Abstract:
Porphyrins are an important large class of macro-cyclic compounds,and exist extensively in nature and living bodies.The unique chemical structure of porphyrins endows them with superior physical,chemical and optical properties that make them to have broad applications in many fields.However,free porphyrins have intrinsic limitations,e.g.,poor chemical stability,ir-reusability,processing difficulty and so on.These limitations hinder their applications greatly.The natural porphyrins usually coexisted with some specific natural macromolecules.Under certain conditions,porphyrins could fully exert their functions.Accordingly,many suitable materials have been developed to immobilize porphyrins and metalloporphyrins in order to overcome the defects of free porphyrins described above and expand their applications.In this review,the common carriers of porphyrins,the usual methods for immobilizing porphyrins,and the latest application of immobilized porphyrin compounds in catalysis,sensor,and so on have been summarized.The application prospectives of immobilized porphyrins is also presented.

Abstract:
In this work,we systematically studied the optoelectronic properties of four poly(3-butylthiophene)(P3BT) with different functional end-groups.The end-groups were found to be detrimental to the crystallization of P3BT.Nevertheless,the end-groups could modify the surface energy of P3BT and therefore achieve the tunable miscibility and film morphology of P3BT:PCBM blends.The solar cell devices based on these P3BTs with functional end-groups as donor materials have been fabricated and tested.We demonstrated that the allyl-terminated P3BT has relative higher crystallinity.And the appropriate miscibility of allylterminated P3BT and PCBM could lead to an ideal micro phase separation morphology of P3BT:PCBM in the active layer of solar cell device.The corresponding photovoltaic device performance could reach 3.1% which is 35% higher than that of conventional device using bromide-terminated P3BT.

Abstract:
Polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF)/acrylic rubber(ACM) blends with controlled blend compositions and crystallization conditions exhibit nice shape memory properties.In this work,we systematically investigated the electrical and thermal conductivity of the PVDF/ACM shape memory alloy by the incorporation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes(CNT).It was found that the CNTs are homogeneously dispersed in the polymer matrix.The incorporation of CNTs significantly enhances both the electrical and thermal conductivity of the nanocomposites.The electrical conductivity of the nanocomposites with 4%(mass fraction) CNTs reaches 5000 Ω/square and the thermal conductivity is 0.157 W/(m·K) at 25℃.

Abstract:
The phase diagram of surface phase separation in poly(methyl methacrylate)/poly(styrene-coacrylonitrile)(PMMA/SAN) blend film with thickness of 130 nm was obtained by in-situ atomic force microscopy(AFM).The results show that the blend film has a lower critical system temperature(LCST) compared with the reported ex-situ phase diagram.The critical phase separation temperature was found to increase and the observed composition symmetry in ex-situ phase diagram was no longer existed.The difference between in-situ and ex-situ results can be ascribed to the thinner thickness of the film,different heat history and stronger substrate effect.

Abstract:
A new catalytic system was applied to the oxidation reactions involved in the synthesis of 2,6-diamino-3,5-dinitropyrazine-1-oxide(LLM-105),in which protonated peroxotungstate immobilized into the network of cross-linked chitosan with the superparamagnetic Fe3O4 core(Fe3O4/CS/HWO) was used as the catalyst.With H2O2 as the oxidant,good to excellent yields could be achieved with pyrazine,2,6-dimethoxypyrazine,2,6-dichloropyrazine and 2-chloro-6-methoxypyrazine as the substrates without addition of trifluoracetic acid.A representative procedure for the oxidation process is as following:to 30 mL of CH3CN containing substrate(10 mmol) and Fe3O4/CS/HWO(0.1 mmol,about 0.1 g),30% H2O2(5 mL) was added dropwisely by 5 times at 60℃ temperature.The oxidation process was monitored by TLC.Product could be obtained with a yield ranging from 60% to 73%.Theoretical studies were also carried out with Gaussian 03 to evaluate the oxidation process.All of the calculated data matched well with the experimental results.

Abstract:
An improved method for the preparation of N-toluenesulfonyl benzodiazepine-5-ketone,a key intermediate used for conivaptan hydrochloride synthesis,was developed.The starting materials are p-toluene sulfonyl chloride and methyl anthranilate,and the synthesis procedure includes amidation,imide and halogenated hydrocarbon condensation,Bechmmann cyclization,hydrolysis and decarboxylation,etc.In the synthesis process,the amount of the toxic solvent pyridine is reduced;sodium hydride,which is explosive in water,is replaced by potassium tert-butyl alcohol;and methyl tetrahydrofuran,which is commercially available and easily recovered,is used as the solvent instead of butanone.The total yield of the target compound increases from 55% to 63%,and the purity is 99% or more.The obtained compound was confirmed by the melting point measurement and 1H NMR spectroscopy.The yield of this intermediate and its quality have been significantly improved,and the yield of the conivaptan hydrochloride is thereby greatly increased.

Abstract:
Polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan/nano-hydroxyapatite(PVA/CS/n-HA) hydrogel was prepared via the chem-physical method.Effects of PVA content and the mass fraction of glutaraldehyde(GA) on the performance of the composite material were studied by testing its moisture content,tensile strength,infrared spectroscopy and TG spectrum.The results showed that when the mass ratio of PVA and CS+n-HA is 5:1,and the mass fraction of GA is 2%,the composite hydrogel material has an excellent integrated performance.The moisture content,tensile strength,and elongation breakage are 82.0%,2.14 MPa and 343.26%,respectively.Simultaneous thermal analysis(STA) results show that there is only water evaporation from 25℃ to 140℃,and the material starts to decompose at 360℃,suggesting that the material has a good thermal stability.Infrared analysis results show that there is a cross-linking reaction between CS and GA.

Abstract:
A self-fabricated wall-jet/thin-layer electrochemical detector(ECD) was developed by combining the classical wall-jet and thin-layer ECD,which is coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography for simultaneous determination of five priority pollutants of phenols.The results show that both the response current and the noise increase with the increase of electrode area,thus an appropriate electrode area is important for obtaining a good analytical performance at enhanced signal-to-noise ratio(S/N).By using SHIM-PACK VP-ODS(150 mm×4.6 mm) column,mobile phase of a mixture of methanol and 0.1 mol/L PBS(pH=7.5)(volume ratio is 40:60),oven temperature:40℃,flow rate:1 mL/min,injection volume:20 μL,detection potential:1.0 V,detection wavelength:220 nm,the limits of detection without preconcentration are all lower than 1.0 μg/L(S/N=3) for p-nitrophenol,phenol,m-cresol,2,4-dichlorophenol and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol,which are lower than those obtained with a UV detector and a commercial electrochemical detector.The method has been tested using river water samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract:
The paper compared the characteristics of the hair samples from heroin and methamphetamineabusers based on the distribution characteristics of the two categories of drugs and their metabolists in hair.Analytes from heroin abuser's hair were collected in methanol by ultrasonication followed by liquid extraction at desirable pH.The methanol was evaporated to dryness and the residue was derivatized and detected by GC/MS.Hair from methamphetamine users was digested under alkali condition followed directly by small volume extraction in the solution.The analytes was derivatized in the extracted solution and detected by GC/MS.Two methods were validated by spiking standards in blank hair.The results show that the detection limits are 3 μg/g hair for 3 opioids(morphine,codeine and 6-monoacetyl morphine) with RSD of 2.5%~9.6%(n=5) and 0.05 μg/g hair for 4 amphetamines(amphetamine,methamphetamine,3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) with RSD of 5%~14%(n=5),respectively.

Abstract:
The interaction between fish sperm DNA(fsDNA) and baicalein(BAI) in NaAc-HAc buffer(pH=3.22) was investigated by using cyclic voltammetry,square wave voltammetry,fluorescence spectroscopy,ultraviolet visible spectroscopy and viscosity measurement.Their interaction is in a groove binding mode and the complex has a higher electrical activity.The peak current of BAI is enhanced significantly because fsDNA provides a low polar hydrophobic environment.The enhanced peak current is in proportional to the concentration of fsDNA in the range of 7.0×10-8~7.0×10-6 g/mL.Based on this observstion,a new method with a detection limits at 4.1×10-8 g/mL for the determination of nucleic acids is established.
