Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have emerged as crucial players in catalysis research, prompting extensive investigation and application. The precise control of metal atom nucleation and growth has garnered significant attention. In this study, we present a straightforward approach for preparing SACs utilizing a photocatalytic radical control strategy. Notably, we demonstrate for the first time that radicals generated during the photochemical process effectively hinder the aggregation of individual atoms. By leveraging the cooperative anchoring of nitrogen atoms and crystal lattice oxygen on the support, we successfully stabilize the single atom. Our Pd1/TiO2 catalysts exhibit remarkable catalytic activity and stability in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, which was 43 times higher than Pd/C. Furthermore, we successfully depose Pd atoms onto various substrates, including TiO2, CeO2, and WO3. The photocatalytic radical control strategy can be extended to other single-atom catalysts, such as Ir, Pt, Rh, and Ru, underscoring its broad applicability. 相似文献
Fast atom bombardment mass spectra of a series of arenediazonium salts with various substituents complexed with 18-crown-6 and dibenzo-24-crown-8 ethers were examined. The correlation between quasi-molecular ion abundance of various complexes and the properties, coordination ability of donor-acceptor linkages in the complexes were studied. By using molecular orbital calculation we have successfully demonstrated that the correlation cited is related to the electron cloud densities on the heteroatoms α-N and β-N of arenediazonium salts. 相似文献
A new asymmetric Salamo‐based ligand H2L was synthesized using 3‐tert‐butyl‐salicylaldehyde and 6‐methoxy‐2‐[O‐(1‐ethyloxyamide)]‐oxime‐1‐phenol. By adjusting the ratio of the ligand H2L and Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) ions, mononuclear, dinuclear, and trinuclear transition metal (II) complexes, [Cu(L)], [{Co(L)}2], and [{Ni(L)(CH3COO)(CH3CH2OH)}2Ni] with the ligand H2L possessing completely different coordination modes were obtained, respectively. The optical spectra of ligand H2L and its Cu (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) complexes were investigated. The Cu (II) complex is a mononuclear structure, and the Cu (II) atom is tetracoordinated to form a planar quadrilateral structure. The Co (II) complex is dinuclear, and the two Co (II) atoms are pentacoordinated and have coordination geometries of distorted triangular bipyramid. The Ni (II) complex is a trinuclear structure, and the terminal and central Ni (II) atoms are all hexacoordinated, forming distorted octahedral geometries. Furthermore, optical properties including UV–Vis, IR, and fluorescence of the Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) complexes were investigated. Finally, the antibacterial activities of the Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) complexes were explored. According to the experimental results, the inhibitory effect was found to be enhanced with increasing concentrations of the Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) complexes. 相似文献
Molecular bulks are favorable for the thermal and morphological stability in organic wide-bandgap semiconducting polymers with potential applications in both information and energy electronics. In this review, we present our progress in the design of fluorene-based bulky semiconductors with a fractal four-element pattern. Firstly, we established one-pot methods to spirofluorenes, especially spiro[fluorene-9,9′-xanthene](SFX) serving as the next-generation spiro-based semiconductors. Secondly, we observed the supramolecular forces at the bulky groups and discovered the supramolecular steric hindrance(SSH) effect on polymorphisms, nanocrystals as well as device performance. Thus, a synergistically molecular attractor-repulsor theory(SMART) was proposed for the control of nanocrystal morphology, thin film phase and morphology. Thirdly, the third possible type of defects has been identified to generate green band(g-band) emission in widebandgap semiconductors by the introduction of molecular strain design of cyclofluorene. Finally, the first bulky polydiarylfluorene with highly crystalline and β conformation was achieved by an attractor-repulsor design of tadpole-shape monomer, which offered an effective platform to fabricate stable wide-bandgap semiconducting devices. All the discoveries offer the solid basis to break through bottlenecks of organic/polymer wide-bandgap semiconductors by the improvements of overall performances. 相似文献
Herein we discovered that a Nile Red-based probe with a cinnamoyl unit was highly selective and sensitive to N2H4. Hydrazinolysis by N2H4 would release a hydroxyl substituted Nile Red and result in remarkable fluorescence quench. Importantly, Cys/Hcy would not interrupt the N2H4 recognition. This is because, for this probe, the combination of the π-π conjugate system can stabilize the ethylene union, which results in the nucleophilic addition of the thiol group of Cys/Hcy becomes non-effective. 相似文献
The paper investigates preparation and mechanical performances of a composite ceramic coating reinforced by graphene and multi-walled carbon nanotube. The carbon nanotube is functionalized with the carboxyl functional group (–COOH) and un-functionalized with sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). The structure of the functionalized and hybrid-functionalized carbon nanotube is identified using infrared spectroscopy (FTIR analysis). The coating is brushed on the matrix and then cures under temperature lower than 250°C. The morphological and cross section features are studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The distributions of hardness and fracture toughness are determined using a microhardness tester. The adhesive strength is evaluated using a universal tensile tester. The tribological properties are detected using friction wear testing machine. The experimental results show that the structure of the composite coating is compact, and both graphene and hybridtreated carbon nanotube are well dispersed. Addition of 0.2 wt % graphene and 0.2 wt % hybrid-functionalized carbon nanotube results in a prominent increase in hardness and fracture toughness. Meanwhile, the adhesive strength between the composite coating and the metallic substrate is well improved due to the high tensile strength of both graphene and carbon nanotube. Compared with pure alumina coating, the friction coefficient as well as the wear depth and width of grinding crack of the composite coating is much lower.
Organic phosphorescence materials demonstrate potential optoelectronic applications due to their remarkably ultralong organic phosphorescence (UOP) lifetime and abundant optical characteristics prior to the fluorescence materials. For a better insight into the intrinsic relationship among regioisomeric molecules, crystalline interactions, and phosphorescence properties, three crystalline dicarbazol-9-yl pyrazine-based regioisomers with para-, meta-, and ortho-convergent substitutions (p-DCzP, m-DCzP, and o-DCzP) were designed and presented gradually increased UOP lifetimes prolonging from 63.14, 127.93 to 350.46 ms, respectively, due to the regioisomerism effect (RIE) which would be an effective strategy for better understanding of structure-property of UOP materials. 相似文献
