Lipids play a pivotal role in biological processes and lipid analysis by mass spectrometry (MS) has significantly advanced lipidomic studies. While the structure specificity of lipid analysis proves to be critical for studying the biological functions of lipids, current mainstream methods for large-scale lipid analysis can only identify the lipid classes and fatty acyl chains, leaving the C=C location and sn -position unidentified. In this study, combining photochemistry and tandem MS we develop a simple but effective workflow to enable large-scale and near-complete lipid structure characterization with a powerful capability of identifying C=C location(s) and sn -position(s) simultaneously. Quantitation of lipid structure isomers at multiple levels of specificity is achieved and different subtypes of human breast cancer cells are successfully discriminated. Remarkably, human lung cancer tissues can only be distinguished from adjacent normal tissues using quantitative results of both lipid C=C location and sn -position isomers.

Ferroelectric materials with the typical perovskite structure are widely used in capacitors, ultrasonic devices, oil drilling, transducers, and other fields. Lead-lanthanum-zirconium-titanate ceramics co-doped with Sn and Ba , have been widely investigated. However, there is little attention has been focused on the dielectric properties of barium-lanthanum-zirconium-titanate. Thus, in this work, Sn doped Ba 0.955 La 0.03 Zr 0.02 Ti 0.98 O 3 ferroelectric ceramics were prepared via a classical high-temperature solid state reaction. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the surface appearance of ceramics. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns at room temperature, indicate that the ceramics are well crystallized. Impedance properties and dielectric properties reflect the characteristic of typical high temperature dielectric relaxation behavior. The conductive activation energy and the relaxation activation energy are obtained through the calculation of the Arrhenius law. The fitting results show that the dielectric relaxation behavior at high-temperature, was related to the oxygen defect. The electrical modulus verified the partial short-range carrier migration, also contribute to the high-temperature dielectric properties.

The solid-state batteries have received widespread attention due to their excellent stability and safety, however, the low ionic conductivity and weak interface contact always restricted its performance. In this work, we propose an in situ thermally cross-linked and solidified polymer electrolyte with polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) as scaffold in which succinonitrile (SN) and lithium bis-trifluoromethanesulfonimide (LiTFSI) were further introduced to improve the ionic conductivity. Herein, the composite gel was served as not only solid-solid interface material but also solid-state electrolyte. Different with conventional polymer gels, the solvent evaporation could not happen for this composite material during the solidification process, and therefore resulting in good interface contact without inside bubbles. We further present the investigation on transport principle of Li+ in the solid-state electrolyte and the effect of molecular chain on ionic conductivity. The conductivity of the solid-state electrolyte can reach 1.76 × 10−4 S cm−1 at room temperature without any assistance of liquid electrolytes, which is attributed to the short molecular chain of PEGDA. Electrochemical window of the solid-state electrolyte can reach 5.2 V after cross-linking treatment. And the lithium-oxygen battery using this solid-state electrolyte can stably cycle for more than 1100 cycles with a current density of 200 mA g−1 and a limit capacity of 200 mAh g−1 at room temperature.

To evaluate the effects of different alcohols (primary, secondary, and two different tertiary alcohols) as initiators on the structure of polycaprolactone (PCL) in ring-opening polymerization (ROP), four experiments were conducted in toluene with tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate (Sn(Oct) 2 ) as the catalyst. The kinetics of ε -caprolactone ( ε -CL) ROP at different temperatures and monomer concentrations were studied with n -butanol as the initiator and Sn(Oct) 2 as the catalyst. The kinetic plot of ln(M 0 /M t ) vs. time ( t ) seems a linear, which indicates that the propagation rate is in the first order with respect to monomer concentration. When the reaction temperature increased, the reaction rate and the final relative maximum monomer conversions also increased. The molecular weight of PCL initially increased and then decreased as monomer conversion increased. This behavior can be attributed to the high viscosity of the system, which affected monomer diffusion and polymer chain propagation. In addition, prolonging reaction time caused inter-/intramolecular transesterification. However, when monomer concentration decreased, the reaction rate decreased. The actual activation energy of Sn(Oct) 2 -catalyzed ROP of ε -CL in toluene was -75 kJ/mol.

Graphical CO 2 to formic acid : A novel kind of Sn/TiO 2 /Si photocathode is developed for CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR), which shows excellent selectivity to HCOOH under applied potential. The improved light performance and heterojunction composite structure, together with the modulated electronic configuration, co-contribute to the high CO 2 RR performance. Using renewable energy to convert CO 2 into liquid products, as a sustainable way to produce fuels and chemicals, has attracted intense attention. Herein, a novel heterostructured photocathode composed of Si wafer, TiO 2 layer, and Sn metal particles has been successfully fabricated by combining of a facile hydrothermal and electrodeposition method. The obtained Sn/TiO 2 /Si photocathode shows enhanced light absorption performance by the surface plasmon resonance effect of Sn metal. Especially, the Sn/TiO 2 /Si photocathode together with rich oxygen vacancy defects jointly promote photoelectrochemical CO 2 reduction, harvesting a high faradaic efficiency of HCOOH and a desirable average current density (−4.72 mA cm −2 ) at −1.0 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode. Significantly, the photocathode Sn/TiO 2 /Si also shows good stability due to the design of protecting layer TiO 2 . This study provides a facile strategy of constructing an efficient photocathode to improve the light absorption performance and the electron transfer efficiency, exhibiting great potential in the CO 2 reduction.

The selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde (CAL) to prepare cinnamyl alcohol (COL) is challenging as the unwanted hydrogenation of C C bond in CAL is thermodynamically more favorable than the hydrogenation of C O bond. We herein designed core–shell structured nanoparticles (NPs) that consisted of Pt cores and Sn shells to catalyze the CAL to COL conversion. By simply changing the amount of Sn precursor, we generated Pt@Sn NPs with different Sn shell thickness and catalytic performance. Among the samples, Pt@Sn/SiO 2 with Pt/Sn of 1/1 achieved the highest CAL conversion (87.2 %) as well as the COL selectivity (95.4 %), which were 5-fold and 6-fold, respectively, higher than those of Pt/SiO 2 . This catalyst was also applicable to the hydrogenation of other α, β-unsaturated aldehyde and unsaturated carbonyl compounds. Both experiments and theoretical calculations indicated that the strong Pt-Sn interaction and the partial coverage of Pt by Sn facilitated their adsorption of C O bonds, thus enhancing the conversion of CAL and the selectivity towards COL.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have been considered to be an appealing alternative as alternatives for Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) on account of abundant resources and low prices. Different cathode materials have been extensively studied, especially layered oxides (P2 or O3). However, it is crucial to design an appropriate cathode material for SIBs with excellent comprehensive performance. Herein, a biphasic cathode material with P2 and O3 structures is successfully synthesized by Sn substitution in Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.67 O 2 , which is clearly proved by the XRD and HRTEM results. And Fullprof program refinement is used to determine the optimal phase ratio of P2 and O3. Besides, the XRD tests at different voltages illustrate that the cathode material has good reversibility and structural stability during charge and discharge. Due to the synergistic effect of P2 and O3 phase, when the phase ratio is about 1:1, the biphasic material P2/O3–Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.57 Sn 0.1 O 2 exhibits the most outstanding electrochemical performance. The P2/O3–Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.57 Sn 0.1 O 2 cathode delivers a high reversible initial capacity of 155.2 mA h g −1 during the voltage range from 2.0V up to 4.3V with an excellent initial Coulombic efficiency of 98.95%, as well as the satisfactory rate performances and cycling performance. GITT testing also demonstrates the D Na+ of biphasic material is more stable and conducive to the diffusion of sodium ions . These results will pave a significant way for designing cathode material for SIBs with different structure by the substitution of transition metal elements.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted remarkable attention for their distinguished structural designability. Precisely controlling the particle size and improving the structural stability of MOF nanoparticles influence their catalytic activity significantly. In this study, six acids (nitric, hydrochloric, formic, acetic, succinic, and citric acids) were used as modulators to prepare bimetallic MIL-101 (Cr, Sn) (MIL stands for Materials of Institut Lavoisier) via a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. Changes in volumetric, structural, stability, and catalytic properties, size, and shape of MIL-101 (Cr, Sn) were examined using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and N2adsorption–desorption measurements. All modulators altered the MOF properties. Compared with other samples, acetic acid as a modulator mildly altered the MOF morphology by narrowing their particle size distribution, enhancing the specific surface area, and significantly improving their water and thermal stabilities. The addition of acetic acid was suitable for the catalytic conversion of glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), achieving a 43.1% 5-HMF yield with 91.4% glucose conversion in a mixed solution of γ-valerolactone and saturated salt water at 150 °C after 30 min.Keywords:modulators;microwave synthesis;bimetallic MIL-101 (Cr, Sn)

Graphite stands out as the most promising anode material for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) due to its cost-effectiveness and ideal low-potential platform. However, the perceived poor rate capability of graphite has become a key concern for its commercial application in PIBs. Herein, the above understanding on the poor rate capability of graphite is updated. Without modifying graphite structure, by simply introducing a tin trifluoromethanesulfonate (Sn(OTf) 2 ) additive in phosphate-based electrolyte, the graphite in K||graphite half-cell can deliver a capacity of 240 mAh g −1 at a high rate of 2 C (1 C = 279 mA g −1 ) and operates for 1000 cycles with negligible degradation. Moreover, an unprecedented rate capacity of ≈200 mAh g −1 for graphite anode at 4 C is achieved in a three-electrode K|K ref|graphite cell configuration where the interference of the K metal counter electrode is eliminated. Unlike structure modification strategies, such remarkable rate performance is originated from the low-impedance inorganic-rich KF/SnF 2 hybrid interphase on graphite. Thus, the effectiveness of the electrolyte regulation strategy highlights the underestimated rate capability of graphite anode. This renewed insight dispels the concern regarding the commercial applicability of graphite anode and enriches the advantages of PIBs for high-power density.

The production of high value-added chemicals and materials from renewable biomass is significant for the sustainable development of chemical industry. Herein, rice husk-based biogenic silica-anchored Sn-Co catalysts with adjustable activity are successfully prepared for biomass valorization. By regulating the pretreatment method and carbothermal reduction temperature of catalysts, the interaction between Co, Sn and biogenic silica can be regulated, thereby regulating the catalytic activity of the catalyst for cellulose hydrogenolysis. 50.7 % yield of acetol and 63.4 % yield of C3 products can be obtained. A series of characterizations show that the hydrothermal pretreatment in CoCl 2 solution promotes the combination of Co 2+ and biogenic silica, which inhibits the excessive doping of Sn 4+ and promotes the formation of Co 3 Sn 2 alloy. The Sn-O-Si and Co 3 Sn 2 species in 3Sn-5Co@RHC are the key active sites catalyzing glucose isomerization and fructose retro-aldol condensation. The intermediates experiments show that controlling the hydrolysis rate of cellulose to avoid excessive concentration of monosaccharide intermediates in the reaction system is crucial for inhibiting side reactions and improving the yield of acetol. The use of agroforestry waste-based catalytic materials for biomass conversion in this work can provide inspiration for exploiting the intrinsic characteristics of biomass to develop high value-added materials and chemicals.

Herein, a series of Sn-based catalysts supported on SBA-15 with temperature responsive ability to in situ construct acidic and basic sites are reported for efficient conversion of biomass-derived sugars into ethyl lactate (EL). Based on the investigation on the effects of the molar ratio of Cl/OH in Sn(OH) x Cl 2-x and the support types, it is found that Sn(OH) 0.5 Cl 1.5 @SBA-15 is an excellent catalyst in catalytic conversion of various sugars to EL, achieving a maximum EL yield of 68.1 % from sucrose. The in situ generated basic SnO sites play important roles in accelerating the retro-aldol condensation reaction, while the concomitantly released acidic sites (Sn 2 + , SnCl + and H + ) could catalyze the reactions of hydrolysis, isomerization, intermolecular rearrangement and esterification to EL. Benefiting from the temperature responsive effect, not only can the reaction pathways be regulated toward high EL selectivity, but also the catalyst can be recycled easily. This research paves an avenue for exploring efficient catalysts for biomass valorization.

The specific capacities and power performances of conventional cathode materials are still needed to improve in order to meet the demand for electrical vehicles. Li-rich layered oxide delivers a high specific capacity, but poor rate performances. Chemical doping is an effective way to address this challenge due to the expanded crystal lattice. Unlike a single ion substitution in the literature, here Li-rich layered oxides were doped by Sn and K to achieve the favorite rate performance, where Sn and K were assumed to replace transition metal ion and Li ion, respectively. Results indicate the co-doped samples result in an increasing capacity retention by more than 40% from 107.9 (contrast sample) to 151.5 mAh g −1 (co-doped sample) at 10 C-rate. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and calculated diffusion coefficient of Li + also confirmed the favorite rate performances for co-doped sample. Combining results of Rietveld structure refinement, we proposed that the reason for rate performances comes from the enlarged crystal lattices, which provides a smooth diffusion tunnel for Lithium ions during the charge/discharge processes. The as-adopted method provides a possibility to achieve the improved rate performances by co-doping big-size ions at the different crystal sites.
