Photo-oxidation of ethane using carbon dioxide can mainly produce propanal, ethanol and acetaldehyde in the temperature range of 353-423 K.

The influence of the incorporation of Nb and a mesoporous silica on the physicochemical features of the catalysts is studied. The addition of Nb favors the formation of single-phase oxide bronze structure, with improved Lewis acidity;while the incorporation of KIT-6 gives rise to well-dispersed mixed metal oxide particles on the diluter. These diluted W-Nb-O catalysts present enhanced surface areas and mesopore volumes. The materials have been tested in the valorization of an aqueous model mixture (acetol/propanal/ethanol/acetic acid/water weight ratio of 5/25/10/30/30), through C-C bond formation reactions. The increase in the Lewis nature of surface acid sites stands as the key point to maximize the total organic yield during the reaction (C5-C10 products). The best catalysts maintain their catalytic behavior after five consecutive uses.展开更多

Quinolinic acid accumulation results in oxidative stress, which leads to neurotoxicity. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which quinolinic acid contributes to Huntington's disease pathology remain unknown. In this study, we established in vitro and in vivo models of Huntington's disease by administering quinolinic acid to the PC12 neuronal cell line and the striatum of mice, respectively. We observed a decrease in the levels of hydrogen sulfide in both PC12 cells and mouse serum, which was accompanied by down-regulation of cystathionine β-synthase, an enzyme responsible for hydrogen sulfide production. However, treatment with NaHS(a hydrogen sulfide donor) increased hydrogen sulfide levels in the neurons and in mouse serum, as well as cystathionine β-synthase expression in the neurons and the mouse striatum, while also improving oxidative imbalance and mitochondrial dysfunction in PC12 cells and the mouse striatum. These beneficial effects correlated with upregulation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 expression. Finally, treatment with the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2inhibitor ML385 reversed the beneficial impact of exogenous hydrogen sulfide on quinolinic acid-induced oxidative stress. Taken together, our findings show that hydrogen sulfide reduces oxidative stress in Huntington's disease by activating nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2,suggesting that hydrogen sulfide is a novel neuroprotective drug candidate for treating patients with Huntington's disease.展开更多

文摘Effectively controlling the selectivity of C_(2) oxygenates is desirable for electrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction.Copper catalyst has been considered as the most potential for reducing CO_(2) to C_(2) products,but it still suffers from low C_(2) selectivity,high overpotential,and competitive hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).Here,we propose a design strategy to introduce a second metal that weakly binds to H and a functional ligand that provides hydrogen bonds and protons to achieve high selectivity of C_(2)oxygenates and effective suppression of HER on the Cu(100)surface simultaneously.Seven metals and eleven ligands are screened using first-principles calculations,which shows that Sn is the most efficient for inhibiting HER and cysteamine(CYS)ligand is the most significant in reducing the limiting potential of^(*)CO hydrogenation to^(*)CHO.In the post C-C coupling steps,a so-called“pulling effect”that transfers H in the CYS ligand as a viable proton donor to the C_(2)intermediate to form an H bond,can further stabilize the OH group and facilitate the selection of C_(2)products toward oxygenates.Therefore,this heterogeneous electrocatalyst can effectively reduce CO_(2)to ethanol and ethylene glycol with an ultra-low limiting potential of-0.43 V.This study provides a new strategy for effectively improving the selectivity of C_(2)oxygenates and inhibiting HER to achieve advanced electrocatalytic CO_(2)reduction.
文摘In this investigation, a clean, atomic economic and direct synthesis of oxygenates (methanol, ethanol) form water and methane via dielectric-barrier discharge was developed at room temperature and under atmospheric pressure. The effect of discharge voltage on this process was studied. The results showed that the conversion of water can be as high as 7%, the selectivity of methanol and ethanol can be as high as 100%.
文摘Partial oxidation of methane to formaldehyde and methanol was studied at atmospheric pressure in the temperature range of 700-750 °C using heteropolycompound catalysts （NH4）6HSiMo11FeO40, （NH4）4PMo11FeO39, and H4PMo11VO40, which were prepared and characterized by various analysis techniques such as infrared, visible UV, XRD and DTA. O2 or N2O was used as the oxidizing agent, and the principal products of the reaction were CH3OH, CH2O, CO, CO2, and water. The conversion and the selectivity of products depend strongly on the reaction temperature, the nature of oxidizing agent, and the composition of catalyst.
文摘Photoinduced synthesis of CO2 and CH4 was investigated using a batch reaction system on several photoactive materials supported on silicon dioxide. Single semiconductor showed higher selectivity to C1 compounds. The production of C2-C3 oxygenates took place preferentially on composite semiconductor photocatalysts. In particular, it was found that acetone was the primary product over Cu / CdS –TiO2 / SiO2.

文摘This work reports the preparation of bulk and KIT-6-diluted W-Nb-O mixed oxide bronzes by a reflux method. The influence of the incorporation of Nb and a mesoporous silica on the physicochemical features of the catalysts is studied. The addition of Nb favors the formation of single-phase oxide bronze structure, with improved Lewis acidity;while the incorporation of KIT-6 gives rise to well-dispersed mixed metal oxide particles on the diluter. These diluted W-Nb-O catalysts present enhanced surface areas and mesopore volumes. The materials have been tested in the valorization of an aqueous model mixture (acetol/propanal/ethanol/acetic acid/water weight ratio of 5/25/10/30/30), through C-C bond formation reactions. The increase in the Lewis nature of surface acid sites stands as the key point to maximize the total organic yield during the reaction (C5-C10 products). The best catalysts maintain their catalytic behavior after five consecutive uses.
文摘The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of oxygenate additives into gasoline for the improvement of physicochemical properties of blends.Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether（MTBE）,Methanol,Tertiary butyl alcohol（TBA）,and Tertiary amyl alcohol（TAA） blend into unleaded gasoline with various blended rates of 2.5%,5%,7.5%,10%,15%,and 20%.Physicochemical properties of blends are analyzed by the standard American Society of Testing and Materials（ASTM） methods.Methanol,TBA,and TAA increase density of the mixtures,but MTBE decreases density.The addition of oxygenates lead to a distortion of the base gasoline＇s distillation curves.The Reid vapor pressure（RVP） of gasoline is found to increase with the addition of the oxygenated compounds.All oxygenates improve both motor and research octane numbers.Among these four additives,TBA shows the best fuel properties.
文摘EHMO calculations and orbital analyses of fragment;;have been performed for the formation of oxygenates in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on the butterfly model for four different metal (Ni,Ru,Rh,Pd) catalysts supported on SiO2.Calculations were made for the four processes,i.e.,CO-dissociation;Coupling of CO and H to produce CHO;Insertion of CO to M-CH3;insertion of CH2 to M-CH3 On the basis of comparing the degree of CO bonds activation and the energy barriers of the foregoing processes for these four catalysts,it is concluded that Ni/SiO2 can be used as the methanation catalyst.On Ru/SiO2 and Rh/SiO2 C2-oxygenated compound can be produced (acetaldehyde),especially Rh/SiO2 is the even better catalyst,and Pd/SiO2 is a methanol synthesis catalyst.

文摘The direct oxidation of methane(CH_(4))into high-valued C1 oxygenates production has garnered increased attention in effectively using vast CH_(4)and alleviating the global energy crisis.However,due to the high cleavage energy of C—H bond and low polarity of CH_(4)molecule,it is difficult to activate the first C—H bond.Furthermore,C1 oxygenates are readily inclined to be oxidized to CO_(2),because their weaker C—H bond comparing with CH_(4)molecule,resulting in poor selectivity.Herein,we designed ultrathin PdxAuy alloy NWs supported on ZSM-5(Z-5)to investigate the direct oxidation of CH_(4)to high value-added oxygenate under mild conditions.By precisely adjusting the molar ratio of Pd/Au and alloying degree,Pd9Au1NWs/Z-5 showed an excellent yield of 11.57 mmol·g^(–1)·h^(–1)and the outstanding selectivity of 95.1%for C1 oxygenates(CH_(3)OH,CH_(3)OOH and HCOOH).The in-situ spectroscopic and mechanism analysis proved that the enhanced catalytic performance of Pd_(9)Au_(1)NWs/Z-5 was ascribed to the stable one-dimensional nanostructure and the strong synergy effect with high alloying PdAu,which could increase the adsorption capacity of CH_(4)molecules on Pd atoms to promote the CH_(4)conversion.This work offers valuable insights into the design concept of high-efficient catalysts and the structure-activity relationship for the direct oxidation of CH_(4).

文摘Photocatalytic oxidation of methane to value-added chemicals is a promising process under mild conditions,nevertheless confronting great challenges in efficiently activating C-H bonds and inhibiting over-oxidation.Herein,we propose a comprehensive strategy for the selective generation of reactive oxygen species(ROS)by regulating the sizes and facets of Au nanoparticles loaded on ZnO.For photocatalytic methane oxidation at ambient temperature,a high oxygenates yield of 36.4 mmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1) with a nearly 100%selectivity has been achieved over the optimized 1.0%Au/ZnO-9.6(1%Au with(111)facet and 9.6 nm size on ZnO)photocatalyst,exceeding most reported literatures.Mechanism investigations reveal that 1.0%Au/ZnO-9.6 with the medium size and Au(111)facet guarantees the favourable formation of superoxide radicals(·OOH)through mild oxygen reduction,ultimately leading to excellent photocatalytic methane oxidation performance.This work provides some guidance for the delicate design of photocatalysts for efficient photocatalytic methane oxidation and oxygen utilization.

文摘The pathophysiology of Huntington's disease involves high levels of the neurotoxin quinolinic acid. Quinolinic acid accumulation results in oxidative stress, which leads to neurotoxicity. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which quinolinic acid contributes to Huntington's disease pathology remain unknown. In this study, we established in vitro and in vivo models of Huntington's disease by administering quinolinic acid to the PC12 neuronal cell line and the striatum of mice, respectively. We observed a decrease in the levels of hydrogen sulfide in both PC12 cells and mouse serum, which was accompanied by down-regulation of cystathionine β-synthase, an enzyme responsible for hydrogen sulfide production. However, treatment with NaHS(a hydrogen sulfide donor) increased hydrogen sulfide levels in the neurons and in mouse serum, as well as cystathionine β-synthase expression in the neurons and the mouse striatum, while also improving oxidative imbalance and mitochondrial dysfunction in PC12 cells and the mouse striatum. These beneficial effects correlated with upregulation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 expression. Finally, treatment with the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2inhibitor ML385 reversed the beneficial impact of exogenous hydrogen sulfide on quinolinic acid-induced oxidative stress. Taken together, our findings show that hydrogen sulfide reduces oxidative stress in Huntington's disease by activating nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2,suggesting that hydrogen sulfide is a novel neuroprotective drug candidate for treating patients with Huntington's disease.

文摘The rich resources and unique environment of the Moon make it an ideal location for human expansion and the utilization of extraterrestrial resources.Oxygen,crucial for supporting human life on the Moon,can be extracted from lunar regolith,which is highly rich in oxygen and contains polymetallic oxides.This oxygen and metal extraction can be achieved using existing metallurgical techniques.Furthermore,the ample reserves of water ice on the Moon offer another means for oxygen production.This paper offers a detailed overview of the leading technologies for achieving oxygen production on the Moon,drawing from an analysis of lunar resources and environmental conditions.It delves into the principles,processes,advantages,and drawbacks of water-ice electrolysis,two-step oxygen production from lunar regolith,and one-step oxygen production from lunar regolith.The two-step methods involve hydrogen reduction,carbothermal reduction,and hydrometallurgy,while the one-step methods encompass fluorination/chlorination,high-temperature decomposition,molten salt electrolysis,and molten regolith electrolysis(MOE).Following a thorough comparison of raw materials,equipment,technology,and economic viability,MOE is identified as the most promising approach for future in-situ oxygen production on the Moon.Considering the corrosion characteristics of molten lunar regolith at high temperatures,along with the Moon's low-gravity environment,the development of inexpensive and stable inert anodes and electrolysis devices that can easily collect oxygen is critical for promoting MOE technology on the Moon.This review significantly contributes to our understanding of in-situ oxygen production technologies on the Moon and supports upcoming lunar exploration initiatives.

文摘Cardiac arrest can lead to severe neurological impairment as a result of inflammation,mitochondrial dysfunction,and post-cardiopulmonary resuscitation neurological damage.Hypoxic preconditioning has been shown to improve migration and survival of bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells and reduce pyroptosis after cardiac arrest,but the specific mechanisms by which hypoxia-preconditioned bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells protect against brain injury after cardiac arrest are unknown.To this end,we established an in vitro co-culture model of bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells and oxygen–glucose deprived primary neurons and found that hypoxic preconditioning enhanced the protective effect of bone marrow stromal stem cells against neuronal pyroptosis,possibly through inhibition of the MAPK and nuclear factor κB pathways.Subsequently,we transplanted hypoxia-preconditioned bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells into the lateral ventricle after the return of spontaneous circulation in an 8-minute cardiac arrest rat model induced by asphyxia.The results showed that hypoxia-preconditioned bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells significantly reduced cardiac arrest–induced neuronal pyroptosis,oxidative stress,and mitochondrial damage,whereas knockdown of the liver isoform of phosphofructokinase in bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells inhibited these effects.To conclude,hypoxia-preconditioned bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells offer a promising therapeutic approach for neuronal injury following cardiac arrest,and their beneficial effects are potentially associated with increased expression of the liver isoform of phosphofructokinase following hypoxic preconditioning.
