An azido-Cu(II)-triazolate complex with utp-type topological network, showing spin-canted antiferromagnetism

An azido-metal-1,2,4-triazolate coordination polymer, [Cu(trz)(N(3))](n) (trz = 1,2,4-triazolate) was synthesized using hydrothermal methods; the complex has a rare three-dimensional non-interpenetrated utp or (10,3)-d topological network structure and exhibits spin-canted antiferromagnetism at low temperature.     

Magnetic canting or not? Two isomorphous 3D CoII and NiII coordination polymers with the rare non-interpenetrated (10,3)-d topological network, showing spin-canted antiferromagnetism only in the CoII system

The in situ solvothermal reaction of 3,4-dicyano-1,2,5-thiadiazole with MCl(2) (M = Co, Ni) and NaOH afforded two isomorphous complexes, [M2(L)2(H(2)O)2]n (L = 2,1,3-thiadiazole-4,5-dicarboxylate), which exhibit a rare non-interpenetrated (10,3)-d (utp) network topology and interesting magnetic behaviors: spin-canted antiferromagnetism for the Co(II) complex, but simple antiferromagnetic coupling for the Ni(II).     

Indirect amperometric measurement of electroosmotic flow rates and effective mobilities in microchip capillary electrophoresis

End-channel indirect amperometry is based on the principle of Kohlrausch regulating function (KRF). A dilute electroactive ionic species is added to the background electrolyte as a continuously eluting electrophore, which is used as probe. The probe concentration variation with the omega value of KRF in the sampling zone was described schematically in this report. Either cathodic or anodic electroosmotic flow (EOF) rates were monitored in microchip. There was no significant difference between the values of EOF rates measured by present method and current-monitoring method. Detection of electroactive and nonelectroactive analytes can also be accomplished by indirect amperometric method. Hence, the effective mobility of analytes can be accurately calculated. And the response mechanism of nonelectroactive analytes K(+), Na(+) and Li(+) in the indirect method was speculated.

EOF measurement by detection of a sampling zone with end-channel amperometry in microchip CE

A simple method for EOF measurement by detection of sampling zones with end-channel amperometry in microchip CE is developed. This method is based on the principle of the Kohlrausch regulating function (KRF). A dilute electroactive ionic species is added to the BGE as a continuously eluting electrophore which is used as a probe. When a BGE-like sample at a different concentration is injected, a peak of sampling zone appears and the migration time is related to EOF. In a microchip CE with hybrid PDMS/glass channel, a cathodic EOF of the hybrid glass/PDMS microchip was measured by end-channel amperometry; the effects of sample concentration and different probes on EOF rate were discussed. The present method was applied to monitor EOF rates in glass and in PDMS microchips. There was no significant difference between the values of EOF rates measured by the present method and the current-monitoring method. Detection of nonelectroactive analytes K(+), Na(+), and Li(+) can also be accomplished by the indirect amperometric method. Hence, the effective mobility of analyte can be accurately obtained.     

Practical Reference-Frame-Independent Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution Systems Against the Worst Relative Rotation of Reference Frames

Reference-frame-independent measurement-device-independent QKD (RFI-MDI-QKD), immune to both the slow unknown drift of reference frames and detector side channel attacks, can generate information-theoretic secure keys. Despite its natural resistance to the slow drift of reference frames, the performance of practical RFI-MDI-QKD systems descends with the increasing drift of reference frames. In this paper, we demonstrate the worst relative rotation of reference frames for practical RFI-MDI-QKD systems, and investigate their performance against the worst-case scenario, both of which are unclear to date. Simulation results show that, practical RFI-MDI-QKD systems can achieve quite good performance even against the worst-case scenario, which clearly demonstrates that it is possible to implement practical MDI-QKD systems with freely drifting reference frames.     

溶胶-凝胶法可控制备氧化锡纳米晶包覆碳纳米管

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了氧化锡纳米晶包覆的碳纳米管。自由Sn4+离子从稳定的Sn柠檬酸配合物中缓慢释放出来,迁移到碳纳米管上,并在碳纳米管上沉积形成了SnO2纳米晶,沉积过程完全为异相成核方式,在碳纳米管外并没有发现单独的SnO2纳米晶。这种溶胶-凝胶方法还可以用来制备无氯离子污染的、低团聚的纯SnO2纳米晶。

New Cembrane-Type Diterpenoids from the South China Sea Soft Coral Sinularia nanolobata

In the present study,nine new cembrane-type diterpenoids,namely ximaonanolobatins A—I(1—9),together with six related known analogs(10—15)and four known tetraprenylated alkaloids malonganenones D,E,H,and K(16—19)were isolated from the soft coral Sinularia nanolobata collected off the Ximao Island in the South China Sea.The structures of 1—9 were robustly established by a combination of detailed spectroscopic analyses,chemical reactions,quantum mechanical(QM)-NMR methods,biogenetic consideration,and the comparison with those literature data.The absolute configuration of 1 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis,and the absolute configuration of 2 was determined by QM-NMR calculations and chemical transformation.In addition,the absolute configuration of 3 was determined using the modified Mosher's method.All these isolates were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities.The results showed that only compound 15 exhibited potential anti-inflammatory effect against LPS-induced TNF-αrelease in RAW264.7 macrophages with an IC50 value of 12.6μmol/L.
