Boosting the cycling stability of hard carbon with NaODFB-based electrolyte at high temperature

The optimization of electrolyte formulation and the resulting change in the properties of the solid electrolyte interfacial film (SEI) are the key to affecting the cycle stability of sodium ion batteries at high temperatures. Traditional sodium ion electrolytes are prone to decomposition at high temperatures, which leads to a rapid decline in battery performance. Herein, we use an effective strategy to construct a SEI film on hard carbon anodes by introducing self-developed synthetic sodium-difluoro(oxalate)borate (NaODFB)-based ethers electrolyte. This study aims to analyze the compatibility between NaODFB-based electrolyte and hard carbon by theoretical calculations and experimental analysis including Na/Cu cells,In-suit EIS and cyclic voltammetry curves at different scan rates. The results indicate that the Na/HC cells with NaODFB-based electrolyte has excellent cycling stability at 55 °C. The battery delivers a high reversible capacity of 249.9 mAh/g at 100 mA/g due to the stable SEI riched in inorganic substances. This work provides guidance and ideas for the design of sodium-ion battery electrolyte at high temperatures in the future.     

Eine neue und unerwartete Form des Dodecaiodid-Ions I122–: Darstellung und Kristallstruktur des Bis[kalium(dibenzo-18-krone-6)]dodecaiodids [K(C20H24O6)]2I12

Studies of Polyhalides. 32. A New and Unforeseen Shape of the Dodecaiodide Ion I₁₂^2–: Preparation and Crystal Structure of Bis[potassium(dibenzo-18-crown-6)]dodecaiodide [K(C₂₀H₂₄O₆)]₂I₁₂ Particularly iodine rich polyiodides tend to form extended iodine nets by multiply concatenating iodide or triiodide ions through iodine molecules. Therefore the discovery of a not ramified, nearly isolated dodecaiodide ion I₁₂^2– in the new compound [K(C₂₀H₂₄O₆)]₂I₁₂ seems to be unexpected. This ion may be described as an extraordinary long fragment of the triiodide-iodine chain (I₃^– · I₂)_∞.     

Rhodium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Formal [4+1] Cyclization of Benzyl Alcohols and Benzaldimines: Facile Access to Silicon-Stereogenic Heterocycles

The carbon-to-silicon switch in formation of bioactive sila-heterocycles with a silicon-stereogenic center has garnered significant interest in drug discovery. However, metal-catalyzed synthesis of such scaffolds is still in its infancy. Herein, a rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective formal [4+1] cyclization of benzyl alcohols and benzaldimines has been realized by enantioselective difunctionalization of a secondary silane reagent, affording chiral-at-silicon cyclic silyl ethers and sila-isoindolines, respectively. Mechanistic studies reveal a dual role of the rhodium-hydride catalyst. The coupling system proceeds via rhodium-catalyzed enantio-determining dehydrogenative OH silylation of the benzyl alcohol or hydrosilylation of the imine to give an enantioenriched silyl ether or silazane intermediate, respectively. The same rhodium catalyst also enables subsequent intramolecular cyclative C−H silylation directed by the pendent Si-H group. Experimental and DFT studies have been conducted to explore the mechanism of the OH bond silylation of benzyl alcohol, where the Si-O reductive elimination from a Rh(III) hydride intermediate has been established as the enantiodetermining step.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Study of a Disaccharidic Crown Ether.

Abstract

The disaccharidic anhydro derivative 6-O-(5,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene α-D-glucofuranos-3-yl)-1,2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-n-dodecyl-α-D-glucofuranose (1) led to the disaccharidic crown ether 2 in 40% yield when treated at low concentration with 2.5 eq. of KOH in toluene-Me₂SO. Compound 2 structure was proved through a detailed NMR analysis (¹H, ¹³C, ¹H-¹H and ¹³C-¹H 2D correlations). This structural elucidation indicated that compound 2 resulted from the intramolecular attack of the C-5-O^?alkoxide group, generated in the basic medium, on the C-6′ carbon of the 5′,6′-anhydro group.     

Phase Equilibria in the Systems Ethyl 1,1-Dimethylethyl Ether + Benzene + 2,2,4-Trimethylpentane and Benzene + 2,2,4-Trimethylpentane at 94.00 kPa

Abstract

Consistent vapor-liquid equilibria data at 94.00 kPa have been determined for the ternary system ethyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether + benzene + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and for its constituent binary benzene + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, in the temperature range 343 to 370 K. The systems exhibit slight positive deviations from ideal behavior and the system benzene + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane presents an azeotrope. The VLE data have been correlated with the mole fraction using the Redlich-Kister, Wilson, NRTL, UNIQUAC, and Tamir relations. These models, in addition to UNIFAC, allow good prediction of the VLE properties of the ternary system from those of the pertinent binary systems.     

Isobaric Vapor-Liquid Equilibria and Densities for the Binary Systems Oxolane + Ethyl 1,1-Dimethylethyl Ether,Oxolane + 2-Propanol and Propan-2-One + Trichloromethane

Vapor-liquid equilibrium data have been determined at 50 kPa for the binary systems oxolane (THF) + ethyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether (ETBE) and oxolane + 2-propanol, and at 94 kPa for the system propan-2-one + trichloromethane. Excess volumes have also been determined from density measurements at 298.15 K. The systems oxolane + ethyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether and oxolane + 2-propanol exhibit slight to moderate positive deviations from ideal behavior and no azeotrope is present. The system propan-2-one + trichloromethane exhibits negative deviations from ideal behavior and presents an azeotrope. The excess volumes of the system oxolane + ethyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether are negative over the whole mole fraction range while those of the system oxolane + 2-propanol are positive. Excess volumes of the system propan-2-one + trichloromethane, change from negative to positive as the concentration of propan-2-one increases. The activity coefficients and boiling points of the solutions were correlated with the mole fraction by the Wohl, Wilson, UNIQUAC, and NRTL equations, and predicted by the UNIFAC group contribution method. Excess volume data were correlated using the Redlich-Kister expansion. The chemical association theory was applied for explaining the equilibrium behavior of the systems oxolane + 2-propanol and propan-2-one + trichloromethane.
