To explore the reaction laws of hydrogenated aromatics in hydrotreated oil, the catalytic cracking reaction laws of hydrogenated aromatics have been reviewed by taking tetralin and decalin as examples of different degrees of hydrogenated aromatics. Moreover, the reaction mechanism of tetralin and decalin has been analyzed emphatically. The effects of zeolite pore structure, acid properties and process parameters on reaction laws have been analyzed carefully. It is considered that the catalytic cracking performance of hydrogenated aromatics with different hydrogen saturation degrees is quite different. It is necessary to control the hydrogenation depth, optimize the hydrocarbon composition of catalytic cracking feed materials for maximizing the yield of target products.展开更多
Ultrastable Y zeolite（USY）-supported Pt catalyst was prepared by gas-bubbling-assisted membrane reduction. The influence of reaction conditions and the metal and acid sites of catalysts on the catalytic performance ...Ultrastable Y zeolite（USY）-supported Pt catalyst was prepared by gas-bubbling-assisted membrane reduction. The influence of reaction conditions and the metal and acid sites of catalysts on the catalytic performance of catalyst in hydrogenation and selective ring opening of tetralin, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene（THN）, was studied. It was found that the optimal reaction conditions were at a temperature of 280 °C, hydrogen pressure of 4 MPa, liquid hourly space velocity of 2 h^-1 and H2/THN ratio of 750. Under these optimal conditions, a high conversion of almost 100% was achieved on the 0.3 Pt/USY catalyst. XRD patterns and TEM images revealed that Pt particles were highly dispersed on the USY, favorable to the hydrogenation reaction of tetralin. Ammonia temperature-programmed desorption and Py-IR results indicated that the introduction of Pt can reduce the acid sites of USY, particularly the strong acid sites of USY. Thus, the hydrocracking reaction can be suppressed.展开更多

In accordance with the Marmarou method, rat models of diffuse axonal injury were established. 8-OH-DPAT was intraperitoneally injected into model rats. 8-OH-DPAT treated rats maintained at constant temperature served as normal temperature controls TUNEL results revealed that neural cell swelling, brain tissue necrosis and cell apoptosis occurred around the injured tissue. Moreover, the number of Bax-, Bcl-2- and caspase-3-positive cells increased at 6 hours after diffuse axonal injury, and peaked at 24 hours. However, brain injury was attenuated, the number of apoptotic cells reduced, Bax and caspase-3 expression decreased, and Bcl-2 expression increased at 6, 12, 24, 72 and 168 hours after diffuse axonal injury in normal temperature control and in 8-OH-DPAT-intervention rats. The difference was most significant at 24 hours. All indices in 8-OH-DPAT-intervention rats were better than those in the constant temperature group. These results suggest that 8-OH-DPAT inhibits Bax and caspase-3 expression, increases Bcl-2 expression, and reduces neural cell apoptosis, resulting in neuroprotection against diffuse axonal injury. This effect is associated with a decrease in brain temperature.展开更多

The results showed that all of target compounds had potent antifungal activities, and were stronger than that of control compounds tetrahydroisoquinolines. The binding model of lead molecules in the active site of CYP51 of Candida albicans showed that lead compound specifically interacted with the amino acids residues in the active site, without binding with the heme of CYP51, which was different from azole antifungal drugs. The present study might afford a novel lead molecule to develop non-azole CYP51 inhihitars of fungi.展开更多

A one-step synthesized Ni-Mo-S catalyst supported on SiO2 was prepared and used for hydrodesulphurization （HDS） of dibenzothiophene （DBT）, and 4,6-dimethyl-dibenzothiophene （4,6-DMDBT）, and for hydrogenation of ...A one-step synthesized Ni-Mo-S catalyst supported on SiO2 was prepared and used for hydrodesulphurization （HDS） of dibenzothiophene （DBT）, and 4,6-dimethyl-dibenzothiophene （4,6-DMDBT）, and for hydrogenation of tetralin. The catalyst showed relatively high HDS activity with complete conversion of DBT and 4,6-DMDBT at temperature of 280℃ and a constant pressure of 435 psi. The HDS conversions of DBT and 4,6- DMDBT increased with increasing temperature and pressure, and decreasing liquid hourly space velocity （LHSV）. The HDS of DBT proceeded mostly through the direct desulphurization （DDS） pathway whereas that of 4,6-DMDBT occurred mainly through the hydrogenation- desulphurization （HYD） pathway. Although the catalyst showed up to 24% hydrogenation/dehydrogenation con- version oftetralin, it had low conversion and selectivity for ring opening and contraction due to the competitive adsorption of DBT and 4,6-DMDBT and insufficient acidic sites on the catalyst surface.展开更多
