In this protocol, we utilize the ideas of the rearranging orders and the sequence transmission. The sender of messages, Alice, first disturbs the particle orders in an initial sequence, and then sends the sequence of the disturbed orders to the receiver of messages, Bob. Under Alice's introduction, Bob rearranges the sequence back to the initial sequence. By making a GHZ state measurement on each of the three particles in turn, Bob can attain Alice's secret messages. In addition, we still calculate the efficiency of our three-particle GHZ protocol and generalize it to the case using multi-particle GHZ state.展开更多

Here,the emission intensity of(C_(12)H_(24)O_(6))_(2)Na_(2)(H_(2)O)_(3)Cu_(4)I_(6) was strengthened between 9.3 GPa and 17.2 GPa, accompanied by the redshift of emission wavelength. The photoluminescence(PL) of Cu(Ⅰ)-based organometallic halides originates from multiple emission states, which are a metal-to-ligand charge transfer or a halide-to-ligand charge transfer(MLCT/HLCT)excited state and a cluster-centered(CC) excited state. MLCT/HLCT-related emission wavelength redshifts while CCrelated emission wavelength remains unchanged, indicating that the rearrangement of different emission states plays a critical role in the changes of luminescence wavelength. This study not only deepens the understanding of the influence of high pressure on(C_(12)H_(24)O_(6))_(2)Na_(2)(H_(2)O)_(3)Cu_(4)I_(6), but also provides valuable insights into the structure–property relationship of zero-dimensional Cu(Ⅰ)-based organometallic halides.展开更多

文摘The development of general and practical strategies toward the construction of medium-sized rings is still challenging in organic synthesis,especially for the multiple stereocenters control of substituted groups on the ring owing to the long distance between groups.Thus,stereoselective synthesis of multi-substituted ten-membered rings is attractive.Herein,a rapid assembly of various highly substituted ten-membered nitrogen heterocycles between two 1,3-dipoles through a tandem[3+3]cycloaddition/aza-Claisen rearrangement of N-vinyl-α,β-unsaturated nitrones and aza-oxyallyl or oxyallyl cations are disclosed.Products containing two or multiple stereocenters could be obtained in up to 96%yield with high regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.Selective N-O bond cleavages of ten-membered nitrogen heterocycles lead to various novel 5,6,6-perifused benzofurans,bicyclo[4.4.0]or bicyclo[5.3.0]skeletons containing three or multiple continuous stereocenters in good yields and high diastereoselectivity.Biological tests show that the obtained ten-membered N-heterocycles and bicyclo[4.4.0]skeletons inhibited nitric oxide generation in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells and might serve as good anti-inflammatory agents.

文摘The Meinwald rearrangement has proven to be one of the most useful tools in organic synthesis.However,examples of asymmetric Meinwald rearrangements are quite scarce,and these reactions have so far been limited to the use of chiral Br?nsted acids as catalysts.Here,we report a copper-catalyzed asymmetric cascade cyclization/Meinwald rearrangement reaction,allowing the practical and atom-economic synthesis of a range of chiral tricyclic pyrroles bearing a chiral oxa-quaternary carbon stereocenter in high yields and enantioselectivities.Thus,this protocol not only represents the first transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective Meinwald rearrangement,but also constitutes the first example of asymmetric formal monocarbon insertion into C-O bond of ester.Moreover,theoretical calculations provide further evidence for this multiple cascade cyclization and elucidate the origin of enantioselectivity.

文摘The radical difunctionalization of alkenes with sulfonyl bifunctional represents a powerful and straightforward approach to access functionalized alkane derivatives.However,both the mechanistic activation mode and the substrate scopes of this type of radical difunctionalizations are still limited.We demonstrate herein a modular photoredox strategy for the difunctionalization of alkenes,employing arylsulfonyl acetate as the bifunctional reagent.This approach involves a radical addition/Smiles rearrangement cascade process,offering a robust alternative for the synthesis of valuableγ,γ-diaryl andγ-aryl esters.A complementary oxidative bifunctional reagents activation mode is identified to govern the radical cascade reactions,facilitating the simultaneous incorporation of aryl and carboxylate-bearing alkyl groups into the alkenes with excellent diastereoselectivity.Noteworthy features of this method include mild reaction conditions,organophotocatalysis,high atom-and step-economy,excellent functional group compatibility and great structural diversity.

文摘The insect mitogenome is typically a compact circular molecule with highly conserved gene contents.Nonetheless,mitogenome structural variations have been reported in specific taxa,and gene rearrangements,usually the tRNAs,occur in different lineages.Because synapomorphies of mitogenome organizations can provide information for phylogenetic inferences,comparative analyses of mitogenomes have been given increasing attention.However,most studies use a very few species to represent the whole genus,tribe,family,or even order,overlooking potential variations at lower taxonomic levels,which might lead to some incorrect inferences.To provide new insights into mitogenome organizations and their implications for phylogenetic inference,this study conducted comparative analyses for mitogenomes of three social bee tribes(Meliponini,Bombini,and Apini)based on the phylogenetic framework with denser taxonomic sampling at the species and population levels.Comparative analyses revealed that mitogenomes of Apini and Bombini are the typical type,while those of Meliponini show diverse variations in mitogenome sizes and organizations.Large inverted repeats(IRs)cause significant gene rearrangements of protein coding genes(PCGs)and rRNAs in Indo-Malay/Australian stingless bee species.Molecular evolution analyses showed that the lineage with IRs have lower dN/dS ratios for PCGs than lineages without IRs,indicating potential effects of IRs on the evolution of mitochondrial genes.The finding of IRs and different patterns of gene rearrangements suggested that Meliponini is a hotspot in mitogenome evolution.Unlike conserved PCGs and rRNAs whose rearrangements were found only in the mentioned lineages within Meliponini,tRNA rearrangements are common across all three tribes of social bees,and are significant even at the species level,indicating that comprehensive sampling is needed to fully understand the patterns of tRNA rearrangements,and their implications for phylogenetic inference.

文摘Objective This study aimed to understand the epidemic status and phylogenetic relationships of rotavirus group A(RVA)in the Pearl River Delta region of Guangdong Province,China.Methods This study included individuals aged 28 days–85 years.A total of 706 stool samples from patients with acute gastroenteritis collected between January 2019 and January 2020 were analyzed for 17 causative pathogens,including RVA,using a Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel,followed by genotyping,virus isolation,and complete sequencing to assess the genetic diversity of RVA.Results The overall RVA infection rate was 14.59%(103/706),with an irregular epidemiological pattern.The proportion of co-infection with RVA and other pathogens was 39.81%(41/103).Acute gastroenteritis is highly prevalent in young children aged 0–1 year,and RVA is the key pathogen circulating in patients 6–10 months of age with diarrhea.G9P[8](58.25%,60/103)was found to be the predominant genotype in the RVA strains,and the 41 RVA-positive strains that were successfully sequenced belonged to three different RVA genotypes in the phylogenetic analysis.Recombination analysis showed that gene reassortment events,selection pressure,codon usage bias,gene polymorphism,and post-translational modifications(PTMs)occurred in the G9P[8]and G3P[8]strains.Conclusion This study provides molecular evidence of RVA prevalence in the Pearl River Delta region of China,further enriching the existing information on its genetics and evolutionary characteristics and suggesting the emergence of genetic diversity.Strengthening the surveillance of genotypic changes and gene reassortment in RVA strains is essential for further research and a better understanding of strain variations for further vaccine development.

文摘Organic electrode materials are promising for batteries.However,the reported organic electrodes are often facing the challenges of low specific capacity,low voltage,poor rate capability and vague charge storage mechanisms,etc.Isomers are good platform to investigate the charge storage mechanisms and enhance the performance of batteries,which,however,have not been focused in batteries.Herein,two isomers are reported for batteries.As a result,the isomer tetrathiafulvalene(TTF)could store two monovalent anions reversibly,deriving an average discharge voltage of 1.05 V and a specific capacity of 220 mAh g−1 at a current density of 2 C.On the other hand,the other isomer tetrathianaphthalene could only reversibly store one monovalent anion and upon further oxidation,it would undergo an irreversible solid-state molecular rearrangement to TTF.The molecular rearrangement was confirmed by electrochemical performances,X-ray diffraction patterns,nuclear magnetic resonance spectra,and 1H detected heteronuclear multiple bond correlation spectra.These results suggested the small structural change could lead to a big difference in anion storage,and we hope this work will stimulate more attention to the structural design for boosting the performance of organic batteries.

文摘The identification of intercepted radio fuze modulation types is a prerequisite for decision-making in interference systems.However,the electromagnetic environment of modern battlefields is complex,and the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of such environments is usually low,which makes it difficult to implement accurate recognition of radio fuzes.To solve the above problem,a radio fuze automatic modulation recognition(AMR)method for low-SNR environments is proposed.First,an adaptive denoising algorithm based on data rearrangement and the two-dimensional(2D)fast Fourier transform(FFT)(DR2D)is used to reduce the noise of the intercepted radio fuze intermediate frequency(IF)signal.Then,the textural features of the denoised IF signal rearranged data matrix are extracted from the statistical indicator vectors of gray-level cooccurrence matrices(GLCMs),and support vector machines(SVMs)are used for classification.The DR2D-based adaptive denoising algorithm achieves an average correlation coefficient of more than 0.76 for ten fuze types under SNRs of-10 d B and above,which is higher than that of other typical algorithms.The trained SVM classification model achieves an average recognition accuracy of more than 96%on seven modulation types and recognition accuracies of more than 94%on each modulation type under SNRs of-12 d B and above,which represents a good AMR performance of radio fuzes under low SNRs.
