The UV-Vis absorptions and photoluminescent properties of the ligand and its platinum complex were investigated. A characteristic metal-ligand charge transfer absorption peak at 439 nm in the UV spectrum and a strong emission peak at 625 nm in the photoluminescence spectrum were observed for this complex in dichloromethane. Cyclic voltammtry (CV) analysis shows that the EHOMO (energy level of the highest occupied molecular orbital) and ELUMO (energy level of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) of the platinum complex are about 、5.69 and 、3.25 eV, respectively, indicating that the oxadiazole-based platinum complex has a potential application in electrophosphorescent devices used as a red-emitting material.展开更多

The results show that the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of zirconia tube was very small and the Seebeck effect can be ignored after the sensor was dipped into liquid steel for more than 2 s. A special sensor was designed to test the relation between the EMF (electromotive force) of sensor and the thermal equilibrium state of the reference elec- trode. Based on these results, it is suggested that the peak in EMF curve was caused by the change of oxygen potential in reference electrode before the thermal equilibrium was reached. If NiO was added by 2 M- 5 M to the Cr/Cr2O3 reference electrode, the peak in EMF curve could be eliminated.展开更多

Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis revealed that both complexes 1 and 2 are 3D frameworks. Complex 1 is an 8-connected 2-fold interpenetrating network based on [Cu(2,5-pydc)]4 molecular building block(MBB), and also can be simplified as a 4-connected net if the Cu(Ⅱ) ion is regarded as an independent node, whereas 2 shows a(4,4)-connected non-interpenetrated framework which contains mixed valence Cu(Ⅰ/Ⅱ) centers. The results demonstrate that temperature plays a significant role in the final structures of the complexes.展开更多

Degradation of BPA was also evaluated for the system without adsorption prior to photocatalytic reaction. The separation of TiO2 from BPA solution treated by pilot-scale photocatalytic reactor (capacity 0.16 m^3) was studied using submerged ultrafiltration (UF) membrane. It was found that although adsorption capacity of BPA was not high, adsorption played an important role in improving the efficiency ofphotocatalysis. On the other hand, during the separation of TiO2 particles from aqueous suspension, the permeate flux of the membrane was strongly affected by transmembrane pressure and TiO2 dose. The permeate turbidity was decreased below 1 NTU.展开更多

Most of these compounds showed moderate to good activity toward wild-type HIV-1 strain with EC50values in the range of 0.18–51.88 μmol/L and SI values in the range of 4–907. The compound 14aj with a CHOH linker and compound 13i with a CHOTMS linker in this series exhibited improved anti-HIV-1 activity(EC50= 0.18 μmol/L, and 0.20 μmol/L) with higher selectivity(SI = 907, and 665) as comparison with the lead compound 6(EC50= 0.59 μmol/L, SI = 9). These two compounds 14aj and 13i were more sensitive than 6 toward clinically relevant mutant L100I, K103N and E138K viruses, which were further evaluated for their activity against wild-type reverse transcriptase and displayed a good correlation with the cell-based activity. Preliminary molecular modeling investigations provided insight for further structural optimization of HEPT.展开更多

The effects of explicit and implicit solvent molecules on the hydrolysis cleavage of N-Glycosidic bond in 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) have been systematically clarified in the present work based upon two types of computational models. Detailed potential energy surface (PES) scans and full unconstraint optimizations for all the representative points on PESs were carried out at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d) level of theory. The effect of implicit solvent was tested by single-point calculation at the SCRF/IEF-PCM model. The results illustrate that the direct hydrolysis model involving one explicit water molecule can’t provide a complete depiction of the hydrolysis process of 8-oxo-dG, attributed to the insufficiency of nucleophile activation and leaving group stabilization. The expansion hydrolysis model involving four explicit water molecules, however, facilitates discrete proton transfer and therefore produces smooth reaction surfaces for both the dissociative (SN1) and concerted (SN2) pathways. The presence of the implicit solvent substantially lowers all activation energies and the SN1 process is more favorable than the SN2 process. The data and insights present here agree well with the experimental results and have given out a baseline for the enzymatic deglycosylation reaction of 8-oxo-dG.展开更多

Method and Results: Plasma CAT, AOA, and GST activities were spectrophotometrically measured in forty patients (average age 10.27 ± 2.54) and thirty-five (average age, 9.97 ± 2.59) healthy individuals as the control group. While the CAT activity showed no difference in the patient group (P > 0.05) compared to the control group, AOA and GST levels were found significantly meaningful (P = 0.001). Conclusion: In this pilot study ,the study shows that no oxidative stress develops in individuals with ADHD in high AOA and stable CAT activity, and that the de- toxification mechanism functions extremely in high GST activity. These findings need to be supported by other studies.展开更多

A characteristic metal-ligand charge transfer absorption peak at 439 nm in the UV spectrum and a strong emission peak at 625 nm in the photoluminescence spectrum were observed for this complex in dichloromethane. Cyclic voltammtry (CV) analysis shows that the EHOMO (energy level of the highest occupied molecular orbital) and ELUMO (energy level of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) of the platinum complex are about 、5.69 and 、3.25 eV, respectively, indicating that the oxadiazole-based platinum complex has a potential application in electrophosphorescent devices used as a red-emitting material.

文摘Nafion as a universal polymer ionomer was widely applied for nanocatalysts electrode preparation.However,the effect of Nafion on electrocatalytic performance was often overlooked,especially for CO_(2)electrolysis.Herein,the key roles of Nafion for CO_(2)RR were systematically studied on Cu nanoparticles(NPs)electrocatalyst.We found that Nafion modifier not only inhibit hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)by decreasing the accessibility of H_(2)O from electrolyte to Cu NPs,and increase the CO_(2)concentration at electrocatalyst interface for enhancing the CO_(2)mass transfer process,but also activate CO_(2)molecule by Lewis acid-base interaction between Nafion and CO_(2)to accelerate the formation of^(*)CO,which favor of C–C coupling for boosting C_(2)product generation.Owing to these features,the HER selectivity was suppressed from 40.6%to 16.8%on optimal Cu@Nafion electrode at-1.2 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE),and as high as 73.5%faradaic efficiencies(FEs)of C_(2)products were achieved at the same applied potential,which was 2.6 times higher than that on bare Cu electrode(~28.3%).In addition,Nafion also contributed to the long-term stability by hinder Cu NPs morphology reconstruction.Thus,this work provides insights into the impact of Nafion on electrocatalytic CO_(2)RR performance.
文摘The thermal equilibrium state of the reference electrode was investigated. The results show that the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of zirconia tube was very small and the Seebeck effect can be ignored after the sensor was dipped into liquid steel for more than 2 s. A special sensor was designed to test the relation between the EMF (electromotive force) of sensor and the thermal equilibrium state of the reference elec- trode. Based on these results, it is suggested that the peak in EMF curve was caused by the change of oxygen potential in reference electrode before the thermal equilibrium was reached. If NiO was added by 2 M- 5 M to the Cr/Cr2O3 reference electrode, the peak in EMF curve could be eliminated.

文摘Two distinct copper coordination polymers, namely [Cu^Ⅱ2(2,5-pydc)2(bpp)2]·H2O(1) and Cu2^ⅠCu^Ⅱ(2,5-pydc)2(bpp)2(2)(2,5-pydc = pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid, bpp = 1,3-bi(4-pyridyl)propane), have been successfully synthesized through hydrothermal conditions under different temperatures. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis revealed that both complexes 1 and 2 are 3D frameworks. Complex 1 is an 8-connected 2-fold interpenetrating network based on [Cu(2,5-pydc)]4 molecular building block(MBB), and also can be simplified as a 4-connected net if the Cu(Ⅱ) ion is regarded as an independent node, whereas 2 shows a(4,4)-connected non-interpenetrated framework which contains mixed valence Cu(Ⅰ/Ⅱ) centers. The results demonstrate that temperature plays a significant role in the final structures of the complexes.

文摘A new 3D cobalt metal-organic framework [C_7H_(13)N_2]_2[(CH_3COO)_2Co_7(oba)_5-(Hoba)_2(OH)_2]·H_2O has been synthesized under ionothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, XRD, and TG. This complex crystallizes in monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 19.4499(4), b = 10.8839(2), c = 27.7796(5) ?, β = 104.467(2)o, V = 5694.22(19) ?~3, Z = 2, C_(116)H_(92)Co_7N_4O_(42), M_r = 2626.45, D_c = 1.532 g/cm^3 , F(000) = 2682, μ = 1.085 mm-1, R = 0.0387 and wR = 0.1177. Its structure is characterized as a 3D open framework constructed by seven nuclear clusters [(CH_3COO)_Co_7(OH)_2] and the 4,4?-oxybisbenzoic acid ligand. The used ILs cations are located in the middle of the pore and compensate for the negative charges of framework. Furthermore, its fluorescence property has also been studied.
文摘This study evaluates the adsorption ability ofbisphenol A(BPA) on titanium dioxide(TiO2) and its effect on the photocatalysis by advanced oxidation process using UV radiation and TiO2 photocatalyst. Degradation of BPA was also evaluated for the system without adsorption prior to photocatalytic reaction. The separation of TiO2 from BPA solution treated by pilot-scale photocatalytic reactor (capacity 0.16 m^3) was studied using submerged ultrafiltration (UF) membrane. It was found that although adsorption capacity of BPA was not high, adsorption played an important role in improving the efficiency ofphotocatalysis. On the other hand, during the separation of TiO2 particles from aqueous suspension, the permeate flux of the membrane was strongly affected by transmembrane pressure and TiO2 dose. The permeate turbidity was decreased below 1 NTU.

文摘A novel series of CHOR-HEPT non-nucleoside HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitors were developed by means of structure-based design strategy based on compound 6 reported previously by our group. Most of these compounds showed moderate to good activity toward wild-type HIV-1 strain with EC50values in the range of 0.18–51.88 μmol/L and SI values in the range of 4–907. The compound 14aj with a CHOH linker and compound 13i with a CHOTMS linker in this series exhibited improved anti-HIV-1 activity(EC50= 0.18 μmol/L, and 0.20 μmol/L) with higher selectivity(SI = 907, and 665) as comparison with the lead compound 6(EC50= 0.59 μmol/L, SI = 9). These two compounds 14aj and 13i were more sensitive than 6 toward clinically relevant mutant L100I, K103N and E138K viruses, which were further evaluated for their activity against wild-type reverse transcriptase and displayed a good correlation with the cell-based activity. Preliminary molecular modeling investigations provided insight for further structural optimization of HEPT.

文摘Two cationic iridium(Ⅲ) complexes, [(pqcm)2Ir(pybz)](PF6) (Ir1) and [(pqcm)2Ir(apybz)](PF6) (Ir2) (pqcmH = 2-phenyl-quinoline-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester, pybz = 2-pyridyl-benzimidazole, apybz = 1-allyl-2-pyridyl-benzimidazole), were readily synthesized from the reaction of IrⅢ-μ-chloro-bridged dimer [Ir(pqcm)2(Cl)]2 and corresponding ancillary ligands, and characterized by NMR and mass spectroscopies. The structure of It2 was also confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The photophysical properties of the two complexes were also investigated. Irl shows deep red emission peaked at around 652 nm with the phosphorescence quantum yield of ca. 0.29 and the emission lifetime of 233 ns, while Ir2 shows red emission peaked at around 615 nm with the phosphorescence quantum yield of ca. 0.13 and the emission lifetime of 430 ns. The active hydrogen on pybz ligand is believed to have a great influence on the photophysical properties of Ir1.

文摘8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG), a critical mutagenic DNA lesion induced by reactive oxy- gen species, gives rise to a G·C→T·A transversion during replication and thereby must be repaired. The effects of explicit and implicit solvent molecules on the hydrolysis cleavage of N-Glycosidic bond in 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) have been systematically clarified in the present work based upon two types of computational models. Detailed potential energy surface (PES) scans and full unconstraint optimizations for all the representative points on PESs were carried out at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d) level of theory. The effect of implicit solvent was tested by single-point calculation at the SCRF/IEF-PCM model. The results illustrate that the direct hydrolysis model involving one explicit water molecule can’t provide a complete depiction of the hydrolysis process of 8-oxo-dG, attributed to the insufficiency of nucleophile activation and leaving group stabilization. The expansion hydrolysis model involving four explicit water molecules, however, facilitates discrete proton transfer and therefore produces smooth reaction surfaces for both the dissociative (SN1) and concerted (SN2) pathways. The presence of the implicit solvent substantially lowers all activation energies and the SN1 process is more favorable than the SN2 process. The data and insights present here agree well with the experimental results and have given out a baseline for the enzymatic deglycosylation reaction of 8-oxo-dG.
文摘It has been introduced several ways for rising fuel burning rate. Using catalyzers is a common way to rising fuel burning rate. Cu-Chromite catalyzer used in solid fuels, as burning rate catalyzer in thermal decomposition of Ammonium Perchlorate and results were satisfying. This catalyzer is produced by several methods such as: ceramic, coprecipitating, sol-gel, vacuum depositioning, but this paper explains producing catalyzer by Citrate sol-gel. Thermal analysis is used for studying process also SEM, XRD, TEM, FTIR tests used for determination of particle sizes.
文摘This paper describes the study of cobalt growth mechanism obtained by electrodeposition method with variation of pH solution. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) results were possible conclude that the cobalt electrodeposited at pH = 5.40 presented approximately an area three times larger than the cobalt electrodeposited at pH = 2.70. In addition, the cobalt electrodeposited at pH = 2.70 had a value of charge transfer resistance equal to 151.6 f2"cm2 and the cobalt electrodeposited at pH = 5.40 this value corresponds to 67.4 f2'cm. This occurs because the increased in micro-porosity increase the diffusion of electrolyte on cobalt electrodeposits easily the corrosion process.
文摘Objective: In this study, we plan to measure plasma Catalase (CAT), Antioxidant Activity (AOA) and Glu- tathione-S-Transferase (GST) levels to understand whether oxidative stress develops or not and whether or not the detoxification mechanism properly functions in children with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with unknown etiology and pathogenesis. Method and Results: Plasma CAT, AOA, and GST activities were spectrophotometrically measured in forty patients (average age 10.27 ± 2.54) and thirty-five (average age, 9.97 ± 2.59) healthy individuals as the control group. While the CAT activity showed no difference in the patient group (P > 0.05) compared to the control group, AOA and GST levels were found significantly meaningful (P = 0.001). Conclusion: In this pilot study ,the study shows that no oxidative stress develops in individuals with ADHD in high AOA and stable CAT activity, and that the de- toxification mechanism functions extremely in high GST activity. These findings need to be supported by other studies.
