A High－efficiency Preparation, Properties and Structure of （R, S ）－and （ S, S）－Pyrrolidine－2－carboxylic Acid 3,5－Dioxa－4－boracvclo.hepta [ 2,1－α; 3,4－α′] dinaphthalen－4－yl Esters

A highly-efficient preparative procedure for ( R, S )- and ( S, S)-pyrroHdine-2-carboxyHc acid 3,5-dioxa-4-boracyclohepta[2, 1-α ; 3,4-α′] dlnaphthalen-4-yl esters [ namely ( R, S )-BNBAP and (S, S )-BNBAP] is described and the crystal structure of (R, S )-BNBAP was obtained. The data indicate that ( R, S )-BNBAP is a spirocyclic inner borate salt with almost normal te-trahedral configuration. This structural form may be the basic reason for their high chemical, optical and thermodynamic sta-bility.     

Seed Priming with Devosia sp. Cell-Free Supernatant (CFS) and Citrus Bioflavonoids Enhance Canola and Soybean Seed Germination

Climate change, environmental pollution and associated abiotic stresses are beginning to meaningfully affect agricultural production worldwide. Salt stress is, however, one of the most important threats that significantly impairs plant growth and development. Plants in their early growth stages such as seed germination, seed emergence and early seedling growth are very sensitive to salt stress. Among the range of sustainable techniques adopted to improve seed germination and early plant growth is seed priming; however, with the use of ecofriendly substances, this is one of the most effective and economically viable techniques to improve seed tolerance against such environmental stresses. For instance, priming with appropriate non-synthetic compounds including microbial biostimulants are prominent ways to sustainably address these challenges. Therefore, in this research, by using the “priming technique”, two biostimulants were tested for their potential as sustainable approaches to improve canola and soybean seed germination under salt stress and optimal growth conditions. Canola and soybean seeds were primed with flavonoids extracted from citrus fruits (flavopriming) and cell-free supernatant (CFS; produced by a novel strain of Devosia sp.—SL43), alone and in combination, and exposed to low–higher levels of salt stress and ideal growth conditions. Both biostimulants showed promising effects by significantly improving seed germination of soybean and canola under both ideal and stressful conditions. However, increases in seed germination were greater under salinity stress as flavonoids and CFS with stress amelioration effects showed substantial and statistically significant improvements in seed germination under varying levels of salt stress. In addition, combinations (mixtures) of both biostimulants were tested to determine if their effects might be more additive or multiplicative than the individual applications. However, results suggested incompatibility of both biostimulants as none of the combinations showed better results than that of the individual applications of either flavonoids or CFS. Conceivably, the use of flavonoids and this novel Devosia sp. CFS could be significant plant growth enhancers, perhaps much better than the few other biostimulants and bacterial-based compounds currently in use.

金属盐对生物质热解特性影响试验研究

基于深入了解生物质热解行为的目的,在自行研制的热解机理试验台上系统研究了金属盐对生物质热解的影响规律。试验结果表明,钾离子对生物油中的一些大分子量组分发生重聚反应生成焦炭和小分子气体产物具有强烈的催化作用,从而降低了热解生物油产量而得到更多的焦炭和气体产物。相比钾离子而言,钙离子对焦炭生成的促进作用更为强烈;镁离子对白松热解的影响远没有钾离子和钙离子明显。     

3 GPa熔融盐固体介质三轴高温压力容器的轴压摩擦力标定

 在温度标定和围压标定的基础上,采用轴压循环方法,对3 GPa固体介质三轴高温高压实验系统的轴压摩擦力进行了标定,分析了围压、温度、轴向位移速率、装样方式（盐套类型）等实验条件对轴压摩擦力的影响。结果表明：静摩擦力、挤压摩擦力和滑动摩擦力3种轴压摩擦力对轴向应力的影响不同,其中静摩擦力和挤压摩擦力对轴向应力的影响很小,影响应力精度的主要是滑动摩擦力。静摩擦力及滑动摩擦力与围压正相关;静摩擦力与轴向位移速率正相关,但受其影响较小,滑动摩擦力不受其影响;静摩擦力和滑动摩擦力与温度负相关,并且受其影响较显著;盐套类型对轴压摩擦力的影响较大,当实验条件接近盐套熔点时,轴压摩擦力显著降低,当样品周围的盐套处于熔融状态时,轴压摩擦力最小。基于此,确定了标定轴压摩擦力的具体步骤,并对角闪岩的应力-应变曲线进行了轴压摩擦力标定。对比轴压摩擦力校正前、后的应力-应变曲线发现,经过轴压摩擦力校正的应力-应变曲线能更好地反映样品的实际变形情况。     

Silica Gel Catalyzed Conversion of Dimethyl 2-(5-Bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)butanedioate to Methyl 6-Bromo-2-oxo-2H-chromene-4-carboxylate in Solvent-Free Conditions

Protonation of the highly reactive 1:1 intermediates, produced in the reaction between triphenylphosphine and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, by 4-bromophenol leads to vinyltriphenylphosphonium salt, which undergoes aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction with conjugate base to produce dimethyl 2-(5-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)butanedioate. Silica gel was found to catalyze conversion of dimethyl 2-(5-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)butanedioate to methyl 6-bromo-2-oxo-2H-chromene-4-carboxylate in solvent-free conditions at 80°C in fairly high yield.

New π-Extended Donors: Synthesis,Characterization, Electrochemical and Electrical Conductivity Studies

A new series of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) molecules with extended π-system was prepared by using a Wittig reaction to generate the TTF key. The process of deprotection-alkylation of thiolates provided access to a wide variety of molecules. The study of their reducing power was carried out by cyclic voltammetry. Charge transfer complexes have also been chemically prepared by using TCNQ as an electron acceptor; the electrical conductivity of their compressed powders shows insulator behavior. The IR spectra of the TCNQ salts were recorded and used to characterize and estimate the degree of charge transfer of these complexes.
