A general copper powder-catalyzed Ullmann-type reaction of 3-halo-4(1H)-quinolones with various nitrogen-containing nucleophiles

3-(N-Substituted) 4(1H)-quinolinones were synthesized using the copper-catalyzed Ullmann C-N bond forming strategy in moderate to quantitative yields. Starting from 3-halo-4(1H)-quinolones, various nucleophiles including amides, lactams, sulfonamides and NH-containing azoles have been used successfully. In all cases, the reactions take place rapidly in toluene and proceed by using copper powder as a catalyst, DMEDA as a ligand and K(2)CO(3) as a base. In addition, other related heterocycles such as 3-bromoquinolin-2(1H)-ones, 3-bromocoumarin, and 3,5-dibromo-2-pyridone show good to very high reactivity with various nucleophiles under our Cu/DMEDA catalyst system.     

Research about properties of beam optical focusing structures with double subwavelength metal slits

In this work, beam optical focusing structures capable of double side beam focusing are proposed. The relationships between focal intensity, focal length, focal width and the distance from optical source to lens structure are investigated and numerically simulated. Furthermore, a novel structure that is steadily operating in large wavelength domain is presented, whose properties are well described by comprehensive numerical simulations.

Low-Field NMR Relaxation Analysis of High-Pressure Ethane Adsorption in Mesoporous Silicas

Understanding the behaviour of short-chain hydrocarbons confined to porous solids informs the targeted extraction of natural resources from geological features, and underpins rational developments in separation, storage and catalytic conversion processes. Herein, we report the application of low-field (12.7 MHz) ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation measurements to characterise ethane dynamics within mesoporous silica materials exhibiting mean pore diameters between 6 and 50 nm. Our measurements provide NMR-based adsorption isotherms within the range 25–50 bar and at ambient temperature, incorporating the ethane condensation point (40.7 bar at our experimental temperature of 23.6 °C). The quantitative nature of the acquired data is validated via a direct comparison of NMR-derived excess adsorption capacities with ex situ gravimetric ethane adsorption measurements, which are demonstrated to agree to within 0.2 mmol g⁻¹ of the observed ethane capacity. NMR relaxation time distributions are further demonstrated as a means to decouple interparticle and mesopore dominated adsorption phenomena, with unexpectedly rapid relaxation rates associated with interparticle ethane gas confirmed via a direct comparison with NMR self-diffusion analysis.     

Lewis acid catalysis in heterolysis reactions of glycol ether radicals mimicking diol dehydratase-catalyzed reactions

Zinc bromide-catalyzed heterolysis reactions of glycol ether radicals were studied by laser flash photolysis methods, which gave the binding constants and catalytic rate constants for fragmentation. The Lewis acid-catalyzed heterolysis reactions mimic a putative reaction pathway in diol dehydratase-catalyzed reactions and are potentially useful polar processes for incorporation into conventional radical chain reaction sequences.

Explicit dimension estimates of attractors for the MHD equations in three-dimensional space

In this article we estimate the dimension of functional invariant sets that arise from the MHD equations, in terms of some physically relevant parameters. We follow the analysis of Constantin, Foias and Temam for 3D Navier-Stokes equations and derive comparable estimates.     

Characterizations of iron-rich clay modified electrodes and their applications in optical recognition

Optical recognition was studied with modified electrodes based on iron-rich clays. According to energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), several clay minerals including montmorillonite K10 (mont. K10) contain a lot of iron. Cyclic voltammetry suggested that electrochemically active iron species exist in most iron-rich clays and are likely to reside at different sites. The associated electrochemical activity is strongly pH-dependent and photosensitive. Under UV irradiation (λ ≤ 420 nm), these iron species were activated, and a pronounced photocurrent resulted. When these electrodes were flow-injected with 2-pyridylcarboxylic acids (λ_ab,max = 260 nm), the originally monotonic photocurrent could be modulated into a more recognizable a.c. pattern and the 260 nm optical signal became distinguishable. The photoresponse was highly reproducible, and the response time (t₉₀) was less than 10s.
