Isotactic (it-) and syndiotactic (st-) poly(methyl methacrylate)s (PMMAs) were fractionated into uniform PMMAs (without molecular weight distribution) by supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). The SFC technique was applied to the isolation of uniform it- and st-PMMAs with a hydroxy group (it- and st-PMMA-OH) at the chain end. Equimolar amounts of uniform it- and st-PMMA-OHs were coupled with sebacoyl dichloride to form uniform stereoblock PMMA. The reaction of uniform st-PMMA-OH with methacryloyl chloride gave uniform PMMA macromonomer with methacryloyl group at the chain end. The resulting uniform macromonomer was polymerized radically and the products were fractionated into uniform comblike polymers (1mer to 4mer) by means of gel-permeation chromatography (GPC). The uniform st-PMMA-OH was reacted with 1, 3, 5-benzenetricarbonyl trichloride to form uniform st-tri-armed star polymer. Some of the properties of these uniform stereoregular polymer architectures were studied. 相似文献
The Li3MX6 compounds (M=Sc, Y, In; X=Cl, Br) are known as promising ionic conductors due to their compatibility with typical metal oxide cathode materials. In this study, we have successfully synthesized γ-Li3ScCl6 using high pressure for the first time in this family. Structural analysis revealed that the high-pressure polymorph crystallizes in the polar and chiral space group P63mc with hexagonal close-packing (hcp) of anions, unlike the ambient-pressure α-Li3ScCl6 and its spinel analog with cubic closed packing (ccp) of anions. Investigation of the known Li3MX6 family further revealed that the cation/anion radius ratio, rM/rX, is the factor that determines which anion sublattice is formed and that in γ-Li3ScCl6, the difference in compressibility between Sc and Cl exceeds the ccp rM/rX threshold under pressure, enabling the ccp-to-hcp conversion. Electrochemical tests of γ-Li3ScCl6 demonstrate improved electrochemical reduction stability. These findings open up new avenues and design principles for lithium solid electrolytes, enabling routes for materials exploration and tuning electrochemical stability without compositional changes or the use of coatings. 相似文献
The spectra and kinetic behavior of solvated electrons (esol−) in alkyl ammonium ionic liquids (ILs), i.e. N,N-diethyl-N-methyl-N-(2-methoxyethyl)ammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (DEMMA-TFSI), N,N-diethyl-N-methyl-N-(2-methoxyethyl)ammonium tetrafluoroborate (DEMMA-BF4), N,N,N-trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMPA-TFSI), N-methyl-N-propylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PP13-TFSI), N-methyl-N-propylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (P13-TFSI), and N-methyl-N-butylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (P14-TFSI) were investigated by the pulse radiolysis method. The esol− in each of the ammonium ILs has an absorption peak at 1100 nm, with molar absorption coefficients of 1.5–2.3×104 dm3 mol−1 cm−1. The esol− decayed by first order with a rate constant of 1.4–6.4×106 s−1. The reaction rate constant of the solvated electron with pyrene (Py) was 1.5–3.5×108 dm3 mol−1 s−1 in the various ILs. These values were about one order of magnitude higher than the diffusion-controlled limits calculated from measured viscosities. The radiolytic yields (G-value) of the esol− were 0.8–1.7×10−7 mol J−1. The formation rate constant of esol− in DEMMA-TFSI was 3.9×1010 s−1. The dry electron (edry−) in DEMMA-TFSI reacts with Py with a rate constant of 7.9×1011 dm3 mol−1 s−1, three orders of magnitude higher than that of the esol− reactions. The G-value of the esol− in the picosecond time region is 1.2×10−7 mol J−1. The capture of edry− by scavengers was found to be very fast in ILs. 相似文献
Recently, it has been revealed that a semiflexible polyelectrolyte chain can form a partially folded conformation stably as a result of an electrostatic interaction. Interestingly, there are cases where the appearance of this structure requires a high-salt condition of a solution. In order to solve this problem, we consider the double equilibrium of the formation of loops and their aggregation on a single-chain polymer. First, an aggregate with a typical surface energy is examined as a test case. The basic nature of the folding transition is discussed with regard to the chemical potential of loop structures. Next, we consider a charged aggregate for which the interior is completely neutralized by counter ions. In this model, a partially folded chain appears with a high-salt condition. Based on this model, screened interactions between surface charges and a toroidal shape of a folded structure are considered essential factors bihind this phenomenon. 相似文献
We propose detecting a fragment ion (Ph2As+) using counter-flow introduction atmospheric pressure chemical ionization ion trap mass spectrometry for sensitive air monitoring of chemical warfare vomiting agents diphenylchloroarsine (DA) and diphenylcyanoarsine (DC). The liquid sample containing of DA, DC, and bis(diphenylarsine)oxide (BDPAO) was heated in a dry air line, and the generated vapor was mixed into the humidified air flowing through the sampling line of a mass spectrometer. Humidity effect on the air monitoring was investigated by varying the humidity of the analyzed air sample. Evidence of the in-line conversion of DA and DC to diphenylarsine hydroxide (DPAH) and then BDPAO was obtained by comparing the chronograms of various ions from the beginning of heating. Multiple-stage mass spectrometry revealed that the protonated molecule (MH+) of DA, DC, DPAH, and BDPAO could produce Ph2As+ through their in-source fragmentation. Among the signals of the ions that were investigated, the Ph2As+ signal was the most intense and increased to reach a plateau with the increased air humidity, whereas the MH+ signal of DA decreased. It was suggested that DA and DC were converted in-line into BDPAO, which was a major source of Ph2As+.
