三(羟甲基)氨基甲烷改性SiO_2固载钯纳米粒子:合成、表征及其催化Heck偶联反应活性（英文）

The preparation of supported Pd nanoparticles on Tris(tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane)‐ modi‐fied Si O2 gel and their catalytic application in Heck coupling are investigated. The catalyst was char‐acterized using a combination of X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, field‐emission scanning electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy/energy‐dispersive X‐ray spec‐troscopy. The supported Pd nanoparticles were found to be a highly active and reusable catalyst for the Heck reaction at a low Pd loading(0.02 mol%) because of stabilization by the Tris moieties. Several reaction parameters, including the type and amount of solvent, base, and temperature, were evaluated. The heterogeneity of the catalytic system was investigated using different approaches, and showed that slight Pd leaching into the reaction solution occurred under the reaction condi‐tions. Despite this metal leaching, the catalyst can be reused seven times without significant loss of its activity.

A new strategy to access Co/N co-doped carbon nanotubes as oxygen reduction reaction catalysts

Carbon nanotubes(CNTs),as one-dimensional nanomaterials,show great potential in energy conversion and storage due to their efficient electrical conductivity and mass transfer.However,the security risks,time-consuming and high cost of the preparation process hinder its further application.Here,we develop that a negative pressure rather than a following gas environment can promote the generation of cobalt and nitrogen co-doped CNTs(Co/N-CNTs) by using cobalt zeolitic imidazolate framework(ZIF-67) as a precursor,in which the negative pressure plays a key role in adjusting the size of cobalt nanoparticles and stimulating the rearragement of carbon atoms for forming CNTs.Importantly,the obtained Co/N-CNTs,with high content of pyridinic nitrogen and abundant graphitized structure,exhibit superior catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) with half-wave potential(E_1/2) of 0.85 V and durability in terms of the minimum current loss(2%) after the 30,000 s test.Our development provides a new pathway for large-scale and cost-effective preparation of metal-doped CNTs for various applications.

SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF N,N‘-BIS(3-ALLYL SALICYLIDENE)ETHYLENEDIAMINE COBALT(II) SCHIFF BASE COMPLEX ANCHORED ON A NEW POLYMER SUPPORT

A new chelating polymer support has been prepared by suspension copolymeriz a tion of synthesized N,N‘-bis(3-allyl salicylidene)ethylenediamine monomer Schiff base (N,N‘-BSEDA) with styrene (St) and divinylbenzene (DVB) using azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator in the presence of poly(vinyl alcohol). The content and complexation ability of monomer Schiff base (N,N‘-BSEDA) for cobalt(II) ions in prepared crosslinked polymer beads have shown dependence on the amount of DVB used in reaction mixture. The amount of monomer Schiff base (N,N‘-BSEDA) in crosslinked beads showed a substantial decreasing trend at high concentration of DVB in the reaction mixture (＞ 1.5 mol dm-3), hence the efficiency of complexation (EC%) and cobalt(II) ion loading (EL%) of polymer beads showed a decreasing trend. The structure of monomer Schiff base (N,N‘-BSEDA) and its cobalt(II) complex on polymer support was elucidated by IR, UV and magnetic measurements. The catalytic activity of polymer bound cobalt(Ⅱ) Schiff base complex was evaluated by analyzing kinetic data of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of either supported cobalt (II) complex or free cobalt(II) complex. The activation energy for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by polymer supported cobalt(II)complex was found to be low (33.37 kJ mol-l) in comparison with unsupported cobalt(II) complex (56.35 kJ mol-1). On the basis of experimental observations, reaction steps are proposed and a suitable rate expression derived.

<正>The discovery of highly active 2,6-bis(imino)pyridyl iron and cobalt complexes provided a milestone of latetransition metal catalysts for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization with being currently investigated for the scale-up process.The crucial problems are remaining in the catalytic systems:the catalytic systems targeting ethylene polymerization produce more oligomers at elevated reaction temperatures,however,there is a recognizable amount of high-molecular-weight polyethylene remained in the modified catalytic system for the oligomerization process.Beyond the modification of bis(imino)pyridyl metal complexes,several alternative procatalysts' models have been developed in our group.This review highlighted the achievements in exploring new iron and cobalt complexes with tridentate NNN ligands as procatalysts for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization.

The catalytic property of propylene dimerization by several nickel (Ⅱ), cobalt (Ⅱ) complexes containing N-P bidentate ligands was studied in combination with organoaluminum co-catalysts. The effects of the type of aluminum co-catalysts and its relative amount, the nature of precursors in terms of ligand backbone and metal center were investigated. The results indicated that precursor I (N,N-dimethyl-2-(diphenylphosphino)aniline nickel (Ⅱ) dichloride) exhibited high activity in propylene dimerization in the presence of the strong Lewis acid Et3Al2Cl3, whereas low productivity by its cobalt analogues was observed under identical reaction conditions.     

Catalytic Kinetics of the Schiff Base Metal Complexes Bearing Side Chain of Cyclic morpholine in Carboxylic Ester Hydrolysis

It has been reported that two Schiff base transition metal complexes bearing the side chain of the morpholine ring were synthesized and characterized, and two complexes with the same base agent but different metal ions were used as a simulant hydrolase in the catalytic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl picolinate in this paper. The mechanism of PNPP catalytic hydrolysis is proposed and supported by the results of the spectral analysis and the kinetic calculation. A kinetic mathematical model, applied to the calculation of the kinetic and thermodynamics parameters of PNPP catalytic hydrolysis, has been established on the foundation of the mechanism proposed. The result of the study shows that the two complexes have a good catalytic activity in PNPP catalytic hydrolysis, and the rate of the PNPP catalytic hydrolysis was increased with the increase of the pH values in the buffer solution and affected by the polarization effect of metal ion of the complexes.     

Studies on PNPP Hydrolysis Catalyzed by Schiff Base Cobalt（Ⅱ） Complexes Containing Benzoaza-15-crown-5

Three novel Schiff base cobalt（Ⅱ） complexes containing benzoaza-15-crown-5, CoL^1, CoL^2 and CoL^3 were synthesized and characterized, and these complexes were used in catalytic hydrolysis of carboxylic ester （PNPP, p-nitrophenyl picolinate） as mimic hydrolytic metalloenzyme. The analysis of specific absorption spectra of the hydrolytic reaction systems indicated that the catalytic hydrolysis involved the key intermediates formed by PNPP with cobalt（Ⅱ） complexes. The CoL^3 bearing the electron withdrawing group shows better catalytic activity due to its stabilization effect on active species MLS^-. The catalytic mechanism of PNPP hydrolysis was also proposed. The kinetic parameter of PNPP catalytic hydrolysis has been calculated and the activation energy for the catalytic hydrolysis is 43.69, 39.76 and 35.44 kJ·mol^-1, respectively.

SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION OF IMIDAZOLATE-BRIDGED HETEROPOLY- NUCLEAR COMPLEXES AND THEIR ACTIVITY IN DISMUTATION OF O~(-)_(2)

A series of imidazolate-bridged heteropolynuclear complexes containing Cu2+ or Zn2+ were synthesized and characterized by reflectance spectroscopy, NMR and X-ray diffraction analysis. The bonding nature and the stability of imidazolate bridges in the complexes were studied by ESR spectroscopy, and the catalytic activity of the complexes in dismutation of O-2 was determined by NBT method. Results obtained indicate that the central Cu with N4 and N2O2 square planar or N4O square pyramidal coordination in which there is a weak bond H2O or ClO-4 on axial position, has a comparatively higher activity, but that with N5 square pyramidal having a strong bond axial ligand has almost no activity. Thus the results imply a possible formation of Cu-O-2 intermediate adduct in the catalytic process by Cu, Zn-SOD.

新的聚苯乙烯负载锌化合物:高效苯酚氧化催化剂(英文)

The novel recyclable free –ONNO– tetradentate Schiff base ligand N,N′‐bis(2‐hydroxy‐3‐ methox‐ybenzaldehyde)4‐methylbenzene‐1,2‐diamine (3‐MOBdMBn) was synthesized. Complexation of this ligand with zinc(3‐MOBdMBn‐Zn) was performed, and the catalytic activity of the complex was evaluated. The polymer‐supported analog of this complex(P‐3‐MOBdMBn‐Zn) was synthesized, and its catalytic activity was studied. These free and polymer‐anchored zinc complexes were prepared by the reactions of metal solutions with one molar equivalent of unsupported 3‐MOBdMBn or P‐3‐MOBdMBn in methanol under nitrogen. The catalytic activity of 3‐MOBdMBn‐Zn and P‐3‐MOBdMBn‐Zn was evaluated in phenol oxidation. The activity of P‐3‐MOBdMBn‐Zn was signif‐icantly affected by the polymer support, and the rate of phenol conversion was around 50% for polystyrene‐supported 3‐MOBdMBn. The experimental results indicated that the reaction rate was affected by the polymer support, and the rate of phenol conversion was 1.64 μmol/(L·s) in the presence of polystyrene‐supported 3‐MOBdMBn.
