Precise modification of poly(aryl ether ketone sulfone)proton exchangemembranes with positively charged bismuth oxide clusters for high proton conduction performance

In the field of proton exchange membranes(PEMs),it is still a great challenge to explore new Nafion alternatives,maintaining the high proton conductivity and lowering the cost of practical application.In this work,a series of low sulfonated poly(aryl ether ketone sulfone)(SPAEKS)membranes hybridized by[Bi_(6)O_(5)(OH)_(3)]_(2)(NO_(3))10⋅6H_(2)O(H_(6)Bi_(12)O_(16))have been successfully fabricated.When the doping amount of H6Bi12O16 reaches 5 wt%,the DS15-Bi12-5 showing the best proton conductive ability and mechanical properties.The proton conductivity can achieve 72.8 mS⋅cm−1 at 80℃ and the tensile strength can reach 43.57 MPa.Confirmed by experimental data and activation energy(Ea)calculations,the existence of Bi cluster makes more hydrogen bonds,providing additional proton hopping sites and offers more proton transport vehicles,leading to a high proton conduction performance.This work proved that polyoxometalates(POMs)can replace the role of sulfonate groups in SPAEKS to a certain extent and work out the defects of high sulfonation,making a remarkable contribution to the practical application of low sulfonated SPAEKS.

Photoinduced and palladium-catalyzed hydrogen atom transfer triggered 1,2-difunctionalization of 1,3-dienes with hydroxamides

The discovery of novel catalysis modes to generate a significant increase in structural complexity from readily available reactants is a fundamental goal in modern organic synthesis.Here,we report a photoinduced palladium-catalyzed hydrogen atom transfer triggered 1,2-difunctionalization of conjugated dienes.Without the employment of exogeneous photosensitizers and external oxidants,the cascade reaction realized the integration of remote functionalization of various C(sp^(3))-H bonds and selective difunctionalization of 1,3-dienes with 100% atom efficiency,allowing for the synthesis of structurally diverse amides with up to 90% yields.Given the prevalence of amides in pharmaceuticals and natural products,the current protocol has provided an efficient means to access highly functionalized amides from readily available carboxylic acid derivatives and 1,3-dienes.
