High-throughput purification of combinatorial libraries I: a high-throughput purification system using an accelerated retention window approach

We have developed a high-throughput purification system to purify combinatorial libraries at a 50-100-mg scale with a throughput of 250 samples/instrument/day. We applied an accelerated retention window method to shorten the purification time and targeted one fraction per injection to simplify data tracking, lower QC workload, and simplify the postpurification processing. First, we determined the accurate retention time and peak height for all compounds using an eight-channel parallel LC/UV/MS system, and calculated the specific preparative HPLC conditions for individual compounds. The preparative HPLC conditions include the compound-specific gradient segment for individual compounds with a fixed gradient slope and the compound-specific UV or ELSD threshold for triggering a fraction collection device. A unique solvent composition or solvent strength was programmed for each compound in the preparative HPLC in order to elute all compounds at the same target time. Considering the possible deviation of the predicted retention time, a 1-min window around the target time was set to collect peaks above a threshold based on UV or ELSD detection. Dual column preparative instruments were used to maximize throughput. We have purified more than 500 000 druglike compounds using this system in the past 3 years. We report various components of this high-throughput purification system and some of our purification results.

Phase transition in Pd40Ni10Cu30P20 bulk metallic glass under HP & HT

The phase transitions in Pd40Ni10Cu30P20 bulk metallic glass (BMG) have been studied under high pressure and high temperature (HP & HT) by X-ray diffraction measurements with synchrotron radiation source. We found that the BMG underwent a phase transitions of amorphous-crystalline-amorphous at 10 GPa upon heating. The parallel experiments were carried out at 7 GPa, while we did not observe the amorphous-crystalline-amorphous transitions by increasing temperature. Quenching the melted BMG at 7 GPa, it was found that the phase crystallized from the melt differed from the primary phase crystallized from the starting amorphous solid upon heating, suggesting there existed a distinct mechanism in two cases.     

Optical properties of methane to 288 GPa at 300 K

Optical properties of solid methane (CH₄) were studied at high pressure and room temperature using a diamond anvil cell. Reflectivity and transmission measurements were used to measure the refractive index to 288 GPa. Fabry-Perot interferometery was used to measure the sample thickness to 172 GPa. This data was fitted to the derived expression of thickness vs. pressure that was then used to calculate the thickness to 288 GPa. This in turn was combined with optical absorption experiments to obtain the absorption coefficient and hence the extinction coefficient k^*. From combined reflection and absorption experiments the refractive index n=n_s+ik^* was obtained. The index of refraction and the ratio of molar refraction to molar volume showed a large increase between 208 and 288 GPa. This behavior indicated that a phase transformation of insulator-semiconductor might have occurred in solid CH₄ by 288 GPa.

Simultaneous co-Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction and Ethanol Oxidation towards Synergistic Acetaldehyde Synthesis

Photocatalytic conversion of CO₂ is of great interest but it often suffers sluggish oxidation half reaction and undesired by-products. Here, we report for the first the simultaneous co-photocatalytic CO₂ reduction and ethanol oxidation towards one identical value-added CH₃CHO product on a rubidium and potassium co-modified carbon nitride (CN-KRb). The CN-KRb offers a record photocatalytic activity of 1212.3 μmol h⁻¹g⁻¹ with a high selectivity of 93.3 % for CH₃CHO production, outperforming all the state-of-art CO₂ photocatalysts. It is disclosed that the introduced Rb boosts the *OHCCHO fromation and facilitates the CH₃CHO desorption, while K promotes ethanol adsorption and activation. Moreover, the H⁺ stemming from ethanol oxidation is confirmed to participate in the CO₂ reduction process, endowing near ideal overall atomic economy. This work provides a new strategy for effective use of the photoexcited electron and hole for high selective and sustainable conversion of CO₂ paired with oxidation reaction into identical product.     

Non-metallic catalysts for diamond synthesis under high pressure and high temperature

Recent results on conversion from graphite to diamond by aid of non-metallic catalysts are reviewed. The current status of experimental advances is presented and typical examples from relevant literature are provided for understanding the mechanism of the graphite-diamond conversion by aid of these non-metallic catalysts. Furthermore, a tendency of graphite-diamond transformation assisted by carbonates, sulfates or phosphorus under high pressure and high temperature has been investigated by calculating the activation energy and transformation probability of the carbon atoms over a potential barrier. It was found that the activation energy is highly sensitive to the catalyst chosen. The probability sequence of graphite-diamond transformation with these catalysts was put forward.
