Thermally Induced Carbohydroxylation of Styrenes with Aryldiazonium Salts

The radical carbohydroxylation of styrenes with aryldiazonium salts has been achieved under mild thermal conditions. A broad range of aryldiazonium salts was tolerated, and the reaction principle based on a radical–polar crossover mechanism could be extended to carboetherification as well as to a two‐step, metal‐free variant of the Meerwein arylation leading to stilbenes.     

The Carboxyl Functionalized UiO-66-(COOH)2 for Selective Adsorption of Sr2+

Efficient and selective removal of ⁹⁰Sr is an important process for the safe use of nuclear energy. Herein, we investigate and assess the Sr²⁺ adsorption properties of a metal-organic framework UiO-66-(COOH)₂ functionalized by non-bonded carboxylic groups. This MOF is an exciting class of free carboxylic functionalized MOFs that combine chemical stability with gas sorption, dye elimination, and conductivity. Specifically, we show that uniformly distributed carboxyl and water stability make it accessible for loading Sr²⁺ without structural changes. The FTIR spectroscopy, PXRD analysis, XPS, and SEM-EDS studies show excellent stability as well as the strong affinity between -COOH active site and Sr²⁺. This strong coordination interaction guarantees a high adsorption capacity of 114 mg g⁻¹ within 5 h (pH 5 and 298 K). Combined kinetic and thermodynamic studies show that the surface complexation is strong chemisorption and cost-effective spontaneous process (ΔG = −5.49 kJ mol⁻¹~−2.16 kJ mol⁻¹). The fact that UiO-66-(COOH)₂ not only possesses a high adsorption capacity, but also enables selectivity to Sr²⁺ in the presence of similar radius ions Na⁺ and K⁺, prefigures its great potential for the practical treatment of radioactive Sr²⁺ in polluted water.     

Electrochemistry of Cobalta Bis(dicarbollide) Ions Substituted at Carbon Atoms with Hydrophilic Alkylhydroxy and Carboxy Groups

In this study we explore the effect on the electrochemical signals in aqueous buffers of the presence of hydrophilic alkylhydroxy and carboxy groups on the carbon atoms of cobalta bis(dicarbollide) ions. The oxygen-containing exo-skeletal substituents of cobalta bis(dicarbollide) ions belong to the perspective building blocks that are considered for bioconjugation. Carbon substitution provides wider versatility and applicability in terms of the flexibility of possible chemical pathways. However, until recently, the electrochemistry of compounds substituted only on boron atoms could be studied, due to the unavailability of carbon-substituted congeners. In the present study, electrochemistry in aqueous phosphate buffers is considered along with the dependence of electrochemical response on pH and concentration. The compounds used show electrochemical signals around −1.3 and +1.1 V of similar or slightly higher intensities than in the parent cobalta bis(dicarbollide) ion. The signals at positive electrochemical potential correspond to irreversible oxidation of the boron cage (the C2B9 building block) and at negative potential correspond to the reversible redox process of (CoIII/CoII) at the central atom. Although the first signal is typically sharp and its potential can be altered by a number of substituents, the second signal is complex and is composed of three overlapping peaks. This signal shows sigmoidal character at higher concentrations and may be used as a diagnostic tool for aggregation in solution. Surprisingly enough, the observed effects of the site of substitution (boron or carbon) and between individual groups on the electrochemical response were insignificant. Therefore, the substitutions would preserve promising properties of the parent cage for redox labelling, but would not allow for the further tuning of signal position in the electrochemical window.     

K+和Al3+掺杂对掺Er3+溶胶凝胶玻璃发光特性的影响

通过Sol-gel(溶胶-凝胶)技术,首次将Al3 离子和K 离子同时引入到掺Er3 硅酸盐玻璃中,并测定了硅基玻璃中Er3 离子的吸收光谱、透射光谱、光致发光光谱(PL谱)、上转换光谱、拉曼光谱及荧光寿命.结果显示:掺入的Al3 离子和K 离子不但分别使Er3 离子的荧光强度增强20倍和70倍,而且使Er3 离子在1 532 nm处的荧光寿命从4.8 ms延长至7.1和11.2 ms,但经过进一步分析可知两者对其的影响机制却完全不同;同时作者发现,在980 nm波长激发下,Er3 离子的上转换荧光应该同时存在两种发光机制:双光子吸收和能量传递上转换.

Luminescence properties of Y3Al5O12:Ce nanoceramics

Comparative analysis of the luminescent properties of Y₃Al₅O₁₂:Ce (YAG:Ce) transparent optical ceramics (OС) with those of single crystal (SC) and single crystalline film (SCF) analogues has been performed under excitation by pulsed synchrotron radiation in the fundamental absorption range of YAG host. It has been shown that the properties of YAG:Ce OC are closer to the properties of the SCF counterpart, where Y_Al antisite defects are completely absent, rather than to the properties of SC of this garnet with large concentration of Y_Al antisite defects. At the same time, the luminescence spectra of YAG:Ce OC show weak emission bands in the 200-470 nm range related to Y_Al antisite defects and charged oxygen vacancies (F⁺ and F centers). YAG:Ce ОС also possesses significantly larger contribution of slow components in the Ce³⁺ luminescence decay under high-energy excitation in comparison with SC and SCF of this garnet due to the involvement of antisite defects, charged oxygen vacancies as well as boundaries of grains in the energy transfer processes from the host to the Ce³⁺ ions.     

Electronic structure and dynamics of ordered clusters with ME or RE ions on oxide surface

Selected data of ab initio simulation of the electronic structure and spectral properties of either cluster with ions of iron, rare earth or actinium group elements have been presented here. Appearance of doped Cr⁺⁴ ions in oxides, Cu⁺² in HTSC, Nd⁺² in solids has been discussed. Analysis of experimental data for plasma created ordered structures of crystallites with size of about 10^-9 m on surface of separate oxides are given, too. Change in the spectroscopic properties of clusters and nano-structures on surface of strontium titanate crystals discussed shortly using the X-ray line spectroscopy experimental results.     

Optical and fluorescence spectroscopy of Eu2O3-doped P2O5-K2O-KF-MO-Al2O3 (M = Mg, Sr and Ba) glasses

Fluorophosphate glasses of composition, P₂O₅ + K₂O + KF + MO + Al₂O₃ + xEu₂O₃ (M = Mg, Sr and Ba; x = 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 and 6.0 mol%) were prepared and characterized their optical properties. Crystal-field (CF) analysis revealed a relatively weak CF strength around Eu³⁺ ions in the Ba based fluorophosphate glasses. The Judd-Ofelt parameters have been estimated from the oscillator strengths of ⁷F₀ → ⁵D₂, ⁷F₀ → ⁵D₄ and ⁷F₀ → ⁵L₆ absorption transitions of Eu³⁺ ions and were used to evaluate the radiative properties of the ⁵D₀ → ⁷F_J (J = 0-4) transitions. Considerable variation has been observed in the relative intensity ratio of ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ to ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₁ transitions of Eu³⁺ ions due to change in the alkaline earth metal ions. The decay of the ⁵D₀ level shows single exponential and less sensitive to Eu³⁺ ions concentration as well as MgO/SrO/BaO modifiers.     

Photoluminescence spectra of thenardite Na2SO4 activated with rare-earth ions, Ce, Sm, Tb, Dy and Tm

Five Na₂SO₄:RE³⁺ phosphors activated with rare-earth (RE) ions (RE³⁺=Ce³⁺, Sm³⁺, Tb³⁺, Dy³⁺ and Tm³⁺) were synthesized by heating natural thenardite Na₂SO₄ from Ai-Ding Salt Lake, Xinjiang, China with small amounts of rare-earth fluorides, CeF₃, SmF₃, TbF₃, DyF₃ and TmF₃, at 920 °C in air. The photoluminescence (PL) and optical excitation spectra of the obtained phosphors were measured at 300 and 10 K. In the PL spectrum of Na₂SO₄:Ce³⁺ at 300 K, two overlapping bands with peaks at 335 and 356 nm due to Ce³⁺ were first observed. Narrow bands observed in PL and excitation spectra of Na₂SO₄:RE³⁺ (RE³⁺=Sm³⁺, Tb³⁺, Dy³⁺ and Tm³⁺) phosphors were well identified with the electronic transitions within the 4fⁿ (n=5, 8, 9 and 12) configurations of RE³⁺. The existence of excitation bands with high luminescence efficiency at wavelengths shorter than 230 nm is characteristic of Na₂SO₄:RE³⁺ (RE³⁺=Sm³⁺, Tb³⁺, Dy³⁺ and Tm³⁺) phosphors. The obtained results suggest that these phosphors are unfavorable as the phosphor for usual fluorescence tubes, i.e., mercury discharge tubes, but may be favorable as the phosphor for UV-LED fluorescent tubes and as cathodoluminescence, X-ray luminescence and thermoluminescence phosphors.
