3-Substituted oxetanes are valuable monomers for modern ring-opening polymerizations. A new solid-state oxidizer, 3,3-dinitratooxetane (C3H4N2O7), which has an oxygen content of 62.2% was synthesized by the addition of N2O5 to oxetan-3-one. Monoclinic single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction (ρ 1.80 g cm-3) were obtained by recrystallization from dichloromethane. In addition, 3-nitratooxetane was prepared by an improved method and 3-nitrato-3-methyloxetane was synthesized for the first time. Theoretical calculations were computed by the EXPLO5 software and additionally sensitivities towards impact and friction were determined.The reaction of 2,4,6-tri(tert-butyl)phenyl vinyl phosphane with Piers' borane [HB(C6F5)2] gave the ethylene-bridged PH/B frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) system. It is a monomer at high temperature (>323 K), but exists as an associated 12-membered macrocyclic trimer below 273 K. The PH/B FLP splits dihydrogen and serves as a metal-free hydrogenation catalyst. It adds carbon dioxide. It serves as a PH/B template for the reduction of carbon monoxide by the HB(C6F5)2 borane to the formyl stage. The resulting six membered P/B/O containing heterocycle is opened upon treatment with pyridine and it reacts with benzaldehyde in a boron mediated Claisen-Tishchenko reaction.Recently, hydrogel-based conductive materials and their applications as smart wearable devices have been paid tremendous attention due to their high stretchability, flexibility, and excellent biocompatibility. Compared with single functional conductive hydrogels, multifunctional conductive hydrogels are more advantageous to match various demands for practical applications. This review focuses on multifunctional conductive hydrogels applied for smart wearable devices. Representative strategies for conduction of hydrogels are discussed firstly (1) electronic conduction based on the conductive fillers and (2) ionic conduction based on charged ions. Then, the common and intensive research on multiple functionalities of conductive hydrogels, such as mechanical properties, conductive and sensory properties, anti-freezing and moisturizing properties, and adhesion and self-healing properties is presented. The applications of multifunctional conductive hydrogels such as in human motion sensors, sensory skins, and personal healthcare diagnosis are provided in the third part. Finally, we offer our perspective on open challenges and future areas of interest for multifunctional conductive hydrogels used as smart wearable devices.Graphene aerogels possessing a three-dimensional (3D) porous netlike structure, good electrical conductivity and ultralow density have been widely regarded as a promising candidate for high-efficiency electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption. Herein, nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide/cobalt-zinc ferrite (NRGO/Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4) composite aerogels were synthesized through a solvothermal and subsequent hydrothermal self-assembly two-step method. The results of micromorphology analysis showed that the 3D networks were well constructed through the partial stacking of adjacent NRGO sheets, which were decorated with numerous Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 microspheres. The as-synthesized NRGO/Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 composite aerogels have a very low density (12.1-14.6 mg cm-3) and good compression recovery. Moreover, excellent EMW absorption performance could be achieved through facilely regulating the additive volume of ethylenediamine (i.e. nitrogen doping contents) and filler contents. Impressively, the composite aerogel with a doped nitrogen content of 2.5 wt% displayed the optimal minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of -66.8 dB in the X-band at a thickness of 2.6 mm and the broadest effective absorption bandwidth of 5.0 GHz under an ultrathin thickness of merely 1.6 mm. Meanwhile, the RLmin of NRGO/Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 composite aerogels below -20 dB could be reached in almost the whole tested thickness range (1.4-5.0 mm). Additionally, the potential EMW absorption mechanisms were revealed, which was mainly due to the unique 3D porous netlike structure, synergistic effects among conduction loss, magnetic resonance loss and polarization loss, as well as the balanced attenuation capacity and impedance matching. It was believed that this work provided an alternative way for fabricating strong mechanical graphene-based 3D magnetic/dielectric composites as light-weight and high-efficiency EMW absorbers.This work presents the first planar three-electrode electrochemical sensor comprising local gold leaf as the working electrode and printed, or hand-drawn, counter and reference electrodes, respectively. The gold leaf was mounted on a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) adhesive sheet (15 mm × 30 mm) and covered with a second PVC sheet printed with the counter and reference electrodes. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/fg-4592.html This sheet has a 3 mm circle and a 2 mm × 3 mm rectangle removed to expose the gold electrode area and electrical contacts, respectively. A third shorter insulating layer with a 10 mm circular hole was placed on top to delineate the sensing area of all electrodes. The sensor displayed expected performances in various modes of operation, such as cyclic voltammetry, square wave voltammetry and anodic stripping voltammetry. For the latter mode, the limit of detection of Pb(ii) was 3.2 μg L-1, compliant with regulation for drinking water (10 μg L-1 Pb(ii)). Although designed as a disposable unit, the electrode is effective for up to 200 cycles and applicable for multiple use. The gold leaf was modified by electrodeposition of the gold network and large nano-size gold particles which significantly enhanced the sensitivity of all voltametric sensing, giving lower limits of detection. For stripping voltammetry, the electroplating structure modification improved the simultaneous detection of lead and copper, with the copper response increasing 6-fold. The device has the capability of on-site identification of copper/lead bullets from gunshot residues within 6 min.Photocatalytic overall water splitting to simultaneously obtain abundant hydrogen and oxygen is still the mountain that stands in the way for the practical applications of hydrogen energy, in which composite semiconductor photocatalysts are critical for providing both electrons and holes to promote the following redox reaction. However, the interface between different components forms a deplete layer to hinder the charge transfer to a large extent. In order to enhance the charger transfer from an interface to the surface and promote the spatial separation of electron-hole pairs, a built-in electric field induced by a p-n heterojunction emerges as the best choice. As a touchstone, a p-n heterojunction of TiO2/BiOBr with a strong built-in electric field has been constructed, which presents a wide spectrum response owing to its interleaved band gaps after composition. The built-in electric field greatly enhances the separation and transportation of photogenerated carriers, resulting in fluorescence quenching due to the carrier recombination.
