Constructions of partitioned difference families

Partitioned difference families (PDFs) arise from constructions of optimum constant composition codes. In this paper, a number of infinite classes of PDFs are constructed, based on known cyclotomic difference families in GF(q). A general approach which obtains PDFs from difference packings and coverings in abelian group is also presented.     

Synthesis of Hollow-flower-ball-like Cd4(OH)5Cl3 Using Microwave Irradiation Method

Novel mesoporous hollow‐flower‐ball‐like Cd₄Cl₃(OH)₅ was selectively synthesized using microwave‐irradiation process. The structure of the resultant Cd₄Cl₃(OH)₅ was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray powder diffraction (XRD), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and low temperature nitrogen sorption isotherms. The concentration of the reagents and the reaction time affect the formation of this hollow‐flower‐ball‐like structure of this complex. The formation of this interesting structure may be attributed to the self‐assembly of smaller inorganic building blocks during the crystallization process of Cd₄(OH)₅Cl₃ crystals. The photocatalytic activity of as‐prepared Cd₄(OH)₅Cl₃ was evaluated by the degradation of salicylic acid and 4‐chlorophenol in water under UV‐irradiation.     

Characterization of coal oil using three-dimensional excitation and emission matrix fluorescence spectroscopy

Three-dimensional （3D） excitation-emission matrix （EEM） fluorescence spectroscopy is applied to characterize the coal oil. The results show that the 3D fluorescence spectra of coal oil in aqueous solution mainly have one broad peak. This peak is identified at the excitation/emission wavelengths of 270/290 nm. The relation between the fluorescence intensity and the concentration of coal oil is also studied. When the concentration lies between 2 - 2000 ppm, the relation between the fluorescence intensity and the concentration of coal oil is well linear. The nature of solvents significantly affects the EEM fluorescence of coal oil.     

双压电片变形反射镜样镜的设计与研制

双压电片变形反射镜作为波前校正器具有结构简单、变形量大、成本低及制造周期短的优点,能代替传统分立式变形镜从而降低自适应光学系统的成本.为验证工艺的可行性和了解双压电片变形反射镜的性能,制造了一块20单元的试验样镜.样镜采用了双层压电陶瓷的结构,其中一层作整体离焦电极以校正大幅值的离焦像差.利用Veeco干涉仪测最了样镜单元电极影响函数,分析了其埘前36项Zernike像差的校正能力.结果表明,样镜对离焦像差能获得高达8μm以上的校正量,对其它高阶像差也能适量校正,但校正能力随空间频率升高而降低,显示出其适合校正低阶像差的特性.此外,讨论了不同有效孔径下样镜对Zernike像差的拟合能力.     

Identification of metabolites of Danggui Buxue Tang in rat urine by liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry

A method coupling liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (LC/ESI‐TOF/MS) has been developed for rapid and sensitive analysis of rat urinary metabolite profile of Danggui Buxue Tang (DBT), a well‐known Chinese herbal formula. After oral administration of DBT, urine samples were collected during 0–24 h, and then pretreated by solid‐phase extraction. A total of 68 compounds including 13 parent compounds and 55 metabolites were detected in the drug‐containing urines compared with blank urines. The total analytical time was less than 20 min. Metabolites of DBT were identified using dynamic adjustment of the fragmentor voltage to produce structure‐relevant fragment ions. By using this approach, the mass accuracy of precursor and fragment ions was typically within ±5 ppm of the theoretical values, and enabled the identification of 43 metabolites including 27 isoflavanoid and 16 phthalide metabolites. Our results indicated that glucuronidation and sulfation were the major metabolic pathways of isoflavonoids, while glutathione conjugation, glucuronidation and sulfation were the main metabolic pathways of phthalides. No saponin‐related metabolites were detected. The results of the present study provided important structural information relating to the metabolism of DBT. Furthermore, this work demonstrated the potential of the LC/ESI‐TOF/MS approach for identification of metabolites from Chinese herbal medicines in urine.

Synthesis of a water-soluble cationic chiral diamine ligand bearing a diguanidinium and application in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation

A novel water-soluble cationic N-monosulfonated chiral diamine ligand diguanidinium 1c was easily prepared from (R,R)-DPEN and its rhodium complex and was successfully applied in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of prochiral ketones and imines in water by using sodium formate and formic acid as co-hydrogen donors. Various substrates were reduced with high yields and good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee).

Enantioselective Michael addition of 3-ethyl carboxylate substituted pyrazolones to 5-alkenyl thiazolones catalyzed by squaramide organocatalyst

Asymmetric Michael addition between 3-ethyl carboxylate substituted pyrazolones and 5-alkenylthiazolones catalyzed by a series of chiral bifunctional hydrogen bonding organocatalysts was investigated. Good yields (up to 96%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) were achieved by using a squaramide containing piperidine group derived from (1S, 2S)-cyclohexanediamine. This strategy provides facile access to a diverse library of thiazole-pyrazolone derivatives with potential bioactivity.     

The twoscale asymptotic error analysis for piezoelectric problems in the quasi-periodic structure

Applications for piezoelectric efect have grown rapidly,and piezoelectric materials play important roles in countless areas of modern life.By means of twoscale method and coupled boundary layer,some new kinds of twoscale asymptotic expansions for solutions to the electrical potential and the displacement in quasi-periodic structure under coupled piezoelectric efect are derived,and the homogenization constants of piezoelectric materials are presented.The coupled twoscale relation between the electrical potential and the displacement is set up,and some improved asymptotic error estimates are analyzed.
