Electro-assisted Molecular Assembly Giving Atomic-Scale Catalytic Active-Site Detection

The artificially accurate design of nonmetal electrocatalysts’ active site has been a huge challenge because no pure active species with the specific structure could be strictly controlled by traditional synthetic methods. Species with a multiconfiguration in the catalyst hinder identification of the active site and the subsequent comprehension of the reaction mechanism. We have developed a novel electro-assisted molecular assembly strategy to obtain a pure pentagon ring on perfect graphene avoiding other reconstructed structures. More importantly, the active atom was confirmed by the subtle passivation process as the topmost carbon atom. Recognition of the carbon-defect electrocatalysis reaction mechanism was first downsized to the single-atom scale from the experimental perspective. It is expected that this innovative electro-assisted molecular assembly strategy could be extensively applied in the active structure-controlled synthesis of nonmetal electrocatalysts and verification of the exact active atom.     

Ultrahigh Loading Copper Single Atom Catalyst for Palladium-free Wacker Oxidation

Wacker oxidation is an industry-adopted process to transform olefins into value-added epoxides and carbonyls. However, traditional Wacker oxidation involves the use of homogeneous palladium and copper catalysts for the olefin addition and reductive elimination. Here, we demonstrated an ultrahigh loading Cu single atom catalyst(14% Cu, mass fraction) for the palladium-free Wacker oxidation of 4-vinylanisole into the corresponding ketone with N-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride as an additive under mild conditions. Mechanistic studies by ¹⁸O and deuterium isotope labelling revealed a hydrogen shift mechanism in this palladium-free process using N-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride as the oxygen source. The reaction scope can be further extended to Kucherov oxidation. Our study paves the way to replace noble metal catalysts in the traditional homogeneous processes with single atom catalysts.     

基于MD-LBP关联方向特征的铁路隧道漏缆卡扣检测算法

全路段跟车拍摄隧道漏缆卡扣图像再进行逐张排查,是实现卡扣故障检测的重要手段.针对目前LBP、CS-LBP等相关变体算法存在描述子质量不佳、特征维度过高的问题,提出MD-LBP关联方向特征提取算法实现故障卡扣的检测工作.该算法首先对输入图像进行高斯滤波预处理,根据图像的全局灰度均值得到图像的自适应阈值;其次计算图像的三层MD-LBP特征图结构,依次经过两次下采样分别得到Cell主方向特征和Block主方向特征;然后再在Block特征图上提取关联方向特征,并以此作为描述子;最后通过SVM区分故障卡扣,完成检测工作.实验还对比了LBP、H OG等9种特征描述子的检测情况,结果表明该算法不仅特征维度低,并且检测故障卡扣的召回率和精准度都达到了85％.

Nickel/Photoredox-Catalyzed Asymmetric Reductive Cross-Coupling of Racemic α-Chloro Esters with Aryl Iodides

A unique nickel/organic photoredox co-catalyzed asymmetric reductive cross-coupling between α-chloro esters and aryl iodides is developed. This cross-electrophile coupling reaction employs an organic reductant (Hantzsch ester), whereas most reductive cross-coupling reactions use stoichiometric metals. A diverse array of valuable α-aryl esters is formed under these conditions with high enantioselectivities (up to 94 %) and good yields (up to 88 %). α-Aryl esters represent an important family of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This novel synergistic strategy expands the scope of Ni-catalyzed reductive asymmetric cross-coupling reactions.     

钩形弯交叉口信号协同控制优化方法研究

针对车辆在钩形弯交叉口与相邻常规交叉口间的整体运行特性，建立了各条车道的车辆平均延误计算模型。以各交叉口的周期时长和相位绿灯时间为约束，钩形弯交叉口与相邻常规交叉口间的车辆平均延误最小为目标，建立了信号协同配时方案。以位于苏州市高新区内有轨电车沿线的两个相邻交叉口为例，采用实际数据验证所建立的方法，并设置钩形弯渠化方案。将设置的钩形弯交叉口与其相邻常规交叉口的信号协同作为改进方法，在VISSIM软件中对比分析改进方案与现状方案的车辆延误指标。实验结果表明，钩形弯交叉口与相邻常规交叉口的信号协同优化方法可有效提高交叉口的通行能力，尤其是干道直行机动车的通行能力，可降低车辆的平均延误。

零维到三维结构中三核铜自旋阻挫簇单元的磁构关系和反对称交换

量子自旋液体是最近几年刚被人们证实除铁磁体、反铁磁体之外的第三种磁性类型,因其有望解释高温超导的运行机制、改变计算机硬盘信息存储方式而在物理、材料等领域备受关注。自旋阻挫作为量子自旋液体的最小单元可能是解开量子自旋液体诸多问题的钥匙,所以在磁学、电学研究领域再一次成为人们研究的热点。基于文献报道的三核铜配合物[Cu3(μ3-OH)(μ-OPz)3(NO3)2(H2O)2]·CH3OH(1),我们合成了三维金属有机框架配合物{[Ag(HOPz)Cu3(μ3-OH)(NO3)3(OPz)2Ag(NO3)]·6H2O}n(2)(HOPz=甲基(2-吡嗪基)酮肟),并从自旋阻挫的角度对二者磁性质进行对比和详细分析。磁化率数据表明自旋间有很强的反铁磁相互作用和反对称交换。通过包含各向同性和反对称交换的哈密顿算符对两者磁学数据进行拟合并研究其磁构关系,所获最佳拟合参数为:配合物1:Jav=-426 cm^-1,g⊥=1.83,g∥=2.00;配合物2:Jav=-401 cm^-1,g⊥=1.85,g∥=2.00。
