文摘An unprecedented 2,3-arylacylation reaction of allenes with aryl iodides and aldehydes was developed by resorting to Pd/NHC synergetic catalysis.It is the first time that allene was introduced into transition metal and NHC synergetic catalysis,which demonstrated a versatile three-component reaction pattern,thus enabling two C-C bonds forged regioselectively in the reaction.The important reaction intermediates were successfully captured and characterized by HRMS analysis,and the migrative insertion of allene to the Ph-Pd species was identified as the reaction rate-limiting step by kinetic experiments.

文摘In this work,a series of Ce-Ti composite oxides with different Ti/Ce molar ratios was prepared by coprecipitation method,and investigated for the catalytic degradation of toluene and selective catalytic reduction of NO.The phase transition process between Ce species and Ti species is limited by modulating the interaction between Ce4+and Ti4+,while a completely amorphous composite is generated with an appropriate molar ratio of Ti/Ce(1.5/1).The catalyst CeTi1.5Oxexhibits the best catalytic performance,where the values of T90and T50for deep degradation of toluene are 297 and 330℃respectively at high weight hours space velocity(WHSV=120000 mL/(g·h)).Compared with CeO_(2),T90and T50decrease by48 and 34℃respectively while declining by 67 and 70℃compared to TiO_(2).For the SCR reaction,CeTi1.5Oxreaches 100%NO conversion at 250℃with WHSV=60000 mL/(g·h),reduced by 50℃compared to pure CeO_(2).The amorphous nanostructure with highly dispersed Ce and Ti species was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and X-ray diffraction(XRD)characterizations.The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)and Raman analyses show that a large number of active Ce-O-Ti species and surface oxygen vacancies are generated due to the strong interaction between Ti^(4+)and Ce^(4+)in CeTi_(1.5)O_(x).Additionally,H_(2)-TPR and O_(2)-TPD further confirm that the interaction promotes the low-temperature reducibility and mobility of surface-active oxygen species.Meanwhile,in-situ DRIFTS study reveals that CeTi1.5Oxwith amorphous nanostructure can dramatically enhance the dissociative and complete oxidation capacity for toluene.

文摘Hydrogen production coupled with small molecule oxidation derived by renewable energy power has been widely studied as an effective method to reduce energy consumption and prepare added value production.Here,the copper-cobalt phosphide with a multilevel structure has been designed based on the hard and soft acids and bases theory.The nanocone composed of lamellas presented a sharp tip,which a positive effect on the mass transfer enhanced by a local electric field,and the nanolamellas contain CoP/Cu_(3)P interface provide the highly selective active site for the gluconic acid(GNA)synthesis and hydrogen evolution.The catalyst can drive hydrogen evolution at 5 A·cm^(-2)up to 437 h without active decay,and the electrocatalytic glucose oxidation at anode presents high efficiency due to Cu(I)introduction and the synergetic effect between interfaces.Density functional theory(DFT)calculation shows that water splitting more readily occurs at the CoP,which provides adsorbed H and-OH for hydrogen evolution and glucose oxidation,respectively,and glucose adsorption more readily occurs at the Cu_(3)P,which presents lower conversion energy for high value-added GNA.Efficient hydrogen evolution and glucose conversion indicate its high intrinsic activity and synergetic effect.This work provides a special interface construction strategy for the catalytic conversion of hydrogen and small molecules.

文摘To enhance the operational capacity and space utilization of baffle-drop shafts,this study improved the traditional baffle-drop shaft by expanding the wet-side space,incorporating large rotation-angle baffles,and installing overflow holes in the dividing wall.A three-dimensional turbulent model was developed using ANSYS Fluent to simulate the hydraulic characteristics of both traditional and new baffle-drop shafts across various flow rates.The simulation results demonstrated that the new shaft design allowed for discharge from both the wet and dry sides,significantly improving operational capacity,with the dry side capable of handling 40%of the inlet flow.Compared to the traditional shaft,the new design reduced shaft wall pressures and decreased the mean and standard deviation of pressure on typical baffles by 21%and 63%,respectively,therefore enhancing structural safety.Additionally,the new shaft achieved a 2%-12%higher energy dissipation rate than the traditional shaft across different flow rates.This study offers valuable insights for the design and optimization of drop shafts in deep tunnel drainage systems.

文摘Acidic-and alkalic-hydrolyses are selective in breaking functional bonds and falling off pharmacological moieties of antibiotics in production wastewater in comparison with advanced oxidation processes.Elevating temperature can accelerate hydrolytic kinetics and improve efficiency.In this work,magnetic sulfonated polypropylene resin(Fe_(3)O_(4)@PS-S)composites were reported for acidic-thermal hydrolysis of tylosin by employing the acidic feature of sulfonic group,the dielectric effect of resin,and the magnetic-loss effect of magnetite under microwave irradiation.As observed,a rapid and complete mitigation 100 mg/L of tylosin was achieved within 15 min by the catalysts.Acidic cleavage of tylosin was fulfilled by sulfonic groups in the composites,and microwave thermal accelerated the hydrolysis reactions due to the dielectric and magnetic-loss effects.Differentiating the dielectric and magnetic-loss effects through electromagnetic analyses indicated that the latter contributed more in converting microwave energy to heat.The interactions under multiple operational conditions were quantitatively fitted using the Behnajady model and visually demonstrated,which indicated that a synergic effect of microwave thermal-and acidichydrolyses contributed to the efficient mitigation of tylosin.The transformation products were identified and the pathways were supposed.Cleaving deoxyaminosugars groups and destructing lactone structures led to reduced antibacterial potential and toxicity reduction.The acute toxicity of tylosin and transformation products to fish,daphnia,and green algae were all classified as non-toxic.This work suggested that this synergistic acid-thermal hydrolytic method is attractive and promising in pretreating tylosin production wastewater in field.

文摘As a novel material,high-entropy compounds have attracted extensive attention in the field of lithium–sulfur battery host materials due to their diverse elemental composition with a wide range of properties.The ability to effectively mitigate the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides and catalyze the bidirectional conversion of Li_(2)S_(2)/Li_(2)S is crucial to enhance the overall performance of the battery.In this study,a unique sulfur host nanosized highentropy material comprising selenium-doped HEO(AlCrFeCoNi)_(3)O_(4-x)-Se_(x)is fabricated using an in situ thermal reduction and selenylation method.In the high-entropy compounds,the introduction of Se causes that the generation of oxygen vacancies during the lattice distortion serves as ion transfer pathway and the formation of M-Se bonds provides a high adsorption capability for LiPSs.Moreover,the polymetallic cooperative high-entropy nanoparticles also provide numerous active sites favoring redox kinetics of the sulfur electrode.The resulting selenium-doped HEO(AlCrFeCoNi)_(3)O_(4-x)-Se_(x)not only enhances discharge capacity but also maintains excellent capacity cycling stability.As a result,the HEO-Se/S composite exhibits a specific capacity of 1233.9 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1C and experiences minimal capacity fading at a rate of 0.038%per cycle over 500 cycles at 0.2C,while host materials with sulfur loading of 4.33 mg cm^(-2)and E/S ratio of 5.88μL mg^(-1)exhibit excellent capacity retention after 100 cycles at 0.2C.This work offers new insights into synthesizing high-entropy nanomaterials for improving the electrochemical performance of Li–S batteries.

文摘Photodynamic therapy(PDT),as a non-invasive treatment,is expected to be widely used in clinical cancer treatment.In this paper,a near-infrared(NIR)light responsive Lu_(2)O_(3):Yb/Er/Li-Ce6@MIL-101/GOx-PDA(LCMGP)nanodiagnostic platform was prepared for CT/PA imaging-guided multimodality synergistic therapy.Under 808 nm laser irradiation,Lu_(2)O_(3):Yb/Er/Li-Ce6(LC)NPs in the nano-diagnostic platform are activated and sensitized by NIR light,resulting in the generation of more single-linear oxygen(^(1)O_(2))for efficient PDT.Glucose oxidase(GOx)and MIL-101(Fe)nanozymes can utilize their excellent enzyme cascade catalytic properties and peroxidase-like catalytic properties to undergo glycolysis reactions and catalyze the decomposition of endogenous hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2)),producing a large amount of hydroxyl radicals(·OH),achieving efficient chemodynamic therapy(CDT).The functionalized modification of polydopamine(PDA)endows the LCMGP nanoparticles with higher photothermal conversion efficiency,which can prompt high local temperature at the tumor site under the irradiation of NIR light to achieve efficient photothermal therapy(PTT).In addition,hyperthermia accelerates the catalytic efficiency of the nanozymatic cascade of LCMGP nanoparticles to enhance ROS production while increasing cellular uptake,resulting in PTT-induced PDT/CDT synergistic effect(96%).Based on the excellent photothermal conversion effect of PDA and the high X-ray atte nuation effect of Lu/Fe,the LCMGP nanotherapeutic system demonstrates good CT/PA imaging function,providing new insights and ideas for imaging-mediated multimodal synergistic therapy.

文摘Development of high-efficiency bifunctional oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER)electrocatalysts is vital for the widespread application of zinc-air batteries(ZABs).However,it still remains a great challenge to avoid the inhomogeneous distribution and aggregation of metal single-atomic active centers in the construction of bifunctional electrocatalysts with atomically dispersed multimetallic sites because of the common calcination method.Herein,we report a novel catalyst with phthalocyanine-assembled Fe-Co-Ni single-atomic triple sites dispersed on sulfur-doped graphene using a simple ultrasonic procedure without calcination,and X-ray absorption fine structure(XAFS),aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy(AC-STEM),and other detailed characterizations are performed to demonstrate the successful synthesis.The novel catalyst shows extraordinary bifunctional ORR/OER activities with a fairly low potential difference(ΔE=0.621 V)between the OER overpotential(Ej10=315 mV at 10 m A cm^(-2))and the ORR half-wave potential(Ehalf-wave=0.924 V).Moreover,the above catalyst shows excellent ZAB performance,with an outstanding specific capacity(786 mAh g^(-1)),noteworthy maximum power density(139 mW cm^(-2)),and extraordinary rechargeability(discharged and charged at 5 mA cm^(-2) for more than 1000 h).Theoretical calculations reveal the vital importance of the preferable synergetic coupling effect between adjacent active sites in the Fe-Co-Ni trimetallic single-atomic sites during the ORR/OER processes.This study provides a new avenue for the investigation of bifunctional electrocatalysts with atomically dispersed trimetallic sites,which is intended for enhancing the ORR/OER performance in ZABs.
文摘Directional design of efficient catalysts for volatile organic compounds degradation remains a complex,yet effective and challenging process.Herein,oxygen-rich vacancy Co_(3)O_(4)-anchored Pt catalysts were prepared through atom-trapping strategy and relevant vacancy defect inductive effect was proposed.The 0.6Pt/VO-Co_(3)O_(4)catalyst presented a reaction rate value of 32.2×10^(-5)mol·g_(cat)^(-1)·s^(-1)at 160℃for catalytic propane total oxidation,which was nearly 5 times the reaction rate of Co_(3)O_(4)(6.7×10^(-5)mol·g_(cat)^(-1)·s^(-1)).Also,it exhibited excellent water-resistance and catalytic stability.The Pt atoms were stabilized on the Co_(3)O_(4)surface by vacancy defects to improve dispersion.Meanwhile,the vacancy defect inductive effect induced stronger electron interaction between Pt and Co_(3)O_(4)on the surface,thus promote the redox ability at low-temperature.The mobility and oxygen-activating ability of surface lattice oxygen were also strengthened by the vacancy defect inductive effect.This facilitated the generation of more surface-active oxygen species for the cleavage of C-H bond and the deep oxidation of intermediate species.Overall,this study proposed a novel concept the fabrication of highly efficient catalysts for the purpose of catalytic oxidation.
文摘Volatile organic compounds(VOCs)can cause atmospheric environmental problems such as haze and photochemical smog,which seriously restrict the sustainable development of the environment and threaten human health.Effective and comprehensive implementation of VOC prevention is an arduous task.Catalytic oxidation can achieve VOC removal with low energy costs and high efficiency.This review presents representative research progress in thermal or photothermal catalysis over the past ten years,concentrating on various catalysts with distinctive morphologies and structures designed and prepared for investigating single-or multi-component VOC purification,synergetic elimination of VOCs and NO_(x),and VOCs resource utilization.Furthermore,the influence mechanisms of H_(2)O,CO_(2),and SO_(2)on the catalytic stability are summarized.The activity and stability of the catalysts affect their lifespan and cost of use.In particular,for supported noble-metal catalysts with poor stability,some unique design strategies have been summarized for the efficient removal of VOCs while balancing low noble-metal usage and optimized catalytic performance.Finally,the scientific problems and future research directions are presented.Coordinated treatment of atmospheric pollutants and greenhouse gases should be considered.This study is expected to provide profound insights into the design of catalysts with high activity,selectivity,and stability,as well as air pollution control via catalytic methods.

文摘Similar to other metallic materials,duplex stainless steel dramatically loses its advantage of high ductility as they are strengthened.Here,we produce a gradient nanograined dual-phase structure in the 2101 duplex stainless steel,thus facilitating a superior strength-ductility synergy:a yield strength of 1009.5 MPa being two times higher than that of the as-received sample,a total elongation of 23.4%and a uniform elongation of 5.9%.This novel structure is produced through a processing route of ultrasonic severe surface rolling and annealing,which realizes a superposition of gradient nanostructure and lamellar dual-phase structure with austenite and ferrite.During the tension deformation of gradi-ent nanograined dual-phase structured duplex stainless steel,a significant accumulation of geometrically necessary dislocations occurs.These dislocations are formed to accommodate the deformation incompat-ibility caused by the layer-by-layer difference in strength and hardness of individual phase domains,as well as the inherent difference in properties between the austenite and ferrite domains.This results in a stronger hetero-deformation induced strengthening and hardening significantly contributing to superior mechanical properties.Our study provides a new avenue to develop advanced steels with high strength and ductility.

文摘The exploration of sustainable energy utilization requires the imple-mentation of advanced electrochemical devices for efficient energy conversion and storage,which are enabled by the usage of cost-effective,high-performance electro-catalysts.Currently,heterogeneous atomically dispersed catalysts are considered as potential candidates for a wide range of applications.Compared to conventional cata-lysts,atomically dispersed metal atoms in carbon-based catalysts have more unsatu-rated coordination sites,quantum size effect,and strong metal-support interactions,resulting in exceptional catalytic activity.Of these,dual-atomic catalysts(DACs)have attracted extensive attention due to the additional synergistic effect between two adja-cent metal atoms.DACs have the advantages of full active site exposure,high selectiv-ity,theoretical 100%atom utilization,and the ability to break the scaling relationship of adsorption free energy on active sites.In this review,we summarize recent research advancement of DACs,which includes(1)the comprehensive understanding of the synergy between atomic pairs;(2)the synthesis of DACs;(3)characterization meth-ods,especially aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy and synchrotron spectroscopy;and(4)electrochemical energy-related applications.The last part focuses on great potential for the electrochemical catalysis of energy-related small molecules,such as oxygen reduction reaction,CO_(2) reduction reaction,hydrogen evolution reaction,and N_(2) reduction reaction.The future research challenges and opportunities are also raised in prospective section.

文摘Due to the limitations of conventional chemotherapy including side effects,poor prognosis,and drug resistance,there is an urgent need for the development of a novel multi-functional combined therapy strategy.Dopamine-modified oxaliplatin prodrug(OXA-DA)was successfully synthesized in this study to ameliorate the organ distribution of oxaliplatin for improving the drug efficacy and reducing toxic side effects,and OXA-DA was applied to develop a porous oxaliplatin cross-linked polydopamine nanoparticle for loading siPD-L1 to construct multifunctional nanoplatform.The multifunctional nanoplatform was modified with poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)(PEOz),which occurred charge reversal in the tumor microenvironment,and exerted the lysosomal escape effect in tumor cells to improve the bioavailability of small interfering RNA targeting programmed cell death-ligand 1(siPD-L1).The pH-responsive charge reversal,photothermal,biodegradation,lysosomal escape ability,PD-L1 protein degradation,toxicity properties and multiple antitumor effects were comprehensively evaluated in vitro and in vivo experiments.The findings indicated that OXA-DA-siPD-L1@PDA-PEOz excellently induced tumor cell necrosis and apoptosis as a result of the synergistic effect of chemo-photothermal therapy,and upregulated CD8+T cells produced interferon-γ(IFN-γ)to further attack the tumor cells.In conclusion,the novel nanoplatform-mediated chemo/photothermal/immunotherapy has promising clinical applications in the treatment of malignant tumors.
