Poly(aryl ether ketone) composite membrane as a high‐performance lithium‐ion batteries separator

We described the design and synthesis of a modified poly(aryl ether ketone) bearing phenolphthalein and allyl groups (P‐PAEK) via nucleophilic polycondensation. A new kind of composite separator, crosslinked P‐PAEK/polyvinylidene fluoride (c‐P‐PAEK/PVDF) membrane was successfully prepared using phase separation, phase inversion method, and UV crosslinking technique. As a separator of lithium‐ion battery, c‐P‐PAEK/PVDF membrane demonstrates high porosity and uniform distribution of pores with interconnected pathways. Low thermal shrinkage, distinct shut‐down effect, high liquid electrolyte uptake capacity, and exciting liquid electrolyte wettability of the prepared c‐P‐PAEK/PVDF membrane have been revealed through comprehensive study. Moreover, the c‐P‐PAEK/PVDF membrane was applied to assemble a conventional Li/LiFePO₄ coin cell, which exhibited hopeful cell performance. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Hydrothermal synthesis, structure and quantum chemistry of transition metal complex supported by metal-oxo cluster [(Ni(phen)22 (ξ-Mo8O26)]

A nickel-1,10-phenanthroline complex supported on an octamolybdate, [(Ni(phen)_{2 2}(ξ-Mo₈O₂₆)], has been hydrothermally synthesized with MoO₃, H₂MoO₄, Ni(OAc)₂ 6H₃O and 1,10-phenathroline (1,10-phen) as raw materials. The crystals of the compound belong to monoclinic P2₁/n space group,a = 1.2952(2),b = 1.6659(10),c = 1.3956(12) nm, β =106.273(8)°,V = 2.8906(5) nm³,Z = 2. 5604 observable reflections (I >2σ(I)) were used for structure resolution and refinements to converge to finalR ₁ = 0.0414,wR ₂ = 0.0815. The result of structure determination shows that the compound contains octamolybdate possessing a novel structure type (named as ξ-isomer). The feature of ξ-[Mo₈O₂₆]^4- is that it is composed of Mo₆O₆ ring and two MoO₆ octahedral located at cap positions on opposite faces. The Mo₆O₆ ring contains two octahedral and four trigonal-bipyramidal Mo^VI atoms. Each ξ-[Mo₈O₂₆]^4- unit is bonded with two [Ni(phen)₂]²⁺ through terminal oxygen atoms of octahedral and neighbouring trigonal-bipyramidal Mo atom in the Mo₆O₆ ring. IR and UV-Vis spectra of the compound were measured and its electronic structure was studied by EHMO method.     

Light-enhanced catalysis by pyridoxal phosphate-dependent aspartate aminotransferase

The mechanisms of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes require substrates to form covalent "external aldimine" intermediates, which absorb light strongly between 410 and 430 nm. Aspartate aminotransferase (AAT) is a prototypical PLP-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible interconversion of aspartate and α-ketoglutarate with oxalacetate and glutamate. From kinetic isotope effects studies, it is known that deprotonation of the aspartate external aldimine C(α)-H bond to give a carbanionic quinonoid intermediate is partially rate limiting in the thermal AAT reaction. We show that excitation of the 430-nm external aldimine absorption band increases the steady-state catalytic activity of AAT, which is attributed to the photoenhancement of C(α)-H deprotonation on the basis of studies with Schiff bases in solution. Blue light (250 mW) illumination gives an observed 2.3-fold rate enhancement for WT AAT activity, a 530-fold enhancement for the inactive K258A mutant, and a 58600-fold enhancement for the PLP-Asp Schiff base in water. These different levels of enhancement correlate with the intrinsic reactivities of the C(α)-H bond in the different environments, with the less reactive Schiff bases exhibiting greater enhancement. Time-resolved spectroscopy, ranging from femtoseconds to minutes, was used to investigate the nature of the photoactivation of C(α)-H bond cleavage in PLP-amino acid Schiff bases both in water and bound to AAT. Unlike the thermal pathway, the photoactivation pathway involves a triplet state with a C(α)-H pK(a) that is estimated to be between 11 and 19 units lower than the ground state for the PLP-Val Schiff base in water.

Effects of solvent and counterion on ion pairing and observed charge states of diquaternary ammonium salts in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Two diquaternary ammonium chloride salts have been used to examine the roles of solvent and counterion in determination of the degree of ion pairing in solution and the resultant charge state distributions in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Three series of solvents, that is, alcohol, polar aprotic, and chlorinated solvents, have been employed to test the influence of solvent polarity and other parameters on the desorption behavior of diquaternary ammonium ions observed in ESI-MS. Solvents of higher polarity were found to yield gas-phase ions of higher charge states, in accordance with their reduced tendency toward ion pairing in solution. Counterion effects were investigated via the following approaches: (1) increase the diquaternary ammonium salt concentration; (2) increase the concentration of an external electrolyte that contained the common counterion Cl^?; (3) replace Cl^? with trifluoroacetate (TFA_c ^?); (4) increase the concentration of an external electrolyte that contained TFAc^?. These experiments indicate that variation of the specific counterion employed alters the degree of influence that the counterion exerts (via ion pairing) on electrospray ionization mass spectra. Increasing amounts of trifluoroacetate ions in a variety of solvent systems invariably led to a progressive shift of the observed ESI-MS charge states of diquaternary ammonium ions toward lower values.
