Improved synthetic route to n-B18H22

Simple iodine oxidation of the B(9)H(12)(-) anion in toluene at room temperature reliably gives excellent yields ( approximately 80%) of n-B(18)H(22) (anti-B(18)H(22)) and thus provides a convenient, large-scale, safe route to this important polyborane cluster.     

Degradation and Pathways of Carvone in Soil and Water

Carvone is a monoterpene compound that has been widely used as a pesticide for more than 10 years. However, little is known regarding the fate of carvone, or its degradation products, in the environment. We used GC-MS (gas chromatography–mass spectrometry) to study the fate of carvone and its degradation and photolysis products under different soil and light conditions. We identified and quantified three degradation products of carvone in soil and water samples: dihydrocarvone, dihydrocarveol, and carvone camphor. In soil, dihydrocarveol was produced at very low levels (≤0.067 mg/kg), while dihydrocarvone was produced at much higher levels (≤2.07 mg/kg). In water exposed to differing light conditions, carvone was degraded to carvone camphor. The photolysis rate of carvone camphor under a mercury lamp was faster, but its persistence was lower than under a xenon lamp. The results of this study provide fundamental data to better understand the fate and degradation of carvone and its metabolites in the environment.     

双配体配位的Ni(Ⅱ)、Cu(Ⅱ)金属配合物的结构和性能

本文采用水热合成法制备了两个含有咪唑类配体的配位聚合物:{Ni(nip)(p-bix)(H₂O)₂}_n (1)和{Cu(bbi)(dgc)}_n (2) (nip=5-硝基间苯二甲酸;p-bix=1,4-双(咪唑基-1-甲基)苯;bbi=1,1’-(1,4-丁二基)二咪唑;dgc=3,3-二甲基戊二酸)。通过 X 射线单晶衍射、元素分析、PXRD和TGA对配合物进行表征。结果表明,配合物1为具有规则有序孔道结构的一维双链结构,其孔道结构中的—NO₂赋予金属有机框架(MOF)潜在的应用价值。此外,在分子间氢键的作用下,一维链拓展成三维超分子网络结构。而配合物2则是四连接的{6⁵·8}三维拓扑结构,两个配体通过螺旋式盘绕出规则的孔道架构,丰富的分子间氢键使其骨架结构更加稳固。在2~300 K,外加磁场1 000 Oe的条件下,对这两个配合物进行磁学性质研究,在测定的温度范围内对测试的变温磁化率数据进行居里-外斯线性拟合,拟合得到配合物1和2的居里外斯温度分别为1.73 K和6.78 K,证明两种配合物之间均存在弱的铁磁相互作用。     

新型含氟基质在基质辅助激光解析电离飞行时间质谱法测定全氟磺酸中的应用北大核心CSCD

基于Witting反应,制备了可用于酸性小分子分析的新型基质1,1-二(3-氟苯基)乙烯(EDF),并通过核磁共振和质谱确认了EDF的结构.首先取适量EDF溶于二氯甲烷中,涡旋振荡5min,配制成1g·L^(-1)的EDF基质溶液;将食品级包装材料汉堡包装纸剪成0.5cm×0.5cm的碎片,取100.00mg在5mL甲醇中室温超声提取2h,过0.22μm滤膜,得到待测样品溶液.然后采用逐层点样的方法,移取0.6μL的EDF基质溶液快速点在不锈钢靶板圆点处,以二氯甲烷为溶剂的EDF基质溶液迅速挥干,因其沸点低以及移取的量少,正好覆盖圆点的范围,再移取0.8μL待测样品溶液点在不锈钢靶板的相同位置,待其自然挥干后,进行基质辅助激光解析电离飞行时间质谱(MALDI-TOFMS)分析,并对比了EDF与常用基质9-氨基吖啶(9-AA)、α-氰基-4-羟基肉桂酸(CHCA)以及1,6-二苯基-1,3,5-己三烯(DPH)对全氟辛烷磺酸(PFOS)和全氟丁烷磺酸(PFBS)的检测性能.结果表明,EDF可以达到和上述几种常见基质类似的信号强度,且背景更干净、几乎无基质干扰峰.以EDF为基质,以二十一烷酸为内标,建立的PFOS和PFBS标准曲线的线性范围均为20~250μg·L^(-1),检出限(3S/N)均为1μg·L^(-1).按标准加入法对实际包装纸样品进行回收试验,回收率为90.3%~108%,测定值的相对标准误差(n=7)在30%以内.说明该EDF基质检测结果较理想,适用于检测包装材料中的全氟磺酸.
