新型重整催化剂的研究—Pt／BaKL型沸石中钡的作用

本文采用XRD,NH_3-TPD,IR以及TEM等方法考察了Pt/BaKL沸石中Ba~(2+)的作用。NH_3-TPD结果表明,交换Ba~(2+)后的L型沸石的酸性,由于阳离子的作用仅在弱酸范围内有些改变,但与载铂的沸石的催化活性无明显的对应关系。IR及XRD谱线表明,BaKL沸石中Ba~(2+)在最佳交换度(26.3%)时,随预培烧温度的提高,使Ba~(2+)处于沸石孔道中B、C、D位置,接近于最佳分布,此时IR谱线上1421cm~(-1)处有一新峰。当沸石负载铂后,因铂与Ba~(2+)的相互作用,新峰消失,导致铂粒在沸石上分布更加均匀;铂粒在1.5—3.0nm之间占有最大比例,使得Pt/BaKL沸石呈现芳构化活性及选择性高于Pt/KL沸石,分别为～98%和～95%。     

Hydrogen–hydrogen bonding in biphenyl revisited

The evidence for the stabilizing nature of the H–H bonding in planar biphenyl is succinctly reviewed. The stabilizing nature of the H–H bonding is revealed through a comparison of the atomic energy of every atom in planar biphenyl with the same atom in the twisted equilibrium structure. It is shown that the barrier to rotation via the planar transition state is the net resultant of a stabilisation of the four ortho-hydrogen atoms (by 8 kcal/mol each), a stabilisation of the two para-carbon atoms (by 3 kcal/mol each) and by the dominant destabilisation of the two carbon atoms joining the two rings—the two junction carbon atoms—(by 22 kcal/mol each). The energetic stabilisation of the four ortho-hydrogen atoms is further shown to be in large proportion due to the formation of the hydrogen–hydrogen interatomic surface. Furthermore, neither the “bond order” between the two junction carbon atoms nor the total electron delocalisation between the two rings exhibit a significant change in going from the planar to the twisted equilibrium geometry. These findings are in contrast with the classical view of a balance between “steric non-bonded repulsion” and better electron delocalisation as a function of the twist dihedral angle. Similar conclusions have been recently reached by Pacios and Gómez through a study of the electrostatic potential at the position of the hydrogen nuclei. We dedicate this article to Professor TM Krygowski on the occasion of his 70th birthday wishing him a long and productive life.     

Homogeneous rare earth coordination catalysts for copolymerization of styrene with acrylonitrile

The study on homogeneous rare earth coordination catalysts, LnL₃-Al(i-Bu)₃-CCl₄, for the copolymerization of styrene with acrylonitrile has been successfully carried out for the first time. Some features and kinetic behavior of copolymerization of styrene with acrylonitrile by Nd(P₂₀₄)₃-Al(i-Bu)₃-CCl₄ system are described. The catalyst sites appear to possess both coordinate anionic and free radical characteristics. The catalytic activity of various rare earth elements in Ln(P₂₀₄)₃ and ligands in NdL₃ for the copolymerization have the following order, respectively: Yb > Er > Tb ～ Tm > Ho > Ce > Lu ～ Sm ～ La > Pr > Nd, and Nd(naph)₃ > Nd(P₂₀₄)₃ ～ Nd(P₅₀₇)₃ > Nd(acac)₃·3H₂O. An alternating-rich copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile with a high softening point (195–230°C) was obtained by the LnL₃-Al(i-Bu)₃-CCl₄ systems in toluene at 80°C.     

Electrochemical investigation of hymecromone at a multi-wall carbon nano-tube/cetyl pyridine bromine composite film electrode

A multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWNT)/cetyl pyridine bromine (CPB) composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was developed for the electrochemical determination of hymecromone in phosphonate buffer. Electrochemical behaviour of hymecromone at the composite film electrode was investigated with voltammetry. Compared with an irreversible oxidation of hymecromone at the bare GCE, the oxidation peak current was enhanced greatly at the film electrode. Some parameters such as pH, scan rate, accumulation potential and accumulation time were optimized. Under optimal conditions, an oxidation peak at 0.82 V was employed to determine hymecromone electrochemically. A linearity between the oxidation peak current and the hymecromone concentration was obtained in the range of 3.0 × 10⁻⁷ − 2.0 × 10⁻⁵ mol 1⁻¹ with a detection limit of 8.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol 1⁻¹. The proposed procedure was successfully applied to assay hymecromone in pharmaceutical formulation with satisfactory results. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Synthesis and mechanism research of an ethylene glycol-based sol-gel method for preparing PZT nanopowders

Lead zirconate titanate nanopowders Pb(Zr_0.52Ti_0.48)O₃ (PZT) were prepared by modified sol-gel process in ethylene glycol system with zirconium nitrate as the zirconium source. The research showed that it was critical to add lead acetate after the reaction of zirconium nitrate and tetrabutyl titanate in ethylene glycol system for preparing PZT of exact titanium content. The reaction mechanisms of the sol synthesis, preparation of xerogel and agglutinating process were characterized through using FT-IR, NMR, TG-FTIR, and GC-MS. The experiment proved that ethylene glycol system did not rely on hydrolysis and condensation reactions in the process of the sol formation, but on the formation of chain or network large molecules from complexation of ethylene glycol and all Ti and minor Pd, Zr. In the preparation of xerogel, the complexation reaction was so completed that it formed large molecules network composed of metal and dioxyethyl. Bulk weight loss happened before 350°C in the process of sintering xerogel to prepare PZT nanopowders. Volatile matters and vapor phase decomposition resultants were primarily oxy-compounds including ethylene glycol, aldehyde-ketone compounds, carbon dioxide and nitrate radical conversion matters. After 350°C, primary vapor phase decomposition resultants were carbon dioxide and minor carbonyl compound.

Two novel four-coordinated zinc(II) complexes [Zn(dmatrz)<Subscript>2</Subscript>Cl<Subscript>2</Subscript>] and [Zn(dmatrz)<Subscript>2</Subscript>(SCN)<Subscript>2</Subscript>] exhibiting strong blue fluorescent properties

Two novel complexes, [Zn(dmatrz)₂]Cl₂ (1) and [Zn(dmatrz)₂(SCN)₂] (2), have been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography, absorption and luminescence spectrometries (dmatrz=3,5-dimethy-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole). The coordination environment of the zinc(II) ions in (1) and (2) has a distorted tetrahedral geometry completed via two independent nitrogen atoms of two triazole ligands and two anions, respectively. Both (1) and (2) show strong blue luminescence properties. Furthermore, (1) displays stronger blue photoluminescence than (2) as the result of different anions (Cl^- and SCN^-) coordinated to the zinc(II) ions.     

Investigation on the chain-to-chain and chain-to-open-framework transformations of two one-dimensional aluminophosphate chains

Using ethylenediamine as a template, two one-dimensional (1-D) aluminophosphate compounds [AlP(2)O(8)H][NH(3)CH(2)CH(2)NH(3)] (1) and [AlP(2)O(8)][NH(3)CH(2)CH(2)NH(3)][NH(4)] (2) have been prepared from a gel system: 1.0:x:y:44 Al(i-PrO)(3)-H(3)PO(4)-en-EG (x = 3.0-9.0, y = 1.0-11.0). Compound 1 consists of edge-sharing four-membered ring (MR) chains, denoted as AlPO-ESC, and compound 2 consists of corner-sharing 4-MR chains, denoted as AlPO-CSC. The molar ratio of en:H(3)PO(4) in the starting gel has an important influence on the final product. If en:H(3)PO(4) > or = 1, AlPO-CSC is obtained, while if en:H(3)PO(4) < 1, AlPO-ESC is formed. These two chains can transform to each other upon addition of some extra amount of en or H(3)PO(4) to the reaction mixture in which AlPO-ESC or AlPO-CSC is crystallized. On the basis of XRD and (27)Al and (31)P MAS NMR analyses, a possible chain-to-chain transformation mechanism is proposed. The corner-sharing 4-MR chains of AlPO-CSC, as well as the edge-sharing 4-MR chains of AlPO-ESC can be assembled to 3-D open-framework compound NiAlP(2)O(8).C(2)N(2)H(9) through Ni(2+) cations. It is noted that AlPO-CSC remains in the structure of NiAlP(2)O(8).C(2)N(2)H(9). It is believed that AlPO-ESC might be first transformed to AlPO-CSC followed by the assembly to 3-D open-framework of NiAlP(2)O(8).C(2)N(2)H(9) through Ni(2+) cations.

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Brønsted</Emphasis> Acids in Ionic Liquids: Fundamentals,Organic Reactions,and Comparisons

Summary. A background for studying acids in various solvents is developed, emphasizing the importance of knowing to what extent a solvent conducts electricity and is therefore ionized, the dissociation equilibria of common molecular solvents and the acidic and basic species generated by solvent leveling. Acidity measurements in the atypical solvent water are discussed and the common method of expressing acidity in other systems – by Hammett values – is introduced. Representative examples of reactions involving Br?nsted acids in ionic liquids are presented and attention paid to the questions of speciation and acidity values. It is found that the gas phase proton affinity of a base is often a better guide to the acidity of its conjugate acid in an ionic liquid than is the dissociation constant of the said acid in water.
