Boomerang‐Type Substitution Reaction: Reactivity of Fullerene Epoxides and a Halofullerenol

The C_s‐symmetric fullerene chlorohydrin C₆₀(Cl)(OH)(OOtBu)₄ reacts with 4‐dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) to yield two isomers with the formula C₆₀(O)(OOtBu)₄ in good yields. These isomers differ with respect to the location of the epoxy functionality. The one from DMAP is C_s symmetric, whereas that from DABCO is C₁ symmetric with the epoxy group on the central pentagon. Two different mechanisms are proposed to explain the chemoselectivity of these reactions. The reaction with DMAP involves single‐electron transfer as the key step; DMAP acts as the electron donor. A combination of an oxygen‐atom shift and S_N2′′ processes (boomerang substitution) are responsible for the formation of isomer with DACBO. Various related reactions support the proposed mechanisms. The structures of new fullerene derivatives were determined by spectroscopy, single‐crystal X‐ray analysis, and chemical correlation experiments.     

Manganese(III) acetate-mediated free radical reactions of [60]fullerene with beta-dicarbonyl compounds

[60]Fullerene reacted with various beta-dicarbonyl compounds in the presence of Mn(OAc)3*2H2O to generate dihydrofuran-fused [60]fullerene derivatives or 1,4-bisadducts. Dihydrofuran-fused [60]fullerene derivatives 2 could be formed by treatment of alpha-unsubstituted beta-diketones 1a-e or beta-ketoesters 1f and 1g with [60]fullerene in refluxing chlorobenzene in the presence of Mn(III). Solvent-participated unsymmetrical 1,4-bisadducts 3 were obtained through the reaction of [60]fullerene with dimethyl malonate 1h or alpha-substituted beta-dicarbonyl compounds 1i-1n in toluene. A possible reaction mechanism for the formation of different fullerene derivatives is proposed.

碳纳米管添加剂对质子交换膜燃料电池低铂载量膜电极性能的影响研究

以碳纳米管（CNT）作为低铂载量膜电极（CCM）催化层（0.1 mg_Pt·cm^-2）添加剂，研究了CNT的添加方式对催化层微观结构以及膜电极性能的影响.结果表明，与常规低铂载量催化层相比，在其表面喷涂一层CNT或将CNT均匀分散到Pt/C催化层中均有利于提升低铂载量膜电极的输出性能，在70℃和100%相对湿度条件下最高输出功率比常规低铂载量膜电极的0.522 W·cm^-2分别提升了22.4%和60.0%，并且均匀分散添加方式优于分层添加方式.其原因在于分层添加CNT后改善了低铂催化层和气体扩散层之间的接触界面，降低了催化层与扩散层间的接触电阻，而均匀分散添加方式除了可降低界面接触电阻外，还显著改善了低铂催化层中的气体传输，大幅提升了Pt催化剂的利用效率，使得膜电极电化学反应电阻明显降低.进一步对均匀分散添加方式中CNT的载量进行优化，表明CNT添加量为37.5 μg·cm^-2时电池输出性能最佳，70℃和100%相对湿度条件下的最大输出功率达到0.91 W·cm^-2.本研究工作表明，将CNT均匀分散添加到催化层中是一种有效提升低铂载量膜电极性能的方法.

“双一流”背景下高等农业院校有机化学基础课程教学新模式的构建及实践

The crop science of Sichuan Agricultural University is an authorized first-class discipline. As the strategic supporting department for innovative talent cultivation in agriculture and forestry major, we are facing a long-term challenge in reforming the teaching mode for basic course-organic chemistry and cultivating talented students with solid basic knowledge and strong sense of innovation. Herein a thorough survey was performing to establish the executable teaching programs for this course during the "Double-First Class Universities Plan" period. A multidimensional teaching resource library for organic chemistry course was also constructed. The new classroom teaching mode "Interest cultivation-Creative thought development-Autonomous and Cooperative learning", along with a stepwise practice teaching mode "Foundation skills-Integrated application-Innovative trial" was proposed and practiced among thirty-five majors including agriculture, forestry and veterinary, to improve the quality for innovative talent cultivation and support our first-class discipline construction. This research could probably serve as a reference for congeneric agricultural university.     

Silicon Carbide Supported Palladium‐Iridium Bimetallic Catalysts for Efficient Selective Hydrogenation of Cinnamaldehyde

Selective hydrogenation of α,β‐unsaturated carbonyls into saturated carbonyls is important to obtain remunerative products. However, it is still a challenge to achieve high activity and selectivity under mild conditions. Herein, Pd, Ir and bimetallic Pd‐Ir nanoparticles were uniformly deposited with high dispersity on the surface of SiC by a facile impregnation method, respectively. The as‐prepared Pd/SiC catalysts efficiently hydrogenate cinnamaldehyde to hydrocinnamaldehyde at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and the activity of Pd/SiC is observed further enhanced by adding Ir component (conversion of 100%). In addition, the dependence of Pd‐Ir catalyst activity on Pd/Ir molar ratio confirms a synergistic effect between Ir and Pd, which originates from the electron transfer between Pd and Ir.     

Effect of Sulfate on an Iron Manganese Catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis

The effect of sulfate on Fischer-Tropsch synthesis performance was investigated in a slurry- phase continuously stirred tank reactor(CSTR)over a Fe-Mn catalyst.The physiochemical properties of the catalyst impregnated with different levels of sulfate were characterized by N_2 physisorption,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),H_2(or CO)temperature-programmed reduction(TPR),Mφssbauer spectroscopy,and CO_2 temperature-programmed desorption(TPD).The characterization results indicated that the impregnated sulfate slightly decreased the BET surface area and pore volume of the catalyst, suppressed the catalyst reduction and carburization in CO and syngas,and decreased the catalyst surface basicity.At the same time,the addition of small amounts of sulfate improved the activities of Fischer- Tropseh synthesis(FTS)and water gas shift(WGS),shifted the product to light hydrocarbons(C_1-C_(11)) and suppressed the formation of heavy products(C_(12 )).Addition of SO_4~(2-)to the catalyst improved the FTS activity at a sulfur loading of 0.05-0.80 g per 100 g Fe,and S-05 catalyst gave the highest CO conversion(62.3%),and beyond this sulfur level the activity of the catalyst decreased.
