The Linear Optical Unambiguous Discrimination of Hyperentangled Bell States Assisted by Time Bin

A linear optical unambiguous discrimination of hyperentangled Bell states is proposed for two‐photon systems entangled in both the polarization and momentum degrees of freedom (DOFs) assisted by time bin. This unambiguous discrimination scheme can completely identify 16 orthogonal hyperentangled Bell states using only linear optical elements, where the function of the auxiliary entangled Bell state is replaced by time bin. Moreover, the possibility of extending this scheme for distinguishing hyperentangled Bell states in n DOFs is discussed, and it shows that $2^{n+k+1}$ hyperentangled Bell states in n ( $n\ge 2$) DOFs can be distinguished with k ( $k<n$) auxiliary entangled states of additional DOFs by introducing a time delay, which decreases the auxiliary entanglement resource required for unambiguous discrimination of hyperentangled Bell state. Therefore, this scheme provides a new way for distinguishing hyperentangled states with current technology, which will extend the application of discrimination of hyperentangled states via linear optics to other quantum information protocols besides hyperdense coding schemes in the future.     

An optimal perturbation bound

Cai and Zhang establish separate perturbation bounds for distances with spectral and Frobenius norms (Cai T, Zhang A. Rate‐optimal perturbation bounds for singular subspaces with applications to high‐dimensional statistics. The Annals of Statistics. 2018; Vol. 46, No. 1: 60?89). We extend their theorem to each unitarily invariant norm. It turns out that our estimation is optimal as well.     

Nondestructive rare earth element imaging of fish teeth from deep‐sea sediments

X‐ray fluorescence computed tomography is an emerging imaging modality that allows for the nondestructive reconstruction of the internal distribution of elements within a sample. The common use of X‐ray excitation energy (up to approximately 20 keV) has necessitated the use of l ‐shell fluorescence for heavy elements. In this study, based on high energy X‐ray at BL13W1 of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility, we employed high‐energy excitation for tomographic imaging of the heavy metals (rare earth elements) in fish teeth from deep‐sea sediments on the micrometer scale using K‐shell X‐ray fluorescence. The virtual cross‐sectional distribution of La, Ce, Pm, Pr, Nd, and Sm were obtained, thereby providing a feasible approach for analyzing the enrichment mechanism of rare earth elements.

The non-covalent bindings of CF2Cl2 with NO and SO2

Ab initio calculations have been performed on the complexes of CF₂Cl₂ with NO and SO₂, and a set of stable configurations for CF₂Cl₂–NO and CF₂Cl₂–SO₂ were found with no imaginary frequencies by the MP2 method. In addition, the binding energy and the NBO analysis were used to evaluate the relative stability of the complexes. The calculated results indicate that the weak interactions in the CF₂Cl₂–NO and CF₂Cl₂–SO₂ systems involved are enhanced with the increase of the number of non-covalent bonds. Further studies predict that the CF₂Cl₂–SO₂ system may play a more important role than the CF₂Cl₂–NO system in environmental problem because the former offers a stronger interaction than the latter. Furthermore, the non-covalent binding interactions of Cl···N and Cl···O for CF₂Cl₂–NO system, Cl···O, Cl···S and F···S for CF₂Cl₂–SO₂ system, are the dominant forces, which seem to be very significant as a driving force influencing the arrangement of molecules, especially in CF₂Cl₂–SO₂ system.     

Novel Method for Soluble‐Polymer‐Supported Synthesis of 3,4,5‐Trisubstituted Isoxazoles

A practical and efficient liquid‐phase synthesis of 3,4,5‐trisubstituted isoxazoles using poly(ethylene glycol) as supported is described. Soluble‐polymer‐supported nitrile oxide generated in situ reacted with chalcones to afford polymer‐supported isoxazolines, which were cleaved by sodium methoxide to generate 3,4,5‐trisubstituted isoxazoles instead of 3,4,5‐trisubstituted isoxazolines. This sequential process provided a novel method to synthesize 3,4,5‐trisubstituted isoxazoles.     

A cytotoxic dimeric furanoheliangolide from Piptocoma rufescens

A new sesquiterpene lactone, rufescenolide C (1), the first furanoheliangolide dimer, was isolated from the leaves of Piptocoma rufescens, collected in the Dominican Republic. Its structure was determined by interpretation of its spectroscopic data, with the absolute configuration being established by analysis of the CD spectrum. A plausible biogenesis of this dimer is proposed. This compound showed potent cytotoxicity with an IC₅₀ value of 150 nM, when tested against HT-29 human colon cancer cells.     

Mechanism of α-acetyl-γ-butyrolactone synthesis

The mechanism of α-acetyl-γ-butyrolactone (ABL) synthesis from γ-butyrolactone (GBL) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc) was explored by detecting the material changes involved and the enthalpies of formation of the synthons, products, and possible intermediates were calculated using the density functional theory. GBL forms a carbanion of γ-butyrolactone by losing an α-H under strongly alkaline conditions. ABL is then obtained via two reaction mechanisms. One of the reaction mechanisms involves direct reaction of the carbanion of GBL with EtOAc to produce ABL. The other involves the formation of a carbanion of α-(2-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-γ-butyrolactone through the reaction of two molecules of GBL, and the subsequent combination of this anion with EtOAc to produce ABL. ABL is thus formed through the above two kinds of competitive ester condensation reactions. It is unnecessary to take into account synthons’ local thickness, and their self-condensation under these conditions. Both reactions of the carbanion of GBL with EtOAc and GBL are exothermic, so the control of their reaction rate is the key to their security. Considering the reasons above, this work applied synthon as the solvent, and avoided environmental pollution by alkylbenzene; also, accidents such as red material and fire were avoided by specific surface area of sodium metal control. Effective isolation of the organic and aqueous phases was performed using the salting out method. Thus, an environmentally friendly, safe, simple, and efficient new method for the synthesis of ABL with the yield higher than 90 % has been established.
