Properties and Characterization of Modified HZSM—5 Zeolites

Physicochemical and catalytic properties of phosphorus and boron modified HZSM-5 zeolites treated with 100% steam at 673K were investigated.The acidity and distribution of acidic sites were studied by infrared spectroscopy using pyridine as probe molecule and temperature programmed desortion (TPD) of ammonia.The structure of the samples was characterized by XRD,and the textural properties of the catalysts were determined by nitrogen isothermal adsorption-desorption measurements and scanning electron microscopy(SEM).The XRD results show that the modified samples have no novel crystalline phase,indicating a high dispersion of phosphorus and boron species.After treatment,the microporous volume and surface area of the samples markedly decrease,implying the bolockage of the channel.The nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements suggest that the isothermal type of all samples is a combination of isothermal type Ⅰ and Ⅳ，and all hysteresis loops resemble the H4-type in the IUPAC classification.The total acidity of the modified samples,determined by pyrldine adsorption IR and TPD of ammonia,decreases in contrast to that of the parent HZSM-5.The conversion of n-heptane over P and B steammodified HZSM-5 is higher than that of P and B-modified HZSM-5 zeolites but lower than that of the parent HZSM-5.     

Enantioselective iodolactonization catalyzed by chiral quaternary ammonium salts derived from cinchonidine

Chiral quaternary ammonium salts derived from cinchonidine have been applied to catalyze the stereoselective iodolactonizations of trans-5-aryl-4-pentenoic acids leading to a mixture of two regioselectively iodolactonized products with fair to excellent yield (37-98%) and moderate enantioselectivity (exo = 42.0% ee, endo = 31.0% ee) under mild conditions. This work is the first example of asymmetric iodolactonization reaction in the presence of less than a stoichiometric amount of chiral reagent.     

A novel selective fluorescent chemosensor for Cu（Ⅱ）

A novel fluorescence enhancement Cu~(2 ) chemosensor derived from coumarin was prepared.Emission study found that it exhibits evident Cu~(2 )-amplified fluorescence prior to Co~(2 ),Pb~(2 ),Mg~(2 ),Mn~(2 ),Ni~(2 ),Zn~(2 ),Fe~(3 ),Ag~ and Cd~(2 ),and the largest emission enhancement factor is about 9 at a ratio of 2:1 (chemosensor 1/Cu~(2 )).     

A Novel Dimeric Eremophilane from Ligularia virgaurea spp. oligocephala

A novel dimeric eremophilane, ligulolide B, was isolated from the alcoholic extract of the whole plant of Ligularia virgaurea spp. oligocephala. The structure was elucidated by various spectroscopic methods including intensive 2D NMR techniques （^1H-^1H COSY, gHMQC, gHMBC and ^1H-^1H NOESY） and HR-ESI-MS.     

The Surface Imprinted Polystyrene Beads Prepared via Emulsion Templates

In this paper, the surface imprinted cross-linked polystyrene beads were prepared via suspension polymerization with styrene (St), divinylbezene (DVB), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA1788),the mixture of Span 85 and xylene or the mixture of Span 85 and paraffin as monomer,cross-linking agent, dispersion stabilizer and templates, respectively. The results indicate that there are dense cavities on the surface of beads, and the diameter and density of cavity are related with the composition and amount of emulsion template. The forming mechanism of cavity from thermodynamics and dynamics was proposed.     

Fully quantum mechanical energy optimization for protein-ligand structure

We present a quantum mechanical approach to study protein-ligand binding structure with application to a Adipocyte lipid-binding protein complexed with Propanoic Acid. The present approach employs a recently develop molecular fractionation with a conjugate caps (MFCC) method to compute protein-ligand interaction energy and performs energy optimization using the quasi-Newton method. The MFCC method enables us to compute fully quantum mechanical ab initio protein-ligand interaction energy and its gradients that are used in energy minimization. This quantum optimization approach is applied to study the Adipocyte lipid-binding protein complexed with Propanoic Acid system, a complex system consisting of a 2057-atom protein and a 10-atom ligand. The MFCC calculation is carried out at the Hartree-Fock level with a 3-21G basis set. The quantum optimized structure of this complex is in good agreement with the experimental crystal structure. The quantum energy calculation is implemented in a parallel program that dramatically speeds up the MFCC calculation for the protein-ligand system. Similarly good agreement between MFCC optimized structure and the experimental structure is also obtained for the streptavidin-biotin complex. Due to heavy computational cost, the quantum energy minimization is carried out in a six-dimensional space that corresponds to the rigid-body protein-ligand interaction.     

THE NATURE AND SOURCE OF ESR SIGNAL IN BILIRUBIN

The ESR signals of bilirubin-IXα were studied including the samples treated with free radical generating and inhibiting systems, i.e.X-X0., Fe/EDTA, SOD, mannitol/ascorbate, DTPA, KCN et al.These stable signals all comprise those originated from a semiquinone radical(g=2.0012)and superoxide radical(g₁₁=2.041, g_⊥=2.0040).The latter is shown to be bound with metal ionsespecially iron, chelated by bilirubin.The iron probably comes from bilirubin precursor---hemootobin.Active oxygen free radical scavengers may destroy these radicals.Kinetic curves of regeneration of the bilirubin radicals have been determined.Bilirubin is discussed as"active oxygen trap"in mammatians.

The research on the high quality TiO2, MoO3-doped WO3 electrochromic film

The high quality TiO2, MoO3-doped WO3 electrochromic film was prepared by the sol–gel method for the first time. The sol, which has hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and oxalic acid (H2C2O4), was very stable at room temperature and quite suitable for the deposition of films. The WO3 electrochromic film prepared from this doped sol had excellent performance, such as short response time, no cracks, good adhesion to the substrate, high coloring efficiency and longevity of service.     

Simplistic modeling approach to heterogeneous dilute-acid hydrolysis of cellulose microcrystallites

The classic kinetic model for cellulose hydrolysis is often referred to as pseudo-homogeneous, a term revealing the insight that the process is actually heterogeneous. During the past 10–15 yr, the shortcomings of this model have been demonstrated in various studies and the interest in the heterogeneous aspects has increased. The present work presents a simplistic model in which the intrinsic, heterogeneous hydrolysis and transport rates are coupled by the assumption of a constant glucosidic surface concentration. The mechanisms affecting these two rates are largely unknown, but the model serves as a guideline for further exploration of the process.
