Electrochemical Preparation of Poly(Malachite Green) Film Modified Nafion‐Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode and Its Electrocatalytic Behavior Towards NADH,Dopamine and Ascorbic Acid

Poly(malachite green) film modified Nafion‐coated glassy carbon electrodes have been prepared by potentiodynamic cycling in malachite green solution. The pH of polymerisation solution has only minor effect on film formation. Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) was used to monitor the growth of the poly(malachite green) film. Cyclic voltammogram of the poly(malachite green) film shows a redox couple with well‐defined peaks. The redox response of the modified electrode was found to be depending on the pH of the contacting solution. The peak potentials were shifted to a less positive region with increasing pH and the dependence of the peak potential was found to be 56 mV per pH unit. The electrocatalytic behavior of poly(malachite green) film modified Nafion‐coated glassy carbon electrodes was tested towards oxidation of NADH, dopamine, and ascorbic acid. The oxidation of dopamine and ascorbic acid occurred at less positive potential on poly(malachite green) film compared to bare glassy carbon electrode. In the case of NADH, the overpotential was reduced substantially on modified electrode. Finally, the feasibility of utilizing poly(malachite green) film electrode in analytical estimation of ascorbic acid was demonstrated in flow injection analysis.     

Cyanato-copper(II) complexes with organic ligands,Part XXIII. Properties and structure characterization of cyanato-copper(II) complexes with aminopyridines

Summary New cyanato-copper(II) complexes with aminopyridines (ampy) were prepared and studied;viz. Cu(NCO)₂(3-ampy)₂ (- and -form), Cu(NCO)₂(3-ampy)₂(H₂O), Cu(NCO)₂(4ampy)₂, and Cu(NCO)₂(2-ampy). According to physical results, the Cu(NCO)₂L₂ complexes exhibitpseudo-octahedral structures with amine nitrogens or cyanate oxygens occupying axial sites. For - and -Cu(NCO)₂(3-ampy)₂ the crystal structure reorganization is connected with a change in axial distortion. The compound Cu(NCO)₂(2-ampy) is square pyramidal or — more probably — rhombic octahedral and its strong antiferromagnetism reveals the N-bridging function of the NCO groups.Part XXII, Ref. 9.     

Kinetic investigation of the textile bleaching process

Volumetric H₂-uptake measurements on an Mo₂N (79 m²g^–1) sample reduced at 673 K have been carried out and the uptake isotherms in the temperature range of 308–623 K have been determined. Both the total and reversible hydrogen uptake increased with the uptake temperature. The irreversible hydrogen uptake increased abruptly when the uptake temperature was raised up to 423 K. The maximum of irreversible hydrogen uptake was measured at 473 K. The H_IR/Mo ratio calculated from the uptakes obtained in the temperature range of 308–623 K varies in the range of 0.0010–0.0202. One possible mechanism for hydrogen adsorption is proposed to be heterolytic dissociation on Mo-N paris, in which the molybdenum atoms are in unsaturated coordination.

Investigation on the Performance of Supported Molybdenum Carbide for the Partial Oxidation of Methane

The performance of uspported and unsupported molybdenum carbide for the partial oxidation of methane (POM) to syngas was investgated.An evaluation of the catalysts indicates that bulk molybdenum carbied has a higher methane conversion during the initial stage but a lower selectivity to CO and H2/CO ratio in the products.The rapid deactivation of the catalyst is also a significant problem.However,the supported molybdenum carbide catalyst shows a much higher methane conversion,increased selectivity and significantly improved catalytic stability.The characterization by XRD and BET specific area measurements depict an improved dispersion of molybdenum carbide when using alumina as a carrier.The bulk or the supported molybdenum carbide exists in the β-Mo2C phase,while it is transformed into molybdenum dioxide postcatalysis which is an improtant cause of molybdenum carbide deactivation.     

Possible Mechanisms of Intercalation

Recent knowledge of the kinetics and intercalation mechanisms are summarized and accompanied by examples of intercalation reactions of water and ethanol into anhydrous vanadyl phosphate and redox intercalation of alkali metal cations into vanadyl phosphate dihydrate. Three possible mechanisms of intercalation are presented which are based on: (i) a concept of exfoliation of layers; (ii) the formation of stages and randomly stacked layers; (iii) co-existence of intercalated and non-intercalated parts of crystals of the host separated by an advancing phase boundary. The corresponding kinetic curves are ascribed to mechanisms (ii) and (iii).     

Reduction and reconstruction of Co3O4 nanocubes upon carbon deposition

We describe a synthetic investigation on the formation of carbon nanofibers using a preshaped free-standing metal-oxide catalyst (single-crystal cobalt oxide (Co(3)O(4)) nanocubes). In reacting with acetylene (C(2)H(2)) vapor, Co(3)O(4) nanocubes are reduced and reconstructed into metallic cobalt. The resultant metal catalyst with a 2-fold symmetry leads to a bilateral base growth for carbon nanofibers. Our findings indicate that an understanding of catalyst-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD) mechanisms can be acquired, when the shape, size, and crystal orientation of pristine metal catalysts are made known to the CVD process. By tracing their evolutional changes in structure and composition, the shape-designed model catalysts may offer new opportunities for mechanistic investigations on the chemical reactivity of nanoparticles, general catalyst-assisted material synthesis, and metal intercalation chemistry.     

Coating Carbon Nanotubes with Europium Oxide

Carbon nanotubes (CNTS) coating with europium oxide by a simple method is reported in this letter for the first time. The CNTS were refluxed in a solution of nitric acid containing europium nitrate, and the pH value was subsequently ajusted with ammonia solution. At last, the mixture was filtered and annealed. The TEM micrograph showed that the CNTS were covered with a uniform thin layer with thickness of about 15 nm. The XRD results revealed that the CNTS were coated with europium oxide.
