Influence of zinc phthalocyanines on photoelectrical properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon

Composites consisting of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si: H, inorganic) and zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc, organic) were prepared by vacuum evaporation of ZnPc and sequential deposition amorphous silicon via plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The optical and electrical properties of the composite film have been investigated. The results demonstrate that ZnPc can endure the temperature and bombardment of the PECVD plasma and photoconductivity of the composite film was improved by 89.9% compared to pure a-Si: H film. Electron mobility-lifetime products μτ of the composite film were increased by nearly one order of magnitude from 6.96 × 10~(-7) to 5.08 × 10~(-6) cm~2/V. Combined with photoconductivity spectra of the composites and pure a-Si: H, we tentatively elucidate the improvement in photoconductivity of the composite film.

Bis(2,2 '-bipyridine)(5,6-epoxy-5,6-dihydro-[1,10] phenanthroline)ruthenium: Synthesis and electrochemical and electrochemiluminescence characterization

In this work, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) reagent bis(2,2'-bipyridine)(5,6-epoxy-5,6-dihydro-[1,10]phenanthroline)ruthenium complex (Ru-1) was synthesized, and its electrochemical and ECL properties were characterized. The synthesis of Ru-1 was confirmed by IR spectra, element analysis, and H-1 NMR spectra. For further study, its UV-vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectra were investigated. Ru-1 also exhibited quasi-reversible Ru-II/Ru-III redox waves in acetonitrile solution. The aqueous ECL behaviors of Ru-1 were also studied in the absence and in the presence of tripropylamine.

Vilsmeier-Haack reactions of 2-arylamino-3-acetyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrans toward the synthesis of highly substituted pyridin-2(1H)-ones

A facile and efficient one-pot synthesis of highly substituted pyridin-2(IH)-ones was developed via Vilsmeier-Haack reactions of readily available enaminones, 2-arylamino-3-acetyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrans, and a mechanism involving sequential ring-opening, haloformylation, and intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization reactions is proposed.

Identification of the flavonoid constituents from leaves of Acanthopanax Senticosus Harms

Four flavonoids from leaves of Acanthopanax Senticosus Harms were observed in negative ion mode in the electrospray mass spectra. Two of them were further isolated and identified as quercitrin (quercetin-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnoside) and hyperin (quercetin-3-O-beta-D-galactoside) on the basis of MS' and NMR data. The other two compounds in the mixtures were tentatively established as quercetin and rutin (quercetin-3-O-rutinoside) in terms of their electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn) data. Three of the four flavonoids (excluding hyperin) haven't been reported in this plant before.

Sol-gel derived carbon ceramic electrode bulk-modified with tris(1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione)iron(II) hexafluorophosphate and its use as an amperometric iodate sensor

A surface-renewable tris (1,10-phenanthroline-5, 6-dione) iron (II) hexafluorophosphate (FePD) modified carbon ceramic electrode was constructed by dispersing FePD and graphite powder in methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMOS) based gels. The FePD-modified electrode presented pH dependent voltammetric behavior, and its peak currents were diffusion-controlled in 0.1 mol/L Na2SO4 + H2SO4 solution (pH = 0. 4). In the, presence of iodate, clear electrocatalytic reduction waves were observed and thus the chemically modified electrode was used as an amperometric sensor for iodate in common salt. The linear range, sensitivity, detection limit and response time of the iodate sensor were 5 x 10(-6)-1 x 10(-2) mol/L, 7.448 muA.L/mmol, 1.2 x 10(-6) mol/L and 5 s, respectively. A distinct advantage of this sensor is its good reproducibility of surface-renewal by simple mechanical polishing.

Resolution of 3,3 '-dioxo-1,1 '(3H,3 ' H)spirobi[isobenzofuran]-5,6,5 ' 6 '-tetracarboxylic acid and Optically active Polyimides thereof

3,3'-Dioxo-1.1'(3H.3'H)spirobi[isobenzofuran]-5,6,5',6 acid 1 was resolved successfully and the corresponding optically active polyimides PI were synthesized. The properties of the optically active PI and the racemic one were investigated. The results showed that the specific rotation of(-)-PI was about two times to that of the: (+)-PI, and the regularity of the optically active PI was higher than that of the racemic one.
