Photoluminescence study of Langmuir-Blodgett films of blend poly 3-(2-(5-chlorobenzotriazole)ethyl) thiophene

The multilayer Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of pr,ly 3-(2-(5-chlorobenzotriazole)ethyl) thiophene (PCBET) blended with amphibious arachidic acid (AA) were prepared and characterized. The photoluminescence intensity of the blend film was enhanced as the AA increased by a certain amount. The PCBET excimers were not formed in the blend LB films.

ELECTROCHEMICAL REACTION OF CYTOCHROME-C AT GOLD ELECTRODES MODIFIED WITH THIOPHENE CONTAINING ONE FUNCTIONAL-GROUP

The electrochemical reactions of cytochrome c were studied at a thiophene-modified gold electrode. It was demonstrated that thiophene is an effective promoter, although there is only one functional group in the molecule. Based on this result, the mechanis

Simultaneous hydrodesulfurization of thiophene and hydrogenation of cyclohexene over dimolybdenum nitride catalysts

A series of unsupported dimolybdenum nitride (gamma-Mo(2)N) catalysts differing in surface area were prepared by temperature programmed reduction of MoO(3) with a mixture of NH(3):N(2) (90:10). Characterization of catalysts by BET, XRD, TPR and XPS techniques was carried out. The samples were used as catalysts in hydrotreating reactions (simultaneous hydrodesulfurization of thiophene and hydrogenation of cyclohexene). Low surface area gamma-Mo(2)N materials show much higher specific conversions than those with higher surface area. These results indicate that HDS and HYD reactions over gamma-Mo(2)N seem to be structure-sensitive. The relative exposure extent of crystalline planes (111) and (200) over the different catalysts can be associated with their hydrogen adsorption capacities and with their catalytic performances. The catalytic activities are significantly affected by the catalyst pretreatment conditions. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Comparative X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic study on the desulfurization of thiophene by Raney Nickel and rapidly quenched skeletal nickel

The desulfurization of thiophene on Raney Ni and rapidly quenched skeletal Ni (RQ Ni) has been studied in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The Raney Ni or RQ Ni can be approximated as a hydrogen-preadsorbed polycrystalline Ni-alumina composite. It is found that thiophene molecularly adsorbs on Raney Ni or RQ Ni at 103 K. At 173 K, thiophene on alumina is desorbed, while thiophene in direct contact with the metallic Ni in Raney Ni undergoes C-S bond scission, leading to carbonaceous species most probably in the metallocycle-like configuration and atomic sulfur. On RQ Ni, the temperature for thiophene dissociation is about 100 K higher than that on Raney Ni. The lower reactivity of RQ Ni toward thiophene is tentatively attributed to lattice expansion of Ni crystallites in RQ Ni due to rapid quenching. The existence of alumina and hydrogen may block the further cracking of the metallocycle-like species on Raney Ni and RQ Ni at higher temperatures, which has been the dominant reaction pathway on Ni single crystals. By 473 K, the C Is peak has disappeared, leaving nickel sulfide on the surface.

Fabrication of ZnO and its enhancement of charge injection and transport in hybrid organic/inorganic light emitting devices

ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized by hydrolysis in methanol. X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence spectra confirm that good crystallized ZnO nanoparticles were formed. Utilizing those ZnO nanoparticles and poly [2- methoxy-5 - (3',7'-dimethyloctyloxy)- 1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MDMO-PPV), light emitting devices with indium tin oxide (ITO)/poly(3,4-oxyethyleneoxy-thiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)/ ZnO:MDMO-PPV/Al and ITO/PEDOT:PSS/MDMO-PPV/Al structures were fabricated. Electrolummescence (EL) spectra reveal that EL yield of hybrid MDMO-PPV and ZnO nanocrystals devices increased greatly as compared with pristine MDMO-PPV devices. The current-voltage characteristics indicate that addition of ZnO nanocrystals can facilitate electrical injection and charge transport. The decreased energy barrier to electron injection is responsible for the increased efficiency of electron injection. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

噻吩胺基稀土配合物的合成、表征

本论文共合成了两种类型12个稀土金属配合物和一个硅化合物,分别对它们进行了红外、核磁等表征，对其中的9个配合物进行了晶体结构的测定。考察了配体结构和反应条件对所生成的配合物结构的影响，研究了稀土单烷基配合物的反应性，以及稀土双烷基配合物在烷基铝和有机硼盐的共同作用下对丁二烯聚合的催化活性和选择性。主要工作内容和结论如下： (1) 合成了噻吩苯胺配体(HL1)，该配体与(Lu，Y)稀土三烷基化合物反应，通过C–H活化和烷基消除反应制备了稀土(Lu，Y)单烷基配合物1和2，配体以少见的C，N模式配位，S原子并不参与配位。配体(HL1)与Sc三烷基化合物反应制备了配体分别以C, N和N, S配位的双配的Sc配合物5。 (2) 通过改变反应时间和溶剂体系，HL1与稀土钇三烷基化合物反应可得到罕见的由稀土烷基化物和胺化物两部分组成的配合物3，它们通过噻吩环上活化的C原子连接在一起。HL1和Lu(CH2SiMe3)2(THF)2LiCH2SiMe3在甲苯和正己烷溶剂中反应可得到以L12Lu(CH2SiMe3)2为阴离子，Li(THF)4为阳离子的离子对4。 (3) 研究配合物1和2的反应性。1和2与过量的PhSiH3反应得到中心金属与Si元素交换的Si化合物。 (4) 合成了噻吩苯基膦胺配体(HL2-4)和苯基膦胺配体(HL5)配体。HL2-5与稀土(Y, Lu和Sc)三烷基化合物反应制备了稀土双烷基配合物6，7，8，9，10，11和12。进一步研究了稀土金属双烷基配合物6–12对丁二烯的催化特性，发现该系列催化剂具有独特的催化性质，能够催化丁二烯高反1，4-聚合（91.3%），得到的聚合物分子量在1到2万之间，分子量分布较窄(1.4–1.6)。 (5) 研究了金属钇(Y)，镥(Lu)，钪(Sc)三种中心金属对丁二烯聚合活性和反式1，4选择性的影响，发现催化剂对丁二烯聚合活性和反1，4选择性取决于配合物的中心金属原子，其中选择性最高为钪配合物，催化活性最佳的为钇配合物。 (6) 研究了配体HL2-4的N-芳环上的取代基分别为甲基，乙基，异丙基时催化体系对丁二烯反式1，4聚合活性和选择性的影响，发现随着N-芳环上取代基空间位阻的增大，催化剂活性逐渐下降，选择性逐渐增加，但当其取代基为异丙基时，过大的空间位阻导致活性和选择性同时有明显的下降。我们通过改变噻吩基为苯基，比较了相同聚合条件下含噻吩基的稀土双烷基配合物和含苯基的稀土双烷基配合物对丁二烯聚合活性和选择性的影响，发现噻吩环的存在对催化剂的活性和选择性有较大的影响。 (7) 在相同催化剂条件下，研究了不同聚合条件(不同类型的AlR3，不同类型的Borate，Al/Ln比等)对丁二烯反1，4聚合活性和选择性的影响。 我们发现，在AlR3和Borate这两种影响因素中，以烷基铝的类型对催化剂催化活性和选择性的影响最大，而有机硼盐的影响则比较轻微，其中以烷基铝为AliBu3，Borate为[B(C6F5)4][Me2NHPh]时，反1，4选择性为最佳。Al/Ln增大并不能够显著增加催化剂的活性，对选择性的影响也并不明显，相反，随着铝比的增加，聚合过程中的链转移增加，导致分子量下降，对于该系列稀土烷基催化剂，最佳Ln/Al 为10。

On the surface sites Of MOP/SiO2 catalyst under sulfiding conditions: IR spectroscopy and catalytic reactivity studies

The surface sites of MoP/SiO2 catalysts and their evolution under sulfiding conditions were characterized by IR spectroscopy using CO as the probe molecule. The HDS activities of thiophene were measured on the MoP/SiO2 catalyst that was subjected to different sulfidation and reactivation pretreatments. Cus Modelta+ (0 < delta less than or equal to 2) sites are probed on the surface of fresh MoP/SiO2 by molecularly adsorbed CO, exhibiting a characteristic IR band at 2045 cm(-1). The surface of MoP/SiO2 is gradually sulfided in HDS reactions, as revealed by the shift of the IR band at 2045 to ca. 2100 cm(-1). Although the surface of a MoP/SiO2 catalyst becomes partially sulfided, the HDS activity tests show that MoP/SiO2 is fairly stable in the initial stage of the HDS reaction, providing further evidence that molybdenum phosphide is a promising catalytic material for industrial HDS reactions. Two kinds of surface sulfur species are formed on the sulfided catalyst: reversibly and irreversibly bonded sulfur species. The MoP/SiO2 catalyst remains stable in the HDS of thiophene because most sulfur species formed under HDS conditions are reversibly bonded on the catalyst surface. A detrimental effect of presulfidation on the HDS activity is observed for the MoP/SiO2 catalyst treated by H2S/H-2 at temperatures higher than 623 K, which is ascribed to the formation of a large amount of the irreversibly bonded sulfur species. The irreversibly sulfided catalyst can be completely regenerated by an oxidation and a subsequent reduction under mild conditions. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
