Combination of wet-grinding and laser fragmentation is a promising approach to advance both methods: Laser fragmentation will be more efficient when combined with mechanical treatment and wet-grinding may take advance of the abrasion-free laser process to achieve fabrication of smaller particles. By mechanical pre-treatment of zinc oxide microparticles in a stirred-media mill, the starting material is activated by generation of crystallographic defects, which strongly enhance the efficiency of subsequent laser fragmentation. Picosecond-laser irradiation of mechanically treated and untreated microparticles suspended in water yielded in colloidal zinc oxide nanoparticles. Furthermore, nanoparticle productivity and properties can be controlled by variation of anionic surfactant concentration. 相似文献

The synthesis and X-ray structure of a new manganese(V) mesitylimido complex with a tetraamido macrocyclic ligand (TAML), [MnV(TAML)(N-Mes)]− ( 1 ), are reported. Compound 1 is oxidized by [(p-BrC6H4)3N ]+.[SbCl6]− and the resulting MnVI species readily undergoes H-atom transfer and nitrene transfer reactions. 相似文献
‘Slotting fee’ (hereafter ‘SF’) is an upfront fee a ‘supplier’ is required to pay a retailer in order to have his product sold on the retailer's shelves. It is becoming increasingly common, but also widely reviled. This paper considers a newsvendor product whose expected demand is dependent on retail price and sales effort. The question we pose is: given that the Stackelberg-dominant retailer has to choose a pricing contract with which she transacts with the supplier, how would the supply-chain stakeholders fare when the retailer implements SF instead of another practical pricing contract? We show that, contradicting its negative public image, SF empowers the dominant retailer to specify contract terms that will benefit all the stakeholder-groups. That is, the supplier's and the retailer's profits are higher, the production workers are asked to produce more, and the consumers pay a lower retail price. We also propose a new ‘composite’ contract format that incorporates both the SF and ‘buyback’ features. This composite format empowers the retailer to provide even greater benefits to the supply-chain's stakeholders.
The kinetics and mechanism of the reaction of SIV (SO32?+HSO3?) with a ruthenium(VI) nitrido complex, [(L)RuVI(N)(OH2)]+ (RuVIN, L=N,N′‐bis(salicylidene)‐o‐cyclohexyldiamine dianion), in aqueous acidic solutions are reported. The kinetic results are consistent with parallel pathways involving oxidation of HSO3? and SO32? by RuVIN. A deuterium isotope effect of 4.7 is observed in the HSO3? pathway. Based on experimental results and DFT calculations the proposed mechanism involves concerted N?S bond formation (partial N‐atom transfer) between RuVIN and HSO3? and H+ transfer from HSO3? to a H2O molecule. 相似文献
A diiodo distyryl boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) core was conjugated to two ferrocenyl quenchers through acid‐labile ketal and/or thiol‐cleavable disulfide linkers, of which the fluorescence and photosensitizing properties were significantly quenched through a photoinduced electron‐transfer process. The two symmetrical analogues that contained either the ketal or disulfide linkers could only be activated by a single stimulus, whereas the unsymmetrical analogue was responsive to dual stimuli. Upon interaction with acid and/or dithiothreitol (DTT), these linkers were cleaved selectively. The separation of the BODIPY core and the ferrocenyl moieties restored the photoactivities of the former in phosphate buffered saline and inside the MCF‐7 breast cancer cells, rendering these compounds as potential activable photosensitizers for targeted photodynamic therapy. The dual activable analogue exhibited the greatest enhancement in intracellular fluorescence intensity in both an acidic environment (pH 5) and the presence of DTT (4 mm ). Its photocytotoxicity against MCF‐7 cells also increased by about twofold upon preincubation with 4 mm of DTT. The activation of this compound was also demonstrated in nude mice bearing a HT29 human colorectal carcinoma. A significant increase in fluorescence intensity in the tumor was observed over 9 h after intratumoral injection. 相似文献
We report herein an exonuclease-assisted aptamer-based target recycling amplification strategy for sensitive and selective chemiluminescence (CL) determination of adenosine. This aptasensor is based on target-induced release of aptamers from capture probes immobilized on the 96-well plate surface, and thus leading to a decreased hybridization with gold nanoparticle-functionalized reporter sequences followed by a CL signal. The introduction of exonuclease III catalyzes the stepwise removal of mononucleotides from 3′-hydroxyl termini of duplex DNAs of aptamers, liberating the adenosine. Therefore, a single copy of target adenosine can lead to the release and digestion of numerous aptamer strands from the 96-well plates and ultimately an enhanced sensitivity is achieved. Experimental results revealed that the exonuclease-assisted recycling strategy enabled the monitoring of adenosine with wide working ranges and low detection limits (LOD: 0.5 nM). This new CL strategy might create a novel technology for the detection of various targets and could find wide applications in the environmental and biomedical fields. 相似文献
We wish to report an approach (equation 1) to hydrophenanthrenes which shows considerable promise of providing a general synthetic route for diterpenes, steroids, triterpenes, and tetraterpenes. Herein we illustrate the utility of this Friedel-Crafts type of procedure3,6 by describing a synthesis of ferruginol (6)7 and xanthoperol (8).8相似文献
