Interim Anatase Coating Layer Stabilizes Rutile@CrxOy Photoanode for Visible‐Light‐Driven Water Oxidation

Ternary core–shell heterostructured rutile@anatase@Cr_xO_y nanorod arrays were elaborately designed as photoanodes for efficient photoelectrochemical water splitting under visible‐light illumination. The four‐fold enhanced and stabilized visible‐light photocurrent highlights the unique role of the interim anatase layer in accelerating the interfacial charge transfer from the Cr_xO_y chromophore to rutile nanorods.     

Monodispersed AuPd nanoalloy: composition control synthesis and catalytic properties in the oxidative dehydrogenative coupling of aniline

A series of AuPd@C nanoalloy catalysts with tunable compositions were successfully prepared by a co-reduction method. The use of borane-tert-butylamine complex as reductant and oleylamine as both solvent and reductant was very effective for the preparation of the monodispersed nanoalloy. We evaluated the catalytic activity of these AuPd@C nanoalloys for oxidative dehydrogenative coupling of aniline, which showed better catalytic activity than equal amounts of sole Au@C or Pd@C catalyst. The Au₁Pd₃@C catalyst exhibited the best performance, indicating that the conversion and selectivity were improved along with the increase of Pd composition. However if the Pd composition was too high in the AuPd alloy, Au₁Pd₇@C achieved only 81% conversion in this reaction.

Three new phenyl ether derivatives, 3‐hydroxy‐5‐(3‐hydroxy‐5‐methylphenoxy)benzoic acid ( 1 ), 3,4‐dihydroxy‐5‐(3‐hydroxy‐5‐methylphenoxy)benzoic acid ( 2 ), 3‐[3‐hydroxy‐5‐(hydroxymethyl)phenoxy]‐5‐methylphenol ( 3 ), and three known compounds 4 – 6 were obtained from the fermentation broth of Aspergillus carneus HQ889708, which was isolated from sea water from South China Sea. The structures of compounds 1 – 3 were established on the basis of spectroscopic methods including ESI‐MS and NMR. Compounds 4 – 6 were reported before as synthesized products, herein, they are reported from nature for the first time.     

Prognostic Metabolite Biomarkers for Soft Tissue Sarcomas Discovered by Mass Spectrometry Imaging

Metabolites can be an important read-out of disease. The identification and validation of biomarkers in the cancer metabolome that can stratify high-risk patients is one of the main current research aspects. Mass spectrometry has become the technique of choice for metabolomics studies, and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) enables their visualization in patient tissues. In this study, we used MSI to identify prognostic metabolite biomarkers in high grade sarcomas; 33 high grade sarcoma patients, comprising osteosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, myxofibrosarcoma, and undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma were analyzed. Metabolite MSI data were obtained from sections of fresh frozen tissue specimens with matrix-assisted laser/desorption ionization (MALDI) MSI in negative polarity using 9-aminoarcridine as matrix. Subsequent annotation of tumor regions by expert pathologists resulted in tumor-specific metabolite signatures, which were then tested for association with patient survival. Metabolite signals with significant clinical value were further validated and identified by high mass resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) MSI. Three metabolite signals were found to correlate with overall survival (m/z 180.9436 and 241.0118) and metastasis-free survival (m/z 160.8417). FTICR-MSI identified m/z 241.0118 as inositol cyclic phosphate and m/z 160.8417 as carnitine.

Coordination assembly and characterization of red-emitting europium (III) organic/inorganic polymeric hybrids

Novel luminescent ternary organic-inorganic-polymeric hybrid material has been assembled by Eu(3+) complex incorporating into poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrix. The functionalized silylated precursor PDC-Si derived from PDC (2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid chloride) behaves as the coordination units of Eu(3+) ion. The organic polymer was introduced into the system by directly dissolving PMMA in solution of Eu(PDC-Si)(3) complex and N-N-Dimethyl Formamide (DMF) with subsequent addition of tetraethoxysilane to promote hydrolysis and condensation. The structure and photophysical properties of the resulting hybrids are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy and photoluminescence spectra. The luminescence quantum yield was calculated based on the emission spectra and luminescence lifetimes. XRD reveals its amorphous structure. Efficient energy transfer process occurs between PMMA and Eu(3+), and replacement of water molecule by PMMA in the first coordination sphere was confirmed by comparing with the binary hybrid.     

Fragmentation patterns of novel dithiocarbamate derivatives with pharmaceutical activity under electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry conditions

The fragmentation patterns of a novel series of dithiocarbamate derivatives with pharmaceutical activity were investigated by positive ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in conjunction with tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS(n)). In the gas phase, the dithiocarbamate protonated molecules containing the piperazinium moiety undergo losses of bromide to form the piperazinium cation by ionization, followed by subsequent losses of methyl bromide, ring opening and rearrangement of piperazinium. Furthermore, the dithiocarbamate derivatives and their intermediates both undergo cleavage of the C-S bond to produce two common fragment ions. The different fragmentation observed for these compounds facilitated their identification and could be valuable in the further study of their metabolic pathways as prodrugs.     

SSZ-33分子筛的合成、表征及其对汽车尾气中碳氢化合物的捕集性能

采用碘化N,N,N-三甲基-8-氨基-三环[5.2.1.02.6]癸烷为结构导向剂, 通过过程控制方法, 经3-4 d成功合成了高性价比的B-SSZ-33分子筛. 以B-SSZ-33为母体, 经过Al(NO3)3溶液后处理制得了Al-SSZ-33分子筛. 采用X射线衍射(XRD), 傅里叶变换红外(FT-IR)光谱, 扫描电子显微镜(SEM), 热重(TG)分析, 电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱(ICP-AES), N2吸附/脱附, 27Al核磁共振(27Al NMR)和NH3程序升温脱附(NH3-TPD)等手段对合成的B-SSZ-33、Al-SSZ-33样品进行了物理化学性能表征. 并以甲苯作为汽车尾气中碳氢化合物的探针分子, 通过甲苯程序升温脱附测试来考察样品的碳氢捕集性能. 结果表明: 后处理过程中Al同晶取代B, 从而制得了含骨架Al的Al-SSZ-33; 在甲苯的程序升温脱附测试中, 由于Al-SSZ-33相对于B-SSZ-33具有较强的酸性位, 且表面孔口由于骨架外硅铝物种的修饰, 限制了甲苯的扩散, 致使脱附速率最大时的温度(Tmax)和脱附最终的温度(Tend)均升高, 从而形成了新型汽车尾气捕集催化剂的雏形.     

O与O2在Au团簇上吸附的密度泛函理论研究

采用基于密度泛函理论(DFT)的Dmol³程序系统研究了O原子与O₂在 Au₁₉与Au₂₀团簇上的吸附反应行为. 结果表明: O在Au₁₉团簇顶端洞位上的吸附较Au₂₀强; 在侧桥位吸附强度相近. O与O₂在带负电Au团簇上吸附较强, 在正电团簇吸附较弱. 从O―O键长看, 当金团簇带负电时, O―O键长较长, 中性团簇次之, 正电团簇中O―O键长较短, 因而O₂活化程度依次减弱. 电荷布居分析表明, Au团簇带负电时, O与O₂得电子数较中性团簇多, 而团簇带正电时, 得电子数较少. 差分电荷密度(CDD)表明, O₂与Au团簇作用时, 金团簇失电子, O₂的π^*轨道得电子, 使O―O键活化. O₂在Au₁₉^-团簇上解离反应活化能为1.33 eV, 较中性团簇低0.53 eV; 而在Au₁₉⁺上活化能为2.27 eV, 较中性团簇高0.41 eV, 这与O₂在不同电性Au₁₉团簇O―O键活化规律相一致.
