The influence of strain on structural and electronic properties of zig-zag type of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) has been studied by density functional theory calculations. The variations of HOMO–LUMO gaps, geometrical parameters, cohesive energy, radial buckling, isodensity surfaces of the HOMOs and LUMOs, electrophilicity index, chemical potential, and chemical hardness and softness have been investigated for BNNTs at different strains. Our results show that the effect of axial strain on the electronic and structural properties of zig-zag BNNTs depends on the diameter as well as the length of the nanotube. 相似文献
The VO(IV) complexes of tridentate ONN Schiff ligands were synthesized and characterized by IR, UV–Vis and elemental analysis. The electrochemical properties of the vanadyl complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. A good correlation was observed between the oxidation potentials and the electron-withdrawing character of the substituents on the Schiff base ligands, showing the following trend: MeO < H < Br < NO2. The thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermoanalysis (DTA) of the VO(IV) complexes were carried out in the range of 20–700 °C. The VOL1(OH2) and VOL2(OH2) decomposed in three steps, whereas the VOL3(OH2) and VOL4(OH2) complexes decomposed in two steps. The thermal decomposition of these complexes is closely related to the nature of the Schiff base ligands and proceeds via first-order kinetics. The structures of compounds were determined by ab initio calculations. The optimized molecular geometry and atomic charges were calculated using MP2 method with 6-31G(d) basis. The results suggested that, in the complexes, V(IV) ion is in square-pyramid N2O3 coordination geometry. Also the bond lengths and angles were studied and compared. 相似文献
A simple and eco-friendly synthesis of the biologically important spirooxindole scaffold was done by the reaction of isatin with activated pyrazolones in the presence of a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid in water at room temperature. A variety of symmetrical spirooxindole derivatives were obtained with excellent yields within short reaction time. This method is of great value because of its environmentally benign character, high yield, and easy handling. 相似文献
A selective and highly sensitive high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method has been developed for determination of ezetimibe concentrations in human plasma. Ezetimibe was extracted from plasma with ethyl acetate followed by evaporation of the organic layer and, then, reconstitution of the residue in mobile phase before injection to chromatograph. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-ammonium acetate (10 mM, pH 3.0), 75:25 (v/v). An aliquot of 10 μL was chromatographically analyzed on a prepacked Zorbax XDB-ODS C18 column (2.1 × 100 mm, 3.5 micron). Detection of analytes was achieved by mass spectrometry with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) interface in the negative ion mode operated under the multiple-reaction monitoring mode (m/z transition: ezetimibe 408–271). Standard curves were linear (r = 0.998) over the wide ezetimibe concentration range of 0.05–30.0 ng mL−1 with acceptable accuracy and precision. The limit of detection was 0.02 ng mL−1. The validated LC–APCI–MS method has been used successfully throughout a bioequivalence study on an ezetimibe generic product in 24 healthy male volunteers.
A novel method for the selective electromembrane extraction (EME) of U6+ prior to fluorometric determination has been proposed. The effect of extraction conditions including supported liquid membrane (SLM) composition, extraction time and extraction voltage were investigated. An SLM composition of 1% di-2-ethyl hexyl phosphonic acid in nitrophenyl octyl ether (NPOE) showed good selectivity, recovery and enrichment factor. The best performance was achieved at an extraction potential of 80 volts and an extraction time of 14 minutes Under the optimized conditions, a linear range from 1 to 1000 ng mL−1 and LOD of 0.1 ng mL−1 were obtained for the determination of U6+. The EME method showed good performance in sample cleanup and the reduction of the interfering effects of Mn2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Ni2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Cu2+, Cl− and PO43− ions during fluorometric determination of uranium in real water samples. The recoveries above 54% and enrichment factors above 64.7 were obtained by the proposed method for real sample analysis. 相似文献
Efficient method for direct preparation of 14‐aryl‐14‐H‐dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes through condensation of β‐naphthol with various aromatic aldehydes in the presence of the catalytic amount of [H—NMP]+[HSO4]? under microwave irradiation was described. This method has the advantages such as; very easy reaction workup, absolute separation of catalyst from the reaction mixture and smooth recyclability of catalyst. In this reaction 14‐aryl‐14‐H‐dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes were obtained as desired products in excellent yields and short reaction times via green and one‐pot procedure. 相似文献
Heterogeneous catalysts were developed by supporting palladium nanoparticles on modified cross‐linked polyacrylamide and successfully applied in Suzuki‐Miyaura cross‐coupling reactions. These catalysts are stable to air and moisture, and no sign of metal leaching was detected during the reactions as judged by elemental analysis of palladium by ICP‐OES technique and hot filtration test, which demonstrates the heterogeneous character of the catalysts. High yields of desired products were resulted by using these phosphine‐free catalysts at temperatures below 80 °C without aid of any additional ligands. The heat stability of the catalysts at the operating temperature was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). These catalysts are easy to use and cost effective. They can be recovered from reaction mixture by a simple filtration and reused in more successive reactions without significant loss in activity. The catalyst activity was restored by an ultrasonication program after deactivation in 10 cycles. 相似文献
