A Re2O7 catalyzed cycloetherification of monoallylic diols

A Re₂O₇ catalyzed cycloetherification of monoallylic diols is described. The reaction features short reaction time, mild reaction conditions and exclusive E selectivity. A wide range of monoallylic alcohols with alkyl or aryl substituents on olefin smoothly undergo ring closure to deliver corresponding oxa-heterocycles. The reaction is also operationally simple and not sensitive to air and moisture.     

Progress in fluorene-based wide-bandgap steric semiconductors

Molecular bulks are favorable for the thermal and morphological stability in organic wide-bandgap semiconducting polymers with potential applications in both information and energy electronics. In this review, we present our progress in the design of fluorene-based bulky semiconductors with a fractal four-element pattern. Firstly, we established one-pot methods to spirofluorenes, especially spiro[fluorene-9,9′-xanthene](SFX) serving as the next-generation spiro-based semiconductors. Secondly, we observed the supramolecular forces at the bulky groups and discovered the supramolecular steric hindrance(SSH) effect on polymorphisms, nanocrystals as well as device performance. Thus, a synergistically molecular attractor-repulsor theory(SMART) was proposed for the control of nanocrystal morphology, thin film phase and morphology. Thirdly, the third possible type of defects has been identified to generate green band(g-band) emission in widebandgap semiconductors by the introduction of molecular strain design of cyclofluorene. Finally, the first bulky polydiarylfluorene with highly crystalline and β conformation was achieved by an attractor-repulsor design of tadpole-shape monomer, which offered an effective platform to fabricate stable wide-bandgap semiconducting devices. All the discoveries offer the solid basis to break through bottlenecks of organic/polymer wide-bandgap semiconductors by the improvements of overall performances.     

Multi-bond network hydrogels with robust mechanical and self-healable properties

Multi-bond network(MBN) which contains a single network with hierarchical cross-links is a suggested way to fabricate robust hydrogels. In order to reveal the roles of different cross-links with hierarchical bond energy in the MBN, here we fabricate poly(acrylic acid) physical hydrogels with dual bond network composed of ionic cross-links between carboxylFe3+ interactions and hydrogen bonds, and compare these dually cross-linked hydrogels with singly and ternarily cross-linked hydrogels. Simple models are employed to predict the tensile property, and the results confirm that the multi-bond network with hierarchical distribution in the bond energy of cross-links endows hydrogel with effective energy-dissipating mechanism. Moreover, the dually cross-linked MBN gels exhibit excellent mechanical properties(tensile strength up to 500 k Pa, elongation at break ~ 2400%) and complete self-healing after being kept at 50 °C for 48 h. The factors on promoting self-healing are deeply explored and the dynamic multi-bonds are regarded to trigger the self-healing along with the mutual diffusion of long polymer chains and ferric ions.

Studies on the structure and catalytic performance of Cu-Zn-Al catalyst prepared by liquid-phase preparation technology under different heat treatment atmosphere

Cu-Zn-Al slurry catalysts were prepared using a complete liquid-phase preparation technology under different heat treatment atmospheres. The catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscope, and N2 adsorption-desorption. Their application in the single-step synthesis of dimethyl ether from syngas was also investigated. The results indicate that the type of heat treatment atmosphere has an influence on the Cu species and the Cu⁰/Cu⁺ ratio on the catalyst surface. Moreover, the final Cu/Zn ratio on the catalyst surface is mainly dependent on the composition and reaction environment of the catalyst and little on the type of heat treatment atmosphere. The prepared catalysts can suppress sintering of active sites at high temperatures, and the type of heat treatment atmosphere mainly affects the capability of the catalyst for methanol synthesis. The catalysts perform best using N2 as the heat treatment atmosphere.     

Quantitative characterization of membrane formation process of alginate–chitosan microcapsules by GPC

The semi-permeable membrane of alginate–chitosan (AC) microcapsules has been proven important to control the microcapsule stability and selective substance diffusion rate. Therefore, a novel and operable methodology based on gel permeation chromatography (GPC) was established for quantitative characterization of the membrane formation process, so as to provide guidance on performance improvement of AC microcapsules in biomedical applications. Not only the molecular weight (M_w) and its distribution of chitosan can be obtained by GPC, but also the area integral of molecular weight peaks can be linearly correlated to chitosan concentration in certain range. The dynamic membrane formation process was then obtained by quantitatively analyzing reaction amount of chitosan with time, which showed that for chitosan molecules with wide M_w distribution, only parts of molecules bind with alginate to form microcapsule membrane. Moreover, the contribution of chitosan molecules participating in the membrane formation process was also different. These new findings, therefore, are helpful for adjusting and controlling the membrane formation process and properties of microcapsule membrane.     

Homoleptic dirhodium tetraoctanoate and its pyridine adduct: synthesis and crystal structures

Dirhodium tetraoctanoate (1), without any exogenous axial ligands, has been obtained in crystalline form by slow evaporation from ethanol. The molecules are linked by axially ligating each other to form infinite chains, which is similar to the only other two structurally characterized rhodium(II) carboxylates, Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄ and Rh₂(O₂CC₃H₇)₄, which also lack exogenous axial ligands. The infinite chains of 1 are cleaved by strong donor solvents such as pyridine to produce the corresponding pyridine adduct (2). Both the complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, MS, IR and NMR spectra.
