Abstract:
Two inorganic acids decorating titanium-oxo clusters (PTCs), Ti6O4(OiPr)10(O3P-Phen)2(NO3)2 (PTC-251) and Ti6O4(OiPr)10(O3P-Phen)2(HSO4)2 (PTC-252) (H2O3P-Phen = phenylphosphinic acid) have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions. As a result of the labile coordination sites of the {Ti6P2} unit, nitrite and sulfate adopt different capping mode. Besides, they also present different space packing. The photocatalytic H2 evolution activities of these obtained PTCs have been studied, with sulfate decorating PTC-252 presenting a maximum H2 production rate up to 110.95 μmol·g-1·h-1.

Abstract:
Fe2AlB2 powder material was prepared by the direct reaction of iron, aluminum and boron powders in a tubular furnace. The effects of different Al contents, temperature and raw material pretreatment on the purity of product were studied. The mixed powder with the stoichiometric ratio of 1.5Al/2Fe/2B was processed by CIP (Cold Isostatic Pressing), and then calcined at 1150 ℃ for 120 min. The product containing a small amount of impurities is treated with alkaline solution to obtain high-purity Fe2AlB2 powder. ZrB2-Fe2AlB2 composite ceramic was successfully prepared at 1250 ℃ by hot pressing sintering. The density, hardness and fracture toughness were 96.2%, 22 ± 0.3 GPa and 5.78 ± 0.5 MPa·m1/2, respectively.

Abstract:
The present research paper presents the synthesis, characterization, biological and computational studies of 4-(benzylideneamino) benzoic acid derivatives (3a~3g). Derivatives 3a~3c displayed best antidiabetic potential with a glucose-lowering effect compared to the reference drug Glibenclamide. Biochemical parameters including plasma glucose, serum triglycerides, cholesterol, alanine amino transferase and aspartate amino transferase levels showed significant alterations in concentrations relative to the control. Similarly, the derivatives 3a, 3d and 3e displayed potent in vitro antibacterial potential. Molecular docking simulations delineated that the ligands and complexes were stabilized at the active site by electrostatic and hydrophobic forces, consistent with the corresponding experimental results. In silico study of the binding pattern predicted that the synthesized ligands, 3d and 3a could serve as a potential surrogate for hit-to-lead generation and the design of novel antibacterial drugs.

Abstract:
A coordination polymer formulated as [Mn(5-pncH2)2H2O] (1, 5-pncH3 = 5-phosphono-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid), was hydrothermally synthesized and magnetically characterized.

Abstract:
A novel Ca(II) coordination polymer, [CaL2(H2O)2]n (1, HL = 4-acetylphenoxyacetic acid) has been synthesized with 4-acetylphenoxyacetic acid, Ca(ClO4)2·4H2O and NaOH as raw materials. Complex 1 was characterized by elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The results show that the Ca(II) ion is eight-coordinated in a distorted triangular dodecahedral geometric configuration with six carboxylate O atoms of four L ligands and two O atoms of two coordinated water molecules. Complex 1 forms a one-dimensional chained structure by the bridging effect of carboxylate O atoms. The antitumor activity of HL ligand and complex 1 has also been investigated.

Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group C2/c with a = 15.373(5), b = 16.719(5), c = 19.406(6) Å, β = 106.995(5)°, V = 4770(2) Å3, C28H18CdN4O6, Mr = 618.86, Dc = 1.724 g/cm3, μ(Mo) = 0.971 mm–1, F(000) = 2480, Z = 8, the final R = 0.0391 and wR = 0.1044 for 4701 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that 1 exhibits a one-dimensional (1D) double-chain architecture, and the H-bond intersections link the 1D double-chain architecture into a 2D layer structure. TG analysis shows clear courses of weight loss, which corresponds to the decomposition of different ligands. We also study the luminescent properties of complex 1. In addition, to elucidate the essential electronic characters of this complex, theoretical calculation analysis was performed by the PBE0/LANL2DZ method in Gaussian 03 Program.

Abstract:
Two new complexes [Cu(AQTC)0.5(H2O)3]·3H2O}n (1, H4AQTC = anthraquinone-1, 4, 5, 8-tetracarboxylic acid) and Cu[(Py)2C(OH)2]2(H2AQTC)·2H2O (2, (Py)2CO = di-2-pyridyl ketone) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses and IR spectroscopy. X-ray crystallographic studies show that complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2/m and complex 2 in monoclinic space group P21/c. Complex 1 features a 1D chain structure by carboxyl oxygen atoms. Complex 2 displays a mononuclear structure and anions and cations are separated. What's interesting is that the ligand of H4AQTC with eight carboxyl oxygen atoms and two quinone oxygen atoms does not directly coordinate with metals, and only exist as a counter-anion in complex 2. Three-dimensional structures of two complexes are formed by intermolecular interactions. The thermogravimetric analyses of two complexes are investigated. The luminescent properties of complex 1 are investigated as well.

Abstract:
Electroreduction of CO2 to formic acid has attracted extensive attention, because it is a promising strategy to re-utilize CO2 and reduce greenhouse gas emissions that may favor the mitigation of energy and environment issues. Although great efforts have been made to tune the structure and composition of catalysts aiming to improve CO2 conversion efficiency, seldom studies have been focused on the support regulation. In this work, ordered, porous TiO2 nanotube arrays have been used as model support to study the impact of pore structure for CO2 electrochemical reduction. It has been revealed that Pd supported on TiO2 nanotube arrays substrate exhibits enhanced performance towards CO2 reduction, showing a higher formate Faradaic efficiency of 20% over than Pd supported on TiO2 film substrate. This study will shed new light on the design and synthesis of efficient catalysts by tuning the morphology of support for CO2 conversion.

Abstract:
Polymeric membranes with diverse structures have attracted much attention as new materials for nonlinear optical devices. In this report, a novel oligomer of poly (aromatic ether sulfone) (OAES) has been synthesized and characterized. The electronic structure as well as linear and nonlinear optical properties has been studied by density function theory. The effect for general nonlinear optical polarizability of various condition has been further researched such as absence of side chains and introduction of phenyl substituent on side chains. The static and frequency-dependent hyperpolarizabilities of OAES and its derivatives have been calculated. This work interprets an efficient adjustment for the frequency response and the intensity of nonlinear optical polarizability can be achieved by regulating the structure of system, which provides a new potential for the application of oligomeric materials on nonlinear optical field.

Abstract:
p-block metal composite oxides Sr1.36Sb2O6 and Sr2Sb2O7 synthesized by a hydrothermal method as photocatalysts in the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride under UV light irradiation have been extensively studied. The effects of synthesis conditions on the photocatalytic activity were discussed. The Sr1.36Sb2O6-100 ℃-24 h-5 and Sr2Sb2O7-150℃-24 h-2 samples prepared under optimal conditions exhibited remarkably different photocatalytic activities. The essential factors influencing the difference of photocatalytic performance were revealed. The results showed that the different photocatalytic activities observed for Sr1.36Sb2O6 and Sr2Sb2O7 could be attributed to their different electronic and crystal structures. Our work will provide a new perspective for the screening and design of p-block metal composite oxide photocatalysts to enhance the removal of organic pollutants in the environment.
