Synthesis of triphenylene derivatives by Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling/intramolecular CH activation between arylboronic acids and dibromobiphenyls

An efficient and regioselective synthesis of functionalized triphenylenes via palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and subsequent intramolecular CH activation between arylboronic acids and dibromobiphenyls was developed. This methodology showed excellent atomic economy and regiospecificity as well as synthetic feasibility of unsymmetrical triphenylenes.     

Preparation ,Structural Characterization and Luminescent Property of Binucleasr Silver（Ⅰ）Complex Formed by Benzotriazole and 1—Hydroxymethyl Benzotriazole

Dinuclear silver (I) six‐membered ring complex [Ag₂ (bta)₂ ‐(hmbta)₂] (ClO₄)₂ (3) has been synthesized by the reaction of benzotriazole (bta) (1) and 1‐hydroxymethyl benzotriazole (hmbta) (2) with Ag (CH₃CN)₄ClO₄. The structures of compound 2 and Complex 3 have been studied by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The change of luminescent intensity of 1, 2 and 3 was reported. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P2 (1)/c, a = 0.7655 (10) nm, b = 1.0126 (14) nm, c =0.9502 (13) nm, β = 95.07 (2)°, V = 0.7337 (17) nm³ and Z = 4. Complex 3 crystallizes in the triclinic system with space group P1, a = 0.73611 (18) nm, b = 0.9152 (2) nm, c = 1.2277 (3) nm, β = 87.170 (5)°, V = 0.8221 (3) nm³ and Z = 1. The main structural feature of complex 3 is a symmetric dinuclear six‐membered ring formed by two silver (I) atoms and four N‐atoms from two benzotriazoles. The second structural feature of complex 3 is the τ‐τ stacking interaction between two adjacent molecular planes, which forms the two‐dimentional layer structure. Besides, compared with 2, the luminescent intensity of complex 3 shows a remarkable enhancement.     

AFM study of hippocampal cells cultured on silicon wafers with nano-scale surface topograph

The rat hippocampal cells were selected as model to study the interaction between the neural cells and silicon substrates using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The hippocampal cells show tight adherence on silicon wafers with nano-scale surface topograph. The lateral friction force investigated by AFM shows significant increase on the boundary around the cellular body. It is considered to relate to the cytoskeleton and cellular secretions. After ultrasonic wash in ethanol and acetone step by step, the surface of silicon wafers was observed by AFM sequentially. We have found that the culture leftovers form tight porous networks and a monolayer on the silicon wafers. It is concluded that the leftovers overspreading on the silicon substrates are the base of cell adherence on such smooth inert surfaces.     

On the copolymerization of acrylates in the modified microemulsion process

Copolymerization of methyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, butyl methacrylate, and butyl acrylate in turn was performed in the modified microemulsion polymerization process, i.e., continuous addition of monomer to a preemulsified system. It was found that the particle size of the copolymer microlatex did not change distinctly with the monomer composition. The estimation of emulsifier coverage on the microlatex particles indicated that the process switched from a traditional microemulsion to a normal seeded emulsion polymerization very soon after monomer dropping began. Therefore, a longer dropping time is needed to produce a microlatex with narrow dispersed particle size. Besides, in the modified microemulsion polymerization less emulsifier is needed to produce a stable microlatex. This behavior is related to the mechanism of normal seeded emulsion polymerization during monomer dropping.

Analytical application of the co-fluorescence effect in detection of europium, terbium, samarium and dysprosium with time-resolved fluorimetry

Application of the co-fluorescence effect has been examined for the simultaneous detection of the lanthanide ions Eu(3+), Tb(3+), Sm(3+) and Dy(3+). In the presence of Y(3+) and 2,2'-bipyridine (BP), the fluorescence intensities of the pivaloyltrifluoroacetone chelates of these lanthanides were greatly enhanced by an inter-chelate energy transfer process. Under optimized conditions, the following detection limits were obtained; 0.019 pM for Eu(3+), 0.27 pM for Tb(3+), 3.8 pM for Sm(3+) and 20 pM for Dy(3+), when a sensitive time-resolved fluorometer was used for the measurement. A co-fluorescence based fluorescence enhancement solution was also tested in a dual-label time-resolved immunofluorometric assay of luteinizing and follicle stimulating hormones (LH and FSH) based on the use of Eu(3+) and Tb(3+) as the label ions. The present fluorometric detection system is particularly well suited for multilabel time-resolved fluorometric immunoassays utilizing two, three or four ion labels simultaneously.     

pH sensitivity of Si--C linked organic monolayers on crystalline silicon surfaces.

The electrochemical behavior of Si--C linked organic monolayers is studied in electrolyte-insulator-Si devices, under conditions normally encountered in potentiometric biosensors, to gain fundamental knowledge on the behavior of such Si electrodes under practical conditions. This is done via titration experiments, Mott-Schottky data analysis, and data fitting using a site-binding model. The results are compared with those of native SiO(2) layers and native SiO(2) layers modified with hexamethyldisilazane. All samples display pH sensitivity. The number of Si--OH groups on the alkylated samples is calculated to be less than 0.7 % of that of a pure SiO(2) insulator, which still causes a pH sensitivity of approximately 25 mV per pH unit in the pH range: 4-7. The alkylated samples hardly suffer from response changes during up- and down-going titrations, which indicates that very little oxide is additionally formed during the measurements. The pK(a) values of all samples with monolayers (4.0-4.4) are lower than that of native SiO(2) (6.0). The long-term drift (of approximately 1 mV h(-1)) is moderate. The results indicate that biosensors composed of alkylated Si substrates are feasible if a cross-sensitivity towards pH in the sensor signal is taken into account.

对聚苯醚(PPO)进行了苯环溴代、甲基溴代以及胺交联,发现苯环溴代可提高O_2、N_2透过率(P),而选择性(α)基本不变。甲基溴代则相反,P降低、α有明显提高。调节两者比例可得到P、α兼优的O_2、N_2分离膜。甲基溴代后进一步胺交联可得到α更高、耐溶剂的膜材料。
