Adsorption behaviour of SF6 decomposed species onto Pd4-decorated single-walled CNT: a DFT study

Metal nanocluster decorated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) with improved adsorption behaviour towards gaseous molecules compared with intrinsic ones, have been widely accepted as a workable media for gas interaction due to their strong catalysis. In this work, Pd₄ cluster is determined as a catalytic centre to theoretically study the adsorption property of Pd₄-decorated SWCNT upon SF₆ decomposed species. Results indicate that Pd₄-SWCNT possessing good responses and sensitivities towards three composed species of SF₆ could realise selective detection for them according to the different conductivity changes resulting from the varying adsorption ability. The response of Pd₄-SWCNT upon three molecules in order is SOF₂ > H₂S > SO₂, and the conductivity of the proposed material is about to increase in SOF₂ and H₂S systems, while declining in SO₂ system. Such conclusions would be helpful for experimentalists to explore novel SWCNT-based sensors in evaluating the operating state of SF₆ insulation devices.     

Simultaneous Electrochemiluminescence Detection of Anisodamine,Atropine, and Scopolamine in Flos daturae by Capillary Electrophoresis Using β‐Cyclodextrin as Additive

This work developed a simple and sensitive method for simultaneous determination of three effective ingredients, atropine, scopolamine and anisodamine, in Flos daturae based on capillary electrophoresis coupled with electrochemiluminescence detection. β‐Cyclodextrin was used as an additive to the running buffer for obtaining the absolute separation. The proposed method displayed the linear ranges from 0.2 to 100, 0.2 to 100 and 20 to 200 μM for anisodamine, atropine and scopolamine with correlation coefficients more than 0.99, respectively. This method showed the relative standard deviations less than 4% and 6% for detection of migration time and peak height, respectively, and was suitable for the determination of these tropane alkaloids in plants and valuable in clinical and biochemical laboratories for quality control.

Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry of AZT H-phosphonates conjugated with steroids

AZT H-phosphonates conjugated with steroids were synthesized and determined by positive and negative ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) in conjunction with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The fragmentation pathways were investigated in detail. There are very different characteristic fragment ions in the positive and negative ion MS/MS spectra. The azide group of compounds 6a and 6b underwent either elimination of HN(3) or rearrangement to an amine in both positive and negative ion mass spectrometry.

Comparative evaluation of the possibilities of INAA, ED-XRF, ICP-AES and AAS in the analysis of plants

The usefulness of INAA, radionuclide ED-XRF, ICP-AES and AAS are comparatively evaluated for the determination of nutrients, essential and trace elements in various plant matrices. The comparison is performed by analysis of the following reference materials: NIST-SRM-1573, NIST-SRM-1575, NIES-1, NIES-3, NIES-6, IAEA-V-10 and Bowen's kale. The detection limits, accuracy and precision of the methods are discussed and a combination of INAA and GFAAS is recommended for analysis of plants for monitoring purposes.     

The Structure of 2‐[(1S)‐(+)‐10‐camphorsulfonamino]‐6‐aminopyridine in the Solid State and in Solution; Unprecedented Cocrystallization of Four Stereoisomers

The solid and solution structures of a new optically active aminopyridine compound, 2‐[(1S)‐(+)‐10‐camphorsulfonamino]‐6‐aminopyridine [(S)‐csaap], 1 , are reported. Crystal data: space group P2₁, a = 8.9729 (5), b = 10.9447 (6), c = 36.693 (2) Å, β = 96.435 (1)°, V = 3580.8 (3) ų, Z = 8, R₁ = 0.0673 and wR₂ = 0.1600 with I > 2σ(I). This chiral compound shows an unprecedented cocrystallization of four stereoisomers, which are characterized by X‐ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy.     

Annealing effects on the structure, photoluminescence, and magnetic properties of GaN/Mn3O4 core-shell nanowires

Nanowires consisting of GaN/Mn₃O₄ were prepared using a two-step approach that involved dipping the as-synthesized GaN nanowires into an aqueous manganese acetate solution. To examine the effects of annealing, GaN/Mn₃O₄ core-shell nanowires were heated thermally to 700 °C in N₂ ambient. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the continuous Mn₃O₄ shell layer had agglomerated to expose a bare GaN core surface after thermal annealing. The magnetic measurements showed that the ferromagnetic behavior of the GaN nanowires had been suppressed by coating with the Mn₃O₄ shell, without significant change by the subsequent thermal annealing. The GaN/Mn₃O₄ core-shell nanowires exhibited blue, green, and red photoluminescence (PL) emission. The red emission was enhanced by thermal annealing. This paper discusses the associated mechanism for the variations in PL and magnetic properties of GaN/Mn₃O₄ core-shell nanowires.
