Carbon Dots Prepared by Hydrothermal Treatment of Dopamine as an Effective Fluorescent Sensing Platform for the Label‐Free Detection of Iron(III) Ions and Dopamine

A facile, economic and green one‐step hydrothermal synthesis route using dopamine as source towards photoluminescent carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) is proposed. The as‐prepared CNPs have an average size about 3.8 nm. The emission spectra of the CNPs are broad, ranging from approximately 380 (purple) to approximately 525 nm (green), depending on the excitation wavelengths. Due to the favorable optical properties, the CNPs can readily enter into A549 cells and has been used for multicolor biolabeling and bioimaging. Most importantly, the as‐prepared CNPs contain distinctive catechol groups on their surfaces. Due to the special response of catechol groups to Fe³⁺ ions, we further demonstrate that such wholly new CNPs can serve as a very effective fluorescent sensing platform for label‐free sensitive and selective detection of Fe³⁺ ions and dopamine with a detection limit as low as 0.32 μM and 68 nM , respectively. The new “mix‐and‐detect” strategy is simple, green, and exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity. The present method was also applied to the determination of Fe³⁺ ions in real water samples and dopamine in human urine and serum samples successfully.     

“Ghost peaks” of olmesartan medoxomil: Two solution degradation products of olmesartan medoxomil via oxidation mediated by metal ions

Two unknown solution degradants were found during the dissolution testing in 0.1-M HCl for olmesartan medoxomil (OLM) tablets. The structure of the degradants was identified and characterized by liquid chromatography–ultraviolet (LC–UV), liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and demonstrated to be cyclization of tetrazole and benzene in the olmesartan (OL) and OLM structures. A series of studies including stress studies, simulation studies, and mechanism-based studies were performed to reveal the potential mechanisms that lead to the formation of the unknown degradants. The study results demonstrated that the degradation was catalyzed with radicals that originated from the metal ions leached from the inner surface of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) glass vials with dissolved oxygen under acidic condition. Prerinsing the glass vials with acidic solution dissolved with EDTA can effectively avoid the generation of such oxidative impurities. The present work provides new insights into the understanding of degradation pathways of OLM, which might support the development of OLM tablets.     

Cu Doping-Induced Transformation from [Ag62S12(SBut)32]2+ to [Ag62−xCuxS12(SBut)32]4+ Nanocluster

The change in the valence state of nanocluster can induce remarkable changes in the properties and structure. However, achieving the valence state changes in nanoclusters is still a challenge. In this work, we use Cu²⁺ as dopant to “oxidize” [Ag₆₂S₁₂(SBu^t)₃₂]²⁺ (4 free electrons) to obtain the new nanocluster: [Ag_62−xCu_xS₁₂(SBu^t)₃₂]⁴⁺ with 2 free electrons. As revealed by its structure, the [Ag_62−xCu_xS₁₂(SBu^t)₃₂]⁴⁺ (x=10∼21) has a similar structure to that of [Ag₆₂S₁₂(SBu^t)₃₂]²⁺ precursor and all the Cu atoms occupy the surface site of nanocluster. It′s worth noting that with the Cu atoms doping, the [Ag_62−xCu_xS₁₂(SBu^t)₃₂]⁴⁺ nanocluster is more stable than [Ag₆₂S₁₂(SBu^t)₃₂]²⁺ at higher temperature and in electrochemical cycle. This result has laid a foundation for the subsequent application and exploration. Overall, this work reveals crystals structure of a new Ag−Cu nanocluster and offers a new insight into the electron reduction/oxidation of nanocluster.     

A large class of binary ZCZ sequence families constructed by period doubling

In an Approximately Synchronized Code Division Multiple Access （AS-CDMA） communication system, a family with large number of Zero Correlation Zone （ZCZ） sequences is desired, which can satisfy the rapid increase of users. This paper presents a method to generate a （2L,2M, ZCZ＇）-ZCZ sequence family from an original （L,M,ZCZ）-ZCZ sequence family, where ZCZ＇ = ZCZ if ZCZ is even and ZCZ＇ =ZCZ - 1 if ZCZ is odd. This method can also recursively act on a ZCZ sequence family to construct a series of ZCZ sequence families with large sequence number and zero correlation zone length identical to or one less than that of original ZCZ sequences.
