The as-obtained BiOBr was composed of regular multi-layered nanosheets, which were formed by selective adsorption of ionic liquids on the Br-terminated surface, followed by the formation of hydrogen bond-co-π-π stacking.The synthesized BiOBr exhibited high activity, excellent stability, and superior mineralization ability in the photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes under visible light owing to its enhanced light absorbance and narrow bandgap. Furthermore, photo-generated electrons were determined to be the main active species by comparison with different trapping agents used in the photocatalytic reactions.展开更多

Among them l-a-methysulphoferrocenyl ethyl acetate and l-a-methysulphoferrocenyl alcohol are found to be unexpected catalysts, which is first reported mediating in sulfur ylide epoxidation reactions, furnishing a novel approach for highly stereoselective synthesis of oxiranes with 98%-100% trans-isomer. The protocol also has excellent yield, convenient workup and recycled starting material. The reason of high trans-selectivity is due to the bulky ferrocenyl sulfide group, which stabilizes the intermediates and determines the trans priority. A possible catalytic mechanism is also proposed.展开更多

Here, we develop a facile electrochemical method to directly convert Pt wires to Pt concave icosahedra and nanocubes on carbon paper through the linear sweep voltammetry in a classic three-electrode electrochemical cell. The Pt wire, carbon paper and Ag/AgCl(3 mol L-1 KCl) are used as the counter, working and reference electrodes, respectively.Impressively, the formed Pt nanostructures exhibit better electrocatalytic activity towards the hydrogen evolution compared to the commercial Pt/C catalyst. This work provides a simple and effective way for direct conversion of Pt wires into well-defined Pt nanocrystals with clean surface. We believe it can also be used for preparation of other metal nanocrystals,such as Au and Pd, from their bulk materials, which could exhibit various promising applications.展开更多

The as-synthesized Pt supercubes are composed of the uniform Pt nanocubes arranged in a primitive cubic structure. The shape and size of the Pt superparticles are readily tuned by varying the structures of pyridyl-containing ligands used in the synthesis. The co-presence of CO and nitrogen-containing ligands is critical to the formation of Pt supercubes. While CO molecules play an important role in the synthesis of Pt nanocube, introducing nitrogen-containing ligands is essential to the successful assembly of those nanocubes into Pt supercubes. Our systematic studies reveal that the electrostatic attraction between positively charged ligands and nega- tively charged Pt nanocubes is the main driving force for the assembly of Pt nanocubes into supercubes. More importantly, the ligands within the Pt supercubes are readily removed at relatively low expected to exhibit unique size-selective catalysis. temperature to yield surface-clean supercubes which are展开更多
