A Clean Synthesis of 1,4‐Diarylquinoline Derivatives Catalyzed by TEBAC in Aqueous Media

A series of 1,4‐diarylquinoline derivatives were synthesized by the reaction of arylmethylidenemalononitriles or 2‐cyano‐3‐aryl‐1‐acrylate and 3‐arylamino‐5,5‐dimethylcyclohex‐2‐enone in aqueous media at 100 °C catalyzed by TEBAC. Meanwhile, the water medium was chosen as green solvent.     

Flexible all-biomass gas sensor based on doped carbon quantum dots/nonwoven cotton with discriminative function

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) co-doped with N, P and S derived from expired milk was prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. By dipping pure cotton face towel (PCFT) into CQDs ink, a flexible all-biomass CQDs/PCFT sensor was prepared for the first time. Due to the heteroatom doping, extremely small particle size of CQDs and excellent permeability of CQDs/PCFT film, the flexible CQDs/PCFT sensor showed the high sensitivity and bending stability. In the range of 0–60° bending states, the responses of CQDs/PCFT sensor to four target analytes changed by less 5.0%. After 3000 bending of 60°, the maximum change of the response to the target analytes was only 6.4%. Interestingly, due to the abundant functional groups and defects of CQDs, the flexible CQDs/PCFT sensor displayed sensing curves of different shapes for different target analytes. In this way, by establishing a database of sensing curves of target analytes, multiple analytes can be detected discriminatively by relying only on single sensor with the help of image recognition. This work provided a reference for the development of cotton fiber based all biomass flexible gas sensor.

锆助剂对低温液相合成甲醇用铜铬硅催化剂性能的影响

考察了含锆的铜铬硅催化剂低温液相合成甲醇性能，并进行了BET、TPR-H2、TPD-H2、TPD-CO、XRD和XPS表征。结果表明，锆作为结构助剂及电子助剂对催化剂在低温液相合成甲醇反应中具有显著的促进作用，反应活性可提高32.25 ％。锆助剂能有效提高催化剂的比表面积，促进催化剂中铜铬组分的分散及表面富集。ZrO2加入在催化剂表面产生的Cu+与催化活性的改善密切相关，Zr4+、Cr3+、Cu+可形成复合中心，为价态的稳定性提供微环境，在H2活化及C O键的断裂等反应步骤中起重要作用。

Charge-discharge Behavior of Surface-coated LiMn2O3.95F0.05 Cathode Materials at High Temperature

With inorganic salts such as LiNO3, Li2CO3, surface-coated LiMn2O3.95F0.05 were prepared by melt-impregnation method. When these surface-coated LiMn2O3.95F0.05 were used as cathode materials, their charge-discharge characters were carefully compared. As a result, they exhibited good charge-discharge properties at 50℃ high temperature. Especially, LiNO3 surface-coated LiMn2O3.9F50.05 retained nearly 80% initial reversible capacity after 130 cycles at 50℃.     

(Z)‐1‐Ferrocenyl‐3‐(3‐hydroxy­anilino)­but‐2‐en‐1‐one and (Z)‐1‐ferrocenyl‐3‐(4‐hydroxy­anilino)­but‐2‐en‐1‐one

The title compounds, both [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₅H₁₄NO₂)], crystallize with Z′ = 2 in the centrosymmetric space group P. In each compound, there is an intra­molecular N—H⋯O=C hydrogen bond, and pairs of inter­molecular O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains, parallel to [10] in the 3‐hydr­oxy compound and parallel to [10] in the 4‐hydr­oxy compound.     

Synthesis,characterization and biological activity of some 1,2,4‐triazine derivatives

4‐Amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐(2H)‐thioxo‐5‐(4H)‐oxo‐1,2,4‐triazine ( 1 ) was condensed with 2‐methyl (or phenyl)‐4H‐3,1‐benzoxazin‐4‐one ( 5a,b ) in boiling acetic acid to give compounds 8‐11 . Reacting 1 with chloroacetyl chloride afforded the corresponding chloroacetamido and triazinothiadiazine derivatives 12 and 13 . Condensing 2 with succinic anhydride and/or phthalic anhydride yielded compounds 14 and 15 . Benzoylation of 4‐amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐(2H)‐thioxo‐5‐(4H)‐oxo‐2‐(2,3,4,5‐tetra‐O‐acetyl‐α‐D‐glucopyra‐nosyl)‐1,2,4‐triazine ( 19 ) afforded the corresponding 4‐N,N‐dibenzoyl derivative 20 . Deblocking of the N‐2 glycoside 21 and the S‐glycoside 22 by methanolic ammonia gave compounds 23 and 24 . Acetylation of 4‐amino glycoside 25a afforded the corresponding 4‐mono‐ and 4‐diacetyl derivatives 26 and 27 . Deamination of 25a,b yielded compounds 28a,b .

Correlation between Solution and the Solid State: The pH Dependent Composition in the Ternary System [Co(H2O)6]2+ or [Ni(H2O)6]2+/Piperazine/Phosphate

The protolytic equilibria of piperazine (C₄H₁₀N₂) and phosphate have been investigated in the presence of cobalt or nickel chloride or nitrate by potentiometric titrations between pH 2 and 8. Potentiometric titrations suggest the presence of [M²⁺(H₂O)₅(C₄H₁₁N₂⁺)]³⁺ and [M²⁺(H₂O)₅(C₄H₁₀N₂)]²⁺ in solution with stability constants logK of 3.1 and 3.8 for M = Co and 3.1 and 3.6 for M = Ni, respectively. Crystallization experiments were then conducted at selected pH values to isolate desired species from the known solution composition. Crystallization afforded [M(H₂O)₆]²⁺(C₄H₁₂N₂²⁺)(HPO₄^2—)₂ at pH 3.5 and 6.2 (M = Co, Ni), and Co₃(PO₄)₂·8H₂O at pH 10.5. No crystals with the dihydrogenphosphate anion or a metal‐bound piperazine ligand could be isolated under the reaction conditions. The solid‐state assembly in the isomorphous structures of [M(H₂O)₆](C₄H₁₂N₂)(HPO₄)₂ with M = Co and Ni is based on an extended hydrogen bonded network between the three ionic building blocks.     

Spectroscopic characterization and preparation of low molecular,water‐soluble chitosan with free‐amine group by novel method

Low molecular, water‐soluble chitosan (LMWSC) with a free amine group was prepared by the novel salts‐removal method described in this study. A weight‐average molecular weight and degree of deacetylation (DDA) of LMWSC were determined by viscometry and Kina titration, resulting in 18,579 Da and 93% DDA, respectively. In the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectra the absorption band by the carboxyl group derived from lactic acid and the impurities formed in the enzymatic process disappeared or were significantly lower than that of the control chitosan. Also, from the ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra the empirical value for the area ratio of the proton and carbon corresponds nearly to its theoretical values. The matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrum identified the difference in the two adjacent peaks as 161. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
