DNA‐Based Adaptive Plasmonic Logic Gates

Self‐assembled plasmonic logic gates that read DNA molecules as input and return plasmonic chiroptical signals as outputs are reported. Such logic gates are achieved on a DNA‐based platform that logically regulate the conformation of a chiral plasmonic nanostructure, upon specific input DNA strands and internal computing units. With systematical designs, a complete set of Boolean logical gates are realized. Intriguingly, the logic gates could be endowed with adaptiveness, so they can autonomously alter their logics when the environment changes. As a demonstration, a logic gate that performs AND function at body temperature while OR function at cold storage temperature is constructed. In addition, the plasmonic chiroptical output has three distinctive states, which makes a three‐state molecular logic gate readily achievable on this platform. Such DNA‐based plasmonic logic gates are envisioned to execute more complex tasks giving these unique characteristics.     

Effect of ethyl‐bridged diphenylphosphine oxide on flame retardancy and thermal properties of epoxy resin

Three commercialized flame retardants, 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphinoyl)ethane (EDPO), 6,6‐(1,2‐phenethyl)bis‐6H‐dibenz[c,e][1,2]oxaphosphorin‐6,6‐dioxide (HTP‐6123), and hexa‐phenoxy‐cyclotriphosphazene (HPCTP), were used to prepare the flame retardant diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) epoxy resin (EP) under the same experimental conditions. The effects of T_g, thermal stability, and water absorption properties of EP caused by the three flame retardants were investigated and compared, together with their flame retardant efficiency. Results showed that the introduction of the three flame retardants improved the flame retardant performance of EP but led to decreases in T_g and decomposition temperature. EDPO showed higher flame retardant efficiency than the other two flame retardants. EP/EDPO showed higher thermal stability, better flame retardant performance, higher T_g value, and lower water absorption than EP/HTP‐6123 and EP/HPCTP. The study discovered that EDPO and HTP‐6123 primarily act through the gas phase flame retardant mechanism, while HPCTP is primarily driven by the condensed phase mechanism.     

Insight into 6π Electrocyclic Reactions of 1,8‐Dioxatetraene

A variety of benzofuranone‐based spiroisochromenes were originally designed and synthesized to gain insight into the oxa‐6π electrocyclic reaction of cis,cis‐1,8‐dioxatetraene for the first time. The stability of the 1,8‐dioxatetraene intermediate is governed by its steric congestion and can be fine‐tuned through modification of the backbone structure, leading to the reactivity differences in the 6π electrocyclic reaction and the emergence of photochromic properties.     

A 2D Wavy Parquet Architecture Based on the Biphenyl-3,3’,4,4’-tetracarboxylic Acid and Bis(2-benzimidazole)alkanes Ligands

A double-T-shaped ligand (H4BPTC) and bis(2-benzimidazole)alkanes as the spacers have been firstly used to direct the assembly of a 2D coordination polymer with wavy parquet network topology, [Zn(BPTC)0.5(H2C2EIm)(H2O)]n (1, C24H18ZnN4O5, Mr = 507.79, H4BPTC = biphenyl-3,3',4,4'-tetracarboxylic acid, H2C2EIm = 2,2'-(1,2-ethanediyl)-bis(1H-benzi- midazole), which was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with a = 1.1844(5), b = 1.4019(5), c = 1.4026(5) nm, β = 108.359(5)°, V = 2.2104(15) nm3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.526 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 1.156 mm-1, F(000) = 1040, S = 1.038, the final R = 0.0427 and wR = 0.0793 for 3834 reflections with I > 2σ(I). The compound units are linked through BPTC ligands into a wavilness parquet 2D layer and further connected into a 3D framework via π-π packing interactions between the adjacent H2C2EIm ligands and weak N-H…O hydrogen bonding between uncoordinated carboxylate and the nitrogen atoms of H2C2EIm as well as the free water molecules.     

“One pot” homogeneous synthesis of thermoplastic cellulose acetate-graft-poly(l-lactide) copolymers from unmodified cellulose

Using native cellulose as the starting material, cellulose acetate-graft-ploy (l-lactide) (CA-g-PLA) copolymers were successfully synthesized by “one-pot” process in an ionic liquid 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AmimCl). In this process, cellulose was first reacted with acetic anhydride, yielding cellulose acetate (CA), and then ring opening graft copolymerization of l-lactide was carried out from the residual hydroxyl groups of CA in the same solution using 4-dimethylaminopridine (DMAP) as the catalyst. Both acetyl and ploy (l-lactide) contents in CA-g-PLA copolymers could be well controlled by changing reaction conditions. The structures and thermal properties of CA-g-PLA copolymers were characterized. The glass transition temperature T_g of copolymers decreased with increasing PLA content. Compared to the pure PLA and cellulose-graft-PLA copolymers, the CA-g-PLA copolymers possessed better thermo mechanical properties in a temperature range of 60–130 °C. When the molar substitution of PLA (MS_PLA) was above 1.71, the CA-g-PLA copolymers exhibited thermoplastic behavior and could be processed by conventional thermal processing methods, such as injection molding and melt spinning.

It was found the photocatalytic activity of Er³⁺:Y₃Al₅O₁₂/TiO₂?CZrO₂ was superior to Er³⁺:Y₃Al₅O₁₂/TiO₂ and Er³⁺:Y₃Al₅O₁₂/ZrO₂. Therefore, the Er³⁺:Y₃Al₅O₁₂/TiO₂?CZrO₂ is a useful photocatalytic material for the wastewater treatment duo to efficient utilization of solar light.
