Synthesis and characterization of ZnxHg1?xSeyS1?y quantum dots

This article describes the synthesis of highly water-soluble Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y quantum dots (QDs) in aqueous solution through a simple photo-assisted reaction between ZnSe QDs and mercury(I) nitrate dihydrate [Hg₂(NO₃)₂·2H₂O]. In order to deduce the optimal synthesis conditions, we varied several parameters, including the concentrations of mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) and Hg₂(NO₃)₂·2H₂O, the illumination time, and the reaction temperature. When irradiated at temperatures below 80 °C, the ZnSe QDs reacted with the S²⁻ ions formed rapidly from MSA and the Hg²⁺ ions formed from Hg₂ ²⁺ ions to form Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y QDs through a process of photo-etching and surface combination. Under different conditions, we prepared a series of Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y QDs that emit fluorescence at the maximum wavelengths ranging from 405 to 760 nm. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry and transmission electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectrometry revealed that the content of Hg in the Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y QDs was greater when the synthesis was conducted at higher temperature. The Zn_0.88Hg_0.12Se_0.44S_0.56 QDs exhibit improved photostability than crude ZnSe QDs and possess long lifetimes (τ₁ ~ 38 ns and τ₂ ~ 158 ns).     

Coexistence of magnetism and superconductivity in the hole doped FeAs-based superconducting compound

The magnetic and superconducting properties of the Sm-doped FeAs-based superconducting compound were investigated under wide ranges of temperature and magnetic field. After the systematical magnetic ion substitution, the superconducting transition temperature decreases with increasing magnetic moment. The hysteresis loop of the La_0.87?xSm_xSr_0.13FeAsO sample shows a superconducting hysteresis and a paramagnetic background signal. The paramagnetic signal is mainly attributed to the Sm moments. The experiment demonstrates that the coexistence of magnetism and superconductivity in the hole doped FeAs-based superconducting compounds is possible. Unlike the electron doped FeAs-based superconducting compounds SmFeAsOF, the hole doped superconductivity is degraded by the substitution of La by Sm. The hole-doped and electron-doped sides are not symmetric.

Fixed point approach for weakly asymptotic stability of fractional differential inclusions involving impulsive effects

We prove the global solvability and weakly asymptotic stability for a semilinear fractional differential inclusion subject to impulsive effects by analyzing behavior of its solutions on the half-line. Our analysis is based on a fixed point principle for condensing multi-valued maps, which is employed for solution operator acting on the space of piecewise continuous functions. The obtained results will be applied to a lattice fractional differential system.     

Efficient glycosylation with glycosyl ortho-allylbenzoates as donors

Glycosylation reactions are significant as they provide access to model compounds that are useful for elucidating biochemical pathways. Herein, we describe the development of glycosyl ortho-alkynylbenzoates as novel, bench-top stable, and readily available glycosyl donors. Glycosylation is promoted by inexpensive trimethylsilyl triflate (TMSOTf) in combination with N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) under mild reaction conditions; hence, the novel glycosyl donors are promising reagents for the synthesis of glycosides.     

Stereoselective Synthesis of Trisubstituted Vinylboronates from Ketone Enolates Triggered by 1,3‐Metalate Rearrangement of Lithium Enolates

An unprecedented stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted vinylboronates is reported to proceed by direct borylation of lithium ketone enolates under transition‐metal‐free conditions. The stereospecific C?O borylation of lithium enolates was triggered by a carbonyl‐induced 1,3‐metalate rearrangement via a C‐bound boron enolate. DFT calculations and control experiments revealed that the stereoselectivity is controlled by sterics. A variety of stereospecific trisubstituted vinylboronates, together with several tetrasubstituted vinylboronates, were conveniently synthesized with the newly developed methodology. Based on the transformation of stereospecific vinylboronate, a single isomer of Dienestrol was efficiently obtained.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Luminescent Properties of Three Inorganic‐Organic Hybrid Frameworks Constructed from 4,5‐Imidazoledicarboxylate

Three inorganic‐organic hybrid frameworks [Mn(HIMDC)(4,4′‐bipyo)_0.5(H₂O)]_n (1) , [Cd(H₂IMDC)₂(2,2′‐bipyo)] (2) and [Ca(HIMDC)(H₂O)₂·H₂O]_n (3) (H₃IMDC = 4,5‐imidazoledicarboxylate; 4,4′‐bipyo = 4,4′‐bipyridine‐N,N′‐dioxide; 2,2′‐bipyo= 2,2′‐bipyridine‐N,N′‐dioxide) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by the elemental analyses, IR spectra, TG analysis and the single crystal diffraction. Both compounds 1 and 3 exhibit 2D layers while 2 is a monomer. It is noteworthy that compound 2 exhibits strong fluorescent emission in the solid state at room temperature.     

Dual Photosensitizer Coupled Three-Dimensional Metal-Covalent Organic Frameworks for Efficient Photocatalytic Reactions

In this work, we innovatively assembled two types of traditional photosensitizers, that is pyridine ruthenium/ferrum (Ru(bpy)₃²⁺/Fe(bpy)₃²⁺) and porphyrin/metalloporphyrin complex (2HPor/ZnPor) by covalent linkage to get a series of dual photosensitizer-based three-dimensional metal-covalent organic frameworks (3D MCOFs), which behaved strong visible light-absorbing ability, efficient electron transfer and suitable band gap for highly efficient photocatalytic hydrogen (H₂) evolution. Rubpy-ZnPor COF achieved the highest H₂ yield (30 338 μmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹) with apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) of 9.68 %@420 nm, which showed one of the best performances among all reported COF based photocatalysts. Furthermore, the in situ produced H₂ was successfully tandem used in the alkyne hydrogenation with ≈99.9 % conversion efficiency. Theoretical calculations reveal that both the two photosensitizer units in MCOFs can be photoexcited and thus contribute optimal photocatalytic activity. This work develops a general strategy and shows the great potential of using multiple photosensitive materials in the field of photocatalysis.
