RESUMO
Exploiting a photocatalyst with high stability and excellent activity for Cr(VI) reduction under mild conditions is crucial yet challenging. Herein, the rigid aromatic multicarboxylate ligand with chromophore anthracene was selected to coordinate with multivalent metal ion manganese and to obtain a stable two-dimensional (2D) Mn-based metal-organic framework (MOF), LCUH-120, which can efficiently and quickly convert Cr(VI) into Cr(III) under light without the need for any additional photosensitizer. The efficient photosensitive anthracene group serves as a photosensitizer center and multivalent Mn(II) ion as a photocatalyst center in LCUH-120, and the conversion of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) can be realized completely in just 40 min. Specifically, the rate constant (k) and reduction rate of the Cr(VI) photocatalytic reaction can be high up to 0.134 min-1 and 2.50 mgCr(VI) g-1cata min-1 in an acidic environment (pH = 2), respectively. Compared to our previously reported three-dimensional (3D) Sm-MOF, LCUH-120 exhibits a significantly higher catalytic reaction rate, which might be ascribed to the fact that the photocatalyst center Mn node can improve the rate of electron transfer and promote the separation of holes and photogenerated electrons. In an acidic environment, the reaction mechanism can be verified through various contrast experiments and theoretical simulations.
RESUMO
The field of anion supramolecular chemistry has received more and more attention in recent years. Anions with diverse types and geometries have been widely used for the synthesis of ionic spin crossover (SCO) complexes. This review is devoted to anion effects on the molecular, supramolecular structures and magnetic properties of discrete SCO compounds. Firstly, typical anions used in the synthesis of these compounds are briefly summarized according to their various geometries. This is followed by a collection of representative examples of anion-based SCO compounds, whose SCO properties are analyzed in terms of supramolecular interactions, geometry and charge of anions. In the third part, anion effects on SCO complexes of different kinds of metal centers and ligands are outlined and finally remarks on the synthesis new type of ionic SCO complexes in the future are described.
RESUMO
Mercurial sphygmomanometer is widely applied to NIBP as the basic medical equipment in hospitals, but it is dangerous. With the world-wide limit of mercurial sphygmomanometers, it is inevitable that the mercurial sphygmomanometers would be eliminated. At the same time, according to the requirement of the medical staff and for the technical side of medical engineering, we should set up a claim for the mercurial sphygmomanometers' substitute products.
