One‐Step Hydrothermal Synthesis of Nitrogen‐Doped Carbon Nanotubes as an Efficient Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reactions

A high amount of heteroatom doping in carbon, although favorable for enhanced density of catalytically active sites, may lead to substantially decreased electroconductivity, which is necessary for the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction. Herein, a relatively low amount of nitrogen was successfully doped into carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by a hydrothermal approach in one step, and the synthesized nitrogen‐doped CNT (CNT‐N) materials retained most of the original, excellent characteristics, such as the graphitic structure, tubular morphology, and high surface area, of CNTs. The resultant CNT‐N materials, although containing a relatively low amount of nitrogen doping, exhibited high electrocatalytic ORR activity, comparable to that of 20 wt % Pt/C; long durability; and, more importantly, largely inhibited methanol crossover effect.     

Palmarumycins from the Endophytic Fungus Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae XSZ‐3

One new and three known spiro‐dioxynaphthalene compounds, related to palmarumycins, were isolated from the extracts of fungus Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae XSZ‐3. Their structures were established by spectroscopic methods (1D‐ and 2D‐NMR, HR‐ESI‐MS, etc.). The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by comparison of quantum‐chemical TDDFT (time‐dependent density‐functional theory) calculated and experimental ECD (electronic circular dichroism) spectra. The cytotoxic activities of 1 – 4 against HL‐60 cell line were evaluated by trypan blue‐staining assay.     

Syntheses,Structures, and Properties of the 3D Lanthanide Organic Frameworks with N‐Heterocyclic Polycarboxylic Acids

Four 3D lanthanide organic frameworks from potassium pyrazine‐2, 3, 5, 6‐tetracarboxylate (K₄pztc) or potassium pyridine‐2, 3, 5, 6‐tetracarboxylate (K₄pdtc), namely, {[KEu(pztc)(H₂O)₂] · H₂O}_n ( 1 ), {[KTb(pztc)(H₂O)₂] · 1.25H₂O}_n ( 2 ), {[KLn(pdtc)(H₂O)] · H₂O}_n [Ln = Gd ( 3 ), Ho ( 4 )], were synthesized by reaction of the corresponding lanthanide oxides with K₄pztc or K₄pdtc in presence of HCl under hydrothermal conditions, and characterized by elemental analysis, TGA, IR and fluorescence spectroscopy as well as X‐ray diffraction. In complexes 1 and 2 , the dodecadentate chelator pztc^4– links four Ln^III ions and four K^I ions. The coordination mode of the pztc^4– ligand is reported for the first time herein. Complexes 3 and 4 are isostructural with earlier reported Nd, Dy, Er complexes. Moreover, the Eu^III and Tb^III complexes exhibit the characteristic luminescence.

五彩湾煤镜质组与惰质组在热解中的相互作用

以五彩湾煤镜质组、惰质组为研究对象,建立两种不同的体系,镜质组与惰质组无相互作用体系(A)和相互作用体系(B)。利用热重技术(TG)和傅里叶变换红外技术(FT-IR),将两体系的热解固体产物进行红外分析。结果表明,在300~450℃,体系B的脂肪氢含量高于体系A,表明镜质组与惰质组之间发生了烷基自由基转移反应,芳氢的含量也是体系B多于体系A,这说明镜质组与惰质组之间同时发生了芳构化作用,随温度升高,镜质组生成少量氢自由基与惰质组发生侧链取代反应;在500~700℃,体系B的脂肪氢含量和芳氢含量均低于体系A,表明此时镜质组与惰质组之间发生缩聚反应及缩合反应;750~800℃时,脂肪氢和芳香氢含量均为体系B大于体系A,说明体系B中,镜质组产生较多的氢自由基与惰质组大分子芳香结构发生氢化反应,同时与惰质组发生侧链取代反应;850~900℃时,镜质组与惰质组之间进一步发生多环芳香缩合反应。     

One‐pot Synthesis of CdS Nanocrystals Hybridized with Single‐Layer Transition‐Metal Dichalcogenide Nanosheets for Efficient Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

Exploration of low‐cost and earth‐abundant photocatalysts for highly efficient solar photocatalytic water splitting is of great importance. Although transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) showed outstanding performance as co‐catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), designing TMD‐hybridized photocatalysts with abundant active sites for the HER still remains challenge. Here, a facile one‐pot wet‐chemical method is developed to prepare MS₂–CdS (M=W or Mo) nanohybrids. Surprisedly, in the obtained nanohybrids, single‐layer MS₂ nanosheets with lateral size of 4–10 nm selectively grow on the Cd‐rich (0001) surface of wurtzite CdS nanocrystals. These MS₂–CdS nanohybrids possess a large number of edge sites in the MS₂ layers, which are active sites for the HER. The photocatalytic performances of WS₂–CdS and MoS₂–CdS nanohybrids towards the HER under visible light irradiation (>420 nm) are about 16 and 12 times that of pure CdS, respectively. Importantly, the MS₂–CdS nanohybrids showed enhanced stability after a long‐time test (16 h), and 70 % of catalytic activity still remained.     

Hybrid Fibers Made of Molybdenum Disulfide,Reduced Graphene Oxide,and Multi‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Solid‐State,Flexible, Asymmetric Supercapacitors

One of challenges existing in fiber‐based supercapacitors is how to achieve high energy density without compromising their rate stability. Owing to their unique physical, electronic, and electrochemical properties, two‐dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, e.g., molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) and graphene, have attracted increasing research interest and been utilized as electrode materials in energy‐related applications. Herein, by incorporating MoS₂ and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets into a well‐aligned multi‐walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) sheet followed by twisting, MoS₂‐rGO/MWCNT and rGO/MWCNT fibers are fabricated, which can be used as the anode and cathode, respectively, for solid‐state, flexible, asymmetric supercapacitors. This fiber‐based asymmetric supercapacitor can operate in a wide potential window of 1.4 V with high Coulombic efficiency, good rate and cycling stability, and improved energy density.
