Visible light photochemical synthesis of ultrasmall palladium/copper bimetallic particles at room temperature and its catalytic application in degradation of p-NP

Pt-based metals are very effective catalysts widely adopted in many fields. But the high cost prevents its further industrial application. One of the effective ways to solve the problem is to replace platinum with relatively cheap palladium and its alloy with copper. However, producing Pd/Cu bimetallic catalysts efficiently and economically with controllable particle size and uniform distribution is still challenging, especially when trying to reduce the consumption of precious metals. In this paper, ultrasmall palladium/copper (Pd/Cu) bimetallic catalysts with even dispersion were prepared on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by adding polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400) as a reducing agent and stabilizer under visible light irradiation at room temperature. The catalytic performance was studied in the catalysis of p-nitrophenol (p-NP) reduction. Of all the bimetallic catalysts produced in different conditions, the best one was obtained under the reaction condition of pH = 7 and violet light irradiation (wavelength 380–435 nm). The average particle size of 0.85 nm, and the apparent rate constant in the catalysis is 1.47 min^?1. This research probes the role of visible light as a key kinetic controlling method in the formation of ultrasmall particles (UPs). It proves the effectiveness of using visible light irradiation as an effective and more “green chemistry” approach to get precious metal UPs as catalysts beyond the traditional ultraviolet or laser photochemistry methods.     

The exact asymptotic behaviour of the unique solution to a singular nonlinear Dirichlet problem

By Karamata regular varying theory, a perturbed argument and constructing comparison functions, we show the exact asymptotic behaviour of the unique solution near the boundary to a singular Dirichlet problem −Δu=b(x)g(u)+λf(u), u>0, x∈Ω, u_|∂Ω=0, which is independent on λf(u), and we also show the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the problem, where Ω is a bounded domain with smooth boundary in RN, λ>0, g∈C¹((0,∞),(0,∞)) and there exists γ>1 such that , ∀ξ>0, , the function is decreasing on (0,∞) for some s₀>0, and b is nonnegative nontrivial on Ω, which may be vanishing on the boundary.     

经理管理防御会影响公司股价同步性吗?

经理人固守职位衍生的管理防御问题是长期困扰公司发展的重要议题。然而,现有研究多将重点置于管理防御如何影响企业财务决策,而对于其是否会影响资本市场则缺乏足够关注。以2007～2018年中国A股上市公司为样本,依据“防御动机→行为选择→经济后果”的逻辑思路,基于股价同步性的视角,考察经理管理防御影响资本市场的客观表现与内在机理。研究发现,公司股价同步性随着经理管理防御水平的提高而显著上升,该结论在控制内生性问题之后依然稳健;影响路径的检验结果表明：经理管理防御对股价同步性的影响通过：(1)经理管理防御→信息操纵→股价同步性;(2)经理管理防御→内幕交易→股价同步性等两条路径得以实现。异质性检验的结论显示,经理管理防御对公司股价同步性的正影响,在未聘请“四大”审计机构和非国有企业的样本中更为显著。上述研究结论不仅从管理防御这一微观层面拓展了股价同步性影响因素领域的文献研究,而且对于提升资本市场配置效率,实现新阶段下中国金融改革的目标,具有一定的指导意义。     

Synthesis, characterization and properties of biodegradable polylactic acid-β-cyclodextrin cross-linked copolymer microgels

The novel biodegradable polylactic acid-β-cyclodextrin (PLA-β-CD) cross-linked copolymer microgels were prepared by the radical copolymerization of PLA macromonomer and polymerizable β-CD derivatives. The β-CD derivatives with various numbers of polymerizable vinyl groups were synthesized from 1-allyloxy-2,3-epoxy propane (also called allylglycidyl ether, AGE) and β-CD. The chemical structures of polymerizable monomers were determined by NMR. The thermal properties, size, morphology, in vitro degradation and swelling behavior of the microgels were investigated. The results indicated that the microgels were stable under thermal conditions up to 200 °C. The microgels were spherical in aqueous solution. The hydrophilicity of the microgels increased with increasing β-CD contents, while the swelling ratios and degradation rate decreased. The more vinyl groups on β-CD, the higher cross-linked density, which resulted in a decrease of the swelling ratios and the rate of degradation.

(Un)substituted benzaldehyde (5‐aryl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl)hydrazones were efficiently synthesized by reactions of (un)substituted benzaldehyde thiocarbohydrazones with aromatic carboxylic acids by using silica‐supported dichlorophosphate as a recoverable dehydrant under microwave irradiation. The protocol has advantages of short reaction time, high yield, easy work‐up procedure and no environmental pollution.     

Determination of isoniazid among pharmaceutical samples and the patients’ saliva samples by using potassium ferricyanide as spectroscopic probe reagent

A novel method to determine isoniazid with high sensitivity and good selectivity has been established by using potassium ferricyanide as spectroscopic probe reagent. In the presence of potassium ferricyanide, it has been demonstrated that iron(III) is reduced to iron(II) by isoniazid at pH 4.0. In addition, the in situ formed iron(II) reacts with potassium ferricyanide to give soluble prussian blue. The absorbance of soluble prussian blue is measured at the absorption maximum of 735 nm, and the amount of isoniazid can be calculated based on this absorbance. A good linear relationship of the concentration of isoniazid versus absorbance is observed with a linear range of 0.040-8.00 μg mL⁻¹. The linear regression equation is A = −0.00286 + 0.28588C (μg mL⁻¹) with a correlation coefficient of 0.9992. The detection limit (3σ/k) is 0.037 μg mL⁻¹, and its relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) is 0.35% (n = 11). Moreover, the apparent molar absorption coefficient of indirect determination of isoniazid is 3.92 × 10⁴ L mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹. The parameters with regard to determination are optimized, and the reaction mechanism is discussed. This method has been successfully applied to the determination of isoniazid in pharmaceutical samples and saliva samples of patients.

Tuning host-guest binding model by different intramolecular alkyl chain lengths in tripodal hosts: An evidence on structure control supramolecular interactions

Supramolecular chemistry has received considerable attention in host-guest recognition. The structure-response relationship of host-guest recognition system is a meaningful issue. Herein, a series of tripodal nitrogen mustard derivatives (TMs) have been developed in this paper. By rationally design the intramolecular alkyl chain lengths of host, the host-guest binding model have been successfully tuned, which underwent a transformation from π-π to multiple hydrogen bonds. This process enhances the host-guest binding force and recognition efficiency.
