxygen vacancies were observed distinctly for the doped samples.UV-Vis technique indicated that the absorption peaks of Eu~(3+) and Nd~(3+) ions appeared; the bandgap energy was decreased linearly.The electrochemical and kinetic properties of the Mg_2Ni–Ni–5 mol% Ce_(1-x)(Nd_(0.5)Eu_(0.5))xO_(2-δ) composites were measured.The maximum discharge capacity was increased from 722.3 mA h/g for x = 0.00 to 819.7 mA h/g for x = 0.16,and the cycle stability S_(20) increased from 25.0%(x = 0.00) to 42.2%(x = 0.20).The kinetic measurement proved that the catalytic activity of composite surfaces and the hydrogen diffusion rate were improved for the composites with doped catalysts,especially for the composites with x = 0.16 and x = 0.20.The catalysis mechanism was analyzed from the point of microstructure and spectrum features of the Ce_(1-x)(Nd_(0.5)Eu_(0.5))xO_(2-δ) solid solutions.     

Extraction chromatographic separation of platinum(IV) from real samples and associated elements

 The extraction behavior of platinum(IV) was studied with N-n-octylaniline as a function of different parameters, such as pH, concentrations of weak acids, mineral acids, reagents and elution time. A selective method was developed for the extraction chromatographic studies of platinum(IV) and its separation from several metal ions with N-n-octylaniline (liquid anion exchanger) as a stationary phase on silica gel. The quantitative extraction of platinum(IV) was observed with 0.067 mol/L N-n-octylaniline and 0.015 mol/L ascorbic acid at pH 1.0. Metal ion was stripped from the column with water and determined spectrophotometrically with stannous chloride method. The proposed method is free from the interference of a large number of cations and anions. Platinum(IV) was separated from pharmaceutical preparations, alloys and synthetic mixtures. Mutual separation scheme was developed for platinum(IV), palladium(II) and gold(III). The log-log plot of N-n-octylaniline concentration versus the distribution ratio indicates that the probable extracted species is ［RR′NH+2 ］· Pt(C6H7O6)－3.     

Synthesis of N-(alkoxycarbonyl or alkoxycarbonyl-methyl-alkoxyphosphonyl)-α-amino-O,O-diphenyl phosphonates and their bioactivities

With phosphoric formic acid (PFA) and its analog,phosphonoacetic acid (PAA),as the lead compounds,α-amino phosphonates were introduced into PFA and PAA.The derivatives oi N-( alkoxycarbonyl-aikoxyphosphonyl)-α-arnino phosphonates (Ⅰ) and N-(alkoxycarbonyl-methyt-alkoxyphosphonyl)-α-amino phosphonates (Ⅱ) with the N-terminal of amino phosphonates bonding to phosphorus atom of PFA and PAA were synthesized via the reaction of the corresponding phosphonyl chloride with a-amino phosphonates in the presence of a base.The 31P NMK spectra of Ⅰ and Ⅱwere determined.It is found that the coupling constants 3Jpp with R3 being alkyl group were lower than those with R3 being (substituted) phenyl,and this result was discussed.The preliminary bioassay showed that some of the compounds Ⅰ and Ⅱhave better activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV).The inhibitory was higher than that of DHT (2,4-dioxyhexahydro-1,3,5-triazine).In addition,some of the compounds showed the activity against cancer cells.     

Inhibitory effect of H_(3 + x)PMo_(12－x)V_xO_(40)-Ton the self-polymerization of methyl methacrylate

In this work,a series of molybdovanadophosphoric heteropoly acid quaternary ammonium salts H_(3+x)PMo_(12 -x)V_xO40-T were synthesized and employed as a reaction inhibitor in the selfpolymerization of methyl methacrylate(MMA).The polymerization inhibition effect of H_(3+x)PMoPMo_(12 -x)V_xO40-T)with different number of vanadium atoms and reaction dosages was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).It shows that the inhibitory effect was improved with the increasing dosages of H_(3+x)PMoPMo_(12 -x)V_xO40-T),and the polymerization inhibition was also affected by the number of vanadium atoms in the H_(3+x)PMo_(12 -x)V_xO40-T .Furthermore,cyclic voltammograms(CV)was used to probe the mechanism of the inhibition reaction with H3+xPMo12xVxO40-T.The result of CV indicates that the inhibition reaction is an oxidation–reduction reaction.H_(3+x)PMo_(12 -x)V_xO40-T can react directly with the MMA monomer radicals,which eliminated the MMA monomers,and therefore the self-polymerization of the MMA can be effectively inhibited by H_(3+x)PMo_(12 -x)V_xO40-T.     

Stereochemistry of the coupling step in photo-S_(RN) 1 reaction

The ratio of endo toexo products determined by ~1H NMR and CD spectra was found to be 99:1. MNDO calculationsof the orbital parameters showed a favorable one-sided overlap of the enolate ion with the SOMO of arylradical. In addition, fragmentation of (ArX)~- was found to be related to the energy of SOMO of(ArX)~-.     

Effect of bovine serum albumin on the micellization of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymers in aqueous solutions by fluorescence spectroscopy

Effect of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on the temperature-dependent association behavior of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) block copolymers was investigated using pyrene fluorescence spectroscopy. The critical micellization temperature (CMT) of pluronics in aqueous solution was increased by the addition of BSA. A closed association model was used to obtain the standard free energies (△G0), enthalpies (△H 0), and entropies (△S 0) of micellization. The standard enthalpy and entropy of micellization for pluronic polymers in water were decreased with an increase of the BSA content. The more PPO component in the pluronic polymer, the higher the changed values of micellization enthalpy and entropy. The hydrophobic part of the pluronics, PPO, was responsible for the interaction between pluronics and BSA. Hydrophobic interaction between PPO and BSA was correlated to the alternation of the PPO-PPO interaction by the addition of BSA, which would shift the CMT toward higher temperature and alter the thermodynamic parameters of micellization for pluronics in aqueous solutions.     

Action mechanism of antioxidation and anticorrosion and molecular design for perfluoropolyether fluid additives (Ⅰ)——Action mechanism of additive and property of donating-accepting electron

The combination energy and chemical adsorption energy of N-substituted perfluoropoly-alkyletherphenylamide (PFPEA) additive to perfluoropolyalkylether oxygen radical (RfO.) and to Fe atom have been calculated by quantum chemical methods. Structural characteristics, action mechanism, property of donating-accepting electron and substituent effect for antioxidant and anticorrosive additive are investigated. It is found that HOMO of the additives is a π-molecular orbital with lone pair electron of heteroatom. The HOMO of PFPEA additive reacts with LUMO of Fe atom to result in chemical adsorption. The LUMO of additive can interact with the SOMO of RfO. and accept electron of RfO. to form stable addition product. The additives have the property of donating-accepting electron. The electron-releasing group, particularly, the phenyl group, introduced to N atom of phenylamide can increase the combination energy and chemical adsorption energy, and enhance the antioxidant and anticorrosive efficiency.

The forming of bleomycinA2-Cu(Ⅱ) cationic chelate and the interaction of the chelate with DNA have been investigated by using resonance Rayleigh scattering(RRS),molecular absorption and fluorescence spectra.The result shows that in aqueous solution,bleomycinA2(BLMA2) can react with Cu(Ⅱ) to form 1:1 cationic chelate which contributes to the changes of the absorption spectra and the quenched fluorescence of BLMA2.When the cationic chelate further bound with DNA to form ternary ion-association complexes,the r...     

Synthesis of Well-defined Poly(tetrahydrofuran)-b-Poly(α-amino acid)s via Cationic Ring-opening Polymerization(ROP) of Tetrahydrofuran and Nucleophilic ROP of N-thiocarboxyanhydrides

The synthesis of block copolymers of poly(tetrahydrofuran)-b-poly(α-amino acid)(PTHF-b-PAA) is challenging since it is difficult to combine the two blocks produced via different/conflicting ring-opening polymerization(ROP) mechanisms. In this contribution, the cationic ROP of THF is catalyzed by rare-earth triflate [RE(OTf)_3] and terminated by 2-(t-butyloxycarbonyl-amino) ethanol(BAE). After the deprotection of tbutyloxycarbonyl(Boc) group, the chain end of PTHF is quantitatively changed to amino group which thereafter initiates the nucleophilic ROP ofα-amino acid N-thiocarboxyanhydrides(NTAs). Both polymerizations are well controlled, generating PTHF and PAA segments with designable molecular weights(MWs). PTHF-b-polylysine(PTHF-b-PLys) and PTHF-b-polysarcosine(PTHF-b-PSar) are obtained with MWs between 8.6 and28.7 kg/mol. The above amphiphilic diblock copolymers form micelles in water. PTHF_(40)-b-PSar_(32) acts as a surfactant to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions. Both segments of PTHF-b-PAA are biocompatible and promising in the biomedical application.

Phase Evolution and Magnetic Properties of Sn_(1-2x)Fe_xNb_xO_2(0.45≤x≤0.50)

Sn1-2xFexNbxO2(0.45≤x≤0.50) samples were prepared at 1000 ℃ via a simple chemical co-precipitation method.The effects of the concentrations of Sn doped on the structures and magnetic properties of the samples have been investigated.A systematic variation from monoclinic to orthorhombic FeNbO4 structure was observed with increasing Sn content.The phase evolutions were observed from monoclinic structure with x=0.50 to the coexistence of monoclinic and orthorhombic structures with x=0.48,0.47,0.46,and then to orthorhombic structure with x=0.45.Antiferromagnetic behavior was observed for all the samples,and the magnetic ordering temperatures decrease with increasing Sn concentration,which further indicated the sequence of phase transitions.The results suggest that the incorporation of Sn can stabilize the orthorhombic FeNbO4.
