High Carbon-Resistance Ni@CeO<Subscript>2</Subscript> Core–Shell Catalysts for Dry Reforming of Methane

Ni@CeO₂ core–shell catalysts were synthesized via a facile surfactant-assisted hydrothermal method and their catalytic performance in the dry reforming of methane (DRM) reaction was evaluated. A variety of techniques including XRD, N₂ adsorption–desorption, SEM, TEM, TPO, TGA were employed to characterize the prepared or spent catalysts. The encapsulation by the CeO₂ shell, on one side, can restrict the sintering and growth of Ni nanoparticles under harsh reaction conditions. On the other side, compared to the conventional shell material of SiO₂, CeO₂ can provide more lattice oxygens and vacancies, which is helpful to suppress coke deposition. Consequently, the Ni@CeO₂ core–shell catalysts exhibited better catalytic activity and stability in the DRM reaction with respect to the referenced Ni@SiO₂ core–shell catalysts and Ni/CeO₂ supported catalysts.     

Ugi/Diels-Alder串联反应在构建杂环化合物中的应用

杂环化合物广泛存在于天然产物和药物分子中,许多杂环化合物还具有潜在生物活性和药理作用。因此,如何快速高效地构建小分子杂环化合物库成为当今有机合成和药物化学领域的研究热点。Ugi反应在多样性导向合成方面具有得天独厚的优势,能够解决待合成化合物数量庞大、结构复杂的难题;同时,Diels-Alder [4+2]环加成反应能够高效构建碳-碳键,以较高的立体选择性和区域选择性合成六元环系。目前,集二者于一身的Ugi/Diels-Alder串联反应在构建杂环化合物方面展现出了巨大优势和无穷潜能。本文以不同类型的DA反应分类:按照呋喃作为双烯体、吡咯作为双烯体、噻吩为双烯体、口恶唑作为双烯体、 1,2,4-三嗪作为双烯体、苯作为双烯体、不饱和键和芳环共同作为双烯体等对UDA串联反应的研究进行了综述。     

Adsorption of cesium using supermolecular impregnated XAD-7 composite: isotherms,kinetics and thermodynamics

As an effective cesium complex agent, calix[4]biscrown-6 (CBC) applied at a low cost way is of interest. In this study, CBC/XAD-7 was prepared by embedding CBC into XAD-7. Subsequently the as-prepared sorbent was used for the removal of cesium from aqueous solution as functions of HNO₃ concentration, contact time, temperature and initial cesium concentration. The results revealed that the nitric concentration influenced cesium adsorption by complex and protonation interaction. The most effective adsorption happened at the nitric concentration of 1.0 M. The adsorption isotherm well described with the Langmuir model illustrated a monolayer adsorption. Its maximum adsorption capacity was 24.4 mg/g in the 2 M nitric acid aqueous solution. The adsorption kinetics was in accordance with the pseudo-second order model, which indicated a chemisorption. The thermodynamic parameters demonstrated that the adsorption process was exothermal and spontaneous. In addition CBC/XAD-7 showed highly selective recognition toward cesium and good reusability. The study offered an economical and effective material for cesium removal.

     

Monodisperse Six-Armed Starbursts based on Truxene-Cored Multibranched Oligofluorenes: Design,Synthesis, and Stabilized Lasing Characteristics

A series of monodisperse six-armed conjugated starbursts ( Tr1F , Tr2F , and Tr3F ) containing a truxene core and multibranched oligofluorene bridges capped with diphenylamine (DPA) units has been designed, synthesized, and investigated as robust gain media for organic semiconductor lasers (OSLs). The influence of electron-rich DPA end groups on their optoelectronic characteristics has been discussed at length. DPA cappers effectively raise HOMO levels of the starbursts, thus enhancing the hole injection and transport ability. Solution-processed electroluminescence devices based on the resulting six-armed starbursts exhibited efficient deep-blue electroluminescence with clear reduced turn-on voltages (3.2–3.5 V). Moreover, the resulting six-armed molecules showed stabilized electroluminescence and amplified spontaneous emission with low thresholds (27.4–63.9 nJ pulse⁻¹), high net gain coefficients (80.1–101.3 cm⁻¹), and small optical loss (2.6–4.4 cm⁻¹). Distributed feedback OSLs made from Tr3F exhibited a low lasing threshold of 0.31 kW cm⁻² (at 465 nm). The results suggest that the construction of truxene-centered six-armed conjugated starbursts with the incorporation of DPA units can effectively enhance EL properties by precisely regulating the HOMO energy levels, and further optimizing their optical gain properties.

煤的高效催化气化技术是提高煤气化效率的重要途径。目前,除CaCO₃以外,其他碱金属、碱土金属与过渡金属类催化剂都由于成本较高、回收困难等问题并未广泛应用。可弃型催化剂具有廉价、不必回收、环保并兼有调节灰熔特性、固硫等优点,近年来在煤气化领域的研究和应用受到广泛关注。本文综述了国内外几类可弃型催化剂在煤气化领域的研究进展,包括钙基、工业废液、废渣和生物质灰等催化剂的催化特性及其机理,讨论了在实际应用中存在的问题,展望了未来煤气化可弃型催化剂的发展前景。     

金属钯纳米颗粒/氮化钛复合材料对水中2,4-二氯苯酚的电催化氢化脱氯（英文）

随着社会经济的快速发展,含氯有机物,特别是含氯苯系物,在农业、化工和医药等领域的使用量逐年增多,而使用过程中不合理的排放和控制致使含氯苯系物对生态环境,特别是水体环境的污染日趋严重.含氯苯系物具有高致毒致癌性,易生物富集,且很难被完全降解矿化,已被国家环保局认定为优先控制污染物.常规的废水处理工艺,如吸附、氧化及生物降解等,效率不高,且具有二次污染风险.电催化氢化脱氯技术是一种新型特别针对废水中含氯有机污染物的处理工艺,是通过在阴极电解还原水,原位生成原子态氢,以进攻苯环上C.Cl键,通过C.Cl键断裂H原子取代,使含氯苯系物完全转化为苯系物,达到去毒去害化的目的,近年来越来越受到研究者的关注.在整个电催化氢化脱氯技术中,高效稳定的电催化剂合成是关键,决定着脱氯效率、脱氯动力学、产物选择性及能量的利用率.本文报道了一种简易、无需添加任何表面活性剂的湿式还原法制备金属钯/氮化钛(Pd/TiN)和金属钯/碳(Pd/C)复合材料.在该复合材料中,金属钯颗粒具有均一的纳米尺寸(约5.0 nm)和球状形貌,且均匀分布在TiN和C载体上.作为针对水体中代表性含氯苯系物2,4-二氯苯酚的电催化氢化脱氯反应催化剂,Pd/TiN所展现的活性和稳定性均优于TiN和Pd/C,这源于TiN载体的促进作用.当TiN与Pd复合时,相应形成的Pd-TiN界面可改变Pd表面的电子结构,进一步优化Pd产活性氢及其吸附活化2,4-二氯苯酚的性能,因而其催化氢化脱氯活性增加.阴极工作电压是该催化反应中一个重要操作参数,决定了电催化氢化脱氯的效率和最终产物的构成.实验表明,.0.80 V vs Ag/AgCl是最佳操作电压,此时2,4-二氯苯酚的电催化氢化脱氯效率最高,可达到93.27%,且可实现最大程度的2,4-二氯苯酚向苯酚转化.脱氯反应路径研究发现,在Pd/TiN催化剂上2,4-二氯苯酚脱氯反应路径为2,4-二氯苯酚→对位一氯苯酚,邻位一氯苯酚→苯酚,但Pd/TiN对邻位和对位的C.Cl键断裂基本没有选择性.本文提供了一种新的有效调控Pd材料电催化氢化脱氯性能的方法,可望用于其他氢化反应体系的高效催化剂的设计合成,同时可推动电催化氢化脱氯技术在环境污染修复中的应用.

Novel thioxanthone host material with thermally activated delayed fluorescence for reduced efficiency roll-off of phosphorescent OLEDs

A symmetrical host material, 2,7-di(9,9-dimethyl-9H-fluoren-1-yl)-9H-thioxanthen-9-one (DMBFTX), with TADF property was firstly developed. The red phosphorescent OLED based on this TADF host displays a lower EQEs rolloff of 38.8% at a luminance of 10 000 cd/m² as compared to 71.2% of commercial mCP host, which is resulted from the upconversion of DMBFTX from triplet to singlet.
