Convenient synthesis of optically active α‐hydroxyphosphinic acids

The reaction of O‐menthyl phenylphosphonite 1 with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Me₃SiCl provided the O‐menthyl α‐hydroxyphosphinates 2 . Acidic hydrolysis of 2 gave the corresponding α‐hydroxyphosphinic acids 3 . The (+)‐enantiomer of 3a and 3b , adduct of benzaldehyde and 4‐methylbenzaldehyde respectively, were obtained via multiple recrystallization. The absolute configuration of (+)‐ 3a was determined as S by X‐ray crystallography. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

低磁场S波段相对论返波振荡器的工作特性

为了实现高功率微波发生器的小型化,开展了S波段低磁场相对论返波振荡器工作特性的研究工作。由于S波段返波振荡器频率低,对应的电子回旋共振磁场强度也很低,因此低磁场条件下面临着电子束传输效率低和束波互作用效率低两大问题。为解决上述问题,采取下列措施：通过加大电子束与器件内壁的距离,提高电子束传输效率;采用较深的慢波结构作为提取腔,实现高束波互作用阻抗;提取腔前采用浅深度慢波结构,使提取腔区域的电子速度与微波相速同步。粒子模拟证明,以上措施有效,在引导磁场强度仅为0.17 T、电子束电压435 kV、电流6.5 kA的条件下,该返波管获得功率为670 MW、效率约为25%的输出微波。相对于常规S波段相对论返波振荡器的磁场系统(B=0.8 T),适用于该返波管的0.17 T低强度磁场系统螺线管外半径下降了20%,能耗下降了约93.8%。

Confined Ni-In intermetallic alloy nanocatalyst with excellent coking resistance for methane dry reforming

Carbon dioxide and methane are two main greenhouse gases which are contributed to serious global warming.Fortunately,dry reforming of methane(DRM),a very important reaction developed decades ago,can convert these two major greenhouse gases into value-added syngas or hydrogen.The main problem retarding its industrialization is the seriously coking formation upon the nickel-based catalysts.Herein,a series of confined indium-nickel(In-Ni)intermetallic alloy nanocatalysts(In_xNi@SiO₂)have been prepared and displayed superior coking resistance for DRM reaction.The sample containing 0.5 wt.%of In loading(In_0.5Ni@SiO₂)shows the best balance of carbon deposition resistance and DRM reactivity even after 430 h long term stability test.The boosted carbon resistance can be ascribed to the confinement of core–shell structure and to the transfer of electrons from Indium to Nickel in In-Ni intermetallic alloys due to the smaller electronegativity of In.Both the silica shell and the increase of electron cloud density on metallic Ni can weaken the ability of Ni to activate C–H bond and decrease the deep cracking process of methane.The reaction over the confined InNi intermetallic alloy nanocatalyst was conformed to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood(L-H)mechanism revealed by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy(in-situ DRIFTS).This work provides a guidance to design high performance coking resistance catalysts for methane dry reforming to efficiently utilize these two main greenhouse gases.     

Design and Synthesis of Two Aromatic Amines with Dendritic Structure

The design and synthesis of two aromatic amines with dendritic structures, i.e. 3,4,5‐tribenzyloxyaniline (3,4,5‐G₁‐NH₂) and 2,5‐dibenzyloxyaniline (2,5‐G₁‐NH₂), were conducted. A coupling reaction of three or two equivalents of benzyl bromide to one equivalent of methyl hydroxybenzoate generated methyl 3,4,5‐tribenzyloxybenzoate (3,4,5‐G₁‐COOCH₃), methyl 2,5‐dibenzyloxybenzoate (2,5‐G₁‐COOCH₃) and 2,6‐dibenzyloxybenzoate (2,6‐G₁‐COOCH₃) in high yields. All G₁‐COOCH₃ derivatives were studied by X‐ray analysis. The results show that these dendrons have sufficient volume to be used as the fine ligands for certain catalysts. The amide intermediates (benzamide, G₁‐CONH₂) were obtained by reaction between ammonia and G₁‐COOCH₃. Interestingly, 2,6‐dibenzyloxybenzamide (2,6‐G₁‐CONH₂) can not be prepared in the same condition, which may be due to the overlarge steric block. Sodium hypochlorite was an effective oxidant to generate methyl carbamates G₁‐ NHCO₂CH₃.

基于多质点模型的准球形丝阵参数优化研究

基于多质点薄壳模型对准球形丝阵负载参数进行优化,使得终态等离子体具有预期的内爆特性。通过对丝阵初始位形优化,可以获得期望的终态等离子体壳纵横比,并且终态纵横比对负载初始质量变化不敏感。对于固定电流波形(峰值1.2 MA、上升时间80ns),优化计算了初始丝长度15.4mm的丝阵线质量。结果表明,当丝阵初始线质量约为150μg/cm时,赤道半径为2mm、纵横比为1的终态等离子体壳具有最大动能1.5kJ。同时,还针对不同幅度及上升时间的电流进行优化计算,计算结果表明终态等离子体壳的优化的最高动能与电流峰值平方成正比,与最高动能相应的线质量与电流上升时间平方成正比。

均压环在高功率微波辐射天线窗中的应用

为提高高功率微波（HPM）辐射天线的功率容量,设计了带均压环的HPM微波辐射天线窗。均压环嵌入介质窗表面后介质窗表面电场分布发生改变,电子运动轨迹也随之发生改变,改变电子运动轨迹能有效抑制二次电子倍增造成的介质窗击穿。当均压环与辐射场电场垂直时,CST模拟表明,均压环的加入基本不影响天线的辐射性能。将其应用于返波管振荡器（BWO）实验中（输出微波为TM01模）,结果表明：在束压3 MV、束流10 kA、效率30%时,普通天线窗输出脉宽为45 ns,而加入均压环的天线窗输出脉宽100 ns。
