Abstract:
A mild and highly efficient hydrothermal synthesis method for uniform magnesium silicate nanotubes was developed from normal Mg(OH)2 and SiO2 powders with the assistance of potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide. The samples were characterized by XRD, TEM, IR, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The synthetic process was studied by XRD, TEM, etc. The results indicate that the eutectic solution of potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide offers higher dissolvability for the reactants and benefits the reaction between the reactants. This composite-hydroxide-assisted approach is a mild and highly efficient procedure for the synthesis of high quality magnesium silicate nanotubes at 250 ℃ in a short duration of 36 hours, while it needs over 7 days at 250 ℃ for traditional hydrothermal method.

Abstract:
Silica antireflective coatings modified by hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) were deposited on clean substrates by sol-gel process. The effects of HMDS on the contamination resistant capability and laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of coatings were investigated. With the modified sol the resultant coatings were hydrophobic and the contact angle for water increased with the increasing amount of HMDS in the reaction mixture. The antireflective properties were retained after HMDS-treatment and the transmission maximum values were above 99%. The introduction of HMDS into silica sols had also increased the LIDT of coatings from 24.3 J·cm-2 to 37 J·cm-2 when the molar ratio of HMDS to TEOS was 0.05:1. After some of the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the SiO2 particle were replaced by methyl groups, from which the SiO2 particle gained a water-repellent surface, the stability of coatings in vacuum were increased. The peak transmittance of modified sample decreased only 0.25% after conserved in vacuum circumstance for 168 hours, in contrast to 2% reduction for the unmodified sample. At the same time, the LIDT of modified coating retained a high LIDT of 30.8 J·cm-2.

Abstract:
In this paper, the precursor hydrazine titanium succinic acid was first prepared by pH value controlled precipitation method, after that, the titanium black pigment, namely, black titanium suboxides with large surface area were prepared by thermal decomposing the precursor. The black titanium suboxides were characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, Energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS),X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), high resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM), nitrogen sorption analysis, laser particle size analyzer, and color i5 colorimeter spectrophotometer. The composition of black titanium suboxides was determined as 2TiO2·Ti2O3, and its surface area is 53.854 4 m2·g-1. The influences of acid source, the amount of hydrazine hydrate, acid/TiCl3 ratio, reaction time, pH, NaOH concentration, the calcination temperature and various reaction parameters on the particle size, the distribution uniformity and blackness of black titanium suboxides were discussed. The composition of the precursor with its molecular formula as [Ti(C4H4O4)2]0.85·2Ti2O3·6N2H4·3H2O was analyzed by Elemental analyzer and plasma spectrometer. From these data, the formation mechanism of the black titanium suboxides was deduced. These provide an important basis for the preparation of novel mixed-valence material black titanium suboxides.

Abstract:
To solve the main problems encountered in the lithium-sulfur battery research and practical application, a simple and effective hydrothermal reduction of graphene oxide was employed to encapsulate commercial carbon nanotube-sulfur (CNT-S) nanocomposite in this study, then an effective type of graphene coated CNT-S nanostructure was formed. The polysulphide anions diffusion phenomenon was effectively restrained by the graphene coating structure. The nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. The results indicated that elemental sulfur was uniformly distributed across the CNT, and a layer of graphene coated on the surface of CNT-S nanocomposite. The electrochemical test results showed that the graphene coating nanostructure obviously improved the lithium-sulfur battery performance of the CNT-S nanocomposite.

Abstract:
High-quality oil-soluble CuInS2/ZnS core/shell quantum dots (QDs) have been synthesized successfully using a non-hot-injection method. The as-prepared QDs exhibits tunable photoluminescence (PL) emission (PL peak, 550~800 nm) with a maximum PL quantum yield (QY) up to 80%. Furthermore, in this study, we explored further the water transfer of oil-soluble CuInS2/ZnS QDs by using temperature-sensitive poly(N-isopropylacryla-mide-co-Acrylamide-co-Octadecylacrylate) (P(NIPA-co-AAm-co-ODA)) micelle. The QDs-loaded micelle not only shows favorable PL properties, but also maintains the initial sensitive thermal responsibility. These results confirm the promising potential of cadmium-free CuInS2/ZnS QDs as a fluorescent probe for the biological imaging of micelle.

Abstract:
Two ion-pair compounds with the formula of (BMIB)[(Ni(mnt)2]2 (1) and (BMIO)[(Ni(mnt)2]2 (2) (mnt=maleonitrile dithiolate, BMIB=1,4-bis(1-methylimidazolium)butane, BMIO=1,8-bis(1-methylimidazolium)octane) were synthesized and characterized structurally. In 1, the [Ni(mnt)2]-form a trimer anions and a mixed column, respectively. The packing structures of 2 are different from 1, the cations and the anions form the irregular alignments. Compound 1 and 2 show remarkable near-IR absorption behavior in the region of 861 and 857 nm respectively. The electrochemical behaviors in the solid state depend on the hydrocarbon chain length in the countercation moiety. Investigations of variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility indicated that 1 shows weak paramagnetic feature from 2 to 400 K; the magnetic susceptibility data were fit to the Curie-Weiss equation. 2 is a spin gap system but its magnetic behavior does not follow the Blaney-Bowers spin dimer model.

Abstract:
Two isostructural heteronuclear complexes [Fe(phen)3]2[FeLn(H2O)(tiron)3]·6H2O (Ln=Ho (1) and Yb (2)), Na2H2tiron=disodium 4,5-dihydro-xybenzene-1,3-disulfonate) were self-assembly synthesized via hydrothermal reaction. The complexes crystallized in the cubic system, space group P213. In [FeLn(H2O)(tiron)3]6-unit was revealed that the Fe3+ ion is in a FeO6 distorted trigonal anti-prism coordination polyhedron completed by six phenolate O atoms from three tiron4-ligands, and Ln3+ in a LnO7 distorted monocapped trigonal anti-prism coordination polyhedron completed by three phenolate μ2-O atoms and three O atoms from sulfonate groups of three ligands and one O atom from coordinated water. The [Fe(phen)3]3+ cations and [FeCe(tiron)3]6-anions via π-π interaction between phen ligands and electric attraction between cations and anions was assembled into multi-dimensional supramolecule. The magnetic properties of the complexes were been determined in the temperature range 2~300 K, indicating that the antiferromagnetic interaction between the central Ln(Ⅲ)-Fe(Ⅲ) ions.

Abstract:
Sulfur-doped carbon microspheres (SCMSs) with mean size of about 4 μm were prepared successfully by a simple one-step sulfur-assisted hydrothermal carbonization (ASHTC) method. Soluble starch was used as carbon precursor and sublime sulfur as sulfur source. The as-prepared SCMSs were characterized systematically by means of SEM, TEM, XRD, N2 absorption-desorption isotherms, FTIR, XPS, and solid NMR. The existing forms of sulfur in SCMSs were also discussed. It was found that monodispersed SCMSs with high output could be obtained under high starch concentration (1.0 g·mL-1) and sulfur atoms could be introduced into carbon networks easily, indicating that the ASHTC is a powerful method for SCMS synthesis. For comparison, carbon microspheres (CMSs) were synthesized by conventional hydrothermal carbonization of starch in the absence of sulfur under the same hydrothermal conditions. Experimental results show that the as-synthesized SCMSs exhibit much higher specific surface area than that of CMSs. The reason of the increase of surface area of SCMSs may be due to the structural and chemical defects resulted from the sulfur doping. The chemical defects come from the-S-S-,-S-,-SO2-and-SO-groups, while the structural defects result from the substitution of graphite hexatomic-rings by thiophene five-membered rings in SCMSs.

Abstract:
Ba0.98Bi0.02(Ti0.9Zr0.1)1-xCuxO3(x=0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03) were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction methods. The effect of Bi3+ as donor doping in A-site and Cu2+ as acceptor doping in B-site on structure and dielectric properties were investigated by XRD, LCR and other techniques. The results revealed that when x=0.03, the second phase occurred. The order of the defect dipoles stability from low to high is [2BiBa·+VBa"]、[2BiBa·+CuTi/Zr"], [CuTi/Zr"+Vo··] by GULP. Combined with the experiments, the analysis shown that the relaxation degree were closely related to the variety of defect dipoles, when x=0.01, the defect dipoles [2BiBa·+CuTi/Zr"] were dominant. With increasing Cu2+ content, the dielectric constants increased, and the dielectric constants were inversely proportional to the bond valance sum of B-site and proportional to the varieties of octahedral BO6 volume.

Abstract:
The influence of NaBF4 on graphite anode for Li-ion battery was studied by adding it into the process of slurry preparation with the methods of galvanostatic charge-discharge, CV, EIS, SEM and EDS. The results showed that: when the amount of NaBF4 was 2%, not only the reversible capacity at the initial cycle was improved, but also the efficiency. The performances of self-discharge and the cycle stability were all both improved. And its self-discharge rate calculated by capacity was 0.87%·d-1, reduced15% than it without NaBF4. The results of CV, EDS and SEM tests both suggested that, NaBF4 involved in the process of SEI formation, changing its components and morphology.

Abstract:
In order to further promote the photocatalytic activity of polyhedral titanium dioxide with special exposed facets, the core-shell and hollow structured polyhedral titanium dioxide were controllably prepared by a facile hydrothermal method. The structure, morphology and photocatalytic property of core-shell and hollow structured TiO2 were characterized by means of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-Vis absorption spectra measurement, respectively. SEM and TEM observations showed that as-resulting two kinds of TiO2 have a tunnel-like hollow, polyhedral shell-layer structure with opened (001)/(001) surface planes. The formation of the two kinds of novel structures might be due to the effect of both complexing and weak acid etching. The photodegradation to Methylene Blue of the as-resulting TiO2 were tested in the presence of peroxide. The results showed that the photocatalytic activity of the resulting two kinds of TiO2 structures could be promoted even higher with the additive of preoxide, which can be ascribed to their large specific surfaces, and the fact that the·OH provided by peroxide can efficiently separate e-/h+ pairs on the surface of titanium dioxide.

Reactions of 5-amino-tetrazole (HATz) and 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid (HPyc) with ZnSO4·7H2O or Zn(NO3)2·6H2O under N,N'-dimethylformamide (DMF) solvothermal condition, yielded two new Zn(Ⅱ) coordination polymers of {[(CH3)2NH2]·[Zn(ATz)(SO4)]}n (1) and {[Zn(ATz)(Pyc)]·0.5DMF}n (2), respectively, which have been structurally characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results of structural analysis reveal that complex 1 possesses an 2D undulated layer structure, in which 2D anion (4,4) layer of [Zn(ATz)(SO4)]nn-and [(CH3)2NH2]+ cations are assembled together via strong hydrogen bonding interactions. A remarkable feature of complex 2 is a two-fold interpenetrating 3D microporous metal-organic framework with 4-connected diamondoid topology, in which free DMF molecules locate in the channels. Luminescent properties studies indicate that complexes 1 and 2 exhibit intense fluorescent emissions at λmax=445 nm and 458 nm when excited at 350 nm, respectively, in the solid state at room temperature. CCDC: 921342, 1; 921343, 2.

Abstract:
Two Schiff Bases (L1 and L2) and their palladium complexes (1 and 2) were prepared by the condensation of 2,6-diisopropylaniline with benzaldehyde and 2,4-dichlorobenzaldehyde, respectively, and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compared with known structures of Schiff base (L1) and its palladium complex (1), we discovered that the introduction of electro-withdrawing groups of L2 and complex 2 have effects on antimicrobial and catalytic activities. The antimicrobial activities results indicated that the ligands and their complexes perform good activities, and the complexes have better effect than the ligands, and the electro-withdrawing groups will effectively improve the activities. The Heck reactions of bromobenzene with acrylic acid catalyzed by complex 1 and 2 have also been studied. We have investigated the effect of different factors (bases, temperature and solvent) on reaction and finally determined the optimum reaction condition. The catalytic activities results shown that the electro-withdrawing groups of ligands will increase the steric effect of 1 and 2, and reducing their activities. CCDC: 882286,L1; 882287, 2; 222403, 1; 882289, 2.

Abstract:
In this paper, a novel Mn-Ce mixed-metal complex [Mn3Ce2(O)5(O2CPh)9(CH3OH)3]·2CH3CN (1·2CH3CN, HO2CPh is benzoic acid) has been synthesized using the synthetic method of oxidation Mn2+ ions by (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6. The obtained complex were fully characterized by X-ray single crystal structural diffraction, IR, elemental analysis, and magnetic investigation. The structure analysis indicates that the complex crystallizes in triclinic system, P1 space group. In the complex, two Mn4+ ions, two Ce4+ ions and four bridging μ3-O atoms comprise an irregular cubane which is further linked to the other Mn3+ ion by another μ3-O atom. There are no hydrogen bonds but slightly strong π-π stacking interactions between clusters in the crystal cell. Magnetic investigation shows that weak ferromagnetic interactions between Mn ions are present within the cluster, and the values of the spin ground state S and magnetic anisotropy are 5 and-0.31 cm-1, respectively. The complex do not possess frequency-dependent on alternating-current magnetic susceptibilities. CCDC: 912993.

Abstract:
Li4Ti5O12/graphene nanocomposite was synthesized using thermally exfoliated graphene with a three-dimensional continuous nanoporous structure as the matrix. The precursors were introduced into the interior nanopores of thermally exfoliated graphene by the ethanol evaporation method. After heat treatment, Li4Ti5O12 nanoparticles were formed in situ in the nanopores of thermally exfoliated graphene. As an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, the three-dimensional continuous structure of thermally exfoliated graphene ensures sufficient contact between Li4Ti5O12 and graphene during the long cycling. Consequently, the nanocomposite shows superior cyclic stability. The capacity retention is still as high as 94% after 5 000 cycles at 5C.

It adopts the (3,4)-c net of fof (sqc 1575) topology, possesses very large solvent accessible pore volume which reaches 72.8% of the unit cell volume. After removal of the solvent molecules, the desolvated 1a exhibits permanent porosity verified by an N2 sorption isotherm with a Langmuir surface area of 2844 m2·g-1 and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of 1 852 m2·g-1. It displays significant uptake of gases (H2, CO2, CH4, C2H2) and relatively high adsorption enthalpies.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that both the crystals belong to monoclinic,space group C2/c. The structure and property of complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, thermal analyses, IR spectra and Fluorescence. The single crystal structures show that the two complexes are isomorphic and have zero-dimensional structures and hydrogen bonds result in three-dimensional supramolecular structures. the coordination number of central ion Ln(Ⅲ) is nine.

Metal ions have all octahedral geometry coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms from two MPA-ligands, two oxygen atoms from two H2O molecules.

Abstract:
The complexation of α,α',δ,δ'-tetramethylcucurbit[6]uril (TMeQ[6]) complexes with transition-metal ions was studied by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The results reveal that this water-soluble cage-type compound shows very high selectivity for Pb2+ and Cd2+, while it is a masking compound for other transition-metal ions, particularly for Fe3+, Co2+, Zn2+, and Cr3+, due to a sharp decrease in the DPV peak current of these metal ions in the presence of TMeQ[6]. Binding constants were determined from voltammetric data. The Pb2+ and Cd2+ cations display a high binding affinity for TMeQ[6] (KPb2+=2.12×109 L2·mol-2, KCd2+=2.10×109 L2·mol-2) and form 2:1 nM2+/nTMeQ[6] complexes. The crystal structure of TMeQ[6]-Pb2+ indicates a 2:1 (nM2+/nTMeQ[6]) complex in the solid state, which is consistent with the results in solution. CCDC: 723280.

Abstract:
Two new V(V) complexes, [VOL1(C2H5O)]2(1) (H2L1=2-hydroxyacetophenone salicyloylhydrazone) and [VOL2(i-C3H7O)](2) (H2L2=salicylaldehyde salicyloylhydrazone) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV and X-Ray diffraction. Complex 1 reveals a centrosymmetric dimer, in which the two vanadium centers are bridged by phenolic oxygen atoms. Each vanadium(V) in 1 exhibits a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. While complex 2 is a mononuclear structure, in which vanadium(V) has a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. Complex 2 forms an infinite 1D chain-like supramolecular structure by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The electrochemical property for complex 2 was studied with an electrochemical analyzer. CCDC: 889674, 1; 889675, 2.

Abstract:
The self-assembly of 4-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)benzoic acid and CdCl2 under hydrothermal condition gave a new 1D cadmium coordination polymer, [Cd(imbz)(Cl)(H2O)]n (1) (imbz=4-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)benzoate), which has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TGA and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The imbz ligands link the Cd(Ⅱ) ions to form an infinite 1D zigzag chain, which the neighboring zigzag chains are further connected into a ladder chain through μ2-Cl ligands. The photoluminescence and lifetime of complex 1 in the solid state at room temperature have been studied. CCDC: 890931.

Two complexes constructed with 2,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid (2,4'-H2bpdc), 1,10-phenanthroline derivative ligands and metallic salts, namely, {[Co(2,4'-bpdc)(L)(H2O)]·H2O}n (1), [Mn(2,4'-bpdc)(L)(H2O)]n (2) (L=imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline) were synthesized under hydrothermal reaction. The complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, single crystal X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. Complex 1 has a 1D chain structure. Complex 2 forms a one-dimensional double-chain structure. They both further linked into a three-dimensional net structure via the intermolecular hydrogen bonds and aromatic π-π interactions.

Abstract:
A novel homochiral metal-organic framework is successfully constructed by an achiral ligand and 1D helical CuCN chains: [Cu4(CN)4(L)2]n (L=tetrakis(3-pyridyloxymethylene)methane) (1); the helixes assembled by copper(Ⅰ) and CN groups in situ generated are left-handed and transform the framework to chiral. This is the first example of chiral MOFs induced by flexible conformation of semigrid tetrahedral ligand. In addition, the chiral property of bulk products is confirmed by VCD spectra, the thermal stability and dielectric properties are also investigated. CCDC: 921046.

Abstract:
Bi2Ti2O7 thin films were prepared on the functionalized octadecyl-trichloro-silane (OTS)-covered fluorine-doped SnO2 (FTO) substrates by self-assembled monolayer (SAM) technique using Bi(NO3)3·5H2O and Ti(OC4H9)4 as raw materials. The test of the hydrophilicity of the substrate surface indicates that UV irradiation turns the surface of OTS-SAM film from hydrophobicity to hydrophilicity and realizes the functionalization. The composition, microstructure and microtopography of Bi2Ti2O7 thin films were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry (EDS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The results indicate that the as-prepared Bi2Ti2O7 thin films are homogeneous and dense when the concentration of the deposited solution is 0.02 mol·L-1. The dielectric constant is 153 at 100 kHz and the dielectric loss is 0.089 for a 0.4 μm-thick film annealed at 560 ℃ for 1 h.
