The influencing factors of the acetalation reaction e.g. the reaction time, the volume of water-carrying agent,the molar ratio of catalyst to benzaldehyde and the molar ratio of glycol to benzaldehyde had been studied.The yield of benzaldehyde glycol acetal would reach a maximum of 81.3% under the conditions approached.Six of other acetals were also synthesized. Moreover, a plausible reaction mechanism for the formation of acetal had been proposed.展开更多

Three types of experiments were carried out. (1) IR spectra of the gas-phase propylene, benzene and isopropyl benzene were recorded. (2) IR spectra of the above-mentioned substances as adsorbates that have combined with the zeolite wafer were recorded. (3) IR spectra of the reaction modes were recorded. The test results showed that the alkytation reaction over the zeolite β was ascribed to the mechanism of carbonium ions, whereas the alkylation reaction over the zeolite MCM-22 was ascribed to the synchronous reaction mechanism.展开更多

The simulation results show that rationality of the RWMC model is proved on the basis of pulse experimental data. One of the most remarkable factors affecting catalytic behavior is the transfer of bulk lattice oxygen, which decides the rate of ammonia-consuming and propylene-consuming. The selectivity of main products reaches the maximum after the reduction of catalysts to a certain degree. It is inferred that catalytic performance improves greatly if the ratio of capacity for dehydrogenation from adsorbed propylene molecule on catalytically active site of molybdenum metal-imido group (Mo=NH) to that on catalytically active site of molybdenum metal-oxo group (Mo=O) becomes much higher.展开更多

The results indicate that vicinal diimines prefer stepwise [2+2] cycloaddition rather than [2+4] cycloaddition to generate cis-4-imino-β-lactams. The diimines attack the less sterically hindered exo-side of ketenes to generate zwitterionic intermediates, which directly undergo a conrota- tory ring closure to produce cis-4-imino-β-lactams whatever diimines with less or more bulky N-substituents. For unsymmetric vicinal ketoaldehyde-derived diimines, their ketimines attack the exo-side of ketenes and undergo a conrotatory ring closure to produce cis-4-aldimino-β-lactams due to less steric effect. The current theoretical studies provide very important information for in-depth understanding of the selective formation of mono-cis-β-lactams from vicinal diimines and ketenes.展开更多

We found that a twist between the upper and lower layers of the graphene BLGs, either big or small, interferes with the formation of inter-layer C-C covalent bonds and this leads to strong resistance to hydrogenation. In addition, the electronic properties of stable, hydrogenated twisted BLG with different twist angles and degrees of H coverage were investigated. This study paves the way to the selective functionalization of BLG for various applications.展开更多

文摘The effect of twist angle on the hydrogenation of bilayer graphene (BLG) is systematically explored by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We found that a twist between the upper and lower layers of the graphene BLGs, either big or small, interferes with the formation of inter-layer C-C covalent bonds and this leads to strong resistance to hydrogenation. In addition, the electronic properties of stable, hydrogenated twisted BLG with different twist angles and degrees of H coverage were investigated. This study paves the way to the selective functionalization of BLG for various applications.
