The construction by sequential self-assembly process of reproducible, highly stable and pH-responsive redox-active nanostructured arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) integrated with octa(hydroxyethylthio)phthalocyaninatoiron(II) (FeOHETPc) via ester bonds on a gold surface (Au-Cys-SWCNT-FeOHETPc) is investigated and discussed. The successful construction of this electrode is confirmed using atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as well as from the distinct cyclic voltammetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic profiles. The Au-Cys-SWCNT-FeOHETPc electrode exhibited strong dependence on the reaction of the head groups and the pH of the working electrolytes, the surface pKa is estimated as 7.3. The high electron transfer capability of the Au-Cys-SWCNT-FeOHETPc electrode over other electrodes (Au-Cys-SWCNT or the Au-Cys-FeOHETPc or the Au-FeOHETPc) suggests that SWCNT greatly improves the electronic communication between FeOHETPc and the bare gold electrode. The electron transfer rate constant (kapp) of Au-Cys-SWCNT-FeOHETPc in pH 4.8 conditions (∼1.7 × 10−2 cm−2 s−1) over that of the electrode obtained from SWCNT integrated with tetraaminophthalocyninatocobalt(II) (Au-Cys-SWCNT-CoTAPc) (5.1 × 10−3 cm−2 s−1) is attributed to the possible effect of the central metal on the phthalocyanine core and substituents on the peripheral positions of the phthalocyanine rings. We also prove that aligned SWCNT arrays exhibit much faster electron transfer kinetics to redox-active species in solutions compared to the randomly dispersed (drop-dried) SWCNTs. 相似文献

Recently, it has becoming increasingly important to control the organization of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of ω-functionalized thiols for its potential applications in the construction of more complex molecular architectures. In this paper, we report on the spontaneous formation of a SAM of octanedithiol (ODT) as a function of the modification time. Electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, double layer capacitance and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy are used for the characterization of this monolayer. The increase in modification time brings about changes in the octanedithiol self-assembled monolayer (ODT-SAM) reductive desorption voltammograms that indicate an evolution toward a more ordered and compact monolayer. This trend has also been found by following the changes in the electron transfer processes of the redox probe K3Fe(CN)6. In fact, the ODT-SAM formed at low-modification time does not significantly perturb the electrochemical response as it is typical of either a low coverage or of the presence of large defects in the layer. Upon increasing the modification time, the voltammograms of the redox probe adopt a sigmoidal shape indicating the existence of pinholes in the monolayer distributed as an array of microelectrodes. The surface coverage as well as the size and distribution of these pinholes have been determined by the impedance technique that gives a more reliable evaluation of these monolayer structural parameters. 相似文献

The permeabilities of He, H2, N2, O2, CO2, CH4, C2H6, C3H8, and n-C4H10 in poly[1-phenyl-2-[p-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl]acetylene] (PTMSDPA) and poly[diphenylacetylene] (PDPA) are presented and compared to those of poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne) (PTMSP), poly(1-phenyl-1-propyne) (PPP), and polysulfone. Like PTMSP, PTMSDPA, a disubstituted glassy acetylene-based polymer, exhibits higher permeabilities to organic vapors than to permanent gases due to its rigid polyacetylene backbone and bulky side groups, which provide a relatively high fractional free volume (FFV) value of 0.26. Desilylation was performed on PTMSDPA. The resulting material, PDPA, is totally insoluble in common organic solvents, so it has much higher chemical resistance than PTMSDPA. Additionally, due to its insolubility in polymerization solvents, desilylation provides the only known route to high molar mass PDPA. The FFV of the resulting membrane (PDPA) is reduced by approximately 12% relative to that of PTMSDPA. This leads to a decrease in gas permeability values and selectivity of organic vapors relative to nitrogen. For example, the oxygen permeability is reduced from 1200 to 500 Barrers upon desilylation. The pure gas selectivities decrease from 9 to 3 for n-C4H10/N2 and from 26 to 9 for C3H8/N2. 相似文献

Samples of the layered cathode materials, Li[NixLi(1/3−2x/3)Mn(2/3−x/3)]O2 (x = 1/12, 1/4, 5/12, and 1/2), were synthesized at 900 °C. Electrodes of these samples were charged in Li-ion coin cells to remove lithium. The charged electrode materials were rinsed to remove the electrolyte salt and then added, along with EC/DEC solvent or 1 M LiPF6 EC/DEC, to stainless steel accelerating rate calorimetry (ARC) sample holders that were then welded closed. The reactivity of the samples with electrolyte was probed at two states of charge. First, for samples charged to near 4.45 V and second, for samples charged to 4.8 V, corresponding to removal of all mobile lithium from the samples and also concomitant release of oxygen in a plateau near 4.5 V. Li[NixLi(1/3−2x/3)Mn(2/3−x/3)]O2 samples with x = 1/4, 5/12 and 1/2 charged to 4.45 V do not react appreciably till 190 °C in EC/DEC. Li[NixLi(1/3−2x/3)Mn(2/3−x/3)]O2 samples charged to 4.8 V versus Li, across the oxygen release plateau, start to significantly react with EC/DEC at about 130 °C. However, their high reactivity is similar to that of Li0.5CoO2 (4.2 V) with 1 μm particle size. Therefore, Li[NixLi(1/3−2x/3)Mn(2/3−x/3)]O2 samples showing specific capacity of up to 225 mAh/g may be acceptable for replacing LiCoO2 (145 mAh/g to 4.2 V) from a safety point of view, if their particle size is increased. 相似文献

The electrochemical oxidation of p-fluoroanisole (p-FA) in the solvent acetonitrile leads to oligomers and polymers of poly(paraphenylene) type. The electropolymerization process involves coupling reactions of the cation radicals intermediates. The obtained polymers are separated according to their chain length by selective precipitation in cyclohexane and ether. The corresponding structures are characterized by NMR, MS, FTIR, UV and XR diffraction. A preliminary physical study shows that the polymers are photoluminescent with a maximum emission in the near infrared. 相似文献

Horse heart cytochrome c (cyt c) was chemically modified with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) to dissolve it in room temperature ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([emim][TFSI]). The redox response of the modified cyt c, hereafter PEO-cyt c, was analyzed in [emim][TFSI]. PEO modification to the surface of cyt c, which exceeded 60% of the total mass of the PEO-cyt c, was an effective method to solubilize the cyt c. In spite of the high ion density and sufficient ionic conductivity of [emim][TFSI], no redox response of pure PEO-cyt c was detected. However, a reversible redox response of PEO-cyt c was observed after adding a simple electrolyte such as KCl to [emim][TFSI]. The redox response of PEO-cyt c was sensitive to the anion radius of the added salt, and the chloride anion was found to be the best anion species to produce a redox response of PEO-cyt c in [emim][TFSI]. However, above a certain salt concentration, the resulting increase in solution viscosity would suppress the redox reaction. The results strongly indicate that the chloride anions, because of their mobility in the polypeptide matrix, compensate the charge change of heme during the electron transfer reaction. Larger anions did not show such an effect due to sterical restrictions on the migration through the protein shell to the heme pocket of cyt c. 相似文献

This report seeks to address the role of hydrogen bonding with Brønsted acids and bases in proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) as it pertains to concerted or stepwise pathways of quinone (Q) and hydroquinone (QH2) electrochemistry. This study was performed using a series of techniques that included cyclic voltammetry (CV), digital simulations, computational chemistry and 1H NMR. Hydrogen bonding was inferred by a decrease in diffusion coefficient (D) values measured using a pulsed gradient echo- (PGE-) 1H NMR technique. Changes of 40.8% and 37.9% in D values were only noted after the addition of two equivalents of acetate to 1,4-hydroquinone (1,4-QH2) and catechol (1,2-QH2), respectively. In contrast, the D values for the addition of selected amines (pyridine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine and triethylamine) changed only 3.2% on average. Quantum mechanical calculations were conducted to determine the pKa of all quinoid species to serve as a starting point for the determination of equilibrium constants in voltammetric simulations. Simulations indicate that 1,4-benzoquinone undergoes stepwise electron-proton transfer upon addition of acetic acid, N-ethyldiisopropylammonium perchlorate and pyridinium nitrate and were simulated without the presence of hydrogen bonds. The QH2 compounds show stepwise proton-electron transfers after addition of the both the conjugate amines and acetate. 相似文献

A potentiometric aluminium sensor, based on the use N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine (NBSC) as a neutral carrier, in poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) matrix, is reported. Effect of various plasticizers; 2-nitrophenyloctylether (o-NPOE), tri-n-butyl phosphates (TBP), dioctylpththalate (DOP) & chloronapthalen (CN), and anion excluder, sodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB) was studied. The best performance was obtained with a membrane composition of PVC: o-NPOE: NBSC: NaTPB ratio (w/w; mg) of 150:150:5:5. The sensor exhibits significantly enhanced selectivity toward Al3+ ions over the concentration range 1.0 × 10−8-1.0 × 10−1 M with a lower detection limit of 5.0 × 10−9 M and a Nernstian slope of 20.3 ± 0.1 mV decade−1 of activity. Influence of the membrane composition and possible interfering ions was investigated on the response properties of the electrode. Fast and stable response, good reproducibility and long-term stability are demonstrated. The sensor shows response time of <5 s and can be used for about 3 months without any considerable divergence in their potential response. Selectivity coefficients determined by matched potential method (MPM) indicate high selectivity for aluminium (III) ion. The proposed electrode shows fairly good discrimination of aluminium (III) from many metal ions. It was successfully applied for direct determination of aluminium (III) in biological, industrial and environmental samples. The electrode can be used in the pH range of 2.0-9.0 and mixtures containing up to 20% (v/v) non-aqueous content. It was used as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of aluminium ion vs. EDTA. 相似文献

Two methods have been compared for preparing artificially phase-separated two-component SAMs on Au(1 1 1) composed of 11-amino-1-undecanethiolates (AUTe) and 10-carboxyl-1-decanethiolates (CDTe), which would form, thermodynamically, a homogeneously mixed binary SAMs. The first method starts with the formation of a phase-separated binary SAM of AUTe and 2-hydroxy-1-ethanethiolate (HETe) as a template of the artificially phase-separated SAM, followed by the selective desorption of HETe domains and succeeding filling of the vacancy with CDTe. The second method utilizes fluoren-9-ylmethyl N-(11-mercaptoundecyl) carbamate (FMUCe) instead of 11-amino-1-undecanethiol in preparing the template. After the filling with CDTe, the 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group is removed to obtain AUTe domains. Both methods yield artificially phase-separated binary SAMs having AUTe domains of tens nanometer across. The molecularly flat SAM surface with nanometer-scale domains of different acid-base and electrostatic properties are thus created. For preparing binary SAMs with a higher degree of phase separation, the second method is a better choice; a more clear-cut phase separation is achieved. 相似文献

Variable temperature13C MAS NMR spectra are reported for13CO-enriched KFe2Mn(CO)12 as a solid and also as dispersed clusters on a carbon support. The spectrum of KFe2Mn(CO)12 at 300 K agrees with the proposed structure for this cluster and shows that the cluster is static. Two bridging carbonyl resonances are clearly resolved and, by comparison with13C MAS NMR spectra of Mn2(CO)10 and Fe2(CO)9, all terminal resonances for the cluster can be assigned. When the cluster is supported on carbon, two broad resonances are observed at room temperature which are assignable to KFe2Mn(CO)12 and a decomposition product, Mn2(CO)10. The carbonyl ligands in both supported clusters are completely averaged, and KFe2Mn(CO)12 on the carbon surface demonstrates fluxional behavior similar to that observed for the cluster in solution. For this fluxional process, activation energies of 0.6 kcal/mol and 0.5 kcal/mol are estimated for carbon-supported KFe2Mn(CO)12 and Mn2(CO)10, respectively. 相似文献

QO-58 (5-(2,6-dichloro-5-fluoropyridin-3-yl)-3-phenyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazolol[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-one) has been regarded to be an activator of KV7 channels with analgesic properties. However, whether and how the presence of this compound can result in any modifications of other types of membrane ion channels in native cells are not thoroughly investigated. In this study, we investigated its perturbations on M-type K+ current (IK(M)), Ca2+-activated K+ current (IK(Ca)), large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels, and erg-mediated K+ current (IK(erg)) identified from pituitary tumor (GH3) cells. Addition of QO-58 can increase the amplitude of IK(M) and IK(Ca) in a concentration-dependent fashion, with effective EC50 of 3.1 and 4.2 μM, respectively. This compound could shift the activation curve of IK(M) toward a leftward direction with being void of changes in the gating charge. The strength in voltage-dependent hysteresis (Vhys) of IK(M) evoked by upright triangular ramp pulse (Vramp) was enhanced by adding QO-58. The probabilities of M-type K+ (KM) channels that will be open increased upon the exposure to QO-58, although no modification in single-channel conductance was seen. Furthermore, GH3-cell exposure to QO-58 effectively increased the amplitude of IK(Ca) as well as enhanced the activity of BKCa channels. Under inside-out configuration, QO-58, applied at the cytosolic leaflet of the channel, activated BKCa-channel activity, and its increase could be attenuated by further addition of verruculogen, but not by linopirdine (10 μM). The application of QO-58 could lead to a leftward shift in the activation curve of BKCa channels with neither change in the gating charge nor in single-channel conductance. Moreover, cell exposure of QO-58 (10 μM) resulted in a minor suppression of IK(erg) amplitude in response to membrane hyperpolarization. The docking results also revealed that there are possible interactions of the QO-58 molecule with the KCNQ or KCa1.1 channel. Overall, dual activation of IK(M) and IK(Ca) caused by the presence of QO-58 eventually may have high impacts on the functional activity (e.g., anti-nociceptive effect) residing in electrically excitable cells. Care must be exercised when interpreting data generated with QO-58 as it is not entirely KCNQ/KV7 selective. 相似文献

AbstractAbstractRelaxor ferroelectric Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O3 (PSN) superfine ceramics were fabricated by spark plasma sintering process and subjected to an annealing in oxygen ambience at a low temperature of 500°C. The microstructure of the PSN ceramics was examined by X‐ray diffraction and scanning and transmission electron microscopy, while the dielectric properties were measured in the range of 25–200°C. The dielectric measurements revealed a reverse change in the frequency dispersion ΔT and diffusive factor λ as annealing extended. Transmission electron microscopy observation and conductivity measurement revealed that the uncommon performance in relaxor properties could be attributed to the complex effects of oxygen vacancies and domain structures induced by the annealing. 相似文献

We have investigated the effects of dipping time, solution concentration and solvent type on the formation of self-assembled
monolayers with aminosiloxane molecules (i.e., N-(3 trimethoxysilylpropyl)diethylenetriamine (TPDA)) on the Si(001) surface. Studies performed with an ellipsometer showed
that monolayers with a thickness of about 1.2 nm were formed when the dipping time is about 2 h, while multilayer were observed
for longer time periods. The effect of the TPDA concentration on the thickness of the deposited layer was not very profound,
however, the contact angle data exhibit importance of concentration on the surface coverage. The type of the solvent used
in the formation of the monolayers was found an important parameter. Monolayers were formed with solvent having larger dielectric
constants. Relatively thick multilayer was observed when benzene was used as the solvent, due to its quite low dielectric
constant (hydrophobicity). 相似文献

We present the mechanism for the synthesis of a layered Li(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O2 compound by a modified radiated gel method. Pure-phase Li(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O2 material was achieved when the polymer gel was calcined at 900 °C between 15 and 30 h. The unit cell parameter c decreased, and a varied slightly with increased sintering time. Electrochemical characterization revealed that the optimized sample (25 h) had a high initial discharge capacity of 188 mAh/g (2.8-4.5 V, 20 mA/g), an excellent capacity retention of 90.1% after 30 cycles and a good rate performance. 相似文献
