盐析剂——氯化钠存在下稀土含量的准确测定

分光光度法(Spectrophotometry)和电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法(ICP-AES)是常用的测定单一稀土含量的方法。但是萃取稀土过程中通常会加入盐析剂NaCl,萃余水相中大量钠离子所产生的光谱背景严重干扰了稀土含量的测定。考察了NaCl对稀土含量测定的影响,实验结果表明:在基体不匹配的情况下,只有当钠盐浓度低于0.08 mol·L-1时,分光光度法可以准确测定萃余液中单一轻稀土(La,Ce,Pr,Nd)及中稀土(Sm,Eu,Gd)的含量,但不能准确测定重稀土的含量;而使用ICP-AES法,在NaCl浓度为0.001~1.0 mol·L-1条件下无法准确测定稀土含量。因此,实验室宜采用分光光度法在基体不匹配的条件下测定轻、中稀土含量,重稀土在基体匹配的条件下用电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法测定。     

TNT高温热解及含碳团簇形成的反应分子动力学模拟

ReaxFF-MD模拟三硝基甲苯(TNT)高温热解显示增加了伦敦耗散力项(E_lg)的ReaxFF/lg 势函数在含能材料平衡密度计算方面具有优越性. 产物识别分析得出TNT热解的主要产物为NO₂、NO、H₂O、N₂、CO₂、CO、OH以及HONO,且最终产物为H₂O、N₂和CO₂. 使用ReaxFF势函数模拟同样过程进行比较性分析显示,在主要产物和最终产物方面与ReaxFF/lg 作用结果具有一致性,但在化学反应动力学方面表现出一些差异. ortho-NO₂键断裂和C―NO₂→C―ONO重排布-断裂形成NO₂和NO是TNT热解的主要初级反应,且前者产生速率大于后者,NO₂和NO形成后很快参与次级反应并最终形成N₂. 高温热解中形成OH等小分子会促进H₂O的形成. 环上基团相互反应或直接脱落后,主环间C―C键才发生断裂,但温度升高会加快主环断裂,并进一步分解形成CO₂,这也是高温条件下CO₂分布产生波动的一个重要原因. 并且当晶胞中的TNT分子几乎完全分解时,系统的势能开始明显衰减. 与温度相比,密度对热解中最大含碳团簇形成的影响更明显. 并且,模拟结果显示,在TNT完全分解前已经出现含碳中间体的聚合现象. 此项工作表明使用ReaxFF/lg 反应力场研究TNT高温热解可以提供具体的动力学和化学方面的信息,并有助于理解含能材料的爆轰问题并可进行安全评估.     

Synthesis of Two‐Dimensional Transition‐Metal Phosphates with Highly Ordered Mesoporous Structures for Lithium‐Ion Battery Applications

Materials with ordered mesoporous structures have shown great potential in a wide range of applications. In particular, the combination of mesoporosity, low dimensionality, and well‐defined morphology in nanostructures may exhibit even more attractive features. However, the synthesis of such structures is still challenging in polar solvents. Herein, we report the preparation of ultrathin two‐dimensional (2D) nanoflakes of transition‐metal phosphates, including FePO₄, Mn₃(PO₄)₂, and Co₃(PO₄)₂, with highly ordered mesoporous structures in a nonpolar solvent. The as‐obtained nanoflakes with thicknesses of about 3.7 nm are constructed from a single layer of parallel‐packed pore channels. These uniquely ordered mesoporous 2D nanostructures may originate from the 2D assembly of cylindrical micelles formed by the amphiphilic precursors in the nonpolar solvent. The 2D mesoporous FePO₄ nanoflakes were used as the cathode for a lithium‐ion battery, which exhibits excellent stability and high rate capabilities.     

Oxidative Cross‐Coupling of Allenyl Ketones and Organoboronic Acids: Expeditious Synthesis of Highly Substituted Furans

Allenyl ketones are employed as coupling partners in palladium‐catalyzed oxidative cross‐coupling reactions with organoboronic acids. This reaction constitutes an efficient methodology for the synthesis of highly substituted furan derivatives. Palladium‐carbene migratory insertion is proposed as the key step in this transformation.     

Self‐Healable Electrically Conducting Wires for Wearable Microelectronics

Electrically conducting wires play a critical role in the advancement of modern electronics and in particular are an important key to the development of next‐generation wearable microelectronics. However, the thin conducting wires can easily break during use, and the whole device fails to function as a result. Herein, a new family of high‐performance conducting wires that can self‐heal after breaking has been developed by wrapping sheets of aligned carbon nanotubes around polymer fibers. The aligned carbon nanotubes offer an effective strategy for the self‐healing of the electric conductivity, whereas the polymer fiber recovers its mechanical strength. A self‐healable wire‐shaped supercapacitor fabricated from a wire electrode of this type maintained a high capacitance after breaking and self‐healing.     

Enantioselective Iron‐Catalyzed Intramolecular Cyclopropanation Reactions

An iron‐catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular cyclopropanation was realized in high yields and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 97 % ee) by using the iron complexes of chiral spiro‐bisoxazoline ligands as catalysts. The superiority of iron catalysts exhibited in this reaction demonstrated the potential abilities of this sustainable metal in asymmetric carbenoid transformation reactions.     

Geometry‐Assisted Three‐Dimensional Superlocalization Imaging of Single‐Molecule Catalysis on Modular Multilayer Nanocatalysts

To establish the structure–catalytic property relationships of heterogeneous catalysts, a detailed characterization of the three‐dimensional (3D) distribution of active sites on a single catalyst is essential. Single‐particle catalysis of a modular multilayer catalytic platform that consists of a solid silica core, a mesoporous silica shell, and uniformly distributed Pt nanoparticles sandwiched in between these layers is presented. The first 3D high‐resolution super‐localization imaging of single fluorescent molecules produced at active sites on the core‐shell model nanocatalysts is demonstrated. The 3D mapping is aided by the well‐defined geometry and a correlation study in scanning electron microscopy and total internal reflection fluorescence and scattering microscopy. This approach can be generalized to study other nano‐ and mesoscale structures.     

Effects of Edge Oxidation on the Stability and Half‐Metallicity of Graphene Quantum Dots

A comprehensive first‐principles theoretical study of the electronic properties and half‐metallic nature of zigzag edge‐oxidized graphene quantum dots (GQDs) is carried out by using density functional theory (DFT) with the screened exchange hybrid functional of Heyd, Scuseria and Ernzerhof (HSE06). The oxidation schemes include ‐OH, ‐COOH and ‐COO groups. We identify oxidized GQDs whose opposite spins are localized at the two zigzag edges in an antiferromagnetic‐type configuration, showing a spin‐polarized ground state. Oxidized GQDs are more stable than the corresponding fully hydrogenated GQDs. The partially hydroxylated and carboxylated GQDs with the same size exhibit half‐metallic state under almost the same electric‐field intensity whereas fully oxidized GQDs behave as spin‐selective semiconductors. The electric‐field intensity inducing the half metal increases with the length of the partially oxidized GQDs, ranging from M=4 to 7.
