二氧化碳—环氧丙烷—甲苯二异氰酸酯的三元共聚

二氧化碳和环氧丙烷(PO)在阴离子配位催化剂,如二乙基锌和等摩尔的水作用下,可接式(1)发生共聚。但产物聚丙撑碳酸酯(PPC)的热稳定性较差。改进途径之一是在反应中引入甲苯二异氰酸酯(TDI)进行三元共聚。本文报导在双金属阴离子配位催化剂PBM存在下合成一种热稳定性优于PPC的聚碳酸酯聚氨酯(PCPU)的研究结果(式2)。     

Synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic properties of tetranuclear nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with tridentate Schiff bases

Two cubane-type tetranuclear nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes, [Ni₄(L¹)₄(CH₃OH)₄] (1) and [Cu₄(L²)₄]·H₂O (2), where L¹ and L² are the dianionic forms of the tridentate Schiff bases 4-nitro-2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol (H₂L¹) and 5-methoxy-2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol (H₂L²), respectively, have been synthesized and characterized by physicochemical methods and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The magnetic properties of the complexes show the presence of ferromagnetic interactions for complex 1 and antiferromagnetic interactions for complex 2, mediated by hydroxyl bridges.     

Facile electrochemical synthesis of a conducting copolymer from 5-aminoindole and EDOT and its use as Pt catalyst support for formic acid electrooxidation

5-Aminoindole and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) were copolymerized electrochemically on a carbon cloth (CC) electrode in an aqueous sulfuric acid solution. The as-prepared copolymer was characterized by cyclic voltammogram, SEM, and UV-vis and FT-IR spectra through which the electrochemical properties, structure, and composition of the as-obtained copolymer were determined. The electrochemical activity and stability of the as-formed copolymer are significantly improved in comparison with poly(5-aminoindole) due to the incorporation of EDOT units into the conjugated chain. The copolymer film-modified CC electrode was used as substrate for Pt particle deposition (denoted as Pt/copolymer/CC), and then, its catalytic activity towards formic acid electrooxidation was studied. Experimental results indicate that the catalytic activity of Pt/copolymer/CC towards formic acid electrooxidation is enhanced in comparison with that of Pt/homopolymer/CC, which can be attributed to the homogeneous distribution of Pt nanoparticles on the copolymer/CC substrate and the improved electrochemical activity of the copolymer film.     

Improved molten salt synthesis and structure evolution upon cycling of 0.5Li2MnO3·0.5LiCoO2 in lithium-ion batteries

The Li-rich cathode material Li_1.2Co_0.4Mn_0.4O₂(=0.5Li₂MnO₃·0.5LiCoO₂) was prepared by an improved molten salt method. The effects of sintering temperature and time on the physical and electrochemical properties of Li_1.2Co_0.4Mn_0.4O₂ were investigated. With increasing sintering temperature, excellent crystallinity and a stable structure are obtained, which lead to excellent electrochemical properties. However, the sample sintered at 900 °C has poor performance because its large powder diameter prolongs the transportation length of Li⁺ ions. Higher specific surface areas are obtained when samples are sintered at 850 °C for a shorter time, which leads to more activity and excellent charge/discharge capacity. The evolution of a derivative peak at about 3.0 V in the differential capacity (dQ/dV) curves is observed along with the formation of a spinel-like phase, which is verified by analysis using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope. Therefore, it is a simple and quick method to characterize the structure evolution upon cycling of Li-rich cathode materials by means of analysis of the derivative peak.

Analysis of Biological Samples Using Paper Spray Mass Spectrometry: An Investigation of Impacts by the Substrates, Solvents and Elution Methods

Paper spray has been developed as a fast sampling ionization method for direct analysis of raw biological and chemical samples using mass spectrometry (MS). Quantitation of therapeutic drugs in blood samples at high accuracy has also been achieved using paper spray MS without traditional sample preparation or chromatographic separation. The paper spray ionization is a process integrated with a fast extraction of the analyte from the raw sample by a solvent, the transport of the extracted analytes on the paper, and a spray ionization at the tip of the paper substrate with a high voltage applied. In this study, the influence on the analytical performance by the solvent–substrate systems and the selection of the elution methods was investigated. The protein hemoglobin could be observed from fresh blood samples on silanized paper or from dried blood spots on silica-coated paper. The on-paper separation of the chemicals during the paper spray was characterized through the analysis of a mixture of the methyl violet 2B and methylene blue. The mode of applying the spray solvent was found to have a significant impact on the separation. The results in this study led to a better understanding of the analyte elution, on-paper separation, as well as the ionization processes of the paper spray. This study also helps in establishing a guideline for optimizing the analytical performance of paper spray for direct analysis of target analytes using mass spectrometry.     

CdS形貌可控制备及其可见光分解水产氢性能

以还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)作为硫源和结构导向剂水热法“一壶”制备系列硫化镉(CdS)光催化材料,采用透射电镜(HRTEM)、场发射扫描电镜(FESEM)、X射线衍射仪(XRD)、紫外可见漫反射(UV-Vis)、荧光光谱(PL)、比表面分析仪(BET)和光解水产氢反应等对催化材料的微观表面结构、光吸收性能以及光催化性能进行了研究。结果表明：通过调节反应物的nCd/nS比和水热温度等参数可控的制备出分散性好的CdS实心纳米球(s-CdS)、空心纳米球(h-CdS)以及纳米棒(r-CdS)等不同微观形貌的光催化材料。对比研究了不同形貌光催化剂的光解水产氢的宏观性能,发现s-CdS产氢活性最高,h-Cd次之,r-CdS最差。这一结果可归结于构成实心球表面亚微晶的粒径相比其它形貌的小,导致电子-空穴对快速迁移至表面并与溶液反应,抑制体相复合,导致生成的氢气量大大的提高。     

基于自交联杂萘联苯聚芳醚阴离子交换膜制备及其物理化学性质

Preparation and application of a novel orotic acid chelating resin for removal of Cu(Ⅱ) in aqueous solutions

A novel chelating resin OABA,capable of removing Cu(Ⅱ) from aqueous solution,was synthesized via the reaction of macroporous chloromethylated PS-DVB copolymer beads with orotic acid.The elemental analysis(EA),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),and scanning electron microscopy microscope-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(SEM-EDS) were used in the characterization of the synthesized chelating resin.Multiple,static batch adsorption experiments were conducted at different initial concentrations and temperatures.OABA showed good adsorption capacity for Cu(Ⅱ) and the equilibrium data could be well matched with the Freundlich isotherm model.Coexisting sodium chloride and calcium chloride in solutions favored the Cu(Ⅱ) adsorption.Moreover,the desorption process of Cu(Ⅱ) was tested and over 90%regeneration efficiency for the spent OABA was achieved at ammonia concentrations ranging from 1.0%to 2.0%.The results suggested that OABA would be a potential alternative adsorbent for Cu(Ⅱ),even with other heavy metal ion treatments of wastewater.     

Macrocycles consisting of flexible and rigid segments: enforced folding and host-guest inclusion exciplex formation

Macrocycles consisting of two tris(phenylene ethynylene) (or tri-PE) units connected via two flexible linkers adopt an ‘unfolded’ conformation that is converted into a folded conformation upon introducing intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction. These foldable macrocycles are capable of forming inclusion charge transfer (CT) complex with electron-deficient small aromatics.
