Anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Racemic Allylic Alcohols to Access Chiral γ-Amino Alcohols

A ruthenium-catalyzed formal anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of allylic alcohols for the synthesis of chiral γ-amino alcohols is presented. Proceeding via an asymmetric hydrogen-borrowing process, the catalysis allows racemic secondary allylic alcohols to react with various amines, affording enantiomerically enriched chiral γ-amino alcohols with broad substrate scope and excellent enantioselectivities (68 examples, up to >99 % ee).

Mesoscopic Modeling of Capillarity-Induced Two-Phase Transport in a Microfluidic Porous Structure

Mesoscopic modeling at the pore scale offers great promise in exploring the underlying structure transport performance of flow through porous media. The present work studies the fluid flow subjected to capillarity-induced resonance in porous media characterized by different porous structure and wettability. The effects of porosity and wettability on the displacement behavior of the fluid flow through porous media are discussed. The results are presented in the form of temporal evolution of percentage saturation and displacement of the fluid front through porous media. The present study reveals that the vibration in the form of acoustic excitation could be significant in the mobilization of fluid through the porous media. The dependence of displacement of the fluid on physicochemical parameters like wettability of the surface, frequency along with the porosity is analyzed. It was observed that the mean displacement of the fluid is more in the case of invading fluid with wetting phase where the driving force strength is not so dominant.     

Three-term polynomial progressions in subsets of finite fields

We prove that the group of diffeomorphisms of the interval [0, 1] contains surface groups whose action on (0, 1) has no global fix point and such that only countably many points of the interval (0, 1) have non-trivial stabiliser.     

锂电池异常状态监测的FEKF方法研究

为了保障锂离子电池的使用安全，提出了基于带渐消因子的扩展卡尔曼滤波 （Fading Extended Kalman Filter，FEKF）的电池状态在线监测方法. 建立锂电池一阶等效电路模型，利用递推最小二乘法进行锂电池状态参数在线辨识，建立状态方程；引入最优渐消因子，构造FEKF，得到端电压残差；使用端电压残差序列构造χ2分布的诊断函数，计算误检率与状态参数异常阈值. 实验结果显示利用FEKF生成的残差能更早对异常状态进行告警，证明FEKF能够显著提高χ2检验对锂电池内部缓变型异常状态判断的准确率.
