Regioselectivity Study on Propylene Polymerization Catalyzed by Neutral Salicyladiminato Pd（Ⅱ） Model Complex with DFT Method

Many attempts have been made to control the regioselectivity for olefin polymerization by varying the structures of ligands in catalysts. The regioselectivity of propylene polymerization was investigated by replacing a nitrogen atom in the Pd(Ⅱ) diimine catalyst with an oxygen atom from density functional theory method at the B3LYP/LANL2DZ level. The results show that the 1,2-insertion becomes a rival mechanism to the 2,1-insertion when the nitrogen atom is replaced by the oxygen atom leading to an asymmetric environment in the catalyst, and that the steric effect in the asymmetrical catalyst plays an important part in the polymerization. The insertion barrier from 2-O is much higher than that from 2-N. A pyramid transition state was characterized for the catalyst to convert 2-O back to 2-N through internal rotation. The propylene prefers to coordinate at the opposite side of O in the catalyst. This is the driving force for the internal rotation.The results are significant for isotactic and syndiotactic polymerization.     

Investigation of substituent effects in aerogen‐bonding interaction between ZO3 (Z=Kr,Xe) and nitrogen bases

The substituent effects in aerogen bond interactions between ZO₃ (Z = Kr, Xe) and different nitrogen bases are studied at the MP2/aug‐cc‐pVTZ level of theory. The nitrogen bases include the sp bases NCH, NCF, NCCl, NCBr, NCCN, NCOH, NCCH₃ and the sp³ bases NH₃, NH₂F, NH₂Cl, NH₂Br, NH₂CN, NH₂OH, and NH₂CH₃. The nature of aerogen bonds in these complexes is analyzed by means of molecular electrostatic potential, electron localization function, quantum theory atoms in molecules, noncovalent interaction index, and natural bond orbital analyses. The interaction energy (E_int) ranges from ?4.59 to ?9.65 kcal/mol in the O₃Z···NCX complexes and from ?5.30 to ?13.57 kcal/mol in the O₃Z···NH₂X ones. The dominant charge‐transfer interaction in these complexes occurs across the aerogen bond from the nitrogen lone‐pair (n_N) of the Lewis base to the σ*_Z‐O antibonding orbital of the ZO₃. Besides, the formation of aerogen bond tends to decrease the ⁸³Kr or ¹³¹Xe chemical shielding values in these complexes. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

A study of host-guest complexation between amodiaquine and native cyclodextrin. Characterization in solid state and its in-vitro anticancer activity

Amodiaquine (AQ) has been used widely as an antimalarial drug. Amodiaquine is a mannich base 4-amino quinolone with a mode of action similar to that of chloroquine. The inclusion complex of AQ with β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) in solution phase is studied from the ground and excited state with UV-Visible and fluorescence spectroscopy, respectively. A binding constant and stoichiometric ratio between AQ and β-CD are calculated by BH equation. The solid complexes are prepared by physical method (PM), kneading method (KM) and co-precipitation method (CP). The solid complex is characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. The CP method gives the solid product with a better yield than that of physical mixture and KM products. The orientation and structure of the complex are proposed based on the analysis of Patch-Dock server. The anticancer activity also performed for pure AQ and their complex with β-CD. It is clearly shown that an improvement of anticancer activity of AQ while forming complex with β-CD. The solid inclusion complex behaves as the better anticancer ability than AQ alone.     

Bucky Papers of Poly(Methyl Methacrylate-co-Methacrylic acid)/Polyamide 6 and Graphene Oxide-Montmorillonite

Novel poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic acid) (PMMAMA) and polyamide 6 (PA-6) blend was reinforced with graphene oxide (GO) and montmorillonite-modified GO (GO-MMT). In this way, two series of composites were prepared with varying GO and GO-MMT content. PA-6 was in situ polymerized and the effect of filler addition on molecular weight was studied using GPC. In the case of GO-MMT system, the lowering in molecular weight was more pronounced (M_n ～ 15 × 10³ gmol^?1). The thermal stability of PMMAMA/PA-6/GO-MMT 0.5–5 system was found higher than PMMAMA/PA-6/GO 0.5–5. PHHR of PMMAMA/PA-6/GO-MMT was decreased from 317 to 214 kW/m² with 0.5–5 wt% loading.     

Droplet Formation Study in Emulsification Process by KSM using a Novel In Situ Visualization System

The semi real-time observations of oil-in-water emulsification process in a Kenics static mixer were performed using a novel in situ visualization system. The homogenization processes and emulsion characteristics were analyzed using images taken periodically in fixed time intervals during the emulsification process. Morphological evolution of droplets was monitored and the mechanism of droplet formation was studied, both experimentally and theoretically. A wide range of dispersed phase concentration as well as surfactant concentration were used in the experiments and their impacts on emulsion characteristics were determined. Different droplet formation mechanisms occurred during the experimental results are presented. The relationship between droplet sizes, flow rate, surfactant concentration, and other impact factors was visually shown, and their role in controlling the emulsification process was revealed. The minimum droplet size obtained from the dispersed phase in emulsions was shown to be perfectly monitored and controlled by this technique.     

A Facile Method to Prepare Double‐Layer Isoporous Hollow Fiber Membrane by In Situ Hydrogen Bond Formation in the Spinning Line

A double‐layer hollow fiber is fabricated where an isoporous surface of polystyrene‐block‐poly(4‐vinylpyridine) is fixed on a support layer by co‐extrusion. Due to the sulfonation of the support layer material, delamination of the two layers is suppressed without increasing the number of subsequent processing steps for isoporous composite membrane formation. Electron microscope‐energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy images unveil the existence of a high sulfur concentration in the interfacial region by which in‐process H‐bond formation between the layers is evidenced. For the very first time, our study reports a facile method to fabricate a sturdy isoporous double‐layer hollow fiber.

     

钒氧化物电极材料晶格呼吸现象原位探测及其反应机制研究

作为锂离子电池正极材料,层状钒氧化物具有优异的物理特性和良好的储锂性能,因此被广泛研究与应用于工业生产与日常生活的各个方面.然而,在脱嵌锂的过程中,V₂O₅凝胶等层状钒氧化物的层状结构存在“晶格呼吸”现象.这种现象导致了电极材料的钝化,并进一步导致电池容量快速衰减.采用了原位X射线衍射（XRD）来研究一种层状钒氧化物（VO_x）在充放电过程中的“晶格呼吸”现象,揭示了其独特的相变过程.在充放电过程中,原位XRD对应的二维衍射图显示出三个不同的阶段,分别对应三个固溶反应.放电过程中,三个阶段的衍射峰都向高角度偏移,表明在锂离子嵌入过程中,VO_x的层间距存在持续收缩过程.（001）层间距大小随充放电过程的变化图进一步证明了这三个过程的不连续性.这些发现揭示了这类材料在电极反应过程中的晶体结构变化规律以及造成其容量衰减的原因.
