Six‐ and Eightfold Palladium‐Catalyzed Cross‐Coupling Reactions of Hexa‐ and Octabromoarenes

Palladium‐catalyzed sixfold coupling of hexabromobenzene ( 20 ) with a variety of alkenylboronates and alkenylstannanes provided hexaalkenylbenzenes 1 in up to 73 % and 16 to 41 % yields, respectively. In some cases pentaalkenylbenzenes 21 were isolated as the main products (up to 75 %). Some functionally substituted hexaalkenylbenzene derivatives containing oxygen or sulfur atoms in each of their six arms have also been prepared (16 to 24 % yield). The sixfold coupling of the less sterically encumbered 2,3,6,7,10,11‐hexabromotriphenylene ( 24 ) gave the desired hexakis(3,3‐dimethyl‐1‐butenyl)triphenylene ( 25 ) in 93 % yield. The first successful cross‐coupling reaction of octabromonaphthalene ( 26 ) gave octakis‐(3,3‐dimethyl‐1‐butenyl)naphthalene ( 27 ) in 21 % yield. Crystal structure analyses disclose that, depending on the nature of the substituents, the six arms are positioned either all on the same side of the central benzene ring as in 1 a and 1 i , making them nicely cup‐shaped molecules, or alternatingly above and below the central plane as in 1 h and 23 . In 27 , the four arms at C‐1,4,6,7 are down, while the others are up, or vice versa. Upon catalytic hydrogenation, 1 a yielded 89 % of hexakis(tert‐butylethyl)benzene ( 23 ). Some efficient accesses to alkynes with sterically demanding substituents are also described. Elimination of phosphoric acid from the enol phosphate derived from the corresponding methyl ketones gave 1‐ethynyladamantane ( 3 b , 62 % yield), 1‐ethynyl‐1‐methylcyclohexane ( 3 c , 85 %) and 3,3‐dimethylpentyne ( 3 e , 65 %). 1‐(Trimethylsilyl)ethynylcyclopropane ( 7 ) was used to prepare 1‐ethynyl‐1‐methylcyclopropane ( 3 d ) (two steps, 64 % overall yield). The functionally substituted alkynes 3 f – h were synthesized in multistep sequences starting from the propargyl chloride 11 , which was prepared in high yields from the dimethylpropargyl alcohol 10 (94 %). The alkenylstannanes 19 were prepared by hydrostannation of the corresponding alkynes in moderate to high yields (42–97 %), and the alkenylboronates 2 and 4 by hydroboration with catecholborane (27–96 % yield) or pinacolborane (26–69 % yield).     

Glucose utilization by lysine-producing fluoroacetate-sensitive mutants ofCorynebacterium glutamicum

A fluoroacetate-sensitive mutant was isolated fromCorynebacterium glutamicum, ATCC 21513, following mutagenesis with NTG. Batch fermentations show that in terms of growth kinetics, glucose utilization, and lysine formation, there are significant differences between the mutant and the parent. The mutant’s specific growth rate (0.22/h) is lower than that for the parent (0.34/h). Also, the yield expressed as lysine/glucose consumed does not alter as a function of the glucose concentration for the mutant, and is about 0.22, whereas for the parent, this coefficient decreases with increasing glucose concentration. The maximum specific rate of lysine production for the mutant is 1.3 g/L/h that is about two-fold higher than that for the parent.

Facile Synthesis and Palladium‐Catalyzed Cross‐Coupling Reactions of 2,3‐Bis(pinacolatoboryl)‐1,3‐butadiene

Treatment of 1,1‐bis(pinacolatoboryl)ethene with an excess of 1‐bromo‐1‐lithioethene gave 2,3‐bis(pinacolatoboryl)‐1,3‐butadiene in high yield. Palladium‐catalyzed cross‐coupling of the resulting diborylbutadiene with aryl iodides took place smoothly in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)₂/PPh₃ and aqueous KOH to give 2,3‐diaryl‐1,3‐butadienes in good yields. The coupling reaction with commercially available 4‐acetoxyphenylmethyl chloride under the same conditions followed by hydrolysis of the acetyl groups gave anolignan B in a one‐pot manner. A variety of [3]‐ to [6]dendralenes were synthesized by palladium‐catalyzed coupling of the diene or 1,1‐bis(pinacolato)borylethene with alkenyl or dienyl halides, respectively, in good yields.

Online Tracking of Maneuvering Target Trajectory Based on Chaotic Time Series Prediction

Online prediction of maneuvering target trajectory is one of the most popular research directions at present. Specifically, the primary factors balancing, between prediction accuracy and response time, will give the research substance. This paper presents an online trajectory prediction algorithm based on small sample chaotic time series (OTP-SSCT). First, we optimize in terms of data breadth. The dynamic split window is built according to the motion characteristics of the maneuvering target, thus realizing trajectory segmentation and constructing a small sample chaotic time series prediction set. Second, since fully considering the motion patterns of maneuvering targets, we introduce the spatiotemporal features into the particle swarm optimization (PSO) model identification algorithm, which improves the identification sensitivity of key trajectory data points. Furthermore, we propose a feedback optimization strategy of residual compensation to correct the trajectory prediction values to improve the prediction accuracy. For the initial value sensitivity problem of the PSO model identification algorithm, we propose a new initial population strategy, which improves the effectiveness of initial parameters on model identification. Through simulation experiment analysis, it is verified that the proposed OTP-SSCT algorithm achieves better prediction accuracy and faster response time.     

Milk-Compositional Study of Metabolites and Pathogens in the Milk of Bovine Animals Affected with Subclinical Mastitis

Bovine milk is an important food component in the human diet due to its nutrient-rich metabolites. However, bovine subclinical mastitis alters the composition and quality of milk. In present study, California mastitis testing, somatic cell count, pH, and electrical conductivity were used as confirmatory tests to detect subclinical mastitis. The primary goal was to study metabolome and identify major pathogens in cows with subclinical mastitis. In this study, 29 metabolites were detected in milk using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Volatile acidic compounds, such as hexanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid, lauric acid, octanoic acid, n-decanoic acid, tricosanoic acid, tetradecanoic acid, and hypogeic acid were found in milk samples, and these impart good flavor to the milk. Metaboanalyst tool was used for metabolic pathway analysis and principal component estimation. In this study, EC and pH values in milk were significantly increased (p < 0.0001), whereas fat (p < 0.04) and protein (p < 0.0002) significantly decreased in animals with subclinical mastitis in comparison to healthy animals. Staphylococcus aureus was the predominant pathogen found (n = 54), followed by Escherichia coli (n = 30). Furthermore, antibiotic sensitivity revealed that Staphylococcus aureus was more sensitive to gentamicin (79.6%), whereas Escherichia coli showed more sensitivity to doxycycline hydrochloride (80%).     

A Bregman-Split-Based Compressive Sensing Method for Dynamic Harmonic Estimation

In order to overcome the spectral interference of the conventional Fourier transform in the International Electrotechnical Commission framework, this paper introduces a Bregman-split-based compressive sensing (BSCS) method to estimate the Taylor–Fourier coefficients in a multi-frequency dynamic phasor model. Considering the DDC component estimation, this paper transforms the phasor problem into a compressive sensing model based on the regularity and sparsity of the dynamic harmonic signal distribution. It then derives an optimized hybrid regularization algorithm with the Bregman split method to reconstruct the dynamic phasor estimation. The accuracy of the model was verified by using the cross entropy to measure the distribution differences of values. Composite tests derived from the dynamic phasor test conditions were then used to verify the potentialities of the BSCS method. Simulation results show that the algorithm can alleviate the impact of dynamic signals on phasor estimation and significantly improve the estimation accuracy, which provides a theoretical basis for P-class phasor measurement units (PMUs).     

燃料敏感性对内燃机部分预混燃烧(PPC)光谱特性的影响研究

在一台光学发动机上,利用火焰高速成像技术和自发光光谱分析法,研究了燃料敏感性(S)为0和6时对发动机缸内火焰发展和燃烧发光光谱的影响。试验过程中,通过改变喷油时刻(SOI=-25,-15和-5°CA ATDC)使燃烧模式从部分预混燃烧过渡到传统柴油燃烧模式。通过使用正庚烷、异辛烷、乙醇混合燃料来改变燃料敏感性。结果表明,在PPC模式下(-25°CA ATDC),火焰发展过程是从近壁面区域开始着火,而后向燃烧室中心发展,即存在类似火焰传播过程,同时在燃烧室下部未燃区域也形成新的着火自燃点。敏感性对燃烧相位影响较大,对缸内燃烧火焰发展历程影响较小;高敏感性燃料OH和CH带状光谱出现的时刻推迟,表明高敏感性燃料高温反应过程推迟,且光谱强度更低,表明碳烟辐射强度减弱。在PPC到CDC之间的过渡区域(-15°CA ATDC),燃烧火焰发光更亮,燃烧反应速率比-25°CA ATDC时刻的反应速率更快。高、低敏感性燃料对缸压放热率的影响规律与-25°CA ATDC相近,此时的燃烧反应更剧烈,放热率更高,碳烟出现时刻更早。该喷油时刻下的光谱强度高于PPC模式下的光谱强度,说明此时的CO氧化反应与碳烟辐...
