Remarkable nanosize effect of zirconia in Au/ZrO2 catalyst for CO oxidation

Nanosize effect of ZrO2 in Au/ZrO2 catalyst was studied by deposition-precipitation of Au nanoparticles in similar sizes (4-5 nm) on ZrO2 nanoparticles of varying sizes. The catalysts were characterized with XRD, TEM, XPS, and nitrogen adsorption to understand the effect of ZrO2 particle size on the catalytic nanostructures. Nanocomposite Au/ZrO2 catalysts consisting of comparably sized Au-metal (4-5 nm) and ZrO2 (5-15 nm) nanoparticles are found advantageous over those containing similarly sized Au-metal but larger ZrO2 (40-200 nm) particles for CO oxidation. This finding may have important implications on the designed preparation of advanced nanostructured catalysts and other chemical materials.     

The Intelligent Properties of Micro－reactors for Preparating Nanoparticles

TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by using micro-reactors. The shape and size of the nanoparticles produced from the original micro-reactors and the five times recycled micro-reactorsmother liquor were investigated on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) by using the original sample, freeze prepared sample, and dyeing treated sample, respectively. UV-VIS spectrometry was used to study the growth process of TiO2 nanoparticles in main reactors. The results showed that micro-reactors with nanometer magnitude had spherical or oval structures, and could restore to their original structure after they were destroyed. The products prepared in the original micro-reactors were similar to that in the micro-reactors recycled for many times, suggesting that the micro-reactors had memory function.     

Two New Steroidal Saponins from Tacca plantaginea

Two new C27 steroidal glycosides, named taccaoside A(1) and B(2), were isolated from the traditional Chinese herb Tacca plantaginea. The spectroscopic and chemical evidences revealed their structures to be 26-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(25R)-3β,26-dihydroxy furost-5,20-diene-3-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1→2)]-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1→3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside(1) and 26-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(25R)-3β,26-dihydroxy furost-5,20-diene-3-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)]-[β-D-glucopyranosyl(1→3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1→3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside(2),respectively.     

南药巴戟天中十二种无机元素与药效关系的进一步研究

在初步研究的基础上，进一步研究了不同产地巴戟天的无机元素含量差异，通过对比各元素含量、相关系数及TE图谱，说明地道药材与非地道药材的巴戟天，其特征元素的含量存在非常明显的差异，要使大面积扩种的药材提高药效，建议根据当地土壤含Mn、Fe、Cr、Co、Ni的含量，以旋微量元素肥料的方法来补充这些元素在土壤中的不足。但在微量元素肥料配方中，应注意巴戟天吸收土壤中的元素时的协同作用和拮抗作用。     

超声辐射下某些含官能团化合物与二氯卡宾的反应

超声辐射在有机反应中的应用日趋广泛。我们曾报道了超声辐射与相转移催化相结合产生二氯卡宾和二溴卡宾的方法及其与烯烃加成反应的结果。该法比单纯使用相转移催化剂或超声辐射更为可取。本文进一步将它用于二氯卡宾与某些含官能团化合物的反应,考察超声辐射的影响。反应是在固-液两相条件下进行的,即以粉末状氢氧化钠为碱,氯仿过量兼作溶剂。结果表明,超声辐射对各类化合物反应的影响有相当明显的差异。     

氟烷基化C_(60)与四（N，N-二甲基）氨基乙烯电荷转移复合物磁性的EPR研究

变温ERP研究揭示氟烷基化富勒烯C_(60)(R_f)_n与四(N,N-二甲基)氨基乙烯 (TDAE)间稳定的电荷转移络合物TDAE-C_(60)(R_f)_n的居里温度高达190K[R_f = C_3F_7，H（CF_2）_4]。而非氟烷基化络合物TDAE-C_(60)的相应值仅为16.1K。 这种铁磁性可能是络合物分子中氟烷基化富勒烯多价阴离子基在相应居里温度下具 有某种有序排列的缘故。     

Order from Chaos: Self‐Assembly of Nanoprism from a Mixture of Tetratopic Terpyridine‐Porphyrin Conformers

Porphyrins have been widely used in the self‐assembly of metallo‐supramolecules. In this study, we introduced 2,2':6,2"‐terpyridine (tpy) into a porphyrin core to synthesize a tetratopic building block with multiple conformers. During the self‐assembly with Zn(II), such a mixture of conformers was able to form a discrete nanoprism with all building blocks in one conformation. Detailed characterizations, including NMR, ESI‐MS and traveling‐wave ion mobility‐mass spectrometry (TWIM‐MS), all supported the formation of the desired assemblies. AFM and TEM further confirmed the dimensions of assembled nanoprisms. Moreover, the photophysical properties of the ligands and complexes were noticeably different depending upon size and metal ion center.     

Preparation and characterization of functional group gradient surfaces

Functional group gradient surfaces where the density of functional groups changes gradually along the sample length were prepared. The functional group (? COOH, ? CONH₂, and ? OH group) gradient surfaces were produced by the treatment of low-density PE sheets using a corona with gradually increasing power, followed by the graft copolymerization of acrylic acid and subsequent substitution reaction of carboxylic acid groups to amide or hydroxyl groups. The prepared gradient surfaces were characterized by the measurement of water contact angle, FTIR-ATR, and ESCA. The gradient surfaces prepared can be used to systematically investigate the interactions of biological or other species in terms of the surface functional groups and their density of polymeric materials. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
