文摘The deuterium labeling has garnered significant interest in drug discovery due to its critical role on improving pharmacokinetic and metabolic properties.However,despite its pharmaceutical value,the general and rapid syntheses of aromatic scaffolds that contains deuterium remain an important yet elusive task.State-of-the-art approaches mainly relied on the transition metal-catalyzed C-H deuteration via the assistance of directing groups(DGs),which often suffered from over-deuteration and lengthy step counts required for installation and/or removal of DG.Herein,we report a generalizable synthetic linchpin strategy for the facile preparation of the ortho-deuterated aromatic core.Through capture of aryne-derived 1,3-zwitterion with heavy water,we synthesized an array of ortho-deuterated aryl sulfonium salts.These novel linchpins not only participated the transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reaction as nucleophiles,but also served as aryl radical reservoirs under photochemical or electrochemical conditions,enabling facile and precise access to structurally diverse deuterated aromatics.Moreover,we have disclosed a novel EDA complex enabled direct arylation of phosphines under visible-light irradiation,further expanding the utility of our platform approach.

文摘Rare earth(RE)Y-type zeolite was synthesized in situ by acidic co-hydrolysis route and hydrothermal method.The key process parameters were optimized based on the RE utilization rate.The effect of inducing a rotating packed bed(RPB)in premixing and crystallization on crystallinity and RE utilization rate was further investigated.The results indicate that lanthanide(La)cations are successfully introduced into the sodalite cage of Y-type zeolite.The optimized conditions are that the molar ratio of Si/La is 150,premixing for 5 h,crystallization at 90℃ for 18 h,and calcination at 550℃ for 3.5 h.At this stage,the RE utilization rate reaches 74.5%.Compared with the conventional stirred tank reactor(STR),RPB can effectively shorten the premixing time and crystallization time by 4.3 h and 6 h,improve the crystallinity by 23%and RE utilization rate by 7.5%.The RE utilization rate is more than 80%by RPB,surpassing the effectiveness of using the one-exchange one-calcination process in the traditional liquid ion exchange process.It is expected to provide a reference for the in-situ efficient and green synthesis of RE zeolite.

文摘High temperature stress (HT) significantly reduces maize yield by impairing starch accumulation in kernels.However,the mechanism by which HT affects starch synthesis remains controversial-whether through reduced assimilate supply or direct inhibition on kernel metabolism.To clarify these mechanisms,a heat-sensitive maize hybrid,Xianyu 335 (XY),was exposed to 30℃/20℃ (maximum/minimum temperature,control) and 40℃/30℃ for seven consecutive days during the seed setting stage.Synchronous pollination (SP),apical pollination (AP),and shading treatments were applied to manipulate the inherent source–sink ratio in maize plants.Results showed that apical kernel weight decreased by 11.9%under 40℃ in the SP treatment.The ^(13)C content,starch accumulation,and cell-wall invertase (CWIN) activity also declined by 15.9,36.7,and 16.4%,respectively,under HT.In the shading treatment,40℃/30℃ caused even greater reductions in^(13)C content,starch accumulation,and CWIN activity due to diminished assimilate supply.Conversely,in the AP treatment,starch content and CWIN activity increased by 22.0 and 18.5%,respectively,under 40℃/30℃,resulting in kernel weight and ^(13)C content similar to those in SP and shading treatments regardless of temperature.Consistent with apical kernels under AP,HT did not negatively affect middle kernels in either SP or shading treatments,as kernel weight and starch content remained unchanged under HT.Although all kernels were exposed to the same HT or control environment,their responses varied a lot.The impaired starch synthesis in apical kernels under HT was rescued by increasing carbon supply via AP treatment.The contrasting performance among middle kernels,apical kernels under AP,and apical kernels under SP or shading indicates that reduced carbon supply is a critical factor underlying inhibited starch accumulation.Our findings provide a theoretical basis for further understanding kernel abortion under HT.

文摘The two-electron electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)affords an appealing alternative for on-site production of hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2)),which can fulfill the demands of various applications even at low concentrations.Under neutral or near-neutral conditions,the electrolyte environment capable of electrochemically synthesizing H_(2)O_(2) exhibits diversity and holds vast potential for practical applications;however,the electrocatalytic performance is limited without desirable electrode materials.In this contribution,methoxylated nickel hydroxides were proposed for high-performance on-site H_(2)O_(2) electrosynthesis in different potassium fertilizer solutions.The methoxylation compared to pristine Ni(OH)_(2) was demonstrated to optimize the electronic structure with favorable adsorption of reaction intermediates,obviously enhancing the activity and selectivity.In 0.10 M K_(2)SO_(4) solution,H_(2)O_(2) production ranged from 28.1 to 153.6 mg h^(-1) cm^(-2) at current densities of-50 to-250 mA cm^(-2),accompanied by Faradaic efficiency values exceeding 88.0%.An integrated system was devised by combining fertilization,disinfection,and irrigation through the coupling of two-electron ORR with agricultural irrigation,utilizing nutrient solutions as the electrolyte for on-site H_(2)O_(2) electrosynthesis.These findings afford a promising avenue for the practical application of 2e-ORR in neutral environments.
