Facile cyclic ammonium salt with the smallest size for high performance electric double layer capacitors

A novel cyclic ammonium salt, N,N-dimethylpyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate (P₁₁-BF₄), was successfully synthesized for the first time. The smallest cyclic structure of P₁₁-BF₄ induced high solubility and conductivity in PC, which can easier enter the micropores of activated carbon and occupy more surface area during charge/discharge process.

Modified modeling of the effect of pH and viscosity on the mass transfer in hydrophobic hollow fiber membrane contactors

This paper studied the effect of pH and the viscosity of feed solution on the mass transfer in two different specifications of hydrophobic hollow fiber membrane contactors. Experimental results showed that the pH of the feed had a significant effect on the rate of mass transfer, the flux and the removal efficiency of easily ionized volatile compounds (VCs), such as ammonia. In unbuffered feed solutions, both the resistance of membrane and the resistance of feed side were affected by the pH of feed and both of them had contributions to the overall mass transfer. A model, , was proposed to predict the effect of pH and gave good agreement with the experimental data for the two contactors. The relationship between viscosities and the mass transfer coefficient could be described by . Based on our experiments, the change of the viscosities in the concentration range of ammonia from 50 to 10,000 mg l⁻¹ caused about 3–4% variation of the mass transfer coefficients. Moreover, it may be more suitable to use the equilibrium concentrations of volatile species instead of the total concentrations of VCs to estimate mass transfer coefficients, removal efficiency and flux. Experimental results also revealed that the choice of the pH of feed might be one of the most crucial factors for removing easily ionized VCs, such as ammonia, from water and wastewater.     

Total synthesis of a conformationally constrained didemnin B analog

The total synthesis of a didemnin B analogue containing a conformationally constrained replacement for the isostatine moiety is reported. Synthetic highlights include an improved preparation of 2-hydroxy-3-cyclohexenecarboxylic acid and a new strategy for accessing the macrocycle.     

Facile synthesis of exfoliated and highly conductive poly(arylene disulfide)/graphite nanocomposites

Exfoliated graphite has been synthesized by first synthesizing H₂SO₄ intercalated compound in a H₂O₂‐H₂SO₄ mixture, followed by exfoliation under microwave irradiation. Poly(arylene disulfide)/graphite nanocomposites were then fabricated by absorbing cyclic(arylene disulfide) oligomers into the pores of exfoliated graphite. Subsequently, the nanocomposite precursor was subjected to heat treatment to carry out the in situ ring‐opening polymerization of the oligomers via free radical mechanism. The as‐prepared nanocomposite exhibited a exfoliated nanostructure as evidenced by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation. The nanocomposite with a very small amount of graphite, 5 wt%, possesses a highly electrical conductivity of 4 S/cm, therefore, many applications can be found as conductive materials.

C9‐Iridoids from Scrophularia buergeriana

Four new iridoids, buergerinins B–E ( 1 – 4 ), along with three known iridoids, were isolated from the roots of Scrophularia buergeriana. Their structures were identified on the basis of spectroscopic analysis.     

Photopolymerization induced by a benzophenone derivative photoinitiator

A benzophenone derivative photoinitiator, HBP-TDI-HQ-TDI-HBP （HTCTH）, was synthesized based on 4-hydroxy benzophenone （HBP）, toluene-2,4-diisocyanate （TDI） and hydroquinone （HQ）. HTCTH was a more effective photoinitiator which had longer wavelength absorption in the UV-vis absorption spectra than the low molecular counterpart benzophenone （BP）. It showed that both rate of polymerization （Rp） and final conversion （P） increased with increase of amine and HTCTH concentration in photopolymerization.     

3-(Triethoxysilyl)propionitrile sol-gel coating

3-(Triethoxysilyl)propionitrile (TESPN) sol-gel has been prepared under different conditions. It was employed for coating the surfaces of quartz and aluminum. Infrared (IR) and Raman spectra of TESPN and TESPN sol-gels have been recorded in the study of the sol-gel process. Transmission and reflection absorption IR (RAIR) spectra of TESPN sol-gel coated quartz and aluminum have also been collected for better understanding the film formation on the substrate surfaces. Spectra collected at different temperatures indicated that the silane film on quartz decomposes at 700 degrees C. Results from thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) supported this result. Based on the group frequencies and the spectral behavior in different states, some vibrational modes were assigned to the observed bands. The anticorrosion behavior of the sol-gel coated aluminum in comparison with the uncoated metal was evaluated by measuring the potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS).
