Skeletal Isomerization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-butenes over Solid Acid Catalysts

Conversion reactions of n-butenes over zeolites and amorphous catalysts have been investigated to deduce the factor that determines the selectivity for the skeletal isomerization producing isobutene. The effects of pore structure and acid site concentration on the selectivity for the skeletal isomerization are discussed on various catalysts. The pore structures of FER and CLI zeolites induce the distant locations of butene molecules, accelerating monomolecular skeletal isomerization. On the other hand, acid site concentration determines the preferred reaction path of n-butenes on amorphous catalysts. Oligomerization followed by cracking that produces various hydrocarbons is suppressed on the catalyst with low acid site concentration, resulting in high selectivity for isobutene. The feasibility of monomolecular skeletal isomerization on zeolites and amorphous catalysts is confirmed by its reversibility with high selectivity.     

单斜层状LiMnO2的球磨-离子交换法合成及其电化学性能研究

通过球磨促进固相反应法合成出了具有单斜层状结构的前驱物NaMnO₂，随后通过离子交换得到了单斜层状LiMnO₂。XRD测试结果显示产物为单相。扫描电镜(SEM)和透射电镜(TEM)观测结果显示LiMnO₂的粒子尺寸为300～500 nm，HRTEM分析显示干扰条纹的间距为0.485 nm，基本对应于m-LiMnO₂的(001)晶面间距。红外吸收光谱(IR)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)被用来测量m-LiMnO₂中Mn-O键的伸缩和弯曲振动吸收和Mn元素的价态。合成的m-LiMnO₂在电化学充放电循环初期表现了较好的电化学性能，但其循环寿命仍需要进一步改善。     

双核配合物[Cu2(TS)(H2O)]·CH3OH的自组装制备和晶体结构

The binuclear complex [Cu₂(TS)(H₂O)]·CH₃OH, where TS denotes the binucleating ligand derived from the schiff base N,N′-bis(3-carboxylsalidene)trimethylenediamine, was obtained from the self-decomposition of mononuclear complex Na₂CuTS·H₂O. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c. The lattice parameters are a=11.935(2)?,b=15.667(3)?,c=11.621(2)?,β=111.60(3)°,V=2020.2(7)?³, Z=4 with R=0.0467. The structure is made of binuclear units, in which two copper atoms are bridged by two phenolic oxygen atoms. The “inside”copper atom is coordinated by two nitrogens, two phenolic oxygens in a planar coordi-nation site, the copper atom deviates from the mean plane by 0.47?. The “outside” copper atom is five coordinated by two phenolic oxygen atoms、two equatorial carboxyl oxygen atoms and one axial water oxygen atom in a distorted tetragonal cone site, the copper atom is pulled out of the equatorial plane by 0.46?.     

Unveiling the elusive role of tetraethyl orthosilicate hydrolysis in ionic-liquid-templated zeolite synthesis

Despite previous reports showing that crystallization kinetics affects zeolite phase selectivity because zeolites are metastable species in their synthesis solution rather than thermodynamic end points, the critical kinetics-controlling parameter is yet to be determined. This work elucidated the effect of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) hydrolysis before hydrothermal treatment on the final zeolite phase selectivity in the ionic liquid-templated synthesis of 10-membered ring zeolites (MFI- or TON-type zeolites). The results showed that the dissolved silica concentration in the synthesis solution, which is controlled by varying the TEOS hydrolysis temperature and addition rate, induced heterogeneous nuclear growth. Specifically, in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium ([BMIM]Br)-directed syntheses, the high and low concentrations of dissolved silica species led to MFI and TON zeolite formation, respectively. The experimental results are supported by silica polymerization modeling using the Reaction Ensemble Monte Carlo method and theoretical calculations on composite building unit formation. The results are valuable for understanding the nucleation mechanism in zeolite crystallization.
