Structure‐Triggered High Quantum Yield Luminescence and Switchable Dielectric Properties in Manganese(II) Based Hybrid Compounds

Two new manganese(II) based organic–inorganic hybrid compounds, C₁₁H₂₁Cl₃MnN₂ ( 1 ) and C₁₁H₂₂Cl₄MnN₂ ( 2 ), with prominent photoluminescence and dielectric properties were synthesized by solvent modulation. Compound 1 with novel trigonal bipyramidal geometry exhibits bright red luminescence with a lifetime of 2.47 ms and high quantum yield of 35.8 %. Compound 2 with tetrahedral geometry displays intense long‐lived (1.54 ms) green light emission with higher quantum yield of 92.3 %, accompanied by reversible solid‐state phase transition at 170 K and a distinct switchable dielectric property. The better performance of 2 results from the structure, including a discrete organic cation moiety and inorganic metal anion framework, which gives the cations large freedom of motion.     

Electrocatalytic Generation of Amidyl Radicals for Olefin Hydroamidation: Use of Solvent Effects to Enable Anilide Oxidation

Oxidative generation of synthetically important amidyl radicals from N?H amides is an appealing and yet challenging task. Previous methods require a stoichiometric amount of a strong oxidant and/or a costly noble‐metal catalyst. We report herein the first electrocatalytic method that employs ferrocene (Fc), a cheap organometallic reagent, as the redox catalyst to produce amidyl radicals from N‐aryl amides. Based on this radical‐generating method, an efficient intramolecular olefin hydroamidation reaction has been developed.     

Colloidal GaAs quantum wires: solution-liquid-solid synthesis and quantum-confinement studies

Colloidal GaAs quantum wires with diameters of 5-11 nm and narrow diameter distributions (standard deviation = 12-21% of the mean diameter) are grown by two methods based on the solution-liquid-solid (SLS) mechanism. Resolved excitonic absorption features arising from GaAs quantum wires are detected, allowing extraction of the size-dependent effective band gaps of the wires. The results allow the first systematic comparison of the size dependences of the effective band gaps in corresponding sets of semiconductor quantum wires and quantum wells. The GaAs quantum wire and well band gaps scale according to the prediction of a simple effective-mass-approximation, particle-in-a-box (EMA-PIB) model, which estimates the kinetic confinement energies of electron-hole pairs in quantum nanostructures of different shapes and confinement dimensionalities.     

Ion-pair Reversed-phase×Low-pH Reversed-phase Two-dimensional Liquid Chromatography for In-depth Proteomic Profiling

High-resolution liquid chromatography separation is essential to in-depth proteomic profiling of complex biological samples. Herein, we established an ion-pair reversed-phase×reversed-phase two-dimensional liquid chromatography (IPRP×RP 2DLC) strategy for comprehensive proteomic analysis. Both RPLC separation dimensions were performed at low pH, with trifluoroacetic acid(TFA) and formic acid(FA) as mobile phase addictive, respectively. As the good separation resolution offered by ion-pairing effect of TFA, the fractionation efficiency was greatly improved with 74.0% peptides identified in just one fraction. Comparing with conventional high pH RP fractionation, the overall separation rate of IPRP was about 1.6 times that of high-pH RP, which increased the number of identified peptides by 21%. Further, 2169 proteins and 8540 peptides were confidently identified from crude serum sample by our IPRP×RP 2DLC strategy, exhibiting great potential in clinical proteomics in the future.     

Rhodium-Catalyzed Enantioselective 1,4-Oxyamination of Conjugated gem-Difluorodienes via Coupling with Carboxylic Acids and Dioxazolones

The incorporation of fluorine atoms in organics improves their bioactivity and lipophilicity. Catalytic functionalization of gem-difluorodienes represents one of the most straightforward approaches to access fluorinated alkenes. In contrast to the regular 1,3-dienes that undergo diverse asymmetric di/hydrofunctionalizations, the regio- and enantioselective oxyamination of gem-difluorodienes remains untouched. Herein, we report asymmetric 1,4-oxyamination of gem-difluorodiene by chiral rhodium-catalyzed three-component coupling with readily available carboxylic acid and dioxazolone, affording gem-difluorinated 1,4-amino alcohol derivatives. Our asymmetric protocol exhibits high 1,4-regio- and enantioselectivity with utility in the late-stage modification of pharmaceuticals and natural products. Stoichiometric experiments provide evidences for the π-allylrhodium pathway. Related oxyamination was also realized when trifluoroethanol was used as an oxygen nucleophile.     

Detection of arsenic and lead in chromite by alkali fusion-acid dissolvingatomic fluorescence spectrometryEI北大核心CSCD

A hydride generation-atomic fluorescence spectrometry （AFS） method was developed for the detection of arsenic （As） and lead （Pb） in chromite by alkali fusing and acid dissolving. The sample was fused by Na2O2 and acidification dissolved by HCl. As was quantified by AFS with 10% （V/V） HCl as the carrier flow agent, and KBH4（15 g/L） as reducing agent. Pb was quantified by AFS with 1% （V/V） HCl as the carrier flow agent, and KBH4（20 g/L）-KOH（10 g/L）-K3［Fe（CN）6］ （15 g/L） as reducing agent. Under the optimum conditions, the correlation coefficient （R2） was 1.0000 in the range of 0.5-10 μg/L, the limit of detection （LOD） was 0.05 μg/g with the relative standard deviations （RSDs） of 1.4%-6.0% and the recoveries of 96.2%-116.7% for As. And the R2 was 0.9998 in the range of 1.25-25 μg/L, the LOD was 0.2 μg/g with the RSDs of 1.5%-3.7% and the recoveries of 95.9%-112.2% for Pb. In addition, the method was validated by certified reference sample analysis and multi-laboratory test, which meets the requirements for the standardized quantitative analysis of trace As and Pb in chromite. © 2023, Youke Publishing Co.,Ltd.
