One-step polyelectrolyte-based route to well-dispersed gold nanoparticles: Synthesis and insight

Polyelectrolytes have been widely used as building blocks for the creation of thickness-controllable multilayer thin films in a layer-by-layer fashion, and also been used as flocculants or stabilizer of colloids. This paper reports novel finding that a kind of polyelectrolyte, polyamines, can facilely induce HAuCl4 to spontaneously form well-stabilized gold nanoparticles without the additional step of introducing a reducing reagent during the elevation of temperature, even at room temperature in some cases. The polymer chain-confined microenvironment and the acid-induced evolution of amide of such kind of polyelectrolyte solution play an important role in the nucleation and growth of gold nanoparticles. This method would not only be helpful to gain an insight into the formation of gold nanoparticles in polyelectrolyte systems, but also provide a novel and facile one-step polyelectrolyte-based synthetic route to polyelectrolyte protected gold nanoparticles in aqueous media for potential applications. More importantly, this strategy will be general to the preparation of other nanoparticles.

Effects of SBS addition and temperature on 3D siliceous mesostructured cellular foam

Siliceous mesostructured cellular foam with three-dimensional (3D) wormhole structure (MSU-type) is prepared by using triblock copolymer (poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b- styrene), SBS) with both hydrophobic head and tail group as template in strong acid condition via microemulsion method. The effects of SBS addition and temperature on the morphology and physicochemical properties, such as pore diameters, surface areas and pore volumes of the materials have been investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis. The results show that the pore volumes, pore sizes and specific surface areas depend strongly on the SBS amount and forming micelles temperature. Moreover, the materials obtained with high wall thickness exhibit a relatively good thermal stability.

Synthesis, crystal structure, and magnetic properties of {[Cu(oxbe)]Mn(H2O)[Cu(oxbe)(DMF)]}(n)center dot nDMF center dot nH(2)O: From dissymmetrical mononuclear entities to a 3D heterometallic supramolecular coordination polymer

Self-assembly of the building block [Cu(oxbe)](-) with Mn(II) led to a novel coordination polymer {[Cu(oxbe)]Mn(H2O)(Cu(oxbe)(DMF)]}(n).nDMF.nH(2)O, where H(3)oxbe is a new dissymmetrical ligand N-benzoato-N'-(2-aminoethyl)-oxamido and DMF = dimethylformamide. The crystal forms in the triclinic system, space group P(1)over-bar, with a = 9.260(4) angstorm, b = 12.833(5) angstrom, c = 15.274(6) angstrom , alpha = 76.18(3)degrees, beta = 82.7(3)degrees, gamma = 82.31(3)degrees, and Z = 2. The crystal structure of the title complex reveals that the two-dimensional bimetallic layers are constructed of (CuMnII)-Mn-II-Cu-II chains linked together by carboxylate bridge and hydrogen bonds help to produce a novel three-dimensional channel-like structure. The magnetic susceptibility measurements (5-300 K) were analyzed by means of the Hamiltonian (H)over-cap = -2J(S)over-cap (Mn)((S)over-cap(Cu1) + (S)over-cap(Cu2)), leading to J = -17.4 cm(-1).

A novel 3D network coordination polymer consisting of paddlewheel Co-3 clusters connected by PO4 and 4-pyridinecarboxylate

The synthesis, structural characterization and preliminary magnetic studies of a novel coordination polymer with paddlewheel Co-3 clusters are reported firstly. In the polymer, Co-3 clusters are covalently linked through PO4 tetrahedra and 4-pyridinecarboxylate (4-pya) ligands into interpenetrated three-dimensional network.

A novel route for the preparation of CdS nanocrystal-poly(acrylic acid) composites using gamma-radiation

CdS nanocrystals were synthesized through AOT/heptane/H2O reverse micelles. New stable reverse mikelles were obtained by adding an appropriate amount of acrylic. acid monomer, CdS nanocrystal-poly(acrylic acid) composites were synthesized by gamma-radiation with a reverse mi'celle route at room temperature. The US nanocrystals with narrow size distribution were, found to be dispersed homogeneously in the poly(acrylic acid) matrix. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Synthesis, structure, and ring-opening polymerization of macrocyclic aromatic esters: A new route to high-performance polyarylates

A series of macrocyclic arylate dimers have been efficiently synthesized by an interfacial polycondensation of o-phthaloyl dichloride with bisphenols. A combination of GPC, FAB MS, and H-1 and C-13 NMR unambiguously confirmed the cyclic nature. Although single-crystal X-ray analysis of one such macrocycle reveals no severe strain on the cyclic structure, these macrocycles can undergo facile melt polymerization to give high molecular weight polyarylates.

Reactions of C-60 with R(3)SnH: A new synthetic route to C-60(RH)(n) and the property of C-60 to catalyze radical reactions

A new method for the preparation of polyalkyl and polyarenefullerene derivatives C-60(RH)(n)(R=Bu,n=1-3; R=Ph,n=1-10) by the reaction of C-60 with organotin hydride in toluene is described. Another series of products of stannanes R(a)Sn(b)H(c) (R=Bu, a=3-8, b=1-4, c=0-3 R=Ph, a=3-11, b=1-5, c=0-4) were also obtained, which shows that C-60 can catalyze polymerization of organic-tin. These products were determined by mass and infrared spectrometry. And the possible reaction mechanisms are discussed.

Comparative study on the doping effect of 3d elements in Bi(1.5)Pb(0.2)Sr(2)Ca(2)Cu(2.8)M(0.2)O(y) (M=Sc,Ti,V,Cr,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni, or Zn)

With XRD, R-T, and ac chi measurements a comparative study on the doping effects of 3d elements in Bi(1.5)Pb(0.2)Sr(2)Ca(2)Cu(2.8)M(0.2)O(y) (M = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, or Zn) has been carried out. The effects of the former five members are significantly different, both on phase formed and on T-c, from the latter four. It seems that the effect on phase stabilization correlates with the valency of the doped cation. In connection with the instability of the 2223 phase, the correlation has been discussed.
