Total Syntheses of (+)‐Sarcophytin, (+)‐Chatancin, (−)‐3‐Oxochatancin,and (−)‐Pavidolide B: A Divergent Approach

A concise and divergent approach for the total syntheses of four cembrane diterpenoids, namely (+)‐sarcophytin, (+)‐chatancin, (?)‐3‐oxochatancin, and (?)‐pavidolide B, has been developed, and it also led to the structural revision of (?)‐isosarcophytin. The key steps of the strategy feature a double Mukaiyama Michael addition/elimination, a Helquist annulation, two substrate‐controlled facial‐selective hydrations, and a pinacol rearrangement. The described syntheses not only achieved these natural products in an efficient manner, but also provided insight into the biosynthetic relationship between the two different skeletons.     

Synthesis,characterization, and electrochemistry of monophosphine‐containing diiron propane‐1,2‐dithiolate complexes related to the active site of [FeFe]‐hydrogenases

Five monophosphine‐substituted diiron propane‐1,2‐dithiolate complexes as the active site models of [FeFe]‐hydrogenases have been synthesized and characterized. Reactions of complex [Fe₂(CO)₆{μ‐SCH₂CH(CH₃)S}] ( 1 ) with a monophosphine ligand tris(4‐methylphenyl)phosphine, diphenyl‐2‐pyridylphosphine, tris(4‐chlorophenyl)phosphine, triphenylphosphine, or tris(4‐fluorophenyl)phosphine in the presence of the oxidative agent Me₃NO·2H₂O gave the monophosphine‐substituted diiron complexes [Fe₂(CO)₅(L){μ‐SCH₂CH(CH₃)S}] [L = P(4‐C₆H₄CH₃)₃, 2 ; Ph₂P(2‐C₅H₄N), 3 ; P(4‐C₆H₄Cl)₃, 4 ; PPh₃, 5 ; P(4‐C₆H₄F)₃, 6 ] in 81%–94% yields. Complexes 2 – 6 have been characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopy, and X‐ray crystallography. In addition, electrochemical studies revealed that these complexes can catalyze the reduction of protons to H₂ in the presence of HOAc.     

Pt Nanoparticle‐modified Carbon Fiber Microelectrode for Selective Electrochemical Sensing of Hydrogen Peroxide

We report a simple approach to the production of carbon fiber‐based amperometric microbiosensors for selective detection of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), which was achieved by electrometallization of carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMs) by electrodeposition of Pt nanoparticles. The Pt‐carbon hybrid sensing interface provided a sensitivity of 7711±587 μA ? mM^?1 ? cm^?2, a detection limit of 0.53±0.16 μM (S/N=3), a linear range of 0.8 μM–8.6 mM, and a response time of <2 sec. The morphologies of the Pt nanoparticle‐modified CFMs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. To achieve selectivity, permseletive layers, polyphenylenediamine (PPD) and Nafion, were deposited resulting in exclusion of the anionic and cationic interferents, ascorbic acid and dopamine, respectively, at their physiologically relevant concentrations. The resultant sensors displayed a sensitivity to hydrogen peroxide of 1381±72 μA ? mM^?1 ? cm^?2, and a detection limit of 0.86±0.19 μM (S/N=3). This simple and rapid metallization method converts carbon fiber microelectrodes, which are readily accessible, to microscale Pt electrodes in 2 min, providing a platform for oxidase‐based amperometric biosensors with improved spatial resolution over more commonly used platinum electrode array microprobes.

Determination of silver(I) ion in water samples by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after preconcentration with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction

A method was developed for the determination of silver ion (Ag) by combining dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction preconcentration with graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. Diethyldithiocarbamate was used as a chelating agent, and carbon tetrachloride and methanol as extraction and dispersive solvent. Factors influencing the extraction efficiency of Ag and its subsequent determination were studied and optimized. The detection limit is 12 ng L^?1 (3 s) with an enrichment factor of 132, and the relative standard deviation is 3.5% (n?=?7, at 1.0 ng mL^?1). The method was successfully applied to the determination of trace amounts of Ag in water samples.

Giant extended pi-conjugated dendrimers containing the 10,15-dihydro-5H-diindeno[1,2-a;1',2'-c]fluorene chromophore: synthesis, NMR behaviors, optical properties, and electroluminescence

This paper reports the facile synthetic strategy of a series of novel pi-conjugated dendrimers (G0 and G1) based on 10,15-dihydro-5H-diindeno[1,2-a;1',2'-c]fluorene (truxene) in which the benzene cores are generated "in-situ" from acetyl aromatics by the acid-promoted cyclotrimerizations. The unique NMR behaviors, physical properties, and electroluminescence device applications are also presented. Besides the purity, the structure, and the confirmation of the successful formation and isolation of desired compounds by clear assignments of every molecule by (1)H and (13)C and 2D NMR characterizations, several astonishing NMR behaviors have been observed in various solvents. For 1, chemical shift values belonging to H-2' of hexyl substituents move to the most upfield; however, such chemical shift values move from 0.48 to 0.85 ppm when pyridine-d(5) or benzene-d(6) is used as solvent. Our dendrimers as the emissive layers in organic light-emitting diodes gave blue-green light with an external quantum efficiency up to 0.16% both for G0 and for G1 in nitrogen, respectively, which exhibit unique electroluminescence spectra in comparison with their corresponding photoluminescence ones.     

Improved Transistor Performance by Modulating Molecular Packing with Donor and Acceptor Moieties

The joint of the donor and acceptor moieties allows a facile and effective strategy to develop novel organic conjugated materials. However, few pieces of work report the understanding of the donor–acceptor interactions at the molecular level. Herein, we developed three small molecules containing one acceptor motif with different amounts of the donor unit. By combining theoretical calculations and energy level characterization, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) levels of the three molecules were proven to be almost identical. The molecular packing modes were evaluated from crystal structure prediction. Owing to the donor–acceptor interactions, the packing mode can be tuned from a 1D slipped stacking to a 2D brick layer. The 2D molecular packing and charge transport channel endowed the materials a higher electron mobility of 3.29 cm² V^?1 s^?1 in the single‐crystal field‐effect transistors after such modulation.     

Stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane containing carrier PC-88A and HNO3 for the extraction of Sm3+

Stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane system（SDHFLM） containing feed phase adding acetate buffer solution and dispersion solution with HNO₃ solution as the stripping solution and membrane solution of 2-ethyl hexyl phosphoric acid-mono-2-ethylhexyl ester（PC-88A） dissolved in kerosene,has been studied for the extraction of Sm³⁺.Many factors including pH value, volume ratio of membrane solution to stripping solution（OAV） and carrier concentration on Sm³⁺ extraction were investigated. Experimental results indicate that the optimum extraction conditions of Sm³⁺ were obtained as that PC-88A concentration was 0.120 mol/L,and OAV was 1.00 in the dispersion phase,and pH value was 4.80 in the feed phase.When initial Sm³⁺ concentration was 1.20×10^-4 mol/L,the extraction percentage of Sm³⁺ was up to 92.8%in 160 min.
