A pair of epimeric cassane-type diterpenoids and a new labdane-type derivative from Caesalpinia decapetala

Caesaldecins A and B (1a/1b), a pair of epimeric cassane-type diterpenoids containing an ether linkage between C-6 and C-20 and an α,β-butenolide ring in the northern hemisphere, were isolated from the leaves of the medicinal plant Caesalpinia decapetala (Roth) Alston, along with a new labdane-type diterpenoid, termed as 8(17),11(Z),13(E)-trien-15,18-dioic acid (2). Structures of 1 and 2 were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. The in vitro antibacterial and inhibitory activities against a panel of bacteria and cancer cell lines were evaluated, respectively. Compound 2 displayed moderate antibacterial activity against the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus (MRSA) with an MIC₅₀ value of 5.99?μg?mL^?1.     

Density-Dependence of Nuclear Symmetry Energy: Role of QCD Chiral Phase Transition

The density-dependence of symmetry energy is of particular importance to many problems in nuclear physics and astrophysics. By using the functional path integral method, we show explicitly the relation between nuclear symmetry energy and isospin susceptibility. The latter one is found to be a probe to the QCD chiral phase transition. We further found in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model calculations that, the nuclear symmetry energy has an abrupt change at the critical nuclear density where the chiral symmetry restores partially.     

Functional mesoporous poly (ionic liquid) derived from P123: From synthesis to catalysis and alkylation of styrene and o‐xylene

A novel strategy was proposed for the fabrication of high‐performance acidic mesoporous poly ionic liquids catalyst. In this work, mesoporous poly ionic liquids (MPILs) were synthesized with P123 (PEO₂₀PPO₇₀PEO₂₀) served as pore‐forming agent. Then, MPILs were treated with PW^3? anion exchange, thereby fabricating PW/MPIL‐S(x). MPIL and PW/MPIL‐S(x) were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Thermogravimetric analysis (TA), N₂ adsorption–desorption and Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectra and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra. The effect of solvent and concentration of P123 on the morphology and mesoporous structure of MPILs were investigated systematically. And the results show that MPILs were featured with mesoporous channel structure, high surface area (up to 737 m²/g) and large pore volumes (1.16 cm³/g), which benefit heterogeneous phase reaction (such as, alkylation of styrene with o‐xylene). In the alkylation reaction, under optimal reaction conditions, the catalyst PW/MPIL‐THF (4.0 g) shows high conversion of styrene (100%) and PXE yield (96.21%), demonstrating the excellent catalytic activities. Furthermore, PW/MPIL‐S(x) are easy to be separated from the catalytic system by filtration and show no obvious decrease in catalytic activity after 6 cycle runs. The obtained PW/MPIL‐S(x) catalyst exhibit high thermal and mechanical stability as well, indicating extensive application in high temperature acidic catalysis. This work might open up a new method for the synthesizing of porous polymer catalysts in the future.

考虑Hansbo渗流的砂井地基大变形固结问题 1)

基于Gibson大变形固结理论,通过引入Hansbo渗流模型和软黏土非线性变形特性,同时考虑土层的沉积效应,分别建立了以孔隙比$e$和超孔压$u$表示的砂井地基大变形固结方程。通过与已有研究成果的对比,验证了本文方法的可靠性和砂井地基大变形固结方程两种描述方式的等效性。通过FlexPDE得到方程的数值解,在此基础上,研究了砂井地基大、小应变固结理论与Barron固结解的差异性,探讨了Hansbo渗流参数$m$和$I_1$对砂井地基固结的影响,最后对比分析了砂井地基轴对称固结、径向固结和竖向一维固结的关系。研究结果表明：考虑Hansbo渗流的砂井地基非线性大变形固结模型的固结速率最慢,且在固结后期,Hansbo渗流时大、小应变固结与Barron固结的平均固结度基本趋近;随着Hansbo渗流参数$m$和$I_1$的逐渐增大,砂井地基的固结速率逐渐降低;随着砂井影响半径的增大,砂井地基轴对称固结与径向固结的差异性也越来越大,且在固结早期会出现一维竖向固结速率高于轴对称固结和径向固结的现象。     

Highly Ordered Mesoporous Tungsten Oxides with a Large Pore Size and Crystalline Framework for H2S Sensing

An ordered mesoporous WO₃ material with a highly crystalline framework was synthesized by using amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)‐b‐polystyrene (PEO‐b‐PS) diblock copolymers as a structure‐directing agent through a solvent‐evaporation‐induced self‐assembly method combined with a simple template‐carbonization strategy. The obtained mesoporous WO₃ materials have a large uniform mesopore size (ca. 10.9 nm) and a high surface area (ca. 121 m² g^?1). The mesoporous WO₃‐based H₂S gas sensor shows an excellent performance for H₂S sensing at low concentration (0.25 ppm) with fast response (2 s) and recovery (38 s). The high mesoporosity and continuous crystalline framework are responsible for the excellent performance in H₂S sensing.

Monoacylation of unprotected symmetrical diamines with resin-bound benzoic acids

A protocol for monoacylation of unprotected symmetrical diamines with a resin-bound benzoic acid is described. The nature of the resin (gel-based polystyrene vs highly crosslinked macroporous polystyrene) was found to play a minor role in acylation selectivity. Rather, the concentration of the diamine dictates the ratio of mono- and diacylated products. Thus, by employing a high concentration of symmetrical diamine (e.g., 1 M, 20 equiv), monoacylation can be selectively achieved for a variety of unprotected symmetrical alkyl and aryl diamines.
