Intramolecular energy transfer process for these complexes is discussed in detail. It is found that the intramolecular energy transfer efficiency depends on the relative positions between the resonance energy levels of the central rare earth ions and the lowest triplet state energies of ligands.展开更多

In recent years, great efforts have been made to synthesize 2,5-FDCA through the following methods:(1) oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF) in the presence of complex biocatalyst or metallic catalyst;(2) conversion of 2-furoic acid via the well-known Henkel Reaction. Herein, a new strategy for the synthesis of 2,5-FDCA from furan and acetic anhydride under mild condition is reported. The purity of the resulted 2,5-FDCA was above 99.9%. Acetic acid and iodoform generated in the reaction were recyclable and no other harmful by-products were detected. The thus-obtained 2,5-FDCA was applied for the preparation of poly(ethylene furandicarboxylate)(PEF) of high quality in terms of high molecular weight and good appearance.展开更多
