The Reaction Activity of Aromatic Carbonyl Compounds with Diphenylphosphine Oxide Studied by 31P NMR

Abstract

A series of α-hydroxyphosphine oxides were prepared by the reactions of diphenylphosphine oxide and aromatic carbonyl compounds and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and HR-MS spectra. The reaction rates and experimental conditions of aromatic aldehydes and aromatic ketones were obviously different due to the activity of their carbonyls. The different substituents of the aromatic aldehydes affected the reaction rate too, and the quantitative reactivity of their substituent conformed to the Hammett equation. The results were confirmed by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Nitrogen Heterocyclic Derivatives Containing Sulfur–Ether and Schiff Base

Abstract

A series of new nitrogen heterocyclic compounds containing sulfur–ether (8a–8f) and Schiff-base (9a–9q) functionalities were synthesized by the reaction of the pharmaceutical lead compound containing both benzimidazole and 1,2,4-triazole rings. The compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, FT-IR, HR-MS, and ESI-MS.

通过赝反伽伐尼反应实现金纳米粒子模块替换

通过可控的方式精确调控纳米粒子的结构仍是一个富有挑战性和鼓舞人心的课题.尽管单原子或两、三个金属原子的精细调控已经在金纳米粒子中实现,涉及三个以上金属原子的取代（模块取代）还没有报道.本工作报道了环己硫醇配体保护的Au₄₈（CHT）₂₆的合成及其通过赝反伽伐尼过程的模块取代.单晶结构揭示模块取代的产物与母体团簇共用一个相似的Au₃₁（CHT）₁₂主体,但剩余部分不同（Au₆（CHT）₁₁ vs.Au₁₆（CHT）₁₄）.一个有趣的发现是模块取代抑制了Au₄₈（CHT）₂₆的光热过程,却增强了它的发射,赋予了所合成团簇更好的双（多）功能应用潜力.光热效应的减弱和发射的增强也暗示了这两种作用能够彼此至少部分转化,对于研究这两种效应之间的相互影响也具有重要的启示.     

Yb3+掺杂稀土钽铌酸盐的晶体场从头计算研究

Novel facile detection of persistent organic pollutants using highly sensitive gas sensor

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are greatly noxious chemicals in environment, and they can cumulate in organisms and transfer between different species. Therefore, it is significant to detect POPs for both environmental evaluation and further treatment. However, developing facile approach for the detection of POPs still remains a challenge so far. In this paper, we report an innovative method for facile detection of POPs using gas sensor for the first time. Porous SnO₂ nanostructures with a special tri-walled structure prepared via hydrothermal route and annealing process, were employed as gas-sensing materials. Through gas measurements, it was revealed that the as-fabricated gas sensor exhibited highly sensitive performance towards target POPs, including methoxychlor, mirex, p,p′-DDT, and aldrin. Moreover, we found that target POPs were distinguishable by extracting characteristics in kinetic curves of gas adsorption-desorption. As the presented detecting approach is facile without the requirements of complex operations, expensive and bulky instruments, it is expected that it would be developed as a promising method for the detection of POPs, and thereby showing its significance for environmental monitoring.

Modified wavelet based morphological correlation for rotation-invariant recognition

A wavelet-based rotation invariant morphological correlation (WBRIMC) is proposed as a new architecture to improve the properties of the classical rotation invariant morphological correlation (RIMC). For the WBRIMC, the JPS of the RIMC is filtered by an appropriately dilated power spectrum function of wavelet. Simulation results confirm that the WBRIMC has higher discrimination capability with sharp and intense correlation signals, and is more tolerant to the salt-and-pepper noise and white additive Gaussian noise than is the Circular harmonic filter (CHF), the phase only CHF (POCHF) and the RIMC.
