Because of the coexistence of C-O and C-C bonds and their complex combinations in the lignin macromolecular network, a plausible roadmap for developing a lignin catalytic decomposition process could be developed by exploring the transformation mechanisms of various model compounds. Herein, decomposition of a lignin model compound, 2-phenoxyacetophenone (2-PAP), was investigated over several ce-sium-exchanged polyoxometalate (Cs-POM) catalysts. Decomposition of 2-PAP can follow two dif-ferent mechanisms: an active hydrogen transfer mechanism or an oxonium cation mechanism. The mechanism for most reactions depends on the competition between the acidity and redox proper-ties of the catalysts. The catalysts of POMs perform the following functions: promoting active hy-drogen liberated from ethanol and causing formation of and then temporarily stabilizing oxonium cations from 2-PAP. The use of Cs-PMo, which with strong redox ability, enhances hydrogen libera-tion and promotes liberated hydrogen transfer to the reaction intermediates. As a consequence, complete conversion of 2-PAP (〉99%) with excellent selectivities to the desired products (98.6% for phenol and 91.1% for acetophenone) can be achieved.展开更多

Characterizations such as FTIR, DRS,wide-angle XRD, Nadsorption–desorption and XPS were applied to analyze the morphology and Keggin structure of the catalysts. In ECODS with hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant, it was found that ILs with longer alkyl chains in the cationic moiety had a better effect on the removal of dibenzothiophene. The desulfurization could reach 100% under optimal conditions, and GC–MS analysis was employed to detect the oxidized product after the reaction. Factors affecting the desulfurization efficiencies were discussed, and a possible mechanism was proposed. In addition, cyclic experiments were also conducted to investigate the recyclability of the supported catalyst. The catalytic activity of [Cmim]PMoO/Am TiOonly dropped from 100% to 92.9% after ten cycles, demonstrating the good recycling performance of the catalyst and its potential industrial application.展开更多

The structure of the title compound was determined through single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in monoclinic system with P21/n space group. The crystal data are a = 18.9529(4), b = 26.4444(5), c = 19.0985(4) A, β = 90.132(6)o, V = 9572.1(3) A^3, Z = 4, Dc= 2.203 g·cm^(–1), μ = 14.956 mm^(–1), F(000) = 6192, S = 1.098, the final R = 0.0859 and w R(I 〉 2σ(I)) = 0.2100.

They were characterized by means of elemental analyses, IR spectrometry and X-ray diffraction. The images of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and the results of calculation by using the Scherrer equation for the line widths of the XRD patterns were used to estimate the average particle size of the powder products, which was 40 nm. The results show that the nanoparticle size was affected by starting materials′ concentrations. The particles had a small size and a narrow distribution, when the concentrations of H 3PMo 12O 40·24H 2O and Co(en) 3I 3·H 2O were around 1.7×10 -4 and 1.0×10 -3 mol/L, respectively. When the concentration was increased, there was no significant increase in the particle size, but more polydisperse Co(en) 3(PMo 12O 40) (+, -) were obtained. In poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) with an average molecular weight(M W) of 600 g/mol and containing LiClO 4[n(O)/n(Li)=100∶1] as the supporting electrolyte, the conductivity of the composite system increases upon the addition of PMo 12-Co(+ or -) nanoparticles, which was measured by the a.c. impedance technique. The interactions among PEG, LiClO 4, PMo 12, and Co can be used to explain that the PMo 12-Co(+ or -) nanoparticles could promote the conductivity of the PEG-LiClO4-PMo12-Co system.展开更多

The prepared FeШGluS iW was characterized using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy,thermogravimetry,Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy,ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,and field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that FeШGluS iW has the formula [Fe(C5H8NO4)(H2O)]2SiW 12O40?13H2O,with glutamate moiety and Keggin-structured SiW 12O404- heteropolyanion. The catalyst showed high catalytic activity in 4-CP degradation in the dark and under irradiation. Under the conditions of 4-CP 100 mg/L,FeШGluS iW 1.0 g/L,H2O2 20 mmol/L,and pH = 6.5,4-CP was completely decomposed in 40 min in the dark and in 15 min under irradiation. When the reaction time was prolonged to 2 h,the corresponding total organic carbon removals under dark and irradiated conditions were ca. 27% and 72%,respectively. The high catalytic activity of FeI IIGluS iW is resulted from hydrogen bonding of H2O2 on the FeI IIGluS iW surface. The enhanced degradation of 4-CP under irradiation arises from simultaneous oxidation of 4-CP through Fenton-like and photocatalytic processes respectively catalyzed by ferric iron and the SiW 12O404- hetropolyanion in FeШGluS iW.展开更多

In this work, a strategy by using polyoxometalates(POMs) as the ligands is proposed to engineer the surface and electronic properties of Pt/CNT catalysts toward the enhanced hydrogen generation rate and durability. Three kinds of POMs, i.e., silicotungstic acid(STA), phosphotungstic acid(PTA)and molybdophosphoric acid(PMA), are comparatively studied, among which the STA shows positive effects on the catalytic activity and durability. A catalyst structure-performance relationship is established by a combination of kinetic and isotopic analyses with multiple characterization techniques, such as HAADF-STEM, EDS, Raman spectroscopy and XPS. It is shown that the STA compared to the other two POMs can increase the Pt binding energy and thus promote the reaction. The insights demonstrated here could open a new avenue for boosting the reaction by employing the POMs as the ligands to engineer the catalyst electronic properties.展开更多

However, the direct extractive desulfurization of diesel oil by DESs cannot meet the government’s standard. In this work, amphiphilic polyoxometalates were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and mass spectrometry.The oxidative desulfurization results showed that benzothiophene(BT) could be completely removed by employing a [(CH)P(CH)]PMoO, DES(ChCl/2 Ac) and HOsystem. It was also found that the organic cation of catalysts played a positive role in oxidative desulfurization. The reaction conditions, such as reaction temperature and time, the amount of catalyst and DES and HO/S(O/S) molar ratio, were optimized. Different sulfides were tested to determine the desulfurization selectivity of the optimal reaction system, and it was found that 97.2% of dibenzothiophene(DBT) could be removed followed by 80.7% of 4-MDBT and 76.0% of 4,6-DMDBT. After reaction, the IR spectra showed that the catalyst [(CH)P(CH)]PMoOwas stable during the reaction process and the oxidative product was dibenzothiophene sulfone(DBTO). Furthermore, the catalyst can be regenerated and recycled for four runs with little loss of activity.展开更多

文摘Bimetallic oxides are attractive anode materials for lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)due to their large theoretical capacity.However,the low conductivity,short cycle life,and poor rate capability are the bottlenecks for their further applications.To overcome above issues,the basket-like polymolybdate(NiP_(6)Mo_(18))and carbon nanotubes(CNTs)were uniformly embedded on the urchin-shaped CoNiO_(2)nanospheres to yield a ternary composites CoNiO_(2)@NiP_(6)Mo_(18)/CNTs via electrostatic adsorption.The multi-level morphology of urchin spinules accelerates the diffusion rate of Li^(+);CNT improves the conductivity and enhances cycle stability of the material;and heteropoly acid contributes more redox activity centres.Thus,CoNiO_(2)@NiP_(6)Mo_(18)/CNTs as an anode of LIBs exhibits a high initial capacity(1396.7 mA h g^(−1)at 0.1 A g^(−1)),long-term cycling stability(750.2 mA h g^(−1)after 300 cycles),and rate performance(450.3 mA h g^(−1)at 2 A g^(−1)),which are superior to reported metallic oxides anode of LIBs.The density functional theory(DFT)and kinetic mechanism suggest that CoNiO_(2)@NiP_(6)Mo_(18)/CNTs delivers an outstanding pseudocapacitance and rapid Li^(+)diffusion behaviors,which is due to the rich surface area of the urchin-like CoNiO_(2)with the uniform embeddedness of NiP_(6)Mo_(18)and CNTs.This study provides a new idea for optimizing the performance of bimetallic oxides and developing high-rate lithium-ion battery composites.

文摘Solar vapor generation(SVC)represents a promising technique for seawater desalination to alleviate the global water crisis and energy shortage.One of its main bottleneck problems is that the evaporation efficiency and stability are limited by salt crystallization under high-salinity brines.Herein,we demonstrate that the 3D porous melamine-foam(MF)wrapped by a type of self-assembling composite materials based on reduced polyoxometalates(i.e.heteropoly blue,HPB),oleic acid(OA),and polypyrrole(PPy)(labeled with MF@HPB-PPy_(n)-OA)can serve as efficient and stable SVC material at high salinity.Structural characterizations of MF@HPB-PPy_(n)-OA indicate that both hydrophilic region of HPBs and hydrophobic region of OA co-exist on the surface of composite materials,optimizing the hydrophilic and hydrophobic interfaces of the SVC materials,and fully exerting its functionality for ultrahigh water-evaporation and anti-salt fouling.The optimal MF@HPB-PPy_(10)-OA operates continuously and stably for over 100 h in 10wt%brine.Furthermore,MF@HPB-PPy_(10)-OA accomplishes complete salt-water separation of 10wt%brine with 3.3kgm^(-2)h^(-1)under 1-sun irradiation,yielding salt harvesting efficiency of 96.5%,which belongs to the record high of high-salinity systems reported so far and is close to achieving zero liquid discharge.Moreover,the low cost of MF@HPB-PPy_(10)-OA(2.56$m^(-2))suggests its potential application in the practical SVC technique.

文摘Solid-state electrolytes have attracted considerable attention in new energyrelated devices due to their high safety and broad application platform.Polyoxometalates(POMs)are a kind of molecular-level cluster compounds with unique structures.In recent years,owing to their abundant physicochemical properties(including high ionic conductivity and reversible redox activity),POMs have shown great potential in becoming a new generation of solid-state electrolytes.In this review,an overview is investigated about how POMs have evolved as ion-conducting materials from basic research to novel solid-state electrolytes in energy devices.First,some expressive POM-based ion-conducting materials in recent years are introduced and classified,mainly inspecting their structural and functional relationship.After that,it is further focused on the application of these ionconducting electrolytes in the fields of proton exchange membranes,supercapacitors,and ion batteries.In addition,some properties of POMs(such as inherent dimension,capable of forming stable hydrogen bonds,and reversible bonding to water molecules)enable these functional POM-based electrolytes to be employed in innovative applications such as ion selection,humidity sensing,and smart materials.Finally,some fundamental recommendations are given on the current opportunities and challenges of POM-based ion-conducting electrolytes.

文摘Aggregation of polyoxometalates(POM)is largely responsible for the reduced performance of POM-based energy-storage systems.To address this challenge,here,the precise confinement of single Keggin-type POM molecule in a porous carbon(PC)of unimodal super-micropore(micro-PC)is realized.Such precise single-molecule confinement enables sufficient activity center exposure and maximum electron-transfer from micro-PC to POM,which well stabilizes the electron-accepting molecules and thoroughly activates its inherent multi-electron redox-activity.In particular,the redox-activities and electron-accepting properties of the confined POM molecule are revealed to be super-micropore pore size-dependent by experiment and spectroscopy as well as theoretical calculation.Meanwhile,the molecularly dispersed POM molecules confined steadily in the“cage”of micro-PC exhibit unprecedented large-negative-potential stability and multiple-peak redox-activity at an ultra-low loading of~11.4 wt%.As a result,the fabricated solid-state supercapacitor achieves a remarkable areal capacitance,ultrahigh energy and power density of 443 mF cm^(-2),0.12 mWh cm^(-2)and 21.1 mW cm^(-2),respectively.This work establishes a novel strategy for the precise confinement of single POM molecule,providing a versatile approach to inducing the intrinsic activity of POMs for advanced energy-storage systems.

文摘Production o f aromatics from lignin has attracted much attention. Because of the coexistence of C-O and C-C bonds and their complex combinations in the lignin macromolecular network, a plausible roadmap for developing a lignin catalytic decomposition process could be developed by exploring the transformation mechanisms of various model compounds. Herein, decomposition of a lignin model compound, 2-phenoxyacetophenone (2-PAP), was investigated over several ce-sium-exchanged polyoxometalate (Cs-POM) catalysts. Decomposition of 2-PAP can follow two dif-ferent mechanisms: an active hydrogen transfer mechanism or an oxonium cation mechanism. The mechanism for most reactions depends on the competition between the acidity and redox proper-ties of the catalysts. The catalysts of POMs perform the following functions: promoting active hy-drogen liberated from ethanol and causing formation of and then temporarily stabilizing oxonium cations from 2-PAP. The use of Cs-PMo, which with strong redox ability, enhances hydrogen libera-tion and promotes liberated hydrogen transfer to the reaction intermediates. As a consequence, complete conversion of 2-PAP (〉99%) with excellent selectivities to the desired products (98.6% for phenol and 91.1% for acetophenone) can be achieved.

文摘Supported ionic liquid(IL) catalysts [Cmim]PMoO/Am TiO(amorphous TiO) were synthesized through a one-step method for extraction coupled catalytic oxidative desulfurization(ECODS) system. Characterizations such as FTIR, DRS,wide-angle XRD, Nadsorption–desorption and XPS were applied to analyze the morphology and Keggin structure of the catalysts. In ECODS with hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant, it was found that ILs with longer alkyl chains in the cationic moiety had a better effect on the removal of dibenzothiophene. The desulfurization could reach 100% under optimal conditions, and GC–MS analysis was employed to detect the oxidized product after the reaction. Factors affecting the desulfurization efficiencies were discussed, and a possible mechanism was proposed. In addition, cyclic experiments were also conducted to investigate the recyclability of the supported catalyst. The catalytic activity of [Cmim]PMoO/Am TiOonly dropped from 100% to 92.9% after ten cycles, demonstrating the good recycling performance of the catalyst and its potential industrial application.

The structure of the title compound was determined through single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in monoclinic system with P21/n space group. The crystal data are a = 18.9529(4), b = 26.4444(5), c = 19.0985(4) A, β = 90.132(6)o, V = 9572.1(3) A^3, Z = 4, Dc= 2.203 g·cm^(–1), μ = 14.956 mm^(–1), F(000) = 6192, S = 1.098, the final R = 0.0859 and w R(I 〉 2σ(I)) = 0.2100. Supramolecular cations are constructed through strong N–H…O hydrogen bonding interaction between the six oxygen atoms of [18]crown-6 molecule and nitrogen atom of(4-bromoanilimiun) cation. Three kinds of different arranged supramolecular cations exist in the title compound, which are filled into the large space formed by [PMo(12)O40] polyoxoanions.

文摘Polyoxometallates Co(en) 3PMo 12O 40·8H 2O(+,-)[abbreviated as PMo 12-Co(+,-)], nanoparticles were synthesized by the chemical precipitation reaction at room temperature for the first time. They were characterized by means of elemental analyses, IR spectrometry and X-ray diffraction. The images of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and the results of calculation by using the Scherrer equation for the line widths of the XRD patterns were used to estimate the average particle size of the powder products, which was 40 nm. The results show that the nanoparticle size was affected by starting materials′ concentrations. The particles had a small size and a narrow distribution, when the concentrations of H 3PMo 12O 40·24H 2O and Co(en) 3I 3·H 2O were around 1.7×10 -4 and 1.0×10 -3 mol/L, respectively. When the concentration was increased, there was no significant increase in the particle size, but more polydisperse Co(en) 3(PMo 12O 40) (+, -) were obtained. In poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) with an average molecular weight(M W) of 600 g/mol and containing LiClO 4[n(O)/n(Li)=100∶1] as the supporting electrolyte, the conductivity of the composite system increases upon the addition of PMo 12-Co(+ or -) nanoparticles, which was measured by the a.c. impedance technique. The interactions among PEG, LiClO 4, PMo 12, and Co can be used to explain that the PMo 12-Co(+ or -) nanoparticles could promote the conductivity of the PEG-LiClO4-PMo12-Co system.

文摘A novel iron-glutamate-silicotungstate ternary complex(FeШGluS iW) was synthesized from ferric chloride(FeI II),glutamic acid(Glu),and silicotungstic acid(SiW),and used as a heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst for 4-chlorophenol(4-CP) degradation at neutral pH value. The prepared FeШGluS iW was characterized using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy,thermogravimetry,Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy,ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,and field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that FeШGluS iW has the formula [Fe(C5H8NO4)(H2O)]2SiW 12O40?13H2O,with glutamate moiety and Keggin-structured SiW 12O404- heteropolyanion. The catalyst showed high catalytic activity in 4-CP degradation in the dark and under irradiation. Under the conditions of 4-CP 100 mg/L,FeШGluS iW 1.0 g/L,H2O2 20 mmol/L,and pH = 6.5,4-CP was completely decomposed in 40 min in the dark and in 15 min under irradiation. When the reaction time was prolonged to 2 h,the corresponding total organic carbon removals under dark and irradiated conditions were ca. 27% and 72%,respectively. The high catalytic activity of FeI IIGluS iW is resulted from hydrogen bonding of H2O2 on the FeI IIGluS iW surface. The enhanced degradation of 4-CP under irradiation arises from simultaneous oxidation of 4-CP through Fenton-like and photocatalytic processes respectively catalyzed by ferric iron and the SiW 12O404- hetropolyanion in FeШGluS iW.
文摘With the increasing concerns to energy shortage and environmental problems in modern society,the development of cheap,clean,and sustainable energy alternatives has been attracting tremendous attention globally.Among various strategies of renewable energy exploration,solar-driven water splitting into its compositional elements H2 and O2 is an ideal approach to convert and store renewable solar energy into chemical bonds.In recent few decades,as an emerging new type of catalysts,polyoxometalates(POMs)have been widely utilized for water splitting due to their versatile synthetic methodology and highly tunable physicochemical and photochemical properties.This critical review addresses the research advances of light-driven hydrogen evolution using polyoxometalate-based catalysts,including plenary POMs,transition-metal-substituted POMs,POM@MOF composites,and POM-semiconductor hybrids,under UV,near UV and visible light irradiation.In addition,the catalytic mechanism for each reaction system has been thoroughly discussed and summarized.Finally,a comprehensive outlook of this research area is also prospected.

文摘Heterogeneously catalyzed hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane is a remarkable structure sensitive reaction. In this work, a strategy by using polyoxometalates(POMs) as the ligands is proposed to engineer the surface and electronic properties of Pt/CNT catalysts toward the enhanced hydrogen generation rate and durability. Three kinds of POMs, i.e., silicotungstic acid(STA), phosphotungstic acid(PTA)and molybdophosphoric acid(PMA), are comparatively studied, among which the STA shows positive effects on the catalytic activity and durability. A catalyst structure-performance relationship is established by a combination of kinetic and isotopic analyses with multiple characterization techniques, such as HAADF-STEM, EDS, Raman spectroscopy and XPS. It is shown that the STA compared to the other two POMs can increase the Pt binding energy and thus promote the reaction. The insights demonstrated here could open a new avenue for boosting the reaction by employing the POMs as the ligands to engineer the catalyst electronic properties.

文摘Deep eutectic solvents(DESs) are a new class of green solvents analogous to ionic liquids due to their biodegradable capacity and low cost. However, the direct extractive desulfurization of diesel oil by DESs cannot meet the government’s standard. In this work, amphiphilic polyoxometalates were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and mass spectrometry.The oxidative desulfurization results showed that benzothiophene(BT) could be completely removed by employing a [(CH)P(CH)]PMoO, DES(ChCl/2 Ac) and HOsystem. It was also found that the organic cation of catalysts played a positive role in oxidative desulfurization. The reaction conditions, such as reaction temperature and time, the amount of catalyst and DES and HO/S(O/S) molar ratio, were optimized. Different sulfides were tested to determine the desulfurization selectivity of the optimal reaction system, and it was found that 97.2% of dibenzothiophene(DBT) could be removed followed by 80.7% of 4-MDBT and 76.0% of 4,6-DMDBT. After reaction, the IR spectra showed that the catalyst [(CH)P(CH)]PMoOwas stable during the reaction process and the oxidative product was dibenzothiophene sulfone(DBTO). Furthermore, the catalyst can be regenerated and recycled for four runs with little loss of activity.

文摘Dawson-type phosphotungstic polyoxometalate α/β-K6P2W18O62·10H2O(P2W18) was synthesized and its inhibitory effect on the mushroom tyrosinase was investigated. It could inhibit diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase as an irreversible inhibitor. When the concentration of the enzyme reached 0.0176 mg/mL, the concentration of P2W18 leading to 50% activity lost(IC50) was 0.05 mmol/L for monophenolase and 0.64 mmol/L for diphenolase. In addition, the antimicrobial activity of P2W18 was evaluated by zone of inhibition test. The results show that P2W18 possesses effective antimicrobial ability against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, yeast, especially Escherichia coli and yeast.
