A new approach to highly electrooptically active materials using cross-linkable, hyperbranched chromophore-containing oligomers as a macromolecular dopant

A new, practical approach to a variety of highly electrooptically active polymers for device development is described. It involves the use of a new thermally cross-linkable, hyperbranched oligomer containing nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores as a macromolecular dopant in a common host polymer. A series of NLO polymeric blends were readily formulated and showed large and stable electrooptic (EO) coefficients (up to 65 pm/V). In comparison with previously studied linear NLO polyimides and guest-host polymers doped with molecular chromophores and even linear NLO analogous oligomers, this new approach offers clear advantages for device development in terms of improved poling efficiency, larger EO coefficients, good temporal stability, and versatile material formulation.

Network pharmacology-based screening of the active ingredients and potential targets of the genus of Pithecellobium marthae (Britton & Killip) Niezgoda & Nevl for application to Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with synaptic dysfunction, pathological accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ), and neuronal loss. Given the prevalence of AD and the lack of effective long-term therapies, there is a pressing need to discover viable leads that can be developed into clinically approved drugs with disease-modifying effects. The analysis of current reported literatures confirms the importance of the plants of Pithecellobium genus as candidate against AD. Hence, it is necessary to identify selective anti-dementia agents from this genus. To explore potential compounds with marked effect on AD in Pithecellobium genus, a compound database based on the methods of network pharmacology prediction was established in this paper by constructing the compound-disease target network. The result showed that the most effective compound in the plants of this genus might be (7′R,8′R)-7′-methoxyl strebluslignanol, and the most potential target might be Macrophage colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor.     

A Novel Zirconium-Based Perovskite-Type Membrane Material for Oxygen Permeation

Zirconia with fluorite structure stabilized by doping rare earth or alkaline earth metal oxides such as Y2O3 and CaO (YSZ and CSZ) is a class of traditional mixed conducting membrane materials, which have been widely investigated for their high oxygen ionic conductivity and excellent chemical and thermal stability1-3. But the electronic conductivity of these materials is very small, unless operated with an internal or external circuitry, the oxygen flux through membranes in usual ranges of …     

Comparing study on hydration properties of various cementitious systems

The hydration properties of slag sulfate cement (SSC), slag Portland cement (PSC), and ordinary Portland cement (POC) were compared in this study by determining the compressive strength of pastes, the hydration heat of binders within 72 h, the pore structure, the hydration products, and the hydration degree. The results indicated that main hydration products of PSC paste and POC paste are calcium hydroxide and C–S–H gel, while those of SSC paste are ettringite and C–S–H gel from the analyses of XRD, TG–DTA, and SEM. At the early curing age, the compressive strength depends on the clinker content in the cementitious system, while at the late curing age, which is related to the potential reactivity of slag. From hydration heat analysis, the cumulative hydration heat of PSC is lower than that of POC, but higher than that of SSC. Slag can limit chemical reaction and the delayed coagulation of gypsum, which also plays a role in the early hydration. So SSC shows the lowest heat release and slag can’t be simulated without a suitable alkaline solution. Based on MIP analysis, the porosity of POC paste is the smallest while the average pore size is the biggest. At the age of 90 days, the compressive strength of SSC can get higher development because of its relative smaller pore size than that of PSC and POC paste.     

Modular One‐Step Three‐Component Synthesis of Tetrahydroisoquinolines Using a Catellani Strategy

Reported is a modular one‐step three‐component synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinolines using a Catellani strategy. This process exploits aziridines as the alkylating reagents, through palladium/norbornene cooperative catalysis, to enable a Catellani/Heck/aza‐Michael addition cascade. This mild, chemoselective, and scalable protocol has broad substrate scope (43 examples, up to 90 % yield). The most striking feature of this protocol is the excellent regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity observed for 2‐alkyl‐ and 2‐aryl‐substituted aziridines to access 1,3‐cis‐substituted and 1,4‐cis‐substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines, respectively. Moreover, this is a versatile process with high step and atom economy.
