Solar-thermal-enabled self-heating promises an attractive approach to overcome this issue.Here, we report a unique H-bonding charge-transfer complex with a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 79.5% at 405 nm based on chloranilic acid and albendazole. Integrated with a microsupercapacitor, the chloranilic acid-albendazole complex(CAC) film prompts an apparent temperature increase of 22.7 °C under 1 sun illumination at-32.6 °C, effectively elevating the working temperature of devices.As a result, the rate capability of the microsupercapacitor has been significantly improved with a 17-fold increase in capacitance at a current density of 60 μA cm^(-2), leading to outstanding low-temperature performances. Importantly, the integrated device is capable of working at a low temperature of-30 °C in the open air, which demonstrates the potential of CAC in practical applications for low-temperature ultracapacitive energy-storage devices.展开更多

The method is based on charge-transfer (CT) complex with chloranilic acid. Fluorescence intensity of the complexes was measured at emission wavelength ranging from 445-492 nm with excitation wavelengths from 285-330 nm. At optimum experimental conditions, a linear calibration plot was obtained in the concentration range of 20-1000 ng·mL-1, 60-320 ng·mL-1, 20-800 ng·mL-1 and 20 -00 ng·mL-1 for CPFX, LEV, MOX and GAT, respectively with good correlation coefficient in the range of 0.9929-1.0 in methanolic medium. The limit of detection and limit of quantification were found to be 5 ng·mL-1 and 18 ng·mL-1 for CPFX, 12 ng·mL-1 and 40 ng·mL-1 for LEV, 8 ng·mL-1 and 19 ng·mL-1 for MOX, 6 ng·mL-1 and 19 ng·mL-1 for GAT, respectively. The method was found free of interferences from excipients used as additive in pharmaceutical preparations, some common cations and compounds present in urine and plasma as well as co-administered analgesic, vitamins and other drugs. The method was successfully applied for quantification of selected fluoroquinolones in commercial formulations and also in spiked human urine and plasma samples with percent recoveries of 100.0 ± 1.56 and 100.2 ± 1.29 respectively.展开更多

文摘While nickel(II)complexes have been widely used as catalysts for carbon-carbon coupling reactions,the exploration of their photophysical and photochemical properties is still in the infancy.Here,a series of square-planar Ni(II)complexes[(diNHC)NiX2]bearing chelating benzimidazole-based bis(N-heterocyclic carbene)ligands and varying anionic coligands(1,X=Cl;2,X=Br;3,X=I)are synthesized and structurally characterized.In solid state,both 1 and 2 exhibit orange-red photoluminescence under ambient conditions.The photophysical and electrochemical measurements along with density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that the low-energy emissions can be attributed to singlet excited states with ligand-to-ligand charge-transfer(LLCT)character.This work suggests that strong-field N-heterocyclic carbene ligands play a crucial role to achieve the luminescence of Ni(II)complexes.

文摘Photoirradiation of anthraquinone(AQ)derivatives withγ-cyclodextrin(γ-CD)in aqueous solution led to aγ-CD derivative with a 9,10-dihydroxylanthracene grafting unprecedentedly at the 5′-position of one glucoside ofγ-CD in high efficiency.Meanwhile,another AQ enters into the remaining space of the 9,10-dihydroxylanthracene-occupiedγ-CD cavity to in-situ form a selfincluded quinhydrone charge transfer(CT)complex.The structure of the supramolecular CT complex was unambiguously demonstrated by 1 D and 2 D NMR(^(1)H NMR,^(13)C NMR,DEPT,^(1)H-^(1)H COSY,HSQC,HMBC,TOCSY,and ROESY)spectroscopies,which revealed a highly stereoselective stacking of the quinhydrone pairs in theγ-CD cavity.The supramolecular CT complex showed an unusually high binding affinity and improved oxidation resistance.Polyacrylamides bearingγ-CD or anthraquinone were respectively synthesized by co-polymerization of acrylamide with the corresponding monomer.Photoirradiation of aqueous mixtures containing these two types of polymers led to gelation,which was applied to 3 D photo-printing of soft materials.

文摘Charge-transfer(CT)stoichiometric cocrystals are promising choice of organic materials for unveiling the structure-property relationship.However,due to the contradiction between large CT degree required for strong NIR absorption and flexible molecular stacking,construction of stoichiomorphism-based cocystals with near-infrared(NIR)photothermal property remains challenging.Herein,the first example of stoichiomorphism-based photothermal cocrystals were accomplished through the adaptive assembly of 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB)donor and 1,2,4,5-tetracyanobenzene(TCNB)acceptor.The selective cocrystallization could be controlled by varying the donor-acceptor stoichiometries via a surfactantassisted method,resulting in two cocrystals with 1:1(T1C1)and 1:2(T2C1)stoichiometries.The absorbance intensity of T1C1 at 808 nm was nearly twice that of T2C1,while the photothermal conversion efficiency(PCE)of the former was 60.3%±0.6%,approximately 80%of that for the latter(75.5%±2.6%),which might be caused by the different intermolecular interactions in distinct molecular stacking patterns.Notably,both excellent PCEs of stoichiometric cocrystals were attributed to the nonradiative transition process,including internal conversion and charge dissociation processes,as elucidated by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy measurements.Furthermore,T1C1 was used as an NIR heater for preparing agarose-based photothermal hydrogel,showing great potential for light-controlled in-situ gelation.This strategy of balancing the CT degree and molecular packing orientation not only uncovered the relationship between stoichiometric stacking and photothermal property,but also provided an opportunity to develop advanced organic optoelectronic materials.
文摘To expand the study on the structures and biological activities of the anthracyclines anticancer drugs and reduce their toxic side effects,the new anthraquinone derivatives,9‑pyridylanthrahydrazone(9‑PAH)and 9,10‑bispyridylanthrahydrazone(9,10‑PAH)were designed and synthesized.Utilizing 9‑PAH and 9,10‑PAH as promising anticancer ligands,their respective copper complexes,namely[Cu(L1)Cl_(2)]Cl(1)and{[Cu_(4)(μ_(2)‑Cl)_(3)Cl_(4)(9,10‑PAH)_(2)(DMSO)_(2)]Cl_(2)}_(n)(2),were subsequently synthesized,where the new ligand L1 is formed by coupling two 9‑PAH ligands in the coordination reaction.The chemical and crystal structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by IR,MS,elemental analysis,and single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction.Complex 1 forms a mononuclear structure.L1 coordinates with Cu through its three N atoms,together with two Cl atoms,to form a five‑coordinated square pyramidal geometry.Complex 2 constitutes a polymeric structure,wherein each structural unit centrosymmetrically encompasses two five‑coordinated binuclear copper complexes(Cu1,Cu2)of 9,10‑PAH,with similar square pyramidal geometry.A chlorine atom(Cl_(2)),located at the symmetry center,bridges Cu1 and Cu1A to connect the two binuclear copper structures.Meanwhile,the two five‑coordinated Cu2 atoms symmetrically bridge the adjacent structural units via one coordinated Cl atom,respectively,thus forming a 1D chain‑like polymeric structure.In vitro anticancer activity assessments revealed that 1 and 2 showed significant cytotoxicity even higher than cisplatin.Specifically,the IC_(50)values of 2 against HeLa‑229 and SK‑OV‑3 cancer cell lines were determined to be(5.92±0.32)μmol·L^(-1)and(6.48±0.39)μmol·L^(-1),respectively.2 could also block the proliferation of HeLa‑229 cells in S phase and significantly induce cell apoptosis.In addition,fluorescence quenching competition experiments suggested that 2 might interact with DNA by an intercalative binding mode,offering insights into its underlying anticancer mechanism.CCDC:2388918,1;2388919,2.

文摘A complex system is inherently high-dimensional.Recent studies indicate that,even without complete knowledge of its evolutionary dynamics,the future behavior of such a system can be predicted using time-series data(data-driven prediction).This suggests that the essential dynamics of a complex system can be captured through a low-dimensional representation.Virus evolution and climate change are two examples of complex,time-varying systems.In this article,we show that mutations in the spike protein provide valuable data for predicting SARS-CoV-2 variants,forecasting the possible emergence of the new macro-lineage Q in the near future.Our analysis also demonstrates that carbon dioxide concentration is a reliable indicator for predicting the evolution of the climate system,extending global surface air temperature(GSAT)forecasts through 2500.

文摘Image-maps,a hybrid design with satellite images as background and map symbols uploaded,aim to combine the advantages of maps’high interpretation efficiency and satellite images’realism.The usability of image-maps is influenced by the representations of background images and map symbols.Many researchers explored the optimizations for background images and symbolization techniques for symbols to reduce the complexity of image-maps and improve the usability.However,little literature was found for the optimum amount of symbol loading.This study focuses on the effects of background image complexity and map symbol load on the usability(i.e.,effectiveness and efficiency)of image-maps.Experiments were conducted by user studies via eye-tracking equipment and an online questionnaire survey.Experimental data sets included image-maps with ten levels of map symbol load in ten areas.Forty volunteers took part in the target searching experiments.It has been found that the usability,i.e.,average time viewed(efficiency)and average revisits(effectiveness)of targets recorded,is influenced by the complexity of background images,a peak exists for optimum symbol load for an image-map.The optimum levels for symbol load for different image-maps also have a peak when the complexity of the background image/image map increases.The complexity of background images serves as a guideline for optimum map symbol load in image-map design.This study enhanced user experience by optimizing visual clarity and managing cognitive load.Understanding how these factors interact can help create adaptive maps that maintain clarity and usability,guiding AI algorithms to adjust symbol density based on user context.This research establishes the practices for map design,making cartographic tools more innovative and more user-centric.

文摘The Jiuyishan granitic complex,located in the Nanling Range,South China,is composed of five granitic plutons(Xuehuading,Jinjiling,Pangxiemu,Shaziling and Xishan).Zircon U-Pb dating of four plutons(Jinjiling,Pangxiemu,Shaziling and Xishan)yielded similar ages of approximately 153 Ma,indicating indistinguishable ages within error.Three plutons except the Shaziling pluton,have consistentε_(Nd)(t)(-7.8 to-5.8)andε_(Hf)(t)(-9.1 to-2.2)values,which are similar to those of the lower crustal granulitic metasedimentary and meta-igneous rocks in South China.Compared to other three plutons,the Shaziling pluton has consistentε_(Nd)(t)(-7.4 to-6.8)andε_(Hf)(t)(-7.5 to-4.7)values and shows similar source,but the Shaziling mafic microgranular enclaves(MMEs)show variableε_(Hf)(t)(-14.2 to 4.8)values,indicating a remarkable mantle magma injection of the Shaziling pluton.Zircon Ce/Sm-Yb/Gd,whole-rock CaO-P_(2)O_(5)and CaO-TiO_(2)linear trends reveal that from the Xishan to the Shaziling and from the Jinjiling to the Pangxiemu granites,they experienced apatite and titanite fractionation,respectively.Zircon Th,U,Nb,Ta,Hf,Ti,Y,P and rare earth element(REE)contents and whole-rock Sr,Ba and Rb contents also show that the Shaziling,Xishan,Jinjiling and Pangxiemu granites followed a discontinuous evolutionary series,but the Pangxiemu granites exhibit highly evolved nature.Four main controlling factors of W-Sn and rare metal mineralization in granitic rocks were discussed,and we found that the mineralization in Jiuyishan granitic complex was mainly controlled by the fractionation degree and crystallization temperature,but were rarely affected by oxygen fugacity and mantle material input.The Pangxiemu granites show particularly higher Rb and Ta contents than the other three plutons,implying that the ore deposits developed in the Jiuyishan Complex were directly related to the most evolved Pangxiemu pluton,with the occurrence of Rb and Ta as the most likely rare metal mineralization in the Jiuyishan District.A crystal mush model is proposed to interpret the petrogenetic and mineralizing processes of the Jiuyishan granitic complex.

文摘A phenylphenothiazine anchored Tb(Ⅲ)-cyclen complex PTP-Cy-Tb for hypochlorite ion(ClO^(-))detection has been designed and prepared.PTP-Cy-Tb shows a weak Tb-based emission with AIE-characteristics in aqueous solutions.After addition of ClO^(-),the fluorescence of PTP-Cy-Tb gives a large enhancement for oxidization the thioether to sulfoxide group.The detection limit of PTP-Cy-Tb toward ClO^(-)is as low as 8.85 nmol/L.The sensing mechanism was detailedly investigated by time of flight mass spectrometer(TOF-MS),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)and density functional theory(DFT)calculation.In addition,PTP-Cy-Tb has been successfully used for on-site and real-time detection of ClO^(-)in real water samples by using the smartphone-based visualization method and test strips.

文摘Metal complexes hold significant promise in tumor diagnosis and treatment.However,their potential applications in photodynamic therapy(PDT)are hindered by issues such as poor photostability,low yield of reactive oxygen species(ROS),and aggregation-induced ROS quenching.To address these challenges,we present a molecular self-assembly strategy utilizing aggregation-induced emission(AIE)conjugates for metal complexes.As a proof of concept,we synthesized a mitochondrial-targeting cyclometalated Ir(Ⅲ)photosensitizer Ir-TPE.This approach significantly enhances the photodynamic effect while mitigating the dark toxicity associated with AIE groups.Ir-TPE readily self-assembles into nanoaggregates in aqueous solution,leading to a significant production of ROS upon light irradiation.Photoirradiated Ir-TPE triggers multiple modes of death by excessively accumulating ROS in the mitochondria,resulting in mitochondrial DNA damage.This damage can lead to ferroptosis and autophagy,two forms of cell death that are highly cytotoxic to cancer cells.The aggregation-enhanced photodynamic effect of Ir-TPE significantly enhances the production of ROS,leading to a more pronounced cytotoxic effect.In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate this aggregation-enhanced PDT approach achieves effective in situ tumor eradication.This study not only addresses the limitations of metal complexes in terms of low ROS production due to aggregation but also highlights the potential of this strategy for enhancing ROS production in PDT.
文摘Luminescence thermometry has attracted more and more attention due to its non-contact and noninvasive operation,fast response,high spatial resolution,and so on,for which the luminescent thermometers are the key.Here,a 1D complex[Tb_(4)(HTC4A)(TC4A)(OBBA)_(2)(CH_(3)OH)_(4)(μ4-OH)]n(1)was obtained by solvothermal synthesis,where H 4TC4A=p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene,and H_(2)OBBA=4,4'-oxybisbenzoic acid.This complex is featured with a chain-like polymer constructed by bridging some sandwich-like Tb_(4)-(TC4A)_(2)entities through OBBA2-ligands.It exhibited the characteristic emission of the Tb^(3+)ion.Both fluorescence intensity and lifetime decreased with increasing temperature.The relative sensitivity was up to 8.743%·K^(-1)at 473 K,indicating it is a good ratiometric luminescent thermometer.This complex had good stability under different pH values and in common solvents.CCDC:2392643.
