Synthesis, crystal structures and properties of three new mixed-ligand d metal complexes constructed from pyridinecarboxylate and in situ generated amino-tetrazole ligand

Three new metal-organic frameworks, [Zn(atz)(nic)]_n(1), [Zn(atz)(isonic)]_n·nHisonic(2) and [Cd(atz)(isonic)]_n(3) (Hnic=nicotinic acid, Hisonic=isonicotinic acid), have been firstly synthesized by employing mixed-ligand of pyridinecarboxylate with the in situ generated ligand of 5-amino-tetrazolate(atz⁻), and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, TGA and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The results revealed that 1 presents a two-dimensional (2D) “sql” topological network constructed from the linear chain subunit of Zn(nic)₂ and atz⁻ ligand. A remarkable feature of 2 is a 2-fold interpenetrated diamondoid network with free Hisonic molecules locating in the channels formed by the zigzag chain subunits of Zn(isonic)₂. Complex 3 is a 3D non-interpenetrated pillared framework constructed from the double chain subunits of Cd-COO⁻-Cd. It possesses a rarely observed (4,6)-connected “fsc” topology. The thermal stabilities and fluorescent properties of the complexes were investigated. All of these complexes exhibited intense fluorescent emissions in the solid state at room temperature.     

Oxidative coupling of methane over Na-Mn-W/SiO2 catalyst at higher pressure

Na-Mn-W/SiO₂ catalysts were prepared and their catalytic performance for oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) was evaluated in a stainless-steel microreactor at elevated pressure. The results show that a CH₄ conversion of 15.1% with a C₂₊ selectivity of 71.8% was obtained under 750^oC, 1.0×10⁵h^-1 GHSV, CH₄/O₂ ratio of 8 and 1.0 MPa. Moreover, 17.3% CH₄ conversion with 51.6% C₂ selectivity and 23.6% C₃-C₄ selectivity was obtained under 750^oC, 2.0×10⁵h^-1 GHSV, CH₄/O₂ ratio of 8 and 1.0 MPa.     

Improving multicut in directed trees by upgrading nodes

In this paper, we consider the network improvement problem for multicut by upgrading nodes in a directed tree T = (V, E) with multiple sources and multiple terminals. In a node based upgrading model, a node v can be upgraded at the expense of c(v) and such an upgrade reduces weights on all edges incident to v. The objective is to upgrade a minimum cost subset S ⊆ V of nodes such that the resulting network has a multicut in which no edge has weight larger than a given value D. We first obtain a minimum cardinality node multicut V_c for tree T, then find the minimum cost upgrading set based on the upgrading sets for the subtrees rooted at the nodes in V_c. We show that our algorithm is polynomial when the number of source–terminal pairs is upper bounded by a given value.     

基于倒立摆模型的四足机器人对角步态规划

为提高点着地四足机器人在匀速对角小跑过程中的动态稳定性,将对角小跑过程简化为一个倒立摆模型。针对四足机器人对角小跑过程中由于重心无法始终处于支撑对角线上所引起的翻转,在此模型中转换为由于重心引起的摆动角误差。采用虚位移原理对机器人摆动角的变化进行分析,确定不同重心运动变化对摆动角误差的影响并找到合适的重心起始位置,理论上能够使摆动角的误差为零。动态仿真实验验证了所提出的对角步态规划能够使四足机器人实现稳定的对角小跑的有效性。     

A monoclonal antibody-based time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay for chloramphenicol in shrimp and chicken muscle

A time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TR-FIA) for determination of chloramphenicol (CAP) in shrimp and chicken muscle was developed. The method was based on a direct competitive immunoassay using europium-labeled anti-CAP monoclonal antibody (MAb) and CAP-ovalbumin as coated antigen. The limit of detection was 0.05 ng g⁻¹ and limit of quantification was 0.1 ng g⁻¹. Recoveries ranged from 101.2 to 112.5% for shrimp and 104.9 to 115.3% for chicken muscle at spiked levels of 0.1-5 ng g⁻¹, with intra-assay and inter-assay variations 8.7-14.6 and 9.6-17.8%, respectively. The results obtained by the TR-FIA and ELISA correlated well. The established TR-FIA was validated for the determination of incurred shrimp samples and confirmed by gas chromatography with microcell electron capture detector (GC-μECD).

Bulk polymerization of N-vinylcarbazole initiated by C60

In this communication, we first used [60]fullerene as initiator to initiate the bulk polymerization of N-vinylcarbazole (NVC) monomer at 70°C (slightly higher than the melting point temperature, 65°C, of NVC). A reasonable polymerization reaction pathway via C₆₀-NVC ion-radical pairs is suggested. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 37: 3745–3747, 1999     

Electrochemical characterization of boron-doped polycrystalline diamond thin-film electrodes

The electrochemical characterization of boron-doped polycrystalline diamond thin-film (BDF) electrodes was studied using the anodic scan after concentrating lead in 0.1 mol/L KCl - 41 micromol/L Hg(NO(3))(2) and 0.1 mol/L KNO(3) - 0.01 mol/L HNO(3) - 41 micromol/L Hg(NO(3))(2); accumulation voltage was -0.90 V. The results obtained were compared with those given by glassy carbon (GC) electrodes and proved that the BDF electrodes offered high sensitivity, good precision and extreme stability over a 2-month period. These electrodes provided good resolving power for the determination of lead and cadmium and gave satisfactory results in the analysis of a pure water sample.     

Synthesis of axially chiral C10-BridgePHOS oxides and their use as organocatalysts in enantioselective allylations of aldehydes

A series of C₁₀-BridgePHOS oxides possessing different substituted groups on the diphenyl phosphine system were synthesized and tested as organocatalysts in the allylation of aldehydes with allyltrichlorosilane, providing chiral homoallylic alcohols. These types of organocatalysts showed high catalytic activity and only 2 mol% catalyst loading was required to induce short reaction times. Under optimal reaction conditions, excellent product yields and up to 92% ee were obtained for a variety of substrates.     

Improved algorithm about NSFOT

For the purpose of further saving computing time, an improved algorithm about NSFOT is provided in this paper. That is, by introducing the simple operations such as preprocessing or after-processing, Haar and Walsh transforms are performed conveniently on the multiprocessor. As a result, one large size problem is divided into several small size sub-problems, load on every processor not only decreases greatly but also gets so uniform that much time is saved. Both the theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
