Two new copper complexes [Cu(Hdpa)2(en)] (1) and [{Cu2(μ-na)4(CH3OH)2}·2CH3OH] (2) (where en is ethylene diamine, Hdpa is 2′-carboxy-[1,10-biphenyl]-2-carboxylate anion and na is 1-naphtalenecarboxylate) have been synthesized and their crystal structures were determined by X-ray crystallography. Complex 1 was prepared from the reaction of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O with ethylene diamine and 2,2′-biphenyldicarboxylic acid in a mixture of water and methanol and complex 2 was prepared from the reaction of CuSO4·5H2O with 1-naphtalenecarboxylic acid in methanol. The two complexes were characterized by IR, UV–vis, luminescence and elemental analysis. Moreover, complex 2 was characterized by EPR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Complex 1 is a monomer and complex 2 is a dimer with a paddle-wheel structure; both structures are without precedent in the literature. 相似文献
In the title salt, C14H18N22+·2C9H5N4O−, the 1,1′‐diethyl‐4,4′‐bipyridine‐1,1′‐diium dication lies across a centre of inversion in the space group P21/c. In the 1,1,3,3‐tetracyano‐2‐ethoxypropenide anion, the two independent –C(CN)2 units are rotated, in conrotatory fashion, out of the plane of the central propenide unit, making dihedral angles with the central unit of 16.0 (2) and 23.0 (2)°. The ionic components are linked by C—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a complex sheet structure, within which each cation acts as a sixfold donor of hydrogen bonds and each anion acts as a threefold acceptor of hydrogen bonds. 相似文献
In this paper, we consider a second‐order fast explicit operator splitting method for the viscous Cahn‐Hilliard equation, which includes a viscosity term αΔut (α ∈ (0, 1)) described the influences of internal micro‐forces. The choice α = 0 corresponds to the classical Cahn‐Hilliard equation whilst the choice α = 1 recovers the nonlocal Allen‐Cahn equation. The fundamental idea of our method is to split the original problem into linear and nonlinear parts. The linear subproblem is numerically solved using a pseudo‐spectral method, and thus an ordinary differential equation is obtained. The nonlinear one is solved via TVD‐RK method. The stability and convergence are discussed in L2‐norm. Numerical experiments are performed to validate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. Besides, a detailed comparison is made for the dynamics and the coarsening process of the metastable pattern for various values of α. Moreover, energy degradation and mass conservation are also verified. 相似文献
Basis risk arises in a number of financial and insurance risk management problems when the hedging assets do not perfectly match the underlying asset in a hedging program. Notable examples in insurance include the hedging for longevity risks, weather index–based insurance products, variable annuities, etc. In the presence of basis risk, a perfect hedging is impossible, and in this paper, we adopt a mean‐variance criterion to strike a balance between the expected hedging error and its variability. Under a time‐dependent diffusion model setup, explicit optimal solutions are derived for the hedging target being either a European option or a forward contract. The solutions are obtained by a delicate application of the linear quadratic control theory, the method of backward stochastic differential equation, and Malliavin calculus. A numerical example is presented to illustrate our theoretical results and their interesting implications. 相似文献
A systematic investigation into the influence of the degree of fluorination on the static and dynamic wetting behavior of TiO2‐based nanobelt (TNB) particles with various liquids is described. The effect of the degree of fluorination and the surface tension of the liquid on the occurrence and stability of liquid marbles, foams or dispersions are studied and the wetting behavior and arrangement of particles at the air–liquid surface are observed. Using contact angle (θ) measurements, the relation between the type of particle‐stabilized material and θ is established. For liquids of relatively high tension like water or formamide which do not wet the fluorinated particles, a powder‐like material (marble) is formed. For polar oils of intermediate tension (35–50 mN m?1), which partially wet the fluorinated particles, stable air‐in‐oil foams can be prepared in which particles form a close‐packed layer enveloping air bubbles. Liquids of relatively low tension, e.g., ethanol or polydimethylsiloxane, wet the particles forming a uniform dispersion and partial sedimentation. By contrast, the as‐prepared hydrophilic TNB particles are rapidly wetted by all the liquids as expected due to their high surface energy. The stable cross‐stacked TNB particles with fluoroalkylsilane (FAS) modification could be a versatile platform in a wide range of applications, especially for fluidic devices (e.g., biofluids, gas sensing, and lab‐on‐a‐chip devices). In a proof‐of‐concept study, the oil–water separation performance of fabrics with chemically stable TNB/FAS coating and the liquid isolation by a TNB/FAS shell for highly sensitive gas sensing or reagent assays are investigated. 相似文献
The thermal degradation behavior of nylon-6 (PA6) and PA6/attapulgite (ATP) nanocomposites was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis under non-isothermal conditions at various heating rates in nitrogen. It is suggested that during thermal degradation, ATP, as a protective barrier, can slow down degradation of polymer, but the catalytic effects of structural water and hydroxyl groups may accelerate the degradation of PA6. The combination of these two effects determined the final thermal stability of nanocomposites. The apparent activation energies of the samples were evaluated by the Kissinger and Flynn–Wall–Ozawa methods. The results showed that the presence of ATP adversely affected the thermal stability of PA6. The degradation activation energies of PA6/ATP nanocomposites decreased monotonically with increase in ATP content; thus, it is suggested that the ATP has a disadvantageous effect on the thermal stability of PA6. 相似文献
Titanium dioxide nanorods (TNR) were grown on a titanium electrode by a hydrothermal route and further employed as a supporting matrix for the immobilization of nafion-coated horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The strong electrostatic interaction between HRP and TNR favors the adsorption of HRP and facilitates direct electron transfer on the electrode. The electrocatalytic activity towards hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was investigated via cyclic voltammetry and amperometry. The biosensor exhibits fast response, a high sensitivity (416.9 μA·mM−1), a wide linear response range (2.5 nM to 0.46 mM), a detection limit as low as 12 nM, and a small apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (33.6 μM). The results indicate that this method is a promising technique for enzyme immobilization and for the fabrication of electrochemical biosensors.
A TiO2 nanorod film was directly grown on Ti substrate by a hydrothermal route, and was further employed for a supporting matrix to immobilize horseradish peroxidase as a biosensor electrode. The as-prepared hydrogen peroxide biosensor based on Nafion/HRP/TNR/Ti electrode exhibited fast response and excellent electrocatalytic activity toward H2O2, i.e., a high sensitivity (416.9 μA mM−1), a wide linear range (2.5 × 10−8 to 4.6 × 10−4 M) with a low detection limit (0.012 μM) and a small apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (33.6 μM).

Indoline-2-thiones (5) were applied as 1,3-dinucleophiles in a tandem reaction with Baylis–Hillman adduct acetates (4) to give novel tetrahydrothiopyrano[2,3-b]indole skeletons (6). The effect of different solvents, bases, and catalysts on the yields and stereochemical outcome was studied in detail. The results indicated that acetonitrile as solvent and K2CO3 as base, under reflux conditions, were the optimum conditions. Products 6a–6l were obtained in high diastereoselectivity and yield (up to 94%). 相似文献
