To address the challenges(high cost, low efficiency, less sustainability, etc.) of existing petroleum-based CO_(2) absorbents, herein, a class of efficient and sustainable lignin-based absorbents were resoundingly prepared by grafting the active amine group on a lignin derived compound vanillin and alkali lignin. The results demonstrated that vanillin modified by acrylamide achieved the excellent absorption capacity among the three absorbents, whose ability was 0.114 g CO_(2) per gram of absorbent under 25 ℃ and 100 kPa. In addition, the absorbent retained stable absorbability of CO_(2) after 6 cycles.The absorbing capacity of the absorbent formed by the coupling of vanillin and acrylamide to CO_(2) was much greater than their own(i.e. 0 g CO_(2) ·g^(-1)vanillin, 0.01 g CO_(2) ·g^(-1) acrylamide, respectively).Detailed information revealed the multi-site synergistic absorption mechanism, in which CO_(2) has C and O double interactions with the amide group of the absorbent, and single interaction with the hydroxyl oxygen on the benzene ring of the absorbent. The absorption capacity of modified lignin for CO_(2) is as high as 0.12 g CO_(2) per gram of absorbent, which is comparable with that of model compound vanillin.This work not only provides a new idea for the design of bio-absorbents for CO_(2) capture, but explores the application potential of lignin-based materials.展开更多

In addition, the absorbent retained stable absorbability of CO_(2) after 6 cycles.The absorbing capacity of the absorbent formed by the coupling of vanillin and acrylamide to CO_(2) was much greater than their own(i.e. 0 g CO_(2) ·g^(-1)vanillin, 0.01 g CO_(2) ·g^(-1) acrylamide, respectively).Detailed information revealed the multi-site synergistic absorption mechanism, in which CO_(2) has C and O double interactions with the amide group of the absorbent, and single interaction with the hydroxyl oxygen on the benzene ring of the absorbent. The absorption capacity of modified lignin for CO_(2) is as high as 0.12 g CO_(2) per gram of absorbent, which is comparable with that of model compound vanillin.This work not only provides a new idea for the design of bio-absorbents for CO_(2) capture, but explores the application potential of lignin-based materials.

文摘Three new amide derivatives(alteralkaloids A-C,1-3)and three known alkaloids(4-6)were afforded after phytochemical investigation of fungus Alternaria brassicicola.The structures of these compounds were confirmed by NMR spectroscopic and HRESIMS data.Furthermore,the absolute configuration of 1 was determined using the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.Compounds 1-3 belong to a class of amide derivatives that have not been found in nature before,sharing the same characteristic signals of the butyl moiety and amide group.These isolated compounds mentioned above were tested for the cytotoxic activity.
文摘We review the use of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)spectroscopy to assess the exchange of amide protons for deuterons(HDX)in efforts to understand how high concentration of cosolutes,especially macromolecules,affect the equilibrium thermodynamics of protein stability.HDX NMR is the only method that can routinely provide such data at the level of individual amino acids.We begin by discussing the properties of the protein systems required to yield equilibrium thermodynamic data and then review publications using osmolytes,sugars,denaturants,synthetic polymers,proteins,cytoplasm and in cells.

文摘The electrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction in aqueous solution mainly involves bond cleavage and formation between C,H and O,and it is highly desirable to expand the bond formation reaction of C with other atoms to obtain novel and valuable chemicals.The electrochemical synthesis of N-containing organic chemicals in electrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction via introducing N sources is an effective strategy to expand the product scope,since chemicals con-taining C–N bonds(e.g.amides and amines)are important reactants/products for medicine,agriculture and in-dustry.This article focuses on the research progress of C–N coupling from CO_(2) and inorganic nitrogenous species in aqueous solution.Firstly,the reaction pathways related to the reaction intermediates for urea,formamide,acetamide,methylamine and ethylamine are highlighted.Then,the electrocatalytic performance of different catalysts for these several N-containing products are summarized and classified.Finally,the challenges and op-portunities are analyzed,aiming to provide general insights into future research directions for electrocatalytic C–N coupling.
