镁铝复合氧化物负载铜催化剂上甘油选择性氢解合成丙二醇

我们通过乙醇溶液浸渍法合成出了具有高分散度金属Cu 的Cu/MgO-Al₂O₃ (Mg/Al 原子比=1/1, 3/1, 4/1)、Cu/MgO 和Cu/Al₂O₃ 等催化剂. 在200℃, 6.0 MPa H₂ 和二氧六环溶剂中, 这些催化剂高选择性地将甘油氢解为1,2-丙二醇(选择性>90%), 而单位表面Cu 原子的甘油转化速率则随催化剂表面碱中心与Cu 原子比例的提高而增大. N₂O 化学吸附-H₂ 程序升温还原实验表明Cu 粒子的本征氢解能力不随其负载量以及载体中的Mg/Al 原子比发生明显改变, 加之碱性MgO-Al₂O₃ 载体本身不催化甘油的转化, 我们推测在甘油氢解反应中金属Cu 粒子与载体界面处的碱中心辅助Cu 粒子活化甘油分子的α 位C-H键, 从而加速甘油脱氢为甘油醛步骤以及甘油氢解反应的进行. CO₂程序升温脱附实验以及对甘油氢解反应中Cu/MgO-Al₂O₃ 催化剂稳定性的考察结果暗示在甘油氢解反应中起主要作用的碱中心是载体表面上与Mg²⁺键连的羟基基团(即B 碱OH^-). 这些对甘油氢解反应中金属中心与碱性中心协同作用的认识对进一步理性设计高效的甘油或其它多元醇分子氢解催化剂具有重要指导意义.     

Water-soluble Porphyrin as Temperature Sensor Based on Fluorescent Enhancement

A novel water-soluble porphyrin[5,10,15,20-tetra（3-ethoxy-4-hydroxy-5-sulfonate）phenyl porphyrin, H2TEHPPS] was designed and synthesized, which could be used as a potential fluorescence sensor to detect temperature changes. The studies were performed in solution phase and the concentration of H2TEHPPS was 2.0×10^-5 mol/L. The optical properties of H2TEHPPS were investigated based on the UV and fluorescence spectra. The results show that the fluorescence intensity of H2TEHPPS is directly proportional to temperature in the range of 293-353 K So H,TEHPPS can be used as a molecular temoerature sensor in biomedical and other fields.

Unexpected Room‐Temperature Ferromagnetism in Nanostructured Bi2Te3

There is an urgent need for the development in the field of the magnetism of topological insulators, owing to the necessity for the realization of the quantum anomalous Hall effect. Herein, we discuss experimentally fabricated nanostructured hierarchical architectures of the topological insulator Bi₂Te₃ without the introduction of any exotic magnetic dopants, in which intriguing room‐temperature ferromagnetism was identified. First‐principles calculations demonstrated that the intrinsic point defect with respect to the antisite Te site is responsible for the creation of a magnetic moment. Such a mechanism, which is different from that of a vacancy defect, provides new insights into the origins of magnetism. Our findings may pave the way for developing future Bi₂Te₃‐based dissipationless spintronics and fault‐tolerant quantum computation.     

Molecular Salt Effects in the Gas Phase: Tuning the Kinetic Basicity of [HCCLiCl]− and [HCCMgCl2]− by LiCl and MgCl2

A combination of gas‐phase ion–molecule reaction experiments and theoretical kinetic modeling is used to examine how a salt can influence the kinetic basicity of organometallates reacting with water. [HC?CLiCl]^? reacts with water more rapidly than [HC?CMgCl₂]^?, consistent with the higher reactivity of organolithium versus organomagnesium reagents. Addition of LiCl to [HC?CLiCl]^? or [HC?CMgCl₂]^? enhances their reactivity towards water by a factor of about 2, while addition of MgCl₂ to [HC?CMgCl₂]^? enhances its reactivity by a factor of about 4. Ab initio calculations coupled with master equation/RRKM theory kinetic modeling show that these reactions proceed via a mechanism involving formation of a water adduct followed by rearrangement, proton transfer, and acetylene elimination as either discrete or concerted steps. Both the energy and entropy requirements for these elementary steps need to be considered in order to explain the observed kinetics.     

Breathing Effect in a Cobalt Phosphonate upon Dehydration/Rehydration: A Single‐Crystal‐to‐Single‐Crystal Study

Two cobalt phosphonates, [Co₂(2,2′‐bpy)₂(H₂O)(pbtcH)] ( 1 ) and [Co₂(H₂O)(pbtcH)(phen)₂] ( 2 ; pbtcH₅=5‐phosphonatophenyl‐1,2,4‐tricarboxylic acid, 2,2′‐bpy=2,2′‐bipyridine, phen=1,10‐phenanthroline), with layer structures are reported. Compound 1 contains O‐C‐O and O‐P‐O bridged tetramers of Co₄, which are further connected by pbtcH^4? units to form a layer. In compound 2 , the cobalt tetramers made up of water‐bridged Co₂ dimers and O‐P‐O linkages are connected into a layer by pbtcH^4? units. Upon dehydration, compounds 1 and 2 experience single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal (SC–SC) structural transformations to form [Co₂(2,2′‐bpy)₂(pbtcH)] ( 1 a ) and [Co₂(pbtcH)(phen)₂] ( 2 a ), respectively. The process is reversible in each case. Notably, a breathing effect is observed for 1 , accompanied by pore opening and closing due to the reorientation of the coordinated 2,2′‐bpy molecules. The transformation was also monitored by in situ IR measurements. Magnetic studies reveal that antiferromagnetic interactions are mediated between the magnetic centers in compounds 1 and 1 a , whereas ferromagnetic interactions are dominant in compound 2 .     

Electro‐optical cells using a cellulose derivative and cholesteric liquid crystals

A cellulose derivative/liquid crystal composite‐type electro‐optical cell using a commercial cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) was investigated. The electro‐optical properties of the system were examined, i.e. the dependence on applied voltage of the reflected wavelength and the minimum and maximum transmissions. A thin film of the CLC was dispersed with a cross‐linked cellulose film of 25 µm thickness. In the voltage dependence of the reflected wavelength it was verified that there is a hysteresis in the reflected wavelength. The variation of the reflected wavelength with temperature was also determined. The results are analysed in the framework of similar systems described in the literature for CLC dispersed in a polymer matrix.     

单原子Ge助剂修饰Cu(111)晶面上CO2加氢制甲醇的机理研究

针对CO₂热催化转化制甲醇过程中CO₂吸附、活化较困难及副产物较多的问题,提出采用单原子Ge助剂修饰Cu(111)晶面的解决思路,通过密度泛函理论(DFT)计算研究了CO₂在Ge-Cu(111)晶面上加氢合成甲醇的反应机理。结果表明,单原子Ge助剂的电子调控增加了与其相邻的 Cu 原子的电子云密度,使 CO₂分子在含 Ge 活性界面上的吸附能力显著增强:CO₂在 Ge-Cu(111)晶面上的吸附能约为Cu(111)晶面的1.5倍,约为Pd改性Cu(111)晶面的2.4倍,进而使逆水煤气变换(RWGS)反应路径速控步骤的活化能降低了近 20 kJ·mol^-1,同时衍生出 3条生成甲醇的 RWGS新路径;此外,Ge-Cu(111)晶面上甲酸盐路径由于速控步骤活化能大幅上升而被禁阻,进而CO及烃类等副产物选择性大幅降低,Ge-Cu(111)晶面上CO₂加氢制甲醇选择性升高。
