Nano-sized Co3O4 is an effective catalyst for fuel oxidation due to its high capacity of oxygen storage, and it is thus frequently applied in improving the oxidation performance of hydrocarbon fuels. In our present work, attempts were made to study the catalytic performance of Co3O4 for the oxidation of liquid fuels over a wide temperature range. Neat n-decane and n-decane/1,2,4-trimethylbenzene mixtures were chosen because they are typical liquid hydrocarbon fuels. The evidences from this study suggest that the temperatures of both fuel ignition and full conversion are significantly decreased by Co3O4 catalyst. CO2 is the only product detected in the catalytic oxidation, which also proves the complete oxidation of the liquid fuels. Furthermore, to explore the possible reaction pathways on the catalyst surface, temperature-dependent and time-dependent in situ DRIFTS were employed to identify surface species and analyze catalytic mechanism. Various surface intermediates including bidentate, monodentate carbonate species, carboxylate species and molecular adsorbed n-decane have been observed. The experimental results indicate that n-decane oxidation over Co3O4 proceeds via the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism where lattice oxygen plays a critical role in the fuel oxidation.

ABATRACTA direct approach to N,N′-disubstituted urea/thiourea from the self-condensation reactions of isothiocyanates in water has been developed. This access tolerated a wide range of functional groups on the aromatic ring, providing a practical and environment-friendly process to N,N′-disubstituted urea/thiourea in moderate to excellent yields from safe and easily available starting materials. A plausible mechanism of the desulfurization self-condensation reaction for urea was also proposed and the role of di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) and copper catalyst in the present strategy was demonstrated with the help of ESI mass spectrometry of intermediate studies.

Photocatalytic decomposition of water for hydrogen production is considered a promising solution to address the issues of energy crisis and environmental pollution. Herein, a kind of novel hollow flower-like 0D/3D Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S/NiCoZn-LDH with an n-n heterojunction is synthesized via precipitation and cation-exchange methods. Photocatalytic experiments reveal that the composite photocatalyst exhibits excellent performance compared with pure Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S. In other words, the composite photocatalyst shows enhanced response to visible light, three-fold increased transient photocurrent, and the hydrogen production rate reaching to 1100 μmol/h/g, approximately 7.3 times higher relative to pure Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S. The reaction mechanism is also elucidated. Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S/NiCoZn-LDH shows a type II n-n heterojunction, which can effectively transfer and separate the photo-generated electrons and holes, and is beneficial for the photocatalytic hydrogen production reaction. The synthesized composite photocatalyst is prepared using a simple method, enabling future large-scale production and applications.

The preparation of micron- to nanometer-sized functional materials with well-defined shapes and packing is a key process to their applications. There are many ways to control the crystal growth of organic semiconductors. Adding polymer additives has been proven a robust strategy to optimize semiconductor crystal structure and the corresponding optoelectronic properties. We have found that poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) can effectively regulate the crystallization behavior of N,N′-dioctyl perylene diimide (C8PDI). In this study, we combined P3HT and polyethylene glycol (PEG) to amphiphilic block copolymers and studied the crystallization modification effect of these block copolymers. It is found that the crystallization modification effect of the block copolymers is retained and gradually enhanced with P3HT content. The length of C8PDI crystals were well controlled from 2 to 0.4 μm, and the width from 210 to 35 nm. On the other hand, due to the water solubility of PEG block, crystalline PEG-b-P3HT/C8PDI micelles in water were successfully prepared, and this water phase colloid could be stable for more than 2 weeks, which provides a new way to prepare pollution-free aqueous organic semiconductor inks for printing electronic devices.

A fast, large-scale, and stable preparation method was successfully developed to obtain η-Al2O3 microspheres with particle sizes of 3–10 μm from cheap and widely sourced NaAlO2 solution using N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as a morphological modifier and a precipitant simultaneously at room temperature. The yield of alumina increases from 33.3 to 77.3% by increasing the dose of DMF from 100 to 400 mL. The utilization efficiency of DMF significantly increased by adding fresh NaAlO2 into the reused filtrate after separating the bayerite precipitate (precursor of η-Al2O3). Importantly, the η-Al2O3 microspheres obtained from the filtrate-reuse experiments show the stable phase structures, morphologies, and pore structure properties. Furthermore, the typical η-Al2O3 microspheres supported Pd catalyst presents a higher catalytic activity of 10.6 g/L for the hydrogenation of anthraquinone than that of the commercial γ-Al2O3-supported Pd catalyst (8.5 g/L), suggesting that the as-prepared η-Al2O3 microspheres have good application prospects for catalytic hydrogenation and related fields.

Epidemiological studies have identified that the risk of cardiovascular events increases due to the decreased levels of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol and the elevated levels of low density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Herein, we report a novel series of N , N -3-phenyl-3-benzylaminopropionanilide derivatives, which were identified as potent cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor. The initial lead compound L10 (IC 50 8.06 μM) was found by pharmacophore-based virtual screening (Dong-Mei Zhao et al., Chin. Chem. Lett. 2014 , 25 , 299). After systematic structure variation and biological testing against CETP, two different series were identified as scaffolds for potent CETP inhibitors. One is N , N -3-phenyl-3-benzylaminopropanamide derivatives, which were investigated in our previous paper ( Bioorg. Med. Chem. 2015 , doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.bmc.2015.12.010 ). The most potent compound HL16 in that series has the IC 50 of 0.69 μM. The other series is N , N -3-phenyl-3-benzylaminopropionanilide derivatives, which was investigated in current study. Further optimization of the structure–activity relationship (SAR) resulted in H16 (IC 50 0.15 μM), which was discovered as a potent CETP inhibitor in vitro by BODIPY-CE fluorescence assay . In addition, the results of pharmacodynamics studies showed that H16 exhibited both favorable HDL-C enhancement and LDL-C reduction in vivo by hamster. It also has an excellent stability in rat liver microsomal.

As a typical high-efficient alkane aromatization catalyst, Pt/KL is prone to deactivation due to the sintering growth of Pt on the outer surface of KL and the channel blockage caused by carbon deposition , which is further exacerbated by the one-dimensional channel structure of KL. Therefore, a series of encapsulated catalysts combining the three-dimensional channel structure advantages of S-1 with the role of potassium are prepared and evaluated. It is shown that the encapsulated catalyst KPt@S-1-02 modified by moderate potassium exhibits extremely superior stability and no significant deactivation is observable after n-heptane aromatization for 180 h under harsh conditions. On the one hand, encapsulation structure enables a strong anti-agglomeration ability of Pt and the topological structure of S-1 endows the encapsulation catalysts less susceptible to channel blockage, which has been demonstrated by HAADF-STEM and N 2 -adsorption. On the other hand, characterizations involving NH 3 -TPD, CO-DRIFT and HAADF-STEM verify that the modification by an appropriate amount of K can inhibit acid sites of catalysts and improve Pt dispersion and electron density, thus enhance the stability of catalysts. However, excessive K can serve as weak acid sites, poison of active sites and inhibitor of H 2 adsorption on Pt surface, leading to deactivation of the catalyst.

Since the content of thiophene in coking crude benzene is high, it is necessary to remove it from coking crude benzene for efficient utilization. In this study, an important intermediate, N, N -dimethyl-2-thiophenecar-boxamide, was synthesized from thiophene and dimethylcarbamyl chloride. The influences of the dosages of dimethylcarbamyl chloride and ZnCl 2 catalyst, reaction temperature and time on the removal rate were further explored based on the reaction kinetics. The structure of the target product was characterized by means of MS, 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR. The removal rate of thiophene was 98.14% after the reaction for 2 h and thiophene was almost removed after the reaction for 3 h under the optimal reaction conditions[a molar ratio of n (thiophene): n (dimethylcarbamyl chloride): n (ZnCl 2 )=1:12:10, 300 r/min, 318 K and 101.325 kPa]. The acylation of thiophene with dimethylcarbamyl chloride was approximately in accord with the first order kinetic equation at 303–323 K. The activation energy was 53.9850 kJ/mol and the pre-exponential factor was 1.4521×10 9 h −1 .

The combination of carbon and iron oxide has recently attracted increasing research interest in energy conversion and storage . Here, the hybrid nanostructure with N, S-codoped Fe 3 O 4 supported/embedded on/in N-doped porous carbon (NS-Fe 3 O 4 @N-PC) nanococoon was prepared via direct pyrolysis of core@shell β-FeOOH@Polypyrrole (β-FeOOH@PPy) composite. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of high redox activity of NS-Fe 3 O 4 and excellent electrical conductivity as well as good mechanical stability of N-PC, the obtained NS-Fe 3 O 4 @N-PC exhibited an enhanced specific capacitance of 866 F/g at 1 A/g along with excellent rate capability (383 F/g at 10 A/g) and improved cycling stability (78.2% of initial capacitance retained after 5000 cycles test) while applied as electrode materials of supercapacitor . Significantly, the asymmetric supercapacitor devices assembled using NS-Fe 3 O 4 @N-PC as anodes and commercial carbon nanotubes as cathodes can achieve a large stack energy density of 38.9 Wh/Kg at a stack power density of 700.2 W/Kg along with good stability (only 8.4% decay of initial capacitance after 5000 cycles at 4 A/g). The present work may provide a general approach for fabricating other metal oxide@carbon hybrid nanomaterials for various applications.

Stimuli-responsive polymers that can undergo conformational changes with external triggers have enabled themselves as smart materials for various utilizations, among which biodegradability is of particular importance to be engineered for biomedical application. In this study, a thermo and pH dual responsive polypeptide ( N , N -dimethylaminoethyl acrylate-modified poly( l -cysteine)) (PLC- g -DMAEA) was prepared by the combination of N -carboxyanhydride ring-open polymerization and thiol-ene click chemistry. The biodegradable poly( l -cysteine) (PLC) with pendant thiol groups provided an easily clickable backbone for postmodification, which was demonstrated by reacting with a well-known monomer of N , N -dimethylaminoethyl acrylate (DMAEA) to achieve both temperature and pH responsiveness. The irreversible thermo-response of PLC- g -DMAEA could be attributed to the ordered β-sheets formed upon heating, leading to the trapped side groups with poor water accessibility. Moreover, this copolymer precipitated at pH ranging from 7.5 to 9.7, but protonation of tertiary amine groups (pH < 7.5) and salt forming of masked thiol groups (pH > 9.7) rendered it soluble in water. Our results revealed that a ready available vinyl monomer could be easily clicked onto the biodegradable PLC and its stimuli responsiveness would be reserved. Moreover, the primary and secondary structures of PLC might influence the conformation, thus leading to the unique responsive behavior of the resulted copolymer. Graphical
