It exhibited separation abilities to disubstituted benzene isomers and some chiral solutes. It was also found that the polarity of CD derivatives can be lowered both by chemically bonding it to polysiloxane and by diluting it in polysiloxane. The separation abilities of the polysiloxane anchored CDs (SP CD) are higher than that of the unbonded CDs (S CD) and the diluted S CD at lower column temperature. Hydrosilylation reaction is one of the best methods to lower the operating temperature of CDs.展开更多

A series of different β- cyclodextrin （β-CD） derivatives were incorporated into CS nanoparticles including hydroxypropyl-β- cyclodextrin （HP-β-CD）, sulphobutylether-β-cyclodextrin （SB-β-CD）, and 2,6-di-O-methy-βcyclodex- trin （DM-β-CD）. Various process parameters for nanoparticle preparation and their effects on physicochemical properties of CD/CS nanoparticles were investigated, such as the type of CD derivatives, CD and CS concentrations, the mass ratio of CS to TPP （CS/TRP）, and pH values. In the optimal condition, CDICS nanoparticles were obtained in the size range of 215-276 nm and with the zeta potential from 30.22 mV to 35.79 mY. Moreover, the stability study showed that the incorporation of CD rendered the CD/CS nanocarriers more stable than CS nanoparticles in PBS buffer at pH 6.8. For their easy preparation and adjustable parameters in nanoparticle formation as well as the diversified hydrophobic core of CD derivatives, the novel CD/CS nanoparticles developed herein might represent an interesting and versatile drug delivery platform for a variety of poorly water-soluble drugs with different physicochemical properties.展开更多

All the methods increased the solubility and dissolution rate of norfloxacin via inclusion complexation with βCD and HPβCD. Norfloxacin was converted from crystalline to amorphous form through inclusion complexation. Solvent evaporation method was the most effective method in terms of norfloxacin solubilisation, while inclusion complex of HPβCD has higher solubility than βCD complex when prepared using the same procedure.展开更多

To gain an insight into the mechanism of this remarkable regioselective behavior, two corresponding permethylated β-CDs with an alcohol function at either 2- or 3-position were synthesized in our previous study. As a step further to this work, the two compounds were subjected to deoxygenation reaction with tributyltin hydride in the present of 2,2＇- azobisisobutyronitrile affording the corresponding 2- and 3-deoxy permethylated β-CD derivatives （19 and 16）. The structures of these two compounds were characterized by 1D and 2D NMR and HRMS. Compounds 16 and 19 were unable to react with DIBAL- H which suggests that O-2A and O-3B are necessary for DIBAL-H promoted bis-de-O-methylation reaction of permethylated β-CD.展开更多

文摘This paper introduces a novel fractional-order model based on the Caputo-Fabrizio(CF)derivative for analyzing computer virus propagation in networked environments.The model partitions the computer population into four compartments:susceptible,latently infected,breaking-out,and antivirus-capable systems.By employing the CF derivative—which uses a nonsingular exponential kernel—the framework effectively captures memory-dependent and nonlocal characteristics intrinsic to cyber systems,aspects inadequately represented by traditional integer-order models.Under Lipschitz continuity and boundedness assumptions,the existence and uniqueness of solutions are rigorously established via fixed-point theory.We develop a tailored two-step Adams-Bashforth numerical scheme for the CF framework and prove its second-order accuracy.Extensive numerical simulations across various fractional orders reveal that memory effects significantly influence virus transmission and control dynamics;smaller fractional orders produce more pronounced memory effects,delaying both infection spread and antivirus activation.Further theoretical analysis,including Hyers-Ulam stability and sensitivity assessments,reinforces the model’s robustness and identifies key parameters governing virus dynamics.The study also extends the framework to incorporate stochastic effects through a stochastic CF formulation.These results underscore fractional-order modeling as a powerful analytical tool for developing robust and effective cybersecurity strategies.

文摘Organocatalyzed atom transfer radical polymerization(O-ATRP)is a pivotal technique for the synthesis of polymers with well-defined structures that are devoid of metallic residues.A major challenge in this area is the reduction of catalyst loading while maintaining precise control over polymer architecture and properties.Herein,we systematically evaluate the efficacy of six pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline(pyzPhen)-based photoredox catalysts in photoinduced O-ATRP.Experimental results indicate that the introduction of various substituents markedly influences the photophysical properties and redox behavior of the catalysts,thereby resulting in differing catalytic efficiencies in the O-ATRP of methyl methacrylate(MMA).Following additional optimization,two highly efficient O-ATRP photocatalysts capable of exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)were successfully identified.Under visible light irradiation,TADF catalysts effectively mediated the controlled polymerization of MMA at a low loading level of 50 ppm,particularly when used in conjunction with the initiator DBMM.The catalytic systems demonstrate excellent temporal control,broad monomer applicability,and favorable compatibility with various initiators and solvent systems.This work offers new insights into the development of efficient,low-catalyst-loading,metal-free ATRP systems.
文摘A new capillary gas chromatography stationary phase, monokis (2,6 di O benzyl 3 O propyl (3’)) hexakis(2,6 di O benzyl 3 O methyl) β CD bonded polysiloxane, was synthesized. It exhibited separation abilities to disubstituted benzene isomers and some chiral solutes. It was also found that the polarity of CD derivatives can be lowered both by chemically bonding it to polysiloxane and by diluting it in polysiloxane. The separation abilities of the polysiloxane anchored CDs (SP CD) are higher than that of the unbonded CDs (S CD) and the diluted S CD at lower column temperature. Hydrosilylation reaction is one of the best methods to lower the operating temperature of CDs.
文摘A novel β-cyclodextrin(β-CD)derivative bearing diethanolamine moiety was synthesized by a convenient method with 63% yield,and the new host compound was characterized by (13)~C-NMR,FT-IR spectra etc,
文摘Two tetrasubstituted carbazole derivatives TBICz and TOXDCz have been designed and synthesized,which possess the twist skeletons and exhibit excellent thermal and morphological stabilities.Utilizing these novel compounds as host material,high efficiency solution-processed green phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes(PhOLEDs)have been achieved.The high triplet energies of TBICz and TOXDCz ensure efficient energy transfer from the host to the phosphor and triplet exciton confinement on the phosphor.Solution-processable green phospho⁃rescent devices employing Ir(ppy)3 as vip and the two tetrasubstituted carbazole derivatives as hosts exhibit high ef⁃ficiencies.The best EL performance is achieved for the TBICz-based device,with a maximum current efficiency of 27.3 cd/A,a maximum power efficiency of 15.9 lm/W,and a maximum external quantum efficiency of 7.8%,which provides more host material options for solution-processed OLEDs.

文摘This research was aim to develop novel cyclodextrin/chitosan （CD/CS） nanocarriers for insoluble drug delivery through the mild ionic gelation method previously developed by our lab. A series of different β- cyclodextrin （β-CD） derivatives were incorporated into CS nanoparticles including hydroxypropyl-β- cyclodextrin （HP-β-CD）, sulphobutylether-β-cyclodextrin （SB-β-CD）, and 2,6-di-O-methy-βcyclodex- trin （DM-β-CD）. Various process parameters for nanoparticle preparation and their effects on physicochemical properties of CD/CS nanoparticles were investigated, such as the type of CD derivatives, CD and CS concentrations, the mass ratio of CS to TPP （CS/TRP）, and pH values. In the optimal condition, CDICS nanoparticles were obtained in the size range of 215-276 nm and with the zeta potential from 30.22 mV to 35.79 mY. Moreover, the stability study showed that the incorporation of CD rendered the CD/CS nanocarriers more stable than CS nanoparticles in PBS buffer at pH 6.8. For their easy preparation and adjustable parameters in nanoparticle formation as well as the diversified hydrophobic core of CD derivatives, the novel CD/CS nanoparticles developed herein might represent an interesting and versatile drug delivery platform for a variety of poorly water-soluble drugs with different physicochemical properties.

文摘Two β-cyclodextrin derivatives bearing appended quinolyl and isoquinolyl arms,i.e.mono-（6-quinolyl- 6-deoxy）-β-cyclodextrin（1） and mono-（6-isoquinolyl-6-deoxy）-β-cyclodextrin（2） were synthesized in satisfactory yields and fully characterized.Their original conformations and binding behaviors toward four bile salt vips,that is,sodium cholate（CA）,sodium deoxycholate（DCA）,sodium glycocholate （GCA）,and sodium taurocholate（TCA）,were investigated by means of fluorescence,circular dichroism and 2D NMR spectroscopy.The study of solution structures revealed that both quinolyl and isoquinolyl arms were located outside the cyclodextrin cavity.The results obtained from the fluorescence titrations showed that the binding abilities of hosts 1 and 2 with selected bile salts varied in an order of DCA 〉 CA 〉 GCA.The selective binding of hosts toward bile salt vips was discussed from the viewpoints of induced-fit and multiple binding.
文摘The objectives of the study were to investigate the effects of β-cyclodextrin(βCD) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin(HPβCD) on the solubility and dissolution rate of norfloxacin prepared using three different methods, at drug to cyclodextrin weight ratios of 1:1, 1:2, 1:4 and 1:8. All the methods increased the solubility and dissolution rate of norfloxacin via inclusion complexation with βCD and HPβCD. Norfloxacin was converted from crystalline to amorphous form through inclusion complexation. Solvent evaporation method was the most effective method in terms of norfloxacin solubilisation, while inclusion complex of HPβCD has higher solubility than βCD complex when prepared using the same procedure.

文摘Diisobutylaluminium hydride （DIBAL-H） promotes secondary rim regioselective bis-de-O-methylation of permethylated β- cyclodextrin （β-CD） to give diol 2. To gain an insight into the mechanism of this remarkable regioselective behavior, two corresponding permethylated β-CDs with an alcohol function at either 2- or 3-position were synthesized in our previous study. As a step further to this work, the two compounds were subjected to deoxygenation reaction with tributyltin hydride in the present of 2,2＇- azobisisobutyronitrile affording the corresponding 2- and 3-deoxy permethylated β-CD derivatives （19 and 16）. The structures of these two compounds were characterized by 1D and 2D NMR and HRMS. Compounds 16 and 19 were unable to react with DIBAL- H which suggests that O-2A and O-3B are necessary for DIBAL-H promoted bis-de-O-methylation reaction of permethylated β-CD.

文摘The poor reversibility and stability of Zn anodes greatly restrict the practical application of aqueous Zn-ion batteries(AZIBs),resulting from the uncontrollable dendrite growth and H_(2)O-induced side reactions during cycling.Electrolyte additive modification is considered one of the most effective and simplest methods for solving the aforementioned problems.Herein,the pyridine derivatives(PD)including 2,4-dihydroxypyridine(2,4-DHP),2,3-dihydroxypyridine(2,3-DHP),and 2-hydroxypyrdine(2-DHP),were em-ployed as novel electrolyte additives in ZnSO_(4)electrolyte.Both density functional theory calculation and experimental findings demonstrated that the incorporation of PD additives into the electrolyte effectively modulates the solvation structure of hydrated Zn ions,thereby suppressing side reactions in AZIBs.Ad-ditionally,the adsorption of PD molecules on the zinc anode surface contributed to uniform Zn deposi-tion and dendrite growth inhibition.Consequently,a 2,4-DHP-modified Zn/Zn symmetrical cell achieved an extremely long cyclic stability up to 5650 h at 1 mA cm^(-2).Furthermore,the Zn/NH_(4)V_(4)O_(10)full cell with 2,4-DHP-containing electrolyte exhibited an outstanding initial capacity of 204 mAh g^(-1),with a no-table capacity retention of 79%after 1000 cycles at 5 A g^(-1).Hence,this study expands the selection of electrolyte additives for AZIBs,and the working mechanism of PD additives provides new insights for electrolyte modification enabling highly reversible zinc anode.

文摘A cyclomaltoheptaose--cyclodextrin (-CD) crosslinked chitosan derivative via glyoxal or glutaraldehyde was prepared. The structures of -CD crosslined chitosan with glyoxal or glutaraldehyde were characterized by IR spectra. The surface morphology of the -CD crosslinked chitosan particles was examined using a scanning electron microscope. The immobilization capacity of ?CD on chitosan was affected on the weight ratio of -CD/chitosan, the utilization amount of crosslinking agent, the acidity of the reaction system and the temperature. The adsorption for nicotine indicated that the chitosan--CD was a good adsorbent.
