Comparing the corrosivity of acidic species in petroleum fractions by raman spectroscopy,energy-dispersive spectrum and scanning electron microscopy

The main object of this work was to compare the corrosion powers of acidic species: naphthenic acid, fatty acid and aromatic acid which were found in petroleum fraction. They were blended into base oils to formulate three simulate oils (E, F and G) with the same TAN values of 2.3 mg KOH/g. AISI 316 steel surfaces immersed in oils were measured by Raman spectroscopy, energydispersive spectrum and scanning electron microscopy after 24, 48, 72 h to evaluate their corrosion. From the Raman images, the corrosion products were confirmed. Besides goethite (α-Fe(OOH)) in corrosion product E at 48 hours; magnetite (Fe₃O₄) in F at 24 hours; and hematite (α-Fe₂O₃ and α-Fe₂O₃) in G at 72hours, there were disordered carbons on steel E and ferric benzoate film on steel G. The contents of elements from EDS have markedly different characteristics, indicating that dominant corrosion products on steel samples resulted from three acidic species are different. The morphology in SEM also corroborated above data that corrosion products have difference. Combining the data of three measurements, the rank of corrosion power based on the formations of ferric oxides was determined: fatty acid > naphthenic acid > aromatic acid.     

Performance evaluation of asphalt containing layered double hydroxides with different zinc ratio in the host layer

The effects of five layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with different zinc ratio on the physical and rheological properties, chemical components, and anti-UV aging performance of asphalt were evaluated. Results show that LDHs improve the deformation resistance of asphalt at high temperature. After UV aging, LDH-modified asphalts show the smaller changes of physical and rheological properties and chemical components in comparison with asphalt, indicating the improved UV aging resistance. By comparison, the LDHs with higher ratio of zinc in the layers have the more outstanding UV reflection ability, leading to a beneficial effect in improving UV aging resistance of asphalt.     

An Unexpected Construction of 2‐Arylquinolines from N‐Cinnamylanilines through sp3 C?H Aerobic Oxidation Induced by a Catalytic Radical Cation Salt

An unexpected reaction of cinnamylanilines was achieved through the radical cation salt‐induced aerobic oxidation of sp³ C H bonds, providing a series of 2‐arylquinolines. The mechanistic study shows that the cinnamylaniline was oxidized to an imine, which was attacked by the aniline generated through decomposition of the corresponding imine. After further intramolecular cyclization and aromatization, 2‐arylquinolines were obtained. This reaction provides a new method to construct 2‐arylquinolines from readily accessible starting materials.

     

Enantioselective Construction of Cyclic Enaminone‐Based 3‐Substituted 3‐Amino‐2‐oxindole Scaffolds via Catalytic Asymmetric Additions of Isatin‐Derived Imines

The first catalytic asymmetric construction of the cyclic enaminone‐based 3‐substituted 3‐amino‐2‐oxindole scaffold with potential bioactivity has been developed via chiral phosphoric acid‐catalyzed enantioselective addition reactions of cyclic enaminones to isatin‐derived imines, which afforded a series of cyclic enaminone‐based 3‐substituted 3‐amino‐2‐oxindoles in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield, 97% ee). The investigation of the reaction mechanism suggested that it was facilitated by a dual hydrogen‐bonding activation mode between the two substrates and the chiral phosphoric acid. Besides, this method could be utilized for a large‐scale synthesis with maintained enantioselectivity. This approach will not only offer a useful method for enantioselective construction of the cyclic enaminone‐based 3‐substituted 3‐amino‐2‐oxindole scaffold, but also enrich the research on catalytic asymmetric addition reactions of isatin‐derived imines by using electron‐rich olefins as nucleophiles. More importantly, a preliminary evaluation on the cytotoxicity of some selected products revealed that two of the enantio‐pure compounds exhibited moderate to strong cytotoxicity to A549, 786‐0, ECA109 and BT474 cancer cell lines.
