多孔介质中甲烷水合物的分解特性

利用定容降压方法测定了在不同多孔介质中甲烷水合物的分解实验数据, 所使用的多孔介质平均孔径分别为9.03, 12.95, 17.96和33.20 nm, 其中孔径为12.95 nm的多孔介质采用了3个粒径范围, 分别为0.105～0.150, 0.150～0.200和0.300～0.450 mm; 其它孔径的多孔介质的粒径范围为0.105～0.150 mm. 在封闭的条件下测定了不同温度与不同初始生成压力下甲烷水合物的分解实验数据(实验温度范围为269.15～278.15 K, 初始生成压力范围为4.1～11.0 MPa), 结果表明, 水合物的分解速度随着初始生成压力的增加和水浴温度的降低而升高, 也随孔径的增加而升高, 但随多孔介质粒径的增大而降低. 在孔径较大和分解温度较低时, 多孔介质中水合物分解引起的温度降低会使水结冰, 从而减缓水合物的分解速度.     

What to sacrifice? Fusions of cofactor regenerating enzymes with Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases and alcohol dehydrogenases for self-sufficient redox biocatalysis

A collection of fusion biocatalysts has been generated that can be used for self-sufficient oxygenations or ketone reductions. These biocatalysts were created by fusing a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase (cyclohexanone monooxygenase from Thermocrispum municipale: TmCHMO) or an alcohol dehydrogenase (alcohol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus brevis: LbADH) with three different cofactor regeneration enzymes (formate dehydrogenase from Burkholderia stabilis: BsFDH; glucose dehydrogenase from Sulfolobus tokodaii: StGDH, and phosphite dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas stutzeri: PsPTDH). Their tolerance against various organic solvents, including a deep eutectic solvent, and their activity and selectivity with a variety of substrates have been studied. Excellent conversions and enantioselectivities were obtained, demonstrating that these engineered fusion enzymes can be used as biocatalysts for the synthesis of (chiral) valuable compounds.     

CH_4、H_2O在CaCO_3(010)表面吸附的第一性原理研究

基于密度泛函理论第一性原理方法,研究了CH_4和H_2O在CaCO_3(010)面上各高对称位的吸附情况,优化了CH_4与H_2O在T位、 B位和H位的吸附模型结构,计算了其在各高对称位的吸附能,并对其各自最稳定的吸附位吸附前后的物理结构和电子态密度进行了对比分析.结果表明:CH_4、 H_2O分子分别在LBⅢ位、 SBⅢ位最稳定,吸附能分别为-0.405 eV、-0.138 eV,是一种物理吸附,吸附前后键长键角的变化较小,表现为亲气;吸附后CH_4和H_2O的态密度曲线整体向低能量区偏移约7.5 eV、 5eV,吸附后CH_4和H_2O结构都更加稳定,吸附作用对CH_4和H_2O分子的电子结构影响显著.     

单个金或银原子掺杂的氧化钒团簇上的甲烷活化反应

运用密度泛函理论系统研究了甲烷在MV_3O_y~q (M=Au/Ag,y=6–8,q=0或±1)团簇上的吸附和活化。研究得到了吸附体系的微观几何构型、吸附能、电荷分布等性质,找到了5个可以明显活化甲烷分子的含Au团簇。在这些体系中,Au均吸附在基底团簇V_3O_y~q的O位置,而CH_4均在Au原子上被活化。团簇电荷对活化能力有明显影响,阳离子团簇的活化能力最强,中性体系次之,阴离子团簇的活化能力很弱。测试计算表明引入D3色散矫正对于体系结构和能量的计算结果影响不大。本文作为单原子催化剂上甲烷吸附和活化反应的团簇模型研究,为进一步研究单原子催化剂上甲烷的活化机理提供了基础,也为合理设计低温下甲烷转化的单原子催化剂提供了有益的线索。

Comparison of reactivity of alkane hydroxylation with intact cells and cell- free extracts ofMethylosinus trichosporium OB3b

Kinetic studies for hydroxylation of a series of alkanes (methane, ethane and propane) with intact cells and cell-free extracts ofMethylosinus trichosporium OB3b were carried out.K _m values for alkane hydroxylation with cell-free extracts were lower than those with intact cells, suggesting that cytoplasm plays an important role in the solubility of alkanes to increase their concentration.     

Aromatic hydroxylation catalyzed by toluene 4-monooxygenase in organic solvent/aqueous buffer mixtures

Toluene 4-monooxygenase is a four-protein component diiron enzyme complex. The enzyme catalyzes the hydroxylation of toluene to give p-cresol with ∼96% regioselectivity. The performance of the enzyme in two-phase reaction systems consisting of toluene, hexane, or perfluorohexane and an aqueous buffer was tested. In each of the cosolvent systems, containing up to 93% (v/v) of solvent, the enzyme was active and exhibited regioselectivity indistinguishable from the aqueous reaction. Using the perfluorohexane/buffer system, a number of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were oxidized that were not readily oxidized in aqueous buffer. An instability of the hydroxylase component and a substantial uncoupling of NADH utilization and product formation were observed in reactions that were continued for longer than ∼3 min. More stable enzyme complexes will be needed for broad applicability of this hydroxylating system in nonaqueous media.     

Performance of a Herriott cell, designed for variable temperatures between 296 and 20 K

We designed, fabricated and tested a multipath Herriott cell (or off-axis spherical mirror interferometer) to achieve low temperature absorption measurements. The cell is fabricated entirely from copper, and the 15 cm radius of curvature copper mirrors have gold coated reflective surfaces. The cell was tested at temperatures between 296 and 20 K with a folded absorption path length of 5.37 m utilizing a lead salt tunable diode laser. Short term temperature stability (1 h) of the Herriott cell is better than 0.005 K under normal operating conditions with a temperature uniformity better than 0.01 K (not measurable). The cell was tested by performing collisional cooling experiments on ¹³C¹⁶O₂ in helium at temperatures between 70 and 20 K and by performing more traditional pressure broadening and shift measurements on molecular infrared absorption lines at temperatures between 300 and about 80 K on ¹³C¹⁶O₂ and methane.
