Visible-light-induced,autopromoted nickel-catalyzed three-component arylsulfonation of 1,3-enynes and mechanistic insights

A light-induced, nickel-catalyzed three-component arylsulfonation of 1,3-enynes in the absence of photocatalyst is reported.This methodology exhibited mild conditions, broad scope and high efficiency, and its synthetic utility has been demonstrated by a concise total synthesis of sulfone-containing drug molecule. Detailed mechanistic studies indicated that this light induced nickel catalysis is autopromoted by in situ produced allene, which plays a key role as co-ligand in the photoactive excite...     

Luminescent Thin Films Enabled by CsPbX3 (X=Cl,Br, I) Precursor Solution

Inorganic cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are candidates for lighting and display materials due to their outstanding optoelectronic properties. However, the dissolution issue of perovskite nanocrystals in polar solvents remains a challenge for practical applications. Herein, we present a newly designed one-step spin-coating strategy to prepare a novel multicolor-tunable CsPbX₃ (X=Cl, Br, I) nanocrystal film, where the CsPbX₃ precursor solution was formed by dissolving PbO, Cs₂CO₃, and CH₃NH₃X into the ionic liquid n-butylammonium butyrate. The as-designed CsPbX₃ nanocrystal films show high color purity with a narrow emission width. Also, the blue CsPb(Cl/Br)₃ film demonstrates an absolute photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) of 15.6 %, which is higher than 11.7 % of green CsPbBr₃ and 8.3 % of red CsPb(Br/I)₃ film. This study develops an effective approach to preparing CsPbX₃ nanocrystal thin films, opening a new avenue to design perovskite nanocrystals-based devices for lighting and display applications.

纸吸管中非挥发性迁移物的非靶向筛查及风险评估

根据欧盟法规推荐的两种食物模拟物对纸吸管样品进行模拟迁移试验,并基于超高效液相色谱-四极杆飞行时间质谱(UPLC-Q-TOF MS)对样品中的迁移物进行非靶向筛查,得到包括润滑剂、施胶剂、抗氧剂降解产物、消泡剂在内的31种有意添加物和非有意添加物。利用该课题组前期建立的风险矩阵,即风险=危害(毒性水平+Cramer分级+4×致突变性)×暴露(4×水溶性+4×渗透性),对纸吸管中31种迁移物进行风险分级。结果表明,未发现Ⅰ级高风险物质,Ⅱ级风险物质中得分较高的来自润滑剂(十六酸酰胺等)、施胶剂(海松酸等)和消泡剂(聚乙二醇等)中的成分,对Ⅱ级风险物质进行半定量分析,通过对比暴露量和TTC阈值,发现酰胺类润滑剂(尤其是芥酸酰胺)存在健康风险,应在纸吸管生产加工过程中引起关注。     

Revealing the Effect of Surface Composition on Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes Supported Pt-Fe Alloy Electrocatalysts for Methanol Oxidation Performance

The designs of efficient and inexpensive Pt-based catalysts for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) are essential to boost the commercialization of direct methanol fuel cells. Here, the highly catalytic performance PtFe alloys supported on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decorating nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) have been successfully prepared via co-engineering of the surface composition and electronic structure. The Pt₁Fe₃@NC/MWCNTs catalyst with moderate Fe³⁺ feeding content (0.86 mA/mg_Pt) exhibits 2.26-fold enhancement in MOR mass activity compared to pristine Pt/C catalyst (0.38 mA/mg_Pt). Furthermore, the CO oxidation initial potential of Pt₁Fe₃@NC/MWCNTs catalyst is lower relative to Pt/C catalyst (0.71 V and 0.80 V). Benefited from the optimal surface compositions, the anti-corrosion ability of MWCNT, strong electron interaction between PtFe alloys and MWCNTs and the N-doped carbon (NC) layer, the Pt₁Fe₃@NC/MWCNTs catalyst presents an improved MOR performance and anti-CO poisoning ability. This study would open up new perspective for designing efficient electrocatalysts for the DMFCs field.     

Electrochemiluminescence Enhanced by the Synergetic Effect of Porphyrin and Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes for Uric Acid Detection

The design and exploration of efficient, stable and environmentally compatible organic emitters for an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor is a promising topic. Herein, a novel environmentally-friendly luminophore, ZnBCBTP@MWCNTs, were fabricated via self-assembly of porphyrin molecules (ZnBCBTP) onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The resulting luminophore ZnBCBTP@MWCNTs displayed not only the highly ECL property and but also the good accelerated electron mobility. Then, a label-free ECL biosensor based ZnBCBTP@MWCNTs was constructed for the ultrasensitive detection of uric acid. Excitingly, this proposed ECL biosensor performed a good linear relationship in the range of 0–300 μM with a low detection limit of 1.4 μM, thus offering another reliable and feasible sensing platform for clinical bioanalysis with good selectivity, stability, and repeatability.     

LC-MS/MS methods for determination of unstable pivmecillinam and mecillinam in acidified human plasma: Application to a pharmacokinetic study

Pivmecillinam, the ester of biologically active antibiotic mecillinam, is an effective oral preparation to treat urinary tract infections. To study pharmacokinetics in humans, LC-MS/MS methods were developed to quantify pivmecillinam and mecillinam in human plasma, respectively. Considering cephalexin as internal standard, analytes were separated on UltimateXB-C18 columns after protein precipitation by acetonitrile. The mobile phase was composed of water containing 0.1% formic acid and methanol. The multiple reactions monitoring transitions of m/z 440.2→167.1, 326.1→167.1, and 348.1→158.1 were selected to inspect pivmecillinam, mecillinam, and the internal standard in positive ion mode. No apparent matrix effect was perceived. Linearities were obtained over calibration ranges of 0.0500–12.0 and 10.0–15,000 ng/mL, respectively. The intraday precisions were below 5.5%, the interday precisions were below 6.1%, and accuracies were within –8.1 to 13.0%. Stability tests were conducted and an acidification step was explored to enhance the stability of pivmecillinam and mecillinam. Further stability was validated under various storage and processing conditions. Both methods were applied to a pharmacokinetic study of pivmecillinam and mecillinam after oral administration of 400 mg pivmecillinam hydrochloride tablets in healthy Chinese subjects.

Structure and Performance Modulation of Self-Adhesive SIS/C5 Electrospun Membranes for Transdermal Drug Delivery北大核心CSCD

Electrospun membranes are widely utilized to enhance the water vapor permeability and drug delivery performance of transdermal drug delivery patches. Due to the lack of adhesion property,however,most of them cannot closely contact with skin,which impedes the delivery of drugs to the skin,thus affecting the transdermal administration. C5 resin is used to endow poly（styrene isoprene styrene）（SIS）electrospun membranes with pressure-sensitive adhesion property. Investigation is performed on how to control the structure,adhesion properties and drug delivery performance of SIS/C5 electrospun membranes loaded with synthetic capsaicin via compositions,drugs and electrospinning conditions. The results demonstrate that the electrospun membrane with a SIS/C5 ratio of 2∶1 has excellent water vapor permeability（7. 17×10－3 g/（h·cm2）and adhesion properties（180（°）peel strength is 0. 2 kN/m,tack force is 0. 64 N/cm2 ,holding power is greater than 7 days）. The synthetic capsaicin has good compatibility with the SIS/C5 electrospun membranes,in which no drug crystallizes and the drug loading is beneficial to improve the water vapor permeability. As the drug loading is 8%,the tack force is 0. 6～0. 8 N/cm2 ,the 180（°）peel strength is 0. 2～0. 3 kN/m,the holding power is greater than 7 days,and no residue is left during peeling tests. In vitro drug release indicates that the drug has a behavior of sustained release with a 24-hour cumulative release rate of greater than 50% for all SIS/ C5 electrospun membranes,meeting the requirements of transdermal drug delivery patches. © 2022, Science Press (China).

基于表面增强拉曼光谱技术的心肌生物标志物检测

心血管疾病(CVD)是全球最主要的死亡原因,急性心肌梗死(AMI)是心血管疾病致死的主要病因,安全快速地诊断AMI对于降低患者的死亡率至关重要。因常用的检测方法如心电图(ECG)缺乏足够的敏感性,寻找并针对AMI生物标志物开展高灵敏检测已成为早期检测AMI重要手段。心肌肌钙蛋白I(cTnI)、肌酸激酶同工酶(CK-MB)和肌红蛋白(Myo)是目前公认的检测AMI的重要心肌生物标志物。在过去的几十年里,许多生物传感器被开发出来用于检测心肌生物标志物,其中基于表面增强拉曼光谱(SERS)的心肌生物标志物检测技术迅速发展,并表现出独特的技术优势和广阔的应用前景。本文首先介绍了多种心肌生物标志物及其与AMI的关联,在此基础上概述主要的心肌生物标志物检测方法的原理、优势及局限性,重点介绍近年来新兴的SERS技术及其在心肌生物标志物传感方面的最新研究进展,并对该技术在AMI诊断方面的应用前景以及有待突破的瓶颈进行了讨论和展望。
