Separation Properties of a New Polysiloxane-Anchored β-Cyclodextrin Derivative as Gas Chromatography Stationary Phase

A new capillary gas chromatography stationary phase, monokis (2,6 di O benzyl 3 O propyl (3’)) hexakis(2,6 di O benzyl 3 O methyl) β CD bonded polysiloxane, was synthesized. It exhibited separation abilities to disubstituted benzene isomers and some chiral solutes. It was also found that the polarity of CD derivatives can be lowered both by chemically bonding it to polysiloxane and by diluting it in polysiloxane. The separation abilities of the polysiloxane anchored CDs (SP CD) are higher than that of the unbonded CDs (S CD) and the diluted S CD at lower column temperature. Hydrosilylation reaction is one of the best methods to lower the operating temperature of CDs.

Recent developments in visible-light photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics

With the significant discharge of antibiotic wastewater into the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, antibiotic pollution has become a serious problem and presents a hazardous risk to the environment. To address such issues, various investigations on the removal of antibiotics have been undertaken. Photocatalysis has received tremendous attention owing to its great potential in removing antibiotics from aqueous solutions via a green, economic, and effective process. However, such a technology employing traditional photocatalysts suffers from major drawbacks such as light absorption being restricted to the UV spectrum only and fast charge recombination. To overcome these issues, considerable effort has been directed towards the development of advanced visible light-driven photocatalysts. This mini review summarises recent research progress in the state-of-the-art design and fabrication of photocatalysts with visible-light response for photocatalytic degradation of antibiotic wastewater. Such design strategies involve the doping of metal and non-metal into ultraviolet light-driven photocatalysts, development of new semiconductor photocatalysts, construction of heterojunction photocatalysts, and fabrication of surface plasmon resonance-enhanced photocatalytic systems. Additionally, some perspectives on the challenges and future developments in the area of photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics are provided.

A Bi/BiOI/(BiO)_2CO_3 heterostructure for enhanced photocatalytic NO removal under visible light

Narrow-band BiOI photocatalysts usually suffer from low photocatalysis efficiency under visible light exposure because of rapid charge recombination. In this work, to overcome this deficiency of photosensitive BiOI, oxygen vacancies, Bi particles, and Bi2O2CO3 were co-induced in BiOI via a facile in situ assembly method at room temperature using NaBH4 as the reducing agent. In the synthesized ternary Bi/BiOI/(BiO)2CO3, the oxygen vacancies, dual heterojunctions (i.e., Bi/BiOI and Bi- OI/(BiO)2CO3), and surface plasmon resonance effect of the Bi particles contributed to efficient electron-hole separation and an increase in charge carrier concentration, thus boosting the overall visible light photocatalysis efficiency. The as-prepared catalysts were applied for the removal of NO in concentrations of parts per billion from air in continuous air flow under visible light illumination. Bi/BiOI/(BiO)2CO3 exhibited a highly enhanced NO removal ratio of 50.7%, much higher than that of the pristine BiOI (1.2%). Density functional theory calculations and experimental results revealed that the Bi/BiOI/(BiO)2CO3 composites promoted the production of reactive oxygen species for photocatalytic NO oxidation. Thus, this work provides a new strategy to modify narrow-band semiconductors and explore other bismuth-containing heterostructured visible-light-driven photocatalysts.

UV-VIS-NIR-induced extraordinary H2 evolution over W_(18)O_(49)/Cd_(0.5)Zn_(0.5)S:Surface plasmon effect coupled with S-scheme charge transfer

In this work,a novel plasmon-assisted UV-vis-NIR-driven W_(18)O_(49)/Cd_(0.5)Zn_(0.5)S heterostructure photocatalyst was obtained by a facile ultrasonic-assisted electrostatic self-assembly strategy.The hybrid exhibits extraordinary H2 evolution activity of 147.7 mmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1) at room temperature due to the efficient charge separation and expanded light absorption.Our investigation shows that the unique Step-scheme(S-scheme)charge transfer and the‘hot electron’injection are both responsible for the extraordinary H2 evolution process,depending on the wavelength of the incident light.Moreover,by accelerating the surface reaction kinetics,the activity can be further elevated to 306.1 mmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1),accompanied by a high apparent quantum yield of 45.3% at 365±7.5 nm.This work provides us a potential strategy for the highly efficient conversion of the solar energy by elaborately combining a nonstoichiometric ratio plasmonic material with an appropriate active photocatalyst.

Purification and separation of durene by static melt crystallization

The purification and separation of durene from the mixture containing durene isomers were studied.Since the boiling points of tetramethyl benzene isomers are very close but their melting points are of great differences,static melt crystallization was applied to separate and purify durene from its isomers.Crystallization experiments were carried out under various operating conditions.The effects of cooling rate,crystallization temperature,sweating temperature and sweating time on the yield and purity of crystal were investigated.Orthogonal experimental design method was adopted to analyze the factors that may affect the yield of durene.Under the optimal crystallization conditions,the purity of durene could reach as high as 99.06%with the yield of 75.3%through one crystallization process.By fitting purification data based on sweating time in isothermal operations,the purification rate coefficient was obtained.

Preparation of insoluble β-CD polymer and its application to enantiomers and isomers separation

An insoluble β-cyclodextrin polymer cross-linked with epichlorohydrin was prepared, and its structure was identified with infrared spectrum. Colloid stationary phase was prepared by dissolving the polymer in the mixed solvent of diisopropyl ether, methylene dichloride and benzene and treated for 0.5 h by ultrasonication, and then was coated on a fused silica capillary column. The optimun reaction conditions are as follows: the mole ratio of epichlohydrin to β-cyclodextrin is 12.1:1, reacting at 65 °C for 24 h. The Chromatographic performance such as column efficiency, thermal stabilities and polarity were studied, two kinds of disubstituted benzene isomers and eight pairs of enantiomers were separated on the capillary column. The results show that the β-cyclodextrin polymer is suitable for use as a capillary gas chromatographic stationary phase, and possess excellent chromatographic properties in separating enantiomers and position isomers.

Plasmonic Field Enhancement for Vibration Spectroscopy at Metal/Water Interfaces

Electrochemical （EC） reactions play vital roles in many disciplines, and its molecular-level understanding is highly desired, in particular under reactions. The vibration spectroscopy is a powerful in situ technique for chemical analysis, yet its application to EC reactions is hindered by the strong attenuation of infrared （IR） light in both electrodes and electrolytes. Here we demonstrate that by incorporating appropriate sub-wavelength plasmonic structures at the metal electrode, the IR field at the EC interface can be greatly enhanced via the excitation of surface plasmon. This scheme facilitates in situ vibrational spectroscopic studies, especially using the surface-specific sum-frequency generation technique.

Structure of Protonated Heterodimer of Proline and Phenylalanine:Revealed by Infrared Multiphoton Dissociation Spectroscopy and Theoretical Calculations

The infrared multiphoton dissociation(IRMPD)spectrum of the protonated heterodimer of Pro Phe H+,in the range of 2700-3700 cm^-1,has been obtained with a Fourier-transform ion cyclotron mass spectrometer combined with an IR OPO laser.The experimental spectrum shows one peak at 3565 cm^-1 corresponding to the free carboxyl O-H stretching vibration,and two broad peaks centered at 2935 and 3195 cm^-1.Theoretical calculations were performed on the level of M062 X/6-311++G(d,p).Results show that the most stable isomer is characterized by a charge-solvated structure in which the proton is bound to the unit of proline.Its predicted spectrum is in good agreement with the experimental one,although the coexistence of salt-bridged structures cannot be entirely excluded.

Aromaticity of Heterofullerenes C18BxNy （x＋y=2） and Their Molecular lons

The aromaticity of all possible substituted fullerene isomers of C18N2, C18B2, C18BN, and their molecular ions which originate from the C20 （Ih） cage were studied by the topological resonance energy （TRE） and the percentage topological resonance energy methods. The relationship between the aromaticity of C18BxNy isomers and the sites where the heteroatoms dope at the C20 （Ih） cage is discussed. Calculation results show that at the neutral and cationic states all the isomers are predicted to be antiaromatic with negative TREs, but their polyvalent anions are predicted to be aromatic with positive TREs. The most stable isomer is formed by heteroatom doping at the 1,11-sites in C18N2. C18B2, and C18BN. Heterofullerenes are more aromatic than C20. The stability order in the neutral states is C18N2〉C18BN〉C18B2〉C20. The stability order in closed-shell is C18B2^8- 〉C20^6- 〉C18BN^6- 〉C18N2^4-. This predicts theoretically that their polyvalent anions have high aromaticity.

Research progress in ionic liquids catalyzed isobutane/butene alkylation

The complicated reaction mechanism and the character of competitive reactions lead to a stringent requirement for the catalyst of C_4 alkylation process. Due to their unique properties, ionic liquids(ILs) are thought to be new potential acid catalysts for C_4 alkylation. An analysis of the regular and modified chloroaluminate ILs, novel Br?nsted ILs and composite ILs used in isobutane/butene alkylation shows that the use of either ILs or ILs coupled with mineral acid as homogeneous catalysts can help to greatly adjust the acid strength. By modifying the structural parameters of the cations and anions of the ILs, the solubility of the reactants could also be adjusted, which in turn displays a positive effect on improving the activity of ILs. Immobilization of ILs is an effective way to modulate the surface adsorption/desorption properties and acid strength distribution of the solid acid catalysts. Such a process has a tremendous potential to reduce the deactivation of catalyst and enhance the activity of the solid acid catalyst. The development of novel acid catalysts for C_4 alkylation is a comprehensive consideration of acid strength and its distribution, interfacial properties and transport characteristics.

Synthesis of isosorbide-based polycarbonates via melt polycondensation catalyzed by quaternary ammonium ionic liquids

A series of quaternary ammonium ionic liquids(ILs)were synthesized and employed as catalysts for the production of poly(isosorbide carbonate)(PIC)from diphenyl carbonate and isosorbide via a melt polycondensation process.The relationship between the anions of the ILs and the catalytic activities was investigated,and the readily‐prepared IL tetraethylammonium imidazolate(TEAI)was found to exhibit the highest catalytic activity.After optimizing the reaction conditions,a PIC with a weight‐average molecular weight(Mw)of25600g/mol was obtained,in conjunction with an isosorbide conversion of92%.As a means of modifying the molecular flexibility and thermal properties of the PIC,poly(aliphatic diol‐co‐isosorbide carbonate)s(PAIC)s were successfully synthesized,again using TEAI,and polymers with Mw values ranging from29000to112000g/mol were obtained.13C NMR analyses determined that the PAIC specimens had random microstructures,while differential scanning calorimetry demonstrated that each of the PAICs were amorphous and had glass transition temperatures ranging from50to115°C.Thermogravimetric analyses found Td‐5%values ranging from316to332°C for these polymers.Based on these data,it is evident that the incorporation of linear or cyclohexane‐based diol repeating units changed the thermal properties of the PIC.

MIL-125 is a metal-organic framework with great potential for the adsorption and separation of xylene isomers.However,MIL-125 is usually synthesized under anhydrous and anaerobic conditions.In this study,homogeneously shaped and highly crystalline MIL-125 was synthesized by introducing water-resistant titanium-containing oligomers into the synthesis process.With the assistance of the novel oligomers,MIL-125 can be synthesized in the presence of water,which meets batch-production requirements.The adsorption separation performance of the obtained highly crystalline MIL-125 was also significantly enhanced.The para-xylene/meta-xylene selectivity can reach 13.5 in mesitylene,which is higher than the selectivity values of most previously reported para-selective adsorbents.The MIL-125 xylene separation performance was verified using both batch adsorption and breakthrough experiments in the liquid phase.In addition,the influence of the solvent effect was evaluated through microcalorimetric experiments,liquid-phase adsorption experiments,and theoretical calculations.

Influence of monovalent alkaline metal cations on binder-free nano-zeolite X inpara-xylene separation

The adsorption process was studied for separating para-xylene from xylene mixture on modified nano-zeolite X in a breakthrough system. Nano-zeolitic adsorbent with different ratios of Si O2/Al2O3 was synthesized through hydrothermal process and ion-exchanged with alkaline metal cations like lithium, sodium and potassium. The product was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), nitrogen adsorption,transform electron microscopy(TEM) and in situ Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy. The influence of nano-zeolite water content and desorbent type on the selectivity of para-xylene toward other C8 aromatic isomers was studied. The optimization of adsorption process was also investigated under variable operation conditions. The isotherm for each isomer of C8 aromatics and the desorbents possess the adsorption characteristics of Langmuir type. The selectivity factor of para-xylene relative to each of meta-xylene, ortho-xylene and ethylbenzene under the optimum conditions obtained to be 5.36, 2.43 and 3.22, in the order given.

Fast weighting method for plasma PIC simulation on GPU-accelerated heterogeneous systems

Particle-in-cell (PIC) method has got much benefits from GPU-accelerated heterogeneous systems.However,the performance of PIC is constrained by the interpolation operations in the weighting process on GPU (graphic processing unit).Aiming at this problem,a fast weighting method for PIC simulation on GPU-accelerated systems was proposed to avoid the atomic memory operations during the weighting process.The method was implemented by taking advantage of GPU's thread synchronization mechanism and dividing the problem space properly.Moreover,software managed shared memory on the GPU was employed to buffer the intermediate data.The experimental results show that the method achieves speedups up to 3.5 times compared to previous works,and runs 20.08 times faster on one NVIDIA Tesla M2090 GPU compared to a single core of Intel Xeon X5670 CPU.

Separation and identification of cis and trans isomers of 2-butene-1,4-diol and lafutidine by HPLC and LC-MS

The cis and trans isomers separation of 2-butene-1,4-diol and lafutidine were studied by HPLC on two kinds of chiral columns: (S,S)-Whelk-O 1 and ChiraSpher. The isomers of 2-butene-1,4-diol can be separated on both chiral columns while the isomers of lafutidine can only be resolved on ChiraSpher column. The influence of different type and amount of mobile phase modifier on the isomers separation was extensively studied. The resolution of cis and trans isomers of 2-butene-1,4-diol was 2.61on (S,S)-Whelk-O 1 column with hexane-ethanol (97:3, v/v) as the mobile phase. The resolution of lafutidine was 1.89 on ChiraSpher column with hexane-ethanol-THF-diethylamine (92:3:5:0.1, v/v/v/v) as the mobile phase. LC-MS methods were developed to identify the isomer peaks.

Noble-metal-free plasmonic MoO_(3-x)-based S-scheme heterojunction for photocatalytic dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol to storable H2 fuel and benzaldehyde

Simultaneous generation of H_(2) fuel and value-added chemicals has attracted increasing attention since the photogenerated electrons and holes can be both employed to convert solar light into chemical energy.Herein,for realizing UV-visible-NIR light driven dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol(BA)into benzaldehydes(BAD)and H_(2),a novel localized surface plasmon resonance(LSPR)enhanced S-scheme heterojunction was designed by combining noble-metal-free plasmon MoO_(3-x) as oxidation semiconductor and Zn_(0.1)Cd_(0.9)S as reduction semiconductor.The photoredox system of Zn_(0.1)Cd_(0.9)S/MoO_(3-x) displayed an unconventional reaction model,in which the BA served as both electron donor and acceptor.The S-scheme charge transfer mechanism induced by the formed internal electric field enhanced the redox ability of charge carriers thermodynamically and boosted charge separation kinetically.Moreover,due to the LSPR effect of MoO_(3-x) nanosheets,Zn_(0.1)Cd_(0.9)S/MoO_(3-x) photocatalysts exhibited strong absorption in the region of full solar spectrum.Therefore,the Zn_(0.1)Cd_(0.9)S/MoO_(3-x) composite generated H_(2) and BAD simultaneously via selective oxidation of BA with high production(34.38 and 33.83 mmol×g^(–1) for H_(2) and BAD,respectively)upon full solar illumination.Even under NIR light irradiation,the H_(2) production rate could up to 94.5 mmol×g^(–1)×h^(–1).In addition,the Zn_(0.1)Cd_(0.9)S/MoO_(3-x) composite displayed effective photocatalytic H_(2) evolution rate up to 149.2 mmol×g^(–1)×h^(–1) from water,which was approximate 6 times that of pure Zn_(0.1)Cd_(0.9)S.This work provides a reference for rational design of plasmonic S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts for coproduction of high-value chemicals and solar fuel production.
