几个金属卤素簇的合成与性能研究

The hydrothermal reaction of CuBr2 and CuBr with phen·H2O （phen= 1,10-phenanthroline） in a molar ratio of 1：1：1.5 gave birth to the first copper-halo cationic cluster [Cu2^Ⅱ Cu2^Br4 （phen）4 ] ^2＋（1） with tetranuclear anionic cluster [Cu4Br6]^2-. Changing the precursors or their molar ratios, two mononuclear complexes [Cu（phen）2Br]Br·H2O （2） and [Ni（phen）3][CuCl2]2 （3） as well as two unusual copper-halo chains found in polymers [Cu2Br2（phen）]∞ （4） and [Cu^ⅡCu3^ⅠBr2Ⅰ3 （phen）2 ]∞ （5） were obtained. The （Cu2Br2）∞ chain of 4 looks like a linearar ray of hexagons based on fused Cu3Br3 units, and the linear （Cu3Ⅰ3Br^-）∞ chain of 5 is an alternate combination of the rhombic Cu2I2 cores and the Cu4I4Br2^2- units. In addition, the hydrothermal reaction of CuBr2 with NA（NA=nicotinic acid） or INA （INA =isonicotinic acid） resulted in the syntheses of two compounds [CuBr（NA）] （6） and [CuBr（INA）]∞（7） containing staircase chain. Among them the third-order non-linear optical properties of 2, 5, 6 and 7 were investigated and all exhibit the reverse saturable absorption （α2〉0） and self-defocusing performance （n2〈0）.     

Generation and reactions of substituted phenide anions in an electrospray triple quadrupole mass spectrometer

Substituted benzoic acid anions undergo decarboxylation in the medium-pressure region of an electrospray ion source yielding in most cases the correspondingly substituted phenide anions in high yield. The location of the anionic center is specified by the position of the carboxylic group. The only exceptions are compounds with substituents containing acidic hydrogen atoms, like OH and NH(2) groups. For such compounds, either an intra- or an intermolecular (mediated by the molecules of methanol or water) proton transfer from the more acidic position to the benzene ring is observed. The generated anions can be selected using the first quadrupole for studying their ion-molecule chemistry in the second quadrupole of a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. Their reactions with CO(2), O(2), CH(3)COCH(3) and CCl(4) may serve as typical examples. The general applicability of this method for the generation of phenide anions has been confirmed on three different mass spectrometers. Experiments performed using carboxylic acids other then benzoic acid and its derivatives show that this method is not limited to phenide anions and can be used for the generation of a much wider range of carbanions in the gas phase.     

Sunlight-activated AlFeO3/TiO2 photocatalyst

A nanocomposite photocatalyst composed of AlFeO₃ and TiO₂ is prepared, and characterized through X-ray diffraction. Application of the nanocomposite for the photodegradations of eosin dye and methyl orange gives an improved photoactivity compared with TiO₂-only nanomaterials. The optimal concentration of AlFeO₃ in the composite is about 1.0 wt% under UV excitation, and 9.0 wt% under sunlight excitation for the improved photoactivity. Furthermore, this nanocomposite is more active for eosin photodegradation if natural sunlight rather than UV is used. This may be due to the reason that adding AlFeO₃ nanoparticles into TiO₂ matrix can promote the separation of photogener-ated charge carriers, and extend the photoresponse of TiO₂ toward visible region, which results in an increase in the solar energy utilization efficiency.     

Studies on the synthesis of biphenylneolignans. Part 1: Enantioselective synthesis of (S,S)- and (R,R)-2,2′-dimethoxy-4-(3-hydroxy-1-propenyl)-4′-(1,2,3-trihydroxypropyl)diphenyl ether

Two erythro-isomers of 2,2′-dimethoxy-4-(3-hydroxy-1-propenyl)-4′-(1,2,3-trihydroxypropyl)diphenyl ether, (7′S, 8′S)-9 and (7′R, 8′R)-9, were synthesized in seven steps, in which an improved method for the synthesis of the key intermediate 3 was developed. The absolute configuration of the target molecules was also confirmed.     

Sarcophytolides G–L,New Biscembranoids from the Soft Coral Sarcophyton elegans

Six new biscembranoids, namely, sarcophytolides G–L ( 1 – 6 , resp.), together with six known analogs, were isolated from a marine soft coral Sarcophyton elegans. The structures of the new compounds were established on the basis of 1D‐ and 2D‐NMR (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY) spectroscopic analysis together with the aid of MS, CD, and IR data. The unusual isobiscembranoid sarcophytolide G ( 1 ) was found for the first time in the genus Sarcophyton.

Moment Complete Convergence for Weighted Sums of -Mixing Random Variables

In this paper, the authors discuss the moment complete convergence for weighted sums of -mixing random variables, and obtains the sufficient condition for moment complete convergence of -mixing sequence under some mixing rate condition, which generalize the result of moment complete convergence for weighted sums of i.i.d. random variables to -mixing random variables.     

Use of direct immersion solid-phase microextraction on polyacrylate and polydimethylsiloxane stationary phases for simultaneous determination of the neutral and basic pharmaceuticals in wastewater

Direct immersion solid-phase microextraction has been optimized and applied to the simultaneous determination of the neutral and basic pharmaceuticals: caffeine, carbamazepine, clomipramine, chlorprothixene and clotrimazole at low concentrations in municipal wastewater. Two absorption type stationary phases: polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polyacrylate (PA) have been found to be most effective for extraction of target analytes. The separation and detection were carried out by gas chromatograph coupled with mass spectrometer working in the selected ion monitoring mode. The method was validated for linearity, detection and quantitation limits, selectivity and precision. The average correlation coefficient of the calibration curves was 0.9933. The LOD values in influent and effluent wastewater were in the range of 10–145 ng L^?1 and 4–111 ng L^?1, respectively, which were a bit higher than those in the deionized water due to matrix effect. The high values of distribution coefficient (K _fs ) in PDMS/water and PA/water systems (log K _fs between 3.05 and 4.23) indicates the very high applicability of these stationary phases for determination of carbamazepine, clomipramine, chlorprothixene and clotrimazole in water samples.

Room-temperature ferromagnetism in pure ZnO nanoflowers

ZnO nanoflowers are synthesized by hydrothermal method. The morphology of ZnO is captured by SEM, TEM and HRTEM, which is composed of closely packed nanorods of about 100 nm in diameter and 1 μm in length. The ZFC/FC curves show superparamagnetic features. The abnormal increase in magnetization curves below 14 K comes from the isolated vacancy clusters with no interaction. The magnetic hysteresis at 300 K displays saturation state and confirms room-temperature ferromagnetism. While the magnetic hysteresis at 5 K shows nonsaturation state due to the enhanced effects of vacancy clusters. The O 1s XPS results can be fitted to three Gaussian peaks. The existence of medium-binding energy located at 531.16 eV confirms the deficiency of O ions at the surface of ZnO nanoflowers.
