Adaptation of Cu/ZnO/Al_2O_3 to Temperature Change in Methanol Synthesis from CO_2 Hydrogenation

The induction behavior in CO2 hydrogenation was studied by varying the reaction temperature to investigate the adaptation of the Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst to the temperature change. The results indicated that a used catalyst had a tendency to keep the last running state in new reaction conditions for MeOH formation, and that this tendency was related to the difference in Cu/Cun+ ratio caused by CO2 and CO produced at different reaction temperatures. However, the reverse water-gas shift reaction (RWGS) induced at four temperatures was completely different from that of methanol synthesis. It implied that the two so-called competitive reactions in CO2+H2, RWGS and methanol synthesis, have different active centers.     

氮肥管理对夏玉米土壤CH4和N2O排放的影响

通过设置四个不同的氮肥管理措施, 即氮肥施用量300 kg N/ha (N300)和250 kg N/ha (N250)、改进的施肥模式(Optimized)以及施用缓释肥(SRU), 研究华北平原夏玉米生长季土壤与大气之间CH₄和N₂O的交换通量及相应措施的减排潜力. 结果表明, 在2008年整个夏玉米生长季, 土壤都是大气CH₄的净吸收库和N₂O的排放源. 夏玉米生长季土壤氧化吸收的CH₄总量从大到小依次为Optimized > N250 > SRU > N300, 对应的吸收总量依次为624.16、590.07、487.89以及316.02 g CH₄-C/ha, 各处理间氧化吸收的CH₄总量无显著差异. 与N300和N250这两个处理相比, 依据夏玉米对氮肥的需肥规律以及玉米根层土壤速效氮的供给能力而确定氮肥施用量, 同时再平衡施用磷肥和钾肥的改进施肥模式能够显著降低夏玉米生长季N₂O的排放. 施用聚乙烯包膜的尿素也能够显著降低夏玉米季N₂O的排放. 夏玉米生长季土壤排放的N₂O总量从大到小依次为N300 > N250 > Optimized > SRU, 对应的排放总量依次为3462.18、2340.07、1680.00以及911.91 g N2O-N/ha, 相应的N₂O排放系数分别为1.15%、0.94%、0.91%以及0.30%.     

First Synthesis of 2a-Thiol Ether Analog of Docetaxel

The chemistry of anticancer drug paclitaxel (=Taxol, 1a) has been extensively explored in recent years. A variety of its analogs with modified taxane frame work or substitutions to its core structure, as well as C-13 substituted isoserine side chains have been synthesized and biologically evaluated1. The marketing of docetaxel (=Taxotere, 1b) is one of the fruitful results from these research efforts. The beginning of clinical trial for analog 2 developed by Indena is the new example. Ba…

人血清Alpha-1-酸性糖蛋白的糖基化分析

获取真实准确的蛋白质糖基化信息是全面了解糖基化修饰生物学功能的前提.针对简单蛋白质的糖基化分析通常采用反相高效液相色谱-串联质谱技术在肽的水平上对糖基化信息进行采集和解析.本文以人血清Alpha-1-酸性糖蛋白(AGP)酶解液为对象,发展了一套简单有效的蛋白质糖基化分析方法.本方法分为三个步骤,第一步是建立糖肽的理论m/z值表;第二步是获取糖蛋白酶解液的LC-MS谱图,并将每一个色谱峰中所包含糖肽的实际m/z值与理论m/z值进行人工匹配;第三步是对每个色谱峰的糖肽结构归属进行LC-MS/MS验证.采用本方法,我们从AGP酶解液中共鉴定出172条糖肽.与单独采用Survey模式的方法相比,本方法能够显著提高糖肽的覆盖率.

Birthrates and delay times of Type Ia supernovae

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play an important role in diverse areas of astrophysics, from the chemical evolution of galaxies to observational cosmology. However, the nature of the progenitors of SNe Ia is still unclear. In this paper, according to a detailed binary population synthesis study, we obtained SN Ia birthrates and delay times from different progenitor models, and compared them with observations. We find that the Galactic SN Ia birthrate from the double-degenerate (DD) model is close to those infe...     

Air-breathing mode laser propulsion with a long-pulse TE CO_2 laser

Air-breathing mode laser propulsion experiment with a long-pulse transversely excited(TE) CO2 laser is carried out,and its ignition problem is solved with the ignition needle of lightcraft.Owing to the ignition needle,an order of magnitude reduction in the ignition threshold is demonstrated.The result is compared with previous study.The momentum coupling coefficient is also measured in the experiment and its dependence upon laser pulse energy(6-14 J) and pulse width(20,32,and 40μs) is discussed.     

Dipole bands in nucleus ~(139)Pm

High-spin states in nucleus 139Pm have been studied using the reaction 116Cd(27Al,4n)139Pm.Two dipole cascades have been found.Spin and parity assignments were based on the Directional Correlation of Oriented Nuclei(DCO) ratios and systematic behavior in neighboring odd-proton nuclei.The level structures of 139Pm are compared with those of the N =78 isotone 141Eu in which two dipole bands have been confirmed as magnetic rotational bands.The close similarity between them suggests that the dipole bands in 139...     

Photoisomerization of norbornadiene group in a rigid bichromophoric compound initiated by remote keto chromophore: long-distance through-bond triplet energy transfer

A diad compound 3β(bicyclo[2,2,1]hepta-2,5-diene-2-methylcarboxylate-3-carboxy)-an-drost-5-en-17-one (NBD-S-ONE) was synthesized and its photochemistry was examined. Irradiation of NBD-S-ONE in acetonitrile at λ > 300 nm selectively excited the keto chromophore. After intersystem crossing, the triplet energy of the keto group was transferred to the NBD group with 18.6% efficiency via a through-bond mechanism, resulting in the isomerization of the latter group to the quadricyclane group.
