An effective'salt in dimethyl sulfoxide/water'electrolyte enables high-voltage supercapacitor operated at-50℃

Compared with organic electrolytes,aqueous electrolytes exhibit significantly higher ionic conductivity and possess inherent safety features,showcasing unique advantages in supercapacitors.However,challenges remain for low-salt aqueous electrolytes operating at high voltage and low temperature.Herein,we report a low-salt(0.87 m,m means mol kg^(-1))'salt in dimethyl sulfoxide/water'hybrid electrolyte with non-flammability via hybridizing aqueous electrolyte with an organic co-solvent of dimethyl sulfoxide(hydrogen bond acceptor).As a result,the 0.87 m hybrid electrolyte exhibits enhanced electrochemical stability,a freezing temperature below-50℃,and an outstanding ionic conductivity of 0.52mS cm~(-1)at-50℃.Dimethyl sulfoxide can anchor water molecules through intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction,effectively reinforcing the stability of water in the hybrid electrolyte.Furthermore,the interaction between dimethyl sulfoxide and water molecules diminishes the involvement of water in the generation of ordered ice crystals,finally facilitating the low-temperature performance of the hybrid electrolyte.When paired with the 0.87 m'salt in dimethyl sulfoxide/water'hybrid electrolyte,the symmetric supercapacitor presents a 2.0 V high operating voltage at 25℃,and can operate stably at-50℃.Importantly,the suppressed electrochemical reaction of water at-50℃further leads to the symmetric supercapacitor operated at a higher voltage of 2.6 V.This modification strategy opens an effective avenue to develop low-salt electrolytes for high-voltage and low-temperature aqueous supercapacitors.

Interaction of methionine sulfoxide reductase B5 with SlMYC2 stimulates the transcription of MeJA-mediated autophagy-related genes in tomato fruit

Methyl jasmonate(MeJA)has been shown to induce autophagy in various plant stress responses and metabolic pathways.MYC2 is involved in MeJA-mediated postharvest fruit biological metabolism,but it is unclear how it affects MeJA-induced fruit autophagy.In this study,we noticed that silencing SlMYC2 significantly reduced the increase in autophagy-related genes(SlATGs)expression induced by MeJA.SlMYC2 could also bind to the promoters of several SlATGs,including SlATG13a,SlATG13b,SlATG18a,and SlATG18h,and activate their transcript levels.Moreover,SlMsrB5,a methionine sulfoxide reductase,could interact with SlMYC2.Methionine oxidation in SlMYC2 and mimicking sulfoxidation in SlMYC2 by mutation of methionine-542 to glutamine reduced the DNA-binding ability and transcriptional activity of SlMYC2,respectively.SlMsrB5 partially repaired oxidized SlMYC2 and restored its DNA-binding ability.On the other hand,silencing SlMsrB5 inhibited the transcript levels of SlMYC2-targeted genes(SlATG13a,SlATG13b,SlATG18a,and SlATG18h).Similarly,dual-luciferase reporter(DLR)analysis revealed that SlMsrB5–SlMYC2 interaction significantly increased the ability of SlMYC2-mediated transcriptional activation of SlATG13a,SlATG13b,SlATG18a,and SlATG18h.These findings demonstrate that SlMsrB5-mediated cyclic oxidation/reduction of methionine in SlMYC2 inf luences SlATGs expression.Collectively,these findings reveal the mechanism of SlMYC2 in SlATGs transcriptional regulation,providing insight into the mechanism of MeJA-mediated postharvest fruit quality regulation.

Dimethyl sulfoxide inhibits zymosan-induced intestinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction

AIM: To investigate whether dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) inhibits gut inflammation and barrier dysfunction following zymosan-induced systemic inflammatoryresponse syndrome and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.METHODS: Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham with administration of normal saline(SS group); sham with administration of DMSO(SD group); zymosan with administration of normal saline(ZS group); and zymosan with administration of DMSO(ZD group). Each group contained three subgroups according to 4 h,8 h,and 24 h after surgery. At 4 h,8 h,and 24 h after intraperitoneal injection of zymosan(750 mg/kg),the levels of intestinal inflammatory cytokines [tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α) and interleukin(IL)-10] and oxides(myeloperoxidase,malonaldehyde,and superoxide dismutase) were examined. The levels of diamine oxidase(DAO) in plasma and intestinal mucosal blood flow(IMBF) were determined. Intestinal injury was also evaluated using an intestinal histological score and apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells was determined by deoxynucleotidyl transferase d UTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) assay. The intestinal epithelial tight junction protein,ZO-1,was observed by immunofluorescence.RESULTS: DMSO decreased TNF-α and increased IL-10 levels in the intestine compared with the ZS group at the corresponding time points. The activity of intestinal myeloperoxidase in the ZS group was higher than that in the ZD group 24 h after zymosan administration(P < 0.05). DMSO decreased the content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and increased the activity of superoxide dehydrogenase(SOD) 24 h after zymosan administration. The IMBF was lowest at 24 h and was 49.34% and 58.26% in the ZS group and ZD group,respectively(P < 0.05). DMSO alleviated injury in intestinal villi,and the gut injury score was significantly lower than the ZS group(3.6 ± 0.2 vs 4.2 ± 0.3,P < 0.05). DMSO decreased the level of DAO in plasma compared with the ZS group(65.1 ± 4.7 U/L vs 81.1 ± 5.0 U/L,P < 0.05). DMSO significantly preserved ZO-1 protein expression and localization 24 h after zymosan administration. The TUNEL analysis indicated that the number of apoptotic intestinal cells in the ZS group was much higher than the ZD group(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: DMSO inhibited intestinal cytokines and protected against zymosan-induced gut barrier dysfunction.

Extractive Desulfurization from Simulated Sulfur-Rich Naphtha

Upon extractive desulfurization of sulfur-rich oil obtained after recycling raffinate,the effects of single and compound extractants,temperature,and extractant/oil ratio on desulfurization rate,oil loss rate,extractant loss rate,and selectivity coefficient were investigated.The results showed that the thiophene existing in the simulated sulfur-rich oil could be further removed by extraction.The single-stage desulfurization rates achieved by dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)and sulfolane(SF)were 53.51%and 47.36%,respectively,while the selectivity coefficient of SF was 1.13,which was higher than that of DMSO(with a selectivity coefficient of 1.04).For the compound extractant,a single-stage desulfurization rate of 49.59%and a selectivity coefficient of 1.40 were obtained by using DMSO+10%MEA as the extractant,which was higher than that of SF.Upon using 50%SF+50%DMSO as the extractant,the single-stage desulfurization rate reached 50.92%with a selectivity coefficient of 1.32.Based on the comprehensive consideration,the DMSO+10%MEA extractant was selected as the best extractant for treating the sulfur-rich oil.

Synthesis, Characterization and Fluorescence of Phenylcarboxymethyl Sulfoxide Complexes with Lanthanide Nitrates

Phenylcarboxymethyl Sulfoxide, PhSOCH 2COOH(LH), complexes of six lanthanide nitrates: Ln 2L 2(NO 3) 4·2LH· n H 2O(where Ln=La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu) were synthesized. Elemental analyses, molar conductivities, IR, 1HNMR and TG DTA measurements were used to characterize the complexes. The results show that the ligand(L) is coordinated to metal ions through two oxygen atoms of the carboxyl group and one oxygen atom of the sulfoxide moieties. Neutral ligang (LH)is coordinated to two metal ions through two oxygen atoms of carboxyl group as an asymmetrical bridging bidentate. The fluorescence spectra of Eu 3+ complex indicates that there is no inversion symmetry at the site of Eu 3+ ion, but the emission intensity of fluorescence is quite good.The solubility of the complexes is very good in water.

Ab-initio and DFT Calculations of PdCl_2L_2 (L = DHSO, DPSO) Complexes

The substituent effect of sulfoxides in solvent extraction of palladium is investigated theoretically by using di-n-hexyl and diphenyl sulfoxide-palladium （Ⅱ） adducts as model complexes. RHF, DFT and two half-and-half functional （BHandHLYP and BHandH） methods have been applied in the geometry optimization, and BHandH method at the 6-31G^＊ level （Pd, 3-21G^＊） can give adequate accuracy for both free sulfoxides and their Pd （Ⅱ） complexes. As compared to diphenyl sulfoxide （DPSO）, the better affinity of di-n-hexyl sulfoxide （DHSO） towards Pd（Ⅱ） has been reasonably explained by a stronger electronic transfer, shorter Pd-S bond length and a larger binding energy in its Pd （Ⅱ） complex.

The pilot test of Pt-Pd and Pt-Rh feeds extracted and separated with a new sulfoxide extractant

Platinum, palladium and rhodium of the raw feeds extracted and separated with a new sulfoxide extractant （MSO） were studied in the paper. The pilot test results showed that the percentage extractions are more than 99% for platinum and palladium in Pt-Pd feed, and the percentage strippings are 100% and 99.2% with HCl and ammonia, respectively. The ratio of palladium to platinum is 0.0016 in stripping platinum solution, and the ratio of platinum to palladium is 0.0020 in stripping palladium solution. The percentage extraction of platinum is 99% in Pt-Rh feed, and the percentage stripping is 100%. The ratio of rhodium to platinum is 0.0002 in stripping platinum solution. Therefore, platinum, palladium, and rhodium feeds are separated effectively with MSO.

A study on the composition and structure of cyclic sulfoxide derivative palladium(Ⅱ) complex

The composition and structure of cyclic sulfoxide derivative Pd(IT) complexwere investigated. The coordinated number was studied with slope method. The coordination number is2 in lower acidity, but it is 3 in higher acidity. Four methods, UV (ultraviolet) spectra, FUR(Fourier transform infrared) spectra, ~1H-NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra, and ^(13)C-NMRspectra, were used to determine the coordinated atom in complex. Pd is coordinated with O and S atomin S=O group in lower acidity media. The conversion of coordination bond appears with an increasingtime. Pd is coordinated with S atom in S=O group in higher acidity media, and inter-ligand-transferreaction occurs.

Extraction of palladium(Ⅱ) with OTMSO from acidic media

The extraction of palladium(Ⅱ) from acidic media with cyclic sulfoxidedervva-tive-α-octyl-tetrahydrothiophene-1-oxide (OTMSO) was investigated. The extraction efficiencyof palla-dium(Ⅱ) with OTMSO is 97.1% at 0.3 mol·L^(-1) OTMSO. The plots of the extractionefficiency for palla-dium(Ⅲ) appear to lie on a convex curve having a minimum of extractionefficiency at 1-2 mol·L^(-1) HCl. The extraction reaction of palladium(Ⅱ) with OTMSO isendothermic, and ΔH_(OTMSO)~θ = 12.2 kJ·mol^(-1). The coordination number was studied with slopemethod. The result indicates that coordination number is 2. FT-IR spectra were used to analyze thestructure of complex and coordinated atom in complex. Pd is coordinated with both oxygen and sulfuratom in S=O group in OTMSO. The situation and intensity of peaks contributed by complex preparedfrom various acidity were different. The recovery of palladium(Ⅱ) with OTMSO from scrap containingpalladium was discussed. After silver and bismuth were removed, the feed solution was extractedthree times by 40% (volume fraction) OTMSO-kerosene. The loaded organic phase was scrubbed threetimes, and stripped three times by 2 mol·L^(-1) NH_3·H_2O solution. The total recovery ofpalladium was 99.8%, and the purity of palladium was 99.8 %.

Physicochemical properties of β-cyclodextrin solutions and precipitates prepared from injectable vehicles

β-Cyclodextrin( β-CyD) is cyclic oligosaccharide of a glucopyranose, containing a relatively hydrophobic central cavity and hydrophilic outer surface. However, the usefulness of β-CyD is limited owing to its low aqueous solubility whereas we found that its apparent high solubility was evident in some injectable solvents including 2-pyrrolidone(PYR), Nmethyl pyrrolidone(NMP) and dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO). Therefore, in the present study, the physicochemical properties of the 30–60% w/w β-CyD in PYR, NMP and DMSO were investigated such as viscosity, water resistant, matrix formation rate and syringeability. The higher the concentration of β-CyD resulted in the increased viscosity and the higher force and energy of syringeability. β-CyD in PYR gave the highest viscosity which contributed to the lowest syringeability while β-CyD in DMSO exhibited the highest syringeability. The β-CyD in DMSO and NMP exhibited the higher rate of matrix formation. β-CyD in PYR showed the highest water resistant for phase separation while β-CyD in NMP gave the faster de-mixing rate compared to that from PYR. The difference in physicochemical properties of β-CyD dried ppts studied by scanning electron microscope(SEM), differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR) and thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) revealed that there was partial complexation of β-CyD with respective solvents. Both solution and precipitate characteristic properties will be useful for using β-CyD in further investigation as matrix material dissolved in the injectable vehicles as the in situ forming gel for periodontitis treatment.

Synthesis and Fluorescence Property of Eu^(3+), Tb^(3+) Perchlorate Complexes with Diphenyl Sulfoxide and 1,10-Phenanthroline

Two ternary complexes of RE(ClO_4)_3-DPSO-phen and two binary complexes of RE(ClO_4)_3-phen have been synthesized (RE=Eu, Tb; DPSO=diphenyl sulfoxide, phen=1,10-phenanthroline). Elemental analysis and TG-DTA studies suggest that the ternary complexes consist of RE(ClO_4)_3(DPSO)(phen)_3·nH_2O (n=1, 3) and binary complexes consist of RE(phen)_4(ClO_4)_3. IR spectra studies indicate that the DPSO ligand is bonded with RE(Ⅲ) through oxygen atom in sulfinyl group and phen ligand is bonded to RE(Ⅲ) through nitrogen atom. The molar conductivities measured in the acetonitrile solution indicate that two inorganic anions ClO_4^- are coordinated and binary complexes are nonelectrolyte. In the fluorescent spectra it was found that the fluorescence emission intensity of the ternary complexes more intensive than that of the binary complexes.

Biogenic amino acid methionine-based corrosion inhibitors of mild steel in acidic media

N,N-Diallyl methionine ethyl ester hydrochloride 5 underwent alternating copolymerization with SO_2 via the Butler cyclopolymerization protocol in dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) to give water-soluble cycloterpolymer 6 with a ～1:1 molar ratio of sulfide and sulfoxide groups as a result of oxygen transfer from DMSO. Half of the sulfide groups in 6, upon oxidation with H_2O_2, afforded polymer sulfoxide 7 and polymer sulfone 8. The solution properties of these polymers were determined via a viscometric technique. The thermal stability of these polymers was determined by thermogravimetric analysis. The inhibition efficiency obtained from gravimetric mass loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques agreed well with each other. The corrosion efficiencies increase with increasing concentration of the polymers. At a polymer concentration of 175 mM, the maximum inhibition efficiency of copolymer compounds 6–8 was determined to be 92%, 97%, and 95%, respectively. The synthesized polymer compounds acted as mixed-type inhibitors. Polymer compound 7 adsorbed onto the metal surface via chemisorption and physisorption and obeyed Langmuir, Temkin, and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. Analyses by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy indicated that the adsorbed polymers formed a thin film on the metal surface and prevented further corrosive attack.
