The microbeads were fabricated by ionotropic gelation with cations such as Al3+, Ca2+ and Zn2+. The results showed that using zinc acetate can produce the strongest microbeads with spherical shape.However, the microbeads prepared from thiolated pectin–DOX conjugate were very soft and irregular in shape. To produce more spherical microbeads with suitable strength, the native pectin was then added to the formulations. The particle size of the microbeads ranged from 0.87 to 1.14 mm. The morphology of the microbeads was characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. DOX was still in crystalline form when used in preparing the microbeads, as confirmed by powder X-ray diffractometry. Drug release profiles showed that the microbeads containing thiolated pectin–DOX conjugate exhibited reduction-responsive character;in reducing environments, the thiolated pectin–DOX conjugate could uncouple resulting from a cleavage of the disulfide linkers and consequently release the DOX. The best-fit release kinetics of the microbeads containing thiolated pectin–DOX conjugate, in the medium without reducing agent, fit the Korsmeyer–Peppas model while those in the medium with reducing agent fit a zero-order release model. These results suggested that the microbeads containing thiolated pectin–DOX conjugate may be a promising platform for cancer-targeted delivery of DOX, exploiting the reducing environment typically found in tumors.展开更多

Structural determination on such "magic size" nanoclusters revealed a variety of unique structures such as decahedron, icosahedron, as well as hexagonal close packing(hcp) and body-centered cubic(bcc) packing arrangements in gold nanoclusters, which are largely different from the face-centered cubic(fcc) structure in conventional gold nanoparticles. The characteristic geometrical structures enable the nanoclusters to exhibit interesting properties, and these properties are in close correlation with their atomic structures according to the recent studies. Experimental and theoretical analyses have been applied in the structural identification aiming to clarify the universal principle in the structural evolution of nanoclusters. In this mini-review, we summarize recent studies on periodic structural evolution of fcc-based gold nanoclusters protected by thiolates. A series of nanoclusters exhibit one-dimensional growth along the [001] direction in a layer-by-layer manner from Au_(23)(TBBT)_(20) to Au_(36)(TBBT)_(24),Au_(44)(TBBT)_(28), and to Au_(52)(TBBT)_(32)(TBBT: 4-tert-butylbenzenethiolate). The optical properties of these nanoclusters also evolve periodically based on steady-state and ultrafast spectroscopy. In addition, two-dimensional growth from Au_(44)(TBBT)_(28) toward both [100] and [010] directions leads to the Au_(92)(TBBT)_(44) nanocluster, and the recently reported Au_(52)(PET)_(32)(PET: 2-phenylethanethiol) also follows this growth pattern with partial removal of the layer. Theoretical predictions of relevant fcc nanoclusters include Au_(60)(SCH_3)_(36), Au_(68)(SCH_3)_(40), Au_(76)(SCH_3)_(44), etc, for the continuation of 1 D growth pattern, as well as Au_(68)(SR)_(38)mediating the 2 D growth pattern from Au_(44)(TBBT)_(28) to Au_(92)(TBBT)_(44). Overall, this mini-review provides guidelines on the rules of structural evolution of fcc gold nanoclusters based on 1 D, 2 D and 3 D growth patterns.展开更多

One of the important properties of pectin is its bioadhesive properties. Native pectin provides fair bioadhesive properties that can be improved by modification of pectin structure. The immobilization of thiol groups on polymer can significantly improve the bioadhesive properties due to in situ cross-linking between thiol groups of polymer and mucin [1].展开更多

Its thermal stability was measured by heat-aging oven test when incorporated into PVC. ATS was synthesized from stearic acid, antimony trioxide and 2-mercaptoethanol in two steps. The reaction conditions of synthesis were optimized through orthogonal test. Experimental results show that the molar ratio of stearic acid and antimony tris (2-hydroxyethylthiolate) was 1.2, adding 0.6%tetra-n-butyl titanate as catalyst and xylene as azeotropic solvent, heating and refluxing for about 4 h, and the yield of ATS is 83.9%. The thermal stability time is about 40 min(at 200 °C) when added 2phr(per hundred resin) in PVC. The thermal stability of ATS is better than that of Ca-Zn complex and basic lead stabilizers, and equal to that of dibutyltin dilaurate.展开更多

The complexes have been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and characterized by IR, UV-Vis, ^1H NMR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. They contain a butterfly Fe2S2 core with the Fe1–Fe2 distances of 2.5237（7）A in 1 and 2.5125（12）A in 2, falling in the normal range of Fe–Fe bond length（2.49 - 2.57 A）. The cyclic voltammetry has been used to investigate the electrochemical properties and the electrocatalytic proton reduction for 1 and 2. The complexes display reduction peaks at –1.074 V, –1.535 V（1） and –0.869 V, –1.247 V（2） vs. Fc/Fc^＋, respectively. With using p-Ts OH acid of different concentration, the reduction peak of complex 2 grows non-linear; on the contrary, that of complex 1 is linear with the addition of the acid. Cyclic voltammetry revealed the two complexes are good catalysts in the CH3CN/NBu4PF6 solution.展开更多

文摘Recent progress in the research of atomically-precise metal nanoclusters has identified a series of exceptionally stable nanoclusters with specific chemical compositions. Structural determination on such "magic size" nanoclusters revealed a variety of unique structures such as decahedron, icosahedron, as well as hexagonal close packing(hcp) and body-centered cubic(bcc) packing arrangements in gold nanoclusters, which are largely different from the face-centered cubic(fcc) structure in conventional gold nanoparticles. The characteristic geometrical structures enable the nanoclusters to exhibit interesting properties, and these properties are in close correlation with their atomic structures according to the recent studies. Experimental and theoretical analyses have been applied in the structural identification aiming to clarify the universal principle in the structural evolution of nanoclusters. In this mini-review, we summarize recent studies on periodic structural evolution of fcc-based gold nanoclusters protected by thiolates. A series of nanoclusters exhibit one-dimensional growth along the [001] direction in a layer-by-layer manner from Au_(23)(TBBT)_(20) to Au_(36)(TBBT)_(24),Au_(44)(TBBT)_(28), and to Au_(52)(TBBT)_(32)(TBBT: 4-tert-butylbenzenethiolate). The optical properties of these nanoclusters also evolve periodically based on steady-state and ultrafast spectroscopy. In addition, two-dimensional growth from Au_(44)(TBBT)_(28) toward both [100] and [010] directions leads to the Au_(92)(TBBT)_(44) nanocluster, and the recently reported Au_(52)(PET)_(32)(PET: 2-phenylethanethiol) also follows this growth pattern with partial removal of the layer. Theoretical predictions of relevant fcc nanoclusters include Au_(60)(SCH_3)_(36), Au_(68)(SCH_3)_(40), Au_(76)(SCH_3)_(44), etc, for the continuation of 1 D growth pattern, as well as Au_(68)(SR)_(38)mediating the 2 D growth pattern from Au_(44)(TBBT)_(28) to Au_(92)(TBBT)_(44). Overall, this mini-review provides guidelines on the rules of structural evolution of fcc gold nanoclusters based on 1 D, 2 D and 3 D growth patterns.
文摘The insertion reaction of phenyl isothiocyanate into the Ln S bond was studied. Phenyl isothiocyanate reacted with [(CH 3C 5H 4) 2Sm(SPh)(THF)] 2 to give the title complex, (CH 3C 5H 4) 2Sm[SC(SPh)NPh](THF), in good yield, which was characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR and X ray structural determination. The crystal structure analysis of complex shows that samarium atom is coordinated by two CH 3C 5H 4 groups, one O atom of THF, and N and S atoms from the SC(SPh)NPh ligand to form a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry.
文摘Pectin is a biopolymer that has numerous useful purposes in food and beverage industry, cosmetic products and pharmaceutical fields. One of the important properties of pectin is its bioadhesive properties. Native pectin provides fair bioadhesive properties that can be improved by modification of pectin structure. The immobilization of thiol groups on polymer can significantly improve the bioadhesive properties due to in situ cross-linking between thiol groups of polymer and mucin [1].
文摘A novel type of thermal stabilizer-antimony tris (thioethyl stearate) (ATS) was synthsized. Its thermal stability was measured by heat-aging oven test when incorporated into PVC. ATS was synthesized from stearic acid, antimony trioxide and 2-mercaptoethanol in two steps. The reaction conditions of synthesis were optimized through orthogonal test. Experimental results show that the molar ratio of stearic acid and antimony tris (2-hydroxyethylthiolate) was 1.2, adding 0.6%tetra-n-butyl titanate as catalyst and xylene as azeotropic solvent, heating and refluxing for about 4 h, and the yield of ATS is 83.9%. The thermal stability time is about 40 min(at 200 °C) when added 2phr(per hundred resin) in PVC. The thermal stability of ATS is better than that of Ca-Zn complex and basic lead stabilizers, and equal to that of dibutyltin dilaurate.

文摘Two diiron dithiolate complexes [Fe2（CO）6（1,8-S2-2-CH2OOCPhC（10）H5）] 1 and[Fe2（CO）6（1,8-S2-2-CH2OOCPh-4-NO2C（10）H5）]2 were synthesized in high yield. The complexes have been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and characterized by IR, UV-Vis, ^1H NMR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. They contain a butterfly Fe2S2 core with the Fe1–Fe2 distances of 2.5237（7）A in 1 and 2.5125（12）A in 2, falling in the normal range of Fe–Fe bond length（2.49 - 2.57 A）. The cyclic voltammetry has been used to investigate the electrochemical properties and the electrocatalytic proton reduction for 1 and 2. The complexes display reduction peaks at –1.074 V, –1.535 V（1） and –0.869 V, –1.247 V（2） vs. Fc/Fc^＋, respectively. With using p-Ts OH acid of different concentration, the reduction peak of complex 2 grows non-linear; on the contrary, that of complex 1 is linear with the addition of the acid. Cyclic voltammetry revealed the two complexes are good catalysts in the CH3CN/NBu4PF6 solution.

文摘Based on their well-defined atomic structures,chiral clusters can be utilized to describe the origin of nanomaterial-like chirality,laying the foundation for the application of chiral materials.However,their chiral application is limited owing to chiral phosphines,amines,and carboxylic acids forming protected clusters with weak chiral stability,while thiol-protected clusters are stable;however,there are relatively few types of chiral thiols available yet,and they have a high price.In this study,chiral camphor thiols were designed and prepared from natural products.Based on the novel chiral thiol ligands,a pair of novel R/S-Au_(19)(SR)_(13)DPPM chiral clusters were obtained.Their structural anatomies showed that their chiral origins were diverse and their core distortion was more significant compared with their counterparts.Subsequent stability tests showed that both of these were stable in thermal,alkaline,and reducing environments,thus offering a solid foundation for their application in the corresponding environments.Importantly,the chiral thiol ligands designed in this study could provide new opportunities for the preparation of stable chiral nanoclusters and their applications.

文摘Fruitful efforts have been made for the assembly of nanosized silver clusters,and the majority of which are protected by thiolates and alkynyl ligands.By comparison,the reported silver clusters or silvercluster-based supramolecular networks protected by N-donor ligands are very rare because of the hard basicity of N-donor ligands with respect to the soft acid Ag(Ⅰ).Here,by using an N-donor ligand,a 2D Cl@Ag_(11)N_(24)-based supramolecular network[Cl@Ag_(11)(L)_(8)X_(2)]_(n)(X=CF_(3)COO^(-)for 1,NO_(3)^(-)for 2 and CF_(3)SO_(3)^(-)for 3)has been constructed with a Ag-O bond as the linker.This high-nuclearity silver cluster Cl@Ag_(11)N_(24) has an open dendritic structure with a high coordination ratio of the N atom,which is different from the well-established macrocycle,spheroidal cage and core-shell architectures based on silver-thiolate/alkynyl/phosphine clusters.The stability and assembly process of the 2D network has been studied by high-resolution electrospray mass spectrometry(HR-ESI-MS).Notably,1 shows an intriguing dual-emission feature that is strongly influenced by different excitation wavelengths and temperatures.Significantly,this work sheds new light on the construction of novel silver clusters and supramolecular networks based on them and provides a kind of luminescent material.

文摘In this paper,the synthesis of gold(I)-calix[8]arene complexes from benzyloxycalix[8]arene used as a starting material is reported.8 or 16 trimethylphosphine-gold(I)are grafted to the calix[8]arene via a C_(4)alkane chain linker and a thiolate group.The formed gold(I)-complexes are studied by NMR spectroscopy.It is also shown that these complexes can act as both source of metal and stabilizing agent for the formation of gold nanoparticles as the radiolytic reduction of these complexes produces small monodisperse nanoparticles.
