The polymer ligand and its complex were characterized by infrared spectra (IR), small area X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectro (ICP-AES). In the presence of complex, cyclohexane can be effectively oxidized by molecular oxygen without a reductant. The major products of the reaction are 2-cyclohexen-1-ol, 2-cyclohexen-1-one, and 2-cyclohexen-1-hydroperoxide, which is different from the typical oxidation of cyclohexene. The mechanism of cyclohexene oxidation is also discussed.展开更多

Biodegradable polymers with great processing flexibility are the predominant scaffolding materials. Synthetic biodegradable polymers with well-defined structure and without immunological concerns associated with naturally derived polymers are widely used in tissue engineering. The synthetic biodegradable polymers that are widely used in tissue engineering, including polyesters, polyanhydrides, polyphosphazenes, polyurethane, and poly(glycerol sebacate) are summarized in this article. New developments in conducting polymers, photoresponsive polymers, amino-acid-based polymers, enzymatically degradable polymers, and peptide-activated polymers are also discussed. In addition to chemical functionalization, the scaffold designs that mimic the nano and micro features of the extracellular matrix(ECM) are presented as well, and composite and nanocomposite scaffolds are also reviewed.展开更多
