Effects of the Specific Area and the Thermal Stability of a Polymer on the Catalytic Activities of Polymer Immobilized Co-Pd Catalysts by SAMI

Co-Pd bimetallic catalysts immobilized with four kinds of resins with different specific areas were prepared by means of the solvated metal atom impregnation (SMAI) method. The results of the XRD and the magnetic measurement showed that as the specific area of the resin increased, the particle sizes of Co and Pd on the catalysts with the same metal content decreased, so the catalytic activity of the catalysts for the hydrogenation of diacetone alcohol as well as the reduction of oxygen on the fuel cell electrode increased. Below 140 , the conversion of diacetone alcohol increased as the reaction temperature increased, and above 140 , the conversion decreased because of the rupture of the resin.     

Synthesis and Structure of an Interlock Network Frame of Cobalt(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer {[Co(azpy)_2(NCS)_2]·1/4EtOH·1/2H_2O}_n (azpy=4,4′-Azobispyridine)

A compound {[Co(azpy)_2(NCS)_2]·1/4EtOH·1/2H_2O}_n(1), where azpy=4,4'-azobispyridine, was synthesized and characterized by means of IR, TGA-DTA, magnetic susceptibility and X-ray single crystal diffraction. It consists of two independent sets of fully interlocked two-dimensional networks with the dihedral angle 61.7°, organized in parallel stacks of the sheets which are made of edge-shared [Co(Ⅱ)]_4 squares separated by 0. 9062nm, and defined size rhombic channels. The thermal gravimetric analysis indicates that the framework is stable up to 198℃. The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements indicated that there is a weak antiferromagnetic interaction between the cobalt(Ⅰ) ions in the complex (1).

A New Organo-templated Layered Zincophosphate Synthesized from a Solvothermal System Containing Racemic1,2-Diaminopropane

IntroductionSince Wilson and co- workers successfullysynthesized three- dimensional microporousaluminophosphates (Al PO4 - n ) [1] in the 1 980 s,much attention has been focused on the explorationof1 - D chain,2 - D layer and3 - D open- frameworkmetal phosphates from aqueous or non- aqueoussystems.The number of metals incorporated intothe frameworks of these materials is continuouslyincreasing and the metals include Be[2 ] ,Ga[3] ,In[4 ] ,Sn[5] ,Sb[6 ] ,and the transition metals Zn[7] ,Ni…     

Antioxidative Effect of Schiff Bases with o-Hydroxybenzylidene Groupon Free Radical Induced Hemolysis of Human Red Blood Cell

IntroductionThe recent development of free radical biologyand medicine has provided a great deal of clinicaland experimental evidence indicating that the freeradical induced peroxidation of membrane lipids isassociated with a variety of chronic healthproblems,such as cancer,atherosclerosis andageing[1,2 ] . Both natural and synthetic antioxidantshave been used to trap peroxyl radicals and/orinitiating radicals to protect the membrane lipidsagainst free radical chain reactions,and hence mayhave…     

Synthesis and cytotoxic activity of novel curcumin analogues

Five novel curcumin analogues bearing different substituents at 4-position of phenyl group were synthesized. Their structures were confirmed by NMR and HRMS spectrum. Their cytotoxic activities against six tumor cell lines were tested by the standard MTT assay in vitro. The results indicated that four analogues （1A-1C, 1E） with solubilizing moieties showed selective potent cytotoxicity against HepG2, HeLa and CT26 cell lines, and analogue 1A and 1C exhibited more potent cytotoxicity than curcumin against CT26 cell line. It was suggested that introduction of appropriate substituents to 4-position of phenyl group might be a potential option for structural modification of curcumin.

Basic Functionalization of Hexagonal Mesoporous Silica

Recently, a novel method of modification, i.e., functionalizing the internal surface of mesoporous materials has been reported1-5, owing to the large pore size, the silanol groups, which are in a big population in mesoporous materials, can chemically couple with the active groups of some bulky organic functional molecules. Based on this approach, one can obtain novel solid basic catalysts. Here we functionalized the hexagonal and hexagonal-like mesoporous silica materials SBA-3 and HMS wi…
