Density of supercritical CO_2-tetrahydrofuran binary mixture and the partial molar volume of the cosolvent

The densities of supercritical CO2-tetrahydrofuran (cosolvent) binary mixture weremeasured at temperatures in range of 308.15 to 323.15 K and at pressure up to 16.5 MPa.The concentrations of tetrahydrofuran were from 0 to 0.57 mol/L.The partial molar volume of tetrahydrofuran was calculated based on the relationship between the density of the mixture and the concentration of the cosolvent.It is observed that the partial molar volume of the cosolvent is negative and the absolute value decreases with increasing pressure and the concentration of the cosolvent.     

Efficient oxidative dimerization of 1-naphthols to 2,2-binaphthyls with dioxygen mediated by semiconductors

A novel and efficient oxidative dimerization of 1-naphthols 1 with dioxygen in the presence of several semiconductors including SnO₂, ZrO₂, and activated charcoal as catalytic mediators took place selectively to give the corresponding 2,2^′-binaphthols 2 or 2,2^′-binaphthyl-1,1^′-quinones 3 in excellent yields without light irradiation. Among these semiconductors, the catalytic activity of SnO₂ could be fully restored by appropriate reactivation treatment after oxidation. The products 2 and 3 should be useful as synthetic intermediates for natural binaphthyls.

高温下硅酸锂吸收CO2的研究

以SiO₂和Li₂CO₃为反应原料，采用高温固相法于不同温度下合成了一系列可在高温500~750 ℃之间直接吸收CO₂的硅酸锂(Li₄SiO₄)材料。采用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线粉末衍射仪(XRD)分别观察和评价了合成材料的表面形貌与结构特征，用热重分析仪(TG)研究了硅酸锂材料吸收CO₂的性能。实验结果表明，在750 ℃下煅烧6 h即可合成出吸收CO₂性能良好的硅酸锂材料，在CO₂气氛下，于700 ℃保持约15 min即可达到吸收平衡，其吸收量约达43%(wt)左右。与文献报道相比，材料的合成条件有所改善，材料吸收CO₂的容量也有较大提高。

Mesoporous titanium dioxide as a novel solid-phase extraction material for flow injection micro-column preconcentration on-line coupled with ICP-OES determination of trace metals in environmental samples

Mesoporous titanium dioxide as a novel solid-phase extraction material for flow injection micro-column preconcentration on-line coupled with ICP-OES determination of trace metals (Co, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, V, Ce, Dy, Eu, La and Yb) in environmental samples was described. Possessing a high adsorption capacity towards the metal ions, mesoporous titanium dioxide has found to be of great potential as an adsorbent for the preconcentration of trace metal ions in samples with complicated matrix. The experimental parameters including pH, sample flow rate, volume, elution and interfering ions on the recovery of the target analytes were investigated, and the optimal experimental conditions were established. Under the optimized operating conditions, a preconcentration time of 90 s and elution time of 18 s with enrichment factor of 10 and sampling frequency of 20 h⁻¹ were obtained. The detection limits of this method for the target elements were between 0.03 and 0.36 μg L⁻¹, and the relative standard deviations (R.S.D.s) were found to be less than 6.0% (n =7, c =5 ng mL⁻¹). The proposed method was validated using a certified reference material, and has been successfully applied for the determination of the afore mentioned trace metals in natural water samples and coal fly ash with satisfactory results.

Preparation and characterization of silica—polyimide composite membranes coated on porous tubes for CO2 separation

Silica-polyimide microcomposite membranes were prepared on γ-alumina-coated α-alumina support tubes, and their gas permeation properties were evaluated with He, N₂ and CO₂. Smoothing of the substrate surface and hybridization of silica and polyamic acid were both effective to form defect-free thin composite membranes. The CO₂ permeance of a membrane with a silica content of 68 wt% was one order of magnitude higher than that of a polyimide membrane having the same thickness. The permselectivity of CO₂ to N₂ was 30 at 30°C and 13 at 100°C. Contributions of the silica and polyimide phases to permeance of the composite membrane were analyzed with a two-phase permeation model. The effective thickness of the rate-controlling polyimide phase was less than one-tenth of the total thickness of the silica-polyimide membrane.     

Ruthenium-catalyzed one-pot hydroformylation of alkenes using carbon dioxide as a reactant

A new hydroformylation of alkenes using carbon dioxide as a reactant is shown to take place in the presence of ruthenium cluster complexes and halide salts. Similar or even better yields of alcohols were formed as compared to the conventional hydroformylation with CO under the same reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded in three steps: CO₂ is first converted to CO; then it is used as a reagent for hydroformylation to give aldehyde; subsequently, it is hydrogenated to alcohol. ESI-mass spectrometric analyses of the reaction solutions indicated formation of four kinds of ruthenium anionic complexes including tetra-, tri-, and mononuclear species. On the basis of experimental findings, possible roles of these complexes are discussed.
