Synthese von ungesättigten und gesättigten Aminosäurederivaten durch kathodische Reduktion von Azidozimtsäureester

Cathodic reduction of -azidocinnamic ester under aprotic conditions on Hg, Pt, or graphite electrodes can be directed to high yields of N,N-diacylated dehydroaminoacid derivates (f.i. addition of acetic anhydride) or to almost quantitative yields of -aminocinnamic ester in very pure form by careful addition of H⁺-donors. The dehydroamino compounds in turn can be further reduced to the corresponding saturated compounds by following H⁺-addition and changed electrolysis potential. Almost no dimerization occurs.

Pt3Co核-Pt壳型纳米粒子的制备及磁性

Pt₃Co alloy nanoparticles were prepared by the reduction of H₂PtCl₆ and Co(OOCCH₃)₂ using NaBH₄ as a reducing agent. The Pt₃Co core-Pt shell nanoparticles (Pt₃Co@Pt) were synthesized using hydrogen absorption reduction and characterized by plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and SQUID magnetometer. The results show that average size of Pt₃Co@Pt nanoparticles is 3.6 nm with a standard deviation of 0.9 nm. Heating Pt₃Co nanoparticles in air at 700 ℃ for 1 h, Co in Pt₃Co nanoparticles was oxidized to Co₃O₄ and CoO; while no oxidation tendency was detected for Pt₃Co@Pt nanoparticles. The crystallize structure of Pt₃Co@Pt changed from the face centered cube (fcc) to the face centered tetragonal (fct) after the heating treatment. The coercivity of the heated Pt₃Co@Pt reached to 276 Oe at room temperature.     

Chemical Reduction of CO2 to Different Products during Photo Catalytic Reaction on TiO2 under Diverse Conditions： an Overview

The chemical reduction of CO_2 remains a challenge with respect to the reversal of the oxidative degradation of any organic materials.The conversion of CO_2 into useful substances is essential in developing al- ternative fuels and various raw materials for different in- dustries.This also aids in preventing the continuous rise in tropospheric temperature due to the green house effect of CO_2.In this article an overview of the growth taken place so far in the field of CO_2 chemical reduction is pre- sented.The discussion comprises of photochemical meth- ods for the development of different products,viz.CO, CH_3O_H and CH_4,through chemical reduction of CO_2. This includes the use of photo catalysts,mainly TiO_2, and the role of a hole scavenger(such as 2-propanol)for this purpose.     

Comparison of reactivities of 1- and 4-oxotetrahydrocarbazoles in reactions with nucleophilic and electrophilic reagents

The half-wave potentials of polarographic reduction of the carbonyl group in unsubstituted and N-methyl- and N-phenylsulfonyl-substituted 1- and 4-oxotetrahydrocarbazoles and their reactivities in reactions with nucleophilic (NaBH₄, malonodinitrile, and cyanoacetamide) and electrophilic (DMF dimethyl acetal) reagents were compared. 4-Oxotetrahydrocarbazoles are much less reactive than 1-oxotetrahydrocarbazoles. __________ Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Strategy for obtaining improved surface-enhanced Raman scattering by combining electrochemical and plasmas technologies

In this work, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active gold substrates were first developed by combining the technologies of oxidation–reduction cycles (ORCs) and plasmas treatments in roughening metal substrates. First, a gold substrate was treated by argon plasmas. Then the treated gold substrate was further roughened by triangular-wave ORCs in an aqueous solution containing 0.1 M HCl. Encouragingly, the SERS of Rhodamine 6G (R6G) adsorbed on this roughened gold substrate modified by argon plasmas pretreatment exhibits a higher intensity by 10-fold of magnitude and a better resolution, as compared with the SERS of R6G adsorbed on an unmodified roughened gold substrate. Meanwhile, the probing concentration of R6G adsorbed on the modified substrate can be reduced by one order. It was also found that the pretreatment of argon plasmas demonstrates a positive effect on the (2 2 0) face of Au partly changing into the (1 1 1) face with the lowest surface energy after the ORCs roughening, which is contributive to the improved SERS observed.     

Reaction and mass transfer effects in a catalytic monolith reactor

Zeolite-based monoliths (Cu/ZSM-5 on cordierite) are prepared and used to catalyze direct decomposition of nitrogen monoxide. Two-dimensional heterogeneous model is applied to describe the behavior of the monolith reactor, with the emphasis on the features introduced due to coupling of flow, mass transfer and chemical reaction. The proposed model has been verified by comparing computer simulation data with laboratory experimental data. It is shown that both inter- and intraphase diffusion limitations have to be considered when modeling complex reactor configuration, such as monolith reactors, especially when monolith with thicker catalytic layer are used at higher temperatures.

The influence of the mercury and thallium atoms in organomercury and organothallium nitroxyl radicals on their reactivity

An increase is found in the reactivity of organomercury and organothallium nitroxyl mono- and biradicals of the imidazoline type in comparison with the analogous compounds without organometallic fragments. This is explained by the formation of coordination bonds NHg, NTl, and NOHg.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 224–226, January, 1993.
