The application of attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR), Raman spectroscopy (RS) and combination of ATR-IR and RS for measurements of total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and total phenolic content (TPC) of Chinese rice wine (CRW) were investigated in this study. Synergy interval partial least-squares (SiPLS), support vector machine (SVM) and principal component analysis (PCA) were applied to process the merged data from two individual instruments. It was observed that the performances of models based on the RS spectra were better than those based on the ATR-IR spectra. In addition, SVM models based on the efficient information extracted from ATR-IR and RS spectra were superior to PLS models based on the same information and PLS models based on ATR-IR or RS spectra. The overall results demonstrated that integrating ATR-IR and RS was possible and could improve the prediction accuracy of TAC and TPC in CRWs.
A novel iron-pyridine-based chelate Fe-PYPA was synthesized via a facile and green strategy. The chelate served as a highly efficient catalyst toward CO 2 cycloaddition . A 95.7% PO conversion and a 98.4% PC selectivity were achieved under moderate conditions. Even under solvent-free conditions, Fe-PYPA could achieve a 93.6% conversion and 98.2% selectivity, acting as a robust and efficient catalyst toward CO 2 cycloaddition. Moreover, the as-prepared catalyst showed desirable catalytic activity , good recyclability , remarkable thermo-stability and ideal compatibility to a variety of epoxy substrates. In-situ ATR-IR spectroscopy was used as a powerful tool to gain process understanding for the whole conversion from CO 2 to cyclic carbonate under atmospheric pressure in the presence of TBAI. The process of PO’s ring opening, activation and insertion of CO 2 and the formation of cyclic carbonate were illuminated explicitly through the change of characteristic absorption peaks, providing direct and visual evidence for the mechanism proposed. The present work paves a new way for theoretical and experimental explorations on novel catalyst design and process understanding for highly-efficient greenhouse gas re-utilization.

Carbon-supported PtRu nanoalloy (PtRu/C) is widely used as the anode catalyst for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC), and an aqueous phase synthesis of PtRu/C is in high demand due to for energy-saving and environmentally-benign considerations, however, it is very challenging to attain stoichiometric reduction, good dispersion and a high alloying degree. Herein, we report a facile aqueous phase approach with dimethylamine borane (DMAB) as the reducing agent to synthesize a PtRu/C(DMAB). TEM, XRD, XPS and ICP-AES characterizations indicate that the structural parameters in the PtRu/C(DMAB) are improved significantly as compared to those obtained in a PtRu/C(NaBH4) and a commercial PtRu/C, contributing to an enhanced electrocatalytic performance. It turns out that the PtRu/C(DMAB) exhibits the highest methanol electro-oxidation (MOR) performance among all of the tested samples, with the peak current up to 1.8 times as much as that of the state-of-the-art commercial PtRu/C, corroborating the highest output power density in comparative DMFC tests. In-situ attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy correlates the higher methanol electro-oxidation performance of the PtRu/C(DMAB) with its enhanced CO resistance and CO2generation. This simple aqueous synthetic approach may provide an alternative route for developing efficient anode electrocatalysts of DMFCs.Keywords:PtRu/C catalyst;methanol electro-oxidation reaction;aqueous phase synthesis;dimethylamine borane;direct methanol fuel cell;in-situ ATR-IR
