The analysis result indicates that C37:3 methylketone is predominate in the long-chain alkenones from the Chukchi and Bering Sea sediments. The abundance of C37 to C39 unsaturated alkenones changes in an order of C37 > C38 > C39. Based on C37 /C38 ratio, the detected organism precursors of the long-chain alkenones are mainly coccolithophrid (Emiliania huxleyi). By the calibration relationship between U37k and U37k indices, the sea surface paleotemperature in these seas is estimated. The estimated values of U37k vary from 4.147℃ to 5.706℃ , with a mean value of 5.092℃.展开更多

Detailed information...The addition reactions of alkenes and alkynes to the H-terminated GaN (0001) surface with a Ga dangling-bond have been studied employing periodic density functional theory (PDFT) calculations. Detailed information on the reaction pathways of these alkenes and alkynes with H-GaN (0001) surface is provided, which indicates that the reactions contain two steps separated by the metastable intermediates: elementary addition reaction and H-abstraction process. From the energy curves, the reactions are clearly viable in the cases of ethene, styrene and phenylacetylene; while for ethyne, the H-abstraction barrier is higher than the desorption barrier of the intermediate, so the adsorbed C2H2 in intermediate is more likely to be desorbed back into the gas phase than to form a stable adsorbed species. Furthermore, it is obvious that for either alkenes or alkynes, the systems substituted by phenyl have more stable intermediates because π conjugation could improve their stabilities.展开更多

Flow chemistry often raises the safety profiles against high-pressure and toxic gases because the diameter of the flow reactor is small. Herein, we show that aliphatic alkenes can be safely hydroformylated in a flow reactor. In our flow method, although the target hydroformylated product was obtained in a low yield (19%), toxic gases were safely treated using a flow reactor. Better yields could possibly be achieved by recycling of the unreacted alkene.展开更多
