Both aliphatic and aromatic amino sulfonamides such as mafenide ( 1a ) were synthesized in good yields (80–86%) by direct electrochemical hydrogenation of the corresponding nitriles in an undivided cell containing a Ni cathode, a Pt anode, and Raney Ni as catalyst (Table 1). The reaction can be performed without external supply of pressurized gas by in situ generation of H2. Slightly elevated temperatures (45°) and low current densities (10 mA/cm2) are favorable conditions for this type of electrochemical nitrile hydrogenation. Our synthetic protocol does not require high‐pressure equipment or chemical hazards, is environmentally very friendly, and more economical than traditional methods. The concentration of adsorbed H. radicals on the catalyst surface can be easily controlled by adjusting the electric potential, which may lead to improved product selectivity and, at the same time, reduces the risk of explosion and fire. 相似文献
The work summarized here demonstrates a new concept for exploiting dense phase CO(2), media considered to be "green" solvents, for homogeneous catalytic oxidation reactions. According to this concept, the conventional organic solvent medium used in catalytic chemical reactions is replaced substantially (up to 80 vol %) by CO(2), at moderate pressures (tens of bars), to create a continuum of CO(2)-expanded solvent media. A particular benefit is found for oxidation catalysis; the presence of CO(2) in the mixed medium increases the O(2) solubility by ca. 100 times compared to that in the neat organic solvent while the retained organic solvent serves an essential role by solubilizing the transition metal catalyst. We show that CO(2)-expanded solvents provide optimal properties for maximizing oxidation rates that are typically 1-2 orders of magnitude greater than those obtained with either the neat organic solvent or supercritical CO(2) as the reaction medium. These advantages are demonstrated with examples of homogeneous oxidations of a substituted phenol and of cyclohexene by molecular O(2) using transition metal catalysts, cobalt Schiff-base and iron porphyrin complexes, respectively, in CO(2)-expanded CH(3)CN. 相似文献
Transition metal molybdates of the formulaAMoO4 whereA=Fe, Co or Ni exhibit a first-order phase transition between 670K–970K. An investigation of the lowtemperature (lt) and high-temperature (ht) phases by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility and other physical methods
shows that the phase transition is associated with a valence change of the typeA2++Mo6+αA3++Mo5+ in the cases of iron and cobalt molybdates.

Relative intensities of the Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman lines associated with the I-I stretching mode of I2 and symmetric stretching mode of MnO?4 are presented. The data indicate that the maxima in the excitation profile of the anti-Stokes scattering are shifted from those of the Stokes scattering. The experimental Stokes/anti-Stokes intensity ratios agree with the theoretical values obtained with parameters from the electronic absorption spectra. 相似文献
The kinetics of thermal polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by the redox system Mn(III)–glycerol was studied in aqueous sulfuric acid in the temperature range of 30–40°C, and the rates of polymerization, Rp, and Mn3+ disappearance, etc., were measured. The effect of certain water-miscible organic solvents and certain cationic and anionic surfactants on the rates of polymerization has been investigated. A mechanism involving the formation of a complex between Mn3+ and glycerol whose decomposition yields the initiating free radical with the polymerization being terminated by the metal ion has been suggested. 相似文献
A method is developed for the selective leaching of 233U from a thorium oxalate cake. The leaching capacity of ammonium carbonate and nitric acid have been investigated, showing that (NH4)2CO3 leads to higher recovery. The maximum leaching efficiency is obtained using 0.5% ammonium carbonate, with a minimal thorium pick-up. A uranium recovery of 94% is obtained after three consecutive contact experiments in carbonate media, with minimal thorium uptake in the leachate. This process was applied to an actual plant stream, allowing the reduction of the 233U -activity from 5.64 to 0.3 Ci/g of thorium oxalate cake. 相似文献
The complexes of pyridine-2-aldoxime (HPOX) and 6-methylpyridine-2-aldoxime (HMPX) with iron (II) thiocyanate of the type [Fe(L)(NCS)2] (L=HPOX and HMPX) have been prepared and characterized. A study of X-ray, magnetic, vibrational spectra (conventional and far-infrared), electronic spectra andMössbauer spectra has indicated that these complexes have polymeric, pseudo octahedral, coordination geometry with linear bridging thiocyanate ligands. The electronic spectra of mono complexes show a larger, low symmetry, ligand field than that present in [Fe(L)2(NCS)2] complexes. UnperturbedMössbauer spectra show a large quadrupole splitting, EQ, and smaller isomer shift values in these iron (II) thiocyanate complexes. The magnetically perturbedMössbauer spectra of these iron(II) thiocyanate complexes at room temperature show that the principal component of the electric field gradient tensor is positive and corresponds to adxy (5B2) ground state.With 2 Figures 相似文献
Fabricating mechanically strong hydrogels that can withstand the conditions in internal tissues is a challenging task. We have designed hydrogels based on multicomponent systems by combining chitosan, starch/cellulose, PVA, and PEDOT:PSS via one-pot synthesis. The starch-based hydrogels were homogeneous, while the cellulose-based hydrogels showed the presence of cellulose micro- and nanofibers. The cellulose-based hydrogels demonstrated a swelling ratio between 121 and 156%, while the starch-based hydrogels showed higher values, from 234 to 280%. Tensile tests indicated that the presence of starch in the hydrogels provided high flexibility (strain at break?>?300%), while combination with cellulose led to the formation of stiffer hydrogels (elastic moduli 3.9–6.6 MPa). The ultimate tensile strength for both types of hydrogels was similar (2.8–3.9 MPa). The adhesion and growth of human osteoblast-like SAOS-2 cells was higher on hydrogels with cellulose than on hydrogels with starch, and was higher on hydrogels with PEDOT:PSS than on hydrogels without this polymer. The metabolic activity of cells cultivated for 3 days in the hydrogel infusions indicated that no acutely toxic compounds were released. This is promising for further possible applications of these hydrogels in tissue engineering or in wound dressings.
